Our Veterinarian
Beth Rhyne, DVM, CCRP, CVPP
Dr. Rhyne began serving the animals in the Asheville NC area in 2004, focusing heavily on exotics after attending veterinary school at the University of Illinois. Her passion for unusual pets began in childhood with her family’s rabbits and macaw parrots, and she has continued to expand her exotic veterinary medicine skills and knowledge by attending numerous AAV (Association of Avian Veterinarians) and Exotics conferences (ie, ICARE, UT’s Exotics Symposium), and maintaining several exotic association memberships. She enjoys helping Phoenix Landing (a local parrot rescue and education non-profit) when able, and working as the veterinarian for the WNC Nature Center (AZA accredited).
In her “spare” time, Dr. Rhyne can be found working managing the Asheville School of Film, or trying to keep up with her young son, husband, and dog and bird family!

Delilah Wilson, Veterinary Assistant
Delilah was born and raised in North Carolina and has lived all over the state. She spent most of her childhood near the coast outside of Wilmington, NC. She grew up with a small homestead of chickens and goats, as well as a plethora of animals she would bring home. Her love and fascination with animals only grew, and she began working in the animal care field in Asheville in 2012. She has been passionate about her work ever since, working for animal hospitals in NC and NY, volunteering with the WNC Nature Center, and now helping Dr. Rhyne with her mobile exotic practice. Delilah enjoys her life with her young son, her fiancé, her two dogs, and her flock of backyard chickens.
