Our Team
A Few Messages from Dr. Alice Groner...
I founded Woodland Animal Hospital in my hometown of Jefferson City Missouri in 1998. After over 25 years as a veterinarian, my passion continues to be helping pets live healthy, happy lives and I strive to make sure every visit to our practice feels welcoming and supportive—for both pets and their families.
In 2022, I was thrilled to welcome Dr. Allison Roller as a partner in the practice. Knowing that Woodland Animal Hospital is in the hands of such a wonderful and skilled veterinarian gives me great confidence as I begin to hand over the reins. One of the things I’m most proud of is the amazing team I get to work with every day. Our staff is not only incredibly skilled but also some of the most diligent, hardworking, and caring people you’ll ever meet. Together, we’re dedicated to providing the best possible care to the animals in our community, and it’s an honor to be a part of such a wonderful team.
I would also like to say a couple of words about my staff as they are far too humble to toot their own horn.

Dr. Allison Roller
Associate Veterinarian
I like working with this gal! She is everything you want in a veterinarian; smart, compassionate, empathetic, knowledgeable, diligent, caring. With her extensive experience and knowledge, I love that I have someone who can be a sounding board for problematic cases. Lastly, but just as importantly, she is really funny; a good giggle goes a long way in what may be a stressful day.

April Dyer
Office Manager
April is really far too skilled just to give her one title. Her patience and ability to multitask keeps our team running cohesively. She has an intuitive sense about animals and their behavior. She might have been born with this quality or she might have obtained it at a young age when her Grandpa would throw her on the back of a newly purchased horse to see if it was "broke to ride yet."

Deanna, Mercedes, Mary, and Lisa are who you want to be monitoring your animal while under anesthesia or hospitalized with an illness. Their ability to observe and detect the slightest abnormality in an animal allows Dr. Roller, Dr. Guhlincozzi and I to respond rapidly with what may be a life saving treatment. I can never underestimate what a vet nurse does for our beloved pets and neither should pet owners who entrust their pets care to us.
