Our Doctors
Justin Busick, DVM, Practice Owner
|
Dr. Justin Busick grew up on a farm in southern Indiana where he often found himself in the company of cattle, horses and a few sheep working with his uncles on their cattle and grain operations as well as his own beef cattle herd. He raised sheep and pigs in the local 4H, competed in FFA and developed an interest in livestock production medicine and nutrition. This experience led him to pursue a veterinary degree so he could help other farmers develop programs to help improve herd production.
Dr. Busick has always had a desire to own his own veterinary hospital where he could lead others in helping the community by improving the lives of the animals we are given the opportunity to care for. In 2021, Dr. Busick started Hoof Beats Mobile Veterinary Services and provides mobile livestock medicine to Madison, Hamilton, Grant and other surrounding counties. In 2023, he took over ownership of Kem Road Animal Hospital where he hopes to continue to offer compassionate and skilled care to the pets in the practice. |
Veronica Busick, DVM, CCRT
|
Dr. Busick spent the first part of her childhood in Florida, where she could often be found feeding and caring for the wildlife that wandered into her backyard. Tortoises, iguanas and anoles all found a tasty snack and a safe place to rest until they wandered off. That desire to care for animals led her to pursue a degree in veterinary medicine. Dr. Busick graduated from Purdue University with a degree in veterinary medicine in 2008 then went on to receive her credentials as a Certified Canine Rehabilitation Therapist in 2009. After graduation, Dr. Busick took a job at a fast paced 24 hour animal hospital in Iowa where she gained much experience in wellness care as well as working with emergencies and everything in between. She has continued to hone her skills so she can help the clients she sees at Kem Road Animal Hospital by helping their pets live long and healthy lives. When Dr. Busick isn't working you can find her in her garden or chasing around the chickens, goats, sheep or cattle at her hobby farm.

Dr. Braxten McAdams, DVM
|
DDr. Braxten McAdams is originally from Frankton, Indiana. Animals were always fascinating to him growing up and his desire to care for them grew as he acquired experience working with, and befriending, every species he could. After school hours were spent volunteering at local dog shelters, caring for his goats and dogs at home, and even working at a baboon sanctuary. He knew veterinary medicine was his calling from an early age.
He pursued an expedited veterinary track and completed his prerequisite courses at Purdue University in just two years. Dr. McAdams then attended Ross University School of Veterinary Medicine and then his clinical year at the University of Florida. He worked in Florida for over a year, but began to miss the people and lifestyle his home state of Indiana provided. After experiencing the clients, patients, staff, and atmosphere our clinic had to offer, he decided to stay in Indiana and become a member of our veterinary team. If you’re visiting our office, feel free to schedule an appointment with Dr. McAdams! |
Christen Mora, DVM
|
Dr. Christen (Christy) Mora graduated from the Purdue University School of Veterinary Medicine in 2008. She grew up on a small family farm where her love for animals began. As she got older, she realized she also had a strong interest in medicine that eventually led her to become a veterinarian. As her career has progressed, Dr. Mora has come to realize that while yes she loves being with animals, she has developed a greater passion for helping the families that own the animals she cares for.
