Our Speakers
Dermot Jevens
Dermot Jevens is the CEO and Co-Founder of AcharaVet. As a board-certified veterinary surgeon, Dermot believes that he has the privilege to work with the greatest group of people in the world, providing the greatest service in the world – caring for pets and their owners.
Dermot’s practice won the inaugural American Animal Hospital Association’s “Hospital of the Year” award and still holds the record as the clinic with the greatest number of architectural design awards in the US.
His surgical precision came in handy as his sons both raced go-karts at the nationally competitive level, and Dermot had the honor of serving as their mechanic. Nothing brings him more joy than watching his two boys begin to successfully navigate the world on their own.
Outside of work, Dermot enjoys traveling with his wife and jet skiing with his dogs, Guinness and Murphy.
Dr. Liza Price
Liza Price is the owner, founder, and lead veterinarian at Riverside Vet. Liza moved to Greer as a teenager and after practicing veterinary medicine all over the Upstate, Dr. Price is excited to come home again. She was an Animal Science major at Clemson University and earned her Doctor of Veterinary Medicine from Mississippi State University in 2013.
Liza has been working in veterinary medicine since she was 16 years old and has been a general practice veterinarian for over 10 years. She grew up on a farm with horses and competed in Hunter/Jumpers throughout high school with her horse – Wheel. Dr. Liza Price discovered her love for veterinary medicine as she watched the family veterinarian care for their horses. She is passionate about creating a space where everyone who walks in the door feels cared for – clients, pets, and employees.
Dr. Price has a 2-year-old mutt named Chili who she adopted from the humane society. Chili had 12 puppies and was heartworm positive. She is now negative and happy to be a member of the family. You may get to meet Chili as she sometimes gets to go to work with Dr. Price. (Sleeping in the office is so much more exciting than sleeping at home.)
Outside of the office, Dr. Liza Price works hard to find balance and space to enjoy all aspects of life with her husband Tyler, daughter Emma, Chili, and her many thriving plants. She loves to travel, kayak, sing karaoke, and is always up for a trip to a National Park or Harry Potter World.
