Joan Tunnard, DVM, MPH
Certified Hospice and Palliative Care Veterinarian
Dr. Joan is originally from Columbus, NE. She attended Nebraska Wesleyan University and Kansas State University College of Veterinary Medicine. She has spent most of the last 15 years in Las Vegas practicing small animal medicine. Two years ago, she felt a calling to focus on end-of-life care for pets and became a Certified Hospice and Palliative Care Veterinarian through the IAAHPC in 2022. She is excited to be back home in Nebraska and to serve pets in the Omaha and Lincoln metro areas. She is joined by her husband, three children, dogs (Beignet and Rex), and cats (Sparky and Cookie).
Jaclyn Nelson, DVM

Dr. Jaclyn was born in Omaha, Nebraska and spent half of her childhood there before moving to Illinois. She received her undergraduate degree from the University of Nebraska-Lincoln and then attended the University of Illinois for veterinary school. She has one dog and would like to add a kitten soon! Her interests outside of veterinary medicine include playing and watching sports, cheering on the Huskers, hanging out with friends and family, and spending time on the lake or in the ocean.
