Meet Our Team
DR. SADE BARNES
Dr. Sade (pronounced SHAH-day) Barnes (she/her) is a veterinarian practicing in Decatur, Alabama. She is dedicated to creating a stress-free environment for her patients—which is crucial for both their wellbeing and successful treatment outcomes—and is pursuing her Fear Free Certification.
Dr. Barnes specializes in dermatology, geriatric care and preventive medicine. Her passion for geriatric care allows her to provide compassionate and comprehensive management for aging pets, addressing their unique needs with an integrative approach. She emphasizes preventive medicine to help pet parents maintain their pets' health and prevent potential issues before they arise.
Her journey into veterinary medicine was driven by her lifelong fascination with science and a deep appreciation for the human-animal bond. From an early age, Dr. Barnes was captivated by animals and their interactions with humans, which evolved into her commitment to understanding and addressing the complex medical needs of pets—especially given their inability to verbally communicate discomfort. The challenge of diagnosing and solving medical cases, combined with the rewarding experience of enhancing the lives of pets and their families, solidified her decision to pursue this career.
Dr. Barnes earned her Doctor of Veterinary Medicine (DVM) degree from Tuskegee University, known for its rigorous veterinary program and dedication to advancing animal health. Her education provided a solid foundation in veterinary science, preparing her for the diverse challenges of her profession.
After living and practicing veterinary medicine in Atlanta, Georgia for ten years, Dr. Barnes relocated to Decatur, Alabama, a year ago to be closer to her family.
