Bayside's Wonderful Doctors
Picture
Dr. Jennifer Trachtman
Veterinarian/Owner


Dr. Jen Trachtman could be seen trying to rescue worms after rainstorms as a seven-year-old in Rochester, New York and continues to be passionate about the well-being of animals. Always planning to become a veterinarian, but wanting to see some of the world first, she studied anthropology in Australia and worked in England. She received her veterinary degree from Tufts University (now the Cummings School of Veterinary Medicine) in 2000. After completing an intensive internship in emergency medicine, she has practiced locally in general practice ever since. Becoming a veterinarian has allowed her to advocate for animals while enhancing their bond with their families. While being dedicated to treating animals as whole individuals, she has become particularly interested in internal medicine, pain management, physical therapy, Fear-free care and client education.
As a result of Dr. Trachtman’s enduring commitment to patient care, she began Bayside Mobile Veterinary Care in 2011.  Bayside Mobile Veterinary Care eventually grew into Bayside Veterinary Care – a patient-oriented practice that provides comprehensive, fear-free care in the hospital or in pets’ homes.
When she is not with her veterinary family, Dr. Trachtman enjoys spending time near, on and in the water with her husband, their two wonderful children and five pets in Warren, Rhode Island.

"Dr. Jen is the most compassionate vet I have ever met!"
Michelle, mom of Felix

Dr. Meredith Taylor
Associate Veterinarian


Dr. Meredith Taylor, a native New Englander, grew up in Fall River, Massachusetts.  After earning a Bachelor’s degree in Biology from Boston College in 2011 she went right on to veterinary school.  She earned her veterinary degree from the University of Pennsylvania School of Veterinary Medicine in 2015.  Dr. Taylor, dedicated to learning, completed an intensive one year internship in emergency medicine, surgery, and internal medicine with Tufts VETS before she joined Bayside in the summer of 2016.
Having known Dr. Trachtman for years, Dr. Taylor was excited to join Bayside, a practice that focuses on Fear-free, comprehensive patient care.  Her calm, friendly demeanor; compassion and sharp attention to detail make Dr. Taylor the perfect fit for Bayside!  Like Dr. Trachtman, she is available for appointments in the hospital as well as on the road.
Dr. Taylor lives in Tiverton with her cat Angus and dog Gorten (the fisherman).  In her spare time, she loves to travel, try new restaurants, and be outside in the sun or on the water.

"Dr. Taylor was great with my cat! She really took her time with him and earned his trust instead of rushing through the appointment."
Nancy, mom of Finn
