When Dr. Rebecca is not at the hospital taking care of her patients you will find her at home with her husband Chad and daughter Emmaline and their extended family and pets including 4 rescued dogs, 9 horses and 3 cats. She is an avid equestrian and loves to train, ride and drive her horses. She recently acquired a Fell Pony and hopes to promote this rare breed in West Virginia.
