Dr. Jornigan is originally from McDowell County and grew up in the Dysartsville community. His interest in veterinary medicine started as a youth raising chickens, pigs, goats, and spending countless hours with his two horses. He spent many summers through school working with his mentor, Dr. Jeffrey Schutz, the founder of Foothills Mobile Veterinary Service. Throughout college, Dr. Jornigan worked on various farms and traveled the world working with different veterinary practices and the US Department of Agriculture. In 2013, he became the sole owner of the practice. With the opening of a new facility in 2020, the practice was renamed Foothills Large Animal Hospital.
Dr. Jornigan’s professional interests include reproduction, equine podiatry, ophthalmology, equine dentistry, nutrition, and teaching.
Dr. Jornigan and his wife, Megan are both active members at First Baptist Church Marion. He has an interest in mission work and has served with Christian Veterinary Missions in the Navajo Nation, and with his church in Belize. They share their home with their dog, Tuck, and two cats – Punk and Asher. Out at the barn, they have 4 horses and two wonderful barn cats – Flori and Fen. When he is not seeing patients, he enjoys horseback riding, hiking, scuba diving, playing piano, and working on his endless projects around the farm. (Source)
