Our Veterinarians
Dr. Michael Meyers
Dr. Michael Meyers’ journey into veterinary medicine began in childhood—he was the kid who filled his bed with real dogs and cats instead of stuffed animals, and regularly brought home snakes to show his mom. He never wavered from his dream, eventually graduating from the University of Missouri (Undergrad, ’03) and the University of Illinois (DVM, ’07).
Throughout his career, Michael has worn nearly every hat in the industry, finding success across general practice, emergency medicine, and veterinary business ownership. While he loves the diverse challenges of medicine, his true calling today is professional development and a commitment to helping others reach new heights in their careers. Outside of work, Michael enjoys slowing down to spend quality time catching up with his family and childhood friends.
Dr. Katie Dean
Originally from southwest Missouri, I completed my undergraduate degree at
Missouri Southern State University while competing for the women’s track and
field team as a thrower. I obtained my Doctorate of Veterinary Medicine from
Colorado State University. My career interests include dermatology, internal
medicine, cardiology, and preventative medicine. In my free time, I enjoy hiking,
traveling, reading, and collecting vinyl records.
Dr. Cindy Church
Dr. Church grew up in Lee’s Summit and graduated from Lee’s Summit High School. She went on to attend and graduate from the University of Missouri with a bachelor’s degree in Human Environmental Science and received her veterinary undergraduate education from Rockhurst University. She completed her Doctor of Veterinary Medicine degree, graduating in 2002 from the University of Missouri. She began working for a small animal and exotic
practice in south Kansas City after graduation. She took a veterinarian position at Green Summit Animal Clinic, located in Lee’s Summit, in January of 2005, becoming the practice owner one year later, owning and operating the clinic for 15 years. She is now very excited to join Crown Veterinary Services to continue to practice the profession she so deeply loves. The relationships she has built over her time as a veterinarian in Lee’s Summit has only deepened her dedication and commitment to continue the care and welfare of patients and the community.
Dr. Church resides in Lee’s Summit with her husband and two daughters, two cats, and her really nice chihuahua. She enjoys spending time with her family and friends at the lake, watching her youngest daughter compete at swim meets, trail walking, and boating.
