Practice Owner

Evie Fredenburg

Evie began her Greenfield career in 2001 as a receptionist then stepped into the role of office manager, and then became practice manager. Evie is responsible for creating a cohesive team of like-minded individuals with similar morals and goals for the practice. After 20 years of managing the practice, she became business partners with Dr. Shencopp and together they acquired Greenfield Animal Hospital. During the acquisition of Greenfield, Evie was diagnosed with breast cancer. Through the pain, discomfort, and treatments she fought to stay strong for her husband, family, friends, Greenfield, and most importantly, herself. We are proud of her and happy to announce she’s been in remission since 2020. There were some dark times but she persevered and is proud to say that Greenfield Animal Hospital is one of the last few independently owned veterinary hospitals in the area. This allows the doctors and staff to provide the level of medicine they believe to be of utmost importance. She loves going to work every day and is so proud of each employee and their dedication to their patients. When she’s not at Greenfield, she’s either cuddling with her cats, Holly, Harry, and Steven, or practicing Bass, seeing a live show, trying a new restaurant, traveling, hiking, biking, and enjoying life.

We would like to raise awareness and let everyone know: You aren’t alone!
