Dr. Kelsey Smith graduated from Purdue University College of Veterinary Medicine in May of 2023. She is so excited to be escaping the Indiana winters and venturing south to join the amazing team of doctors at Shaffer Animal Hospital in June of 2023! Dr. Smith enjoys all aspects of veterinary medicine, but her special interests include shelter medicine, general surgery, and alternative pain management. Outside of the veterinary world, she enjoys reading, going to the gym, listening to a good true crime podcast, and spending time in the sunshine with her husband and their two big-headed pit mixes, Toby and Louis.
