Dr. Byerly
Dr. Carrie Byerly grew up on a farm north of Westfield, raising cattle, sheep, and hogs. She was a 10 year 4H member and very active in her church and community. After graduating in 2000, she attended Purdue where she was a member of the AAMB marching band. She also obtained her DVM from Purdue School of Veterinary Medicine in 2009.
Dr. Byerly and her husband, Nate, moved to Corydon, Iowa after graduation and she practiced large and small animal medicine. Injuries forced her to quit doing large animal work and she began to focus on small animal work. They moved back to Indiana in 2014 and settled in Kokomo. They have two beautiful children, Clara and Joe, as well as a golden retriever named Comet and a cat named Boots. In her spare time, Dr. Byerly enjoys gardening, camping, working out, reading, and music. She is very excited to be a member of the Northeast family and can’t wait to meet your furry kids!

Karen started working at the Northeast Animal Clinic in 2006, working seasonally during her summer and winter breaks while in college. She graduated from Purdue University in 2009 with a Bachelors in Animal Sciences with a minor in Behavior and Well-being. She interned at the Fort Wayne Children’s Zoo in the Aquatics Section. She primarily worked with the South African Black Footed Penguins and North American River Otters.

Jan Burke
My name is Jan Burke. I was born and lived in Colorado until I met my husband 35 years ago.
I am now firmly entrenched as a country gal in Indiana.
I have worked at Northeast Animal Clinic for the past 15 years. In fact, when I first came to Indiana, I observed with Dr. Maroney and Dr. Bailey who owned the practice before Dr. Lesa. I
graduated from Purdue University in 1985 and saw Dr. Terry and Dr. Lesa who were attending Purdue at the same time. At the end of my schooling, I completed the Registered Veterinary Certification tests in Colorado as well as Indiana. I worked at Purdue and another small animal clinic in Kokomo before
taking time away from work to raise and homeschool our three children.
In the animal realm, I have one outside cat who is really spoiled and earns his keep on our goat farm.
I enjoy making ice cream, soft cheese, and sharing milk from my goats with my lactose intolerant son
and grandson.
I enjoy working at Northeast Animal Clinic because I love the small, homey environment. I am currently
the primary surgical technician, and I also take care of the animals when they come in for appointments.
I love performing the hands-on procedures because it gives me more time with the animals and gives
me my “animal fix”.
