Dr. Rachel Coyer grew up in the small western Pennsylvania town of Slippery Rock. She attended Bucknell University (where she also had the opportunity to spend time in Ecuador studying Spanish and tropical ecology) and graduated with honors with a degree in cell biology/biochemistry.

After receiving her V.M.D. from the University of Pennsylvania, Rachel went to work as a small animal doctor in Maine but, missing her hometown, moved back to Pennsylvania to work nearer to her family. Though she loves her family, she realized she missed the Philadelphia area more and sought out a practice that would bring her closer to the city—and settled in to DAMC nicely in 2008.

Rachel lives with two cats (bratty Alba and shy Ellie) and her dog, Olive. In her free time, she loves to read and drink tea, enjoy outdoor activities, and dream of new travel adventures.
