Donna Carson - Medical Director

Dr. Donna Carson is a Georgia native and grew up in Conyers on a small farm.

Donna knew very early on that she wanted to become a veterinarian one day and so she started working at the local veterinary hospital when she was 17 years old. She then attended the University of Georgia for her undergraduate studies from 1999-2002 and was so exceptional that she was accepted early into University of Georgia’s College of Veterinary Medicine.

Dr. Carson received her Doctorate of Veterinary Medicine from the University of Georgia in 2006 and immediately started practicing small animal medicine in Alpharetta, GA where she has spent most of her career.

Her interests include advanced internal medicine, animal behavior, and exotic animal medicine.

Dr. Carson and her husband, Matt, have two daughters, as well as numerous pets including Norman the golden doodle, Stuart the cat, parakeets, and countless fish. When not working, Donna enjoys coaching her daughters in fast-pitch softball and spending time at the horse barn. Dr. Carson is very excited to join the Mt Paran Animal Hospital team as the ‘Head Medical Director’ while the practice grows and services the community in the heart of Sandy Springs.
