Welcome to Patterson Dog & Cat Hospital

Dr. Glynes D. Graham, owner and primary veterinarian of Patterson Dog & Cat Hospital, received her DVM degree from Michigan State University in 1983. A lifelong Detroit resident, Dr. Graham was only 15 years old when she first became associated with Patterson Hospital through a part-time job filing records and cleaning cages. Pursuing a lifelong dream that began after earning her animal first-aid badge in the Girl Scouts, Dr. Graham learned the business from the ground up, receiving hands-on training from the staff in all aspects of veterinary work, from doing lab work, to preparing animals for surgery, to administering injections. After completing her education, she realized her dream when she purchased the hospital in 1985.

Dr. Amanda Lee, owner since October 31st, 2022, received her DVM degree from the University of California, Davis in 2013. She began working in the veterinary field in 2002 as a veterinary technician before deciding to go to vet school. Dr. Lee grew up in Saginaw, MI and then lived on the West Coast for 15 years. There, she also completed an internship training program for emergency medicine, general practice & surgery. Dr. Lee has worked as an emergency and general practice veterinarian for several years, including at Blue Pearl Veterinary Partners in Ann Arbor. She made the big move back home in 2017 and makes her home in West Village, Detroit. Dr. Lee especially enjoys preventative medicine and providing lifelong care to her patients.
