🐾 Doctor Spotlight: Dr. Jeanie Welker 🐾
Dr. Welker was raised in the Ozarks and brings an incredibly diverse background and wealth of experience to our team! Before becoming a veterinarian, she earned a degree in Graphic Communications with a minor in English Literature from Washington University in St. Louis and served as a U.S. Naval Officer for five years after attending Officer Candidate School in Pensacola, Florida.
After her military service, she returned to school to pursue veterinary medicine, earning her DVM from the University of Missouri–Columbia College of Veterinary Medicine. She practiced in Missouri for five years before making the move to the Pacific Northwest.
When she’s not caring for patients, Dr. Welker enjoys traveling, arts and crafts, puzzles, antique and muscle cars, martial arts, and weightlifting. She practices both Judo and Brazilian Jiu Jitsu and is also an IFBB Pro bodybuilder!
We are so lucky to have her knowledge, dedication, and compassion here at Normandy Animal Hospital! ❤️
