Meet Dr. Simms!

We’re wrapping up our DVM Week spotlights with Dr. Simms, a traveling ultrasound veterinarian who brings a special skill to our patients! She travels from clinic to clinic and joins us whenever one of our patients needs an ultrasound or echocardiogram, helping provide valuable answers right here at Laketown.

Her path to veterinary medicine began after working with horses for many years. Once she took a job at a small animal clinic, she was hooked! Her favorite part of vet med is getting to know people and their pets and finding ways to help them both live better lives.
Outside of work, Dr. Simms is a certified yoga instructor and also loves to quilt.

As we wrap up our DVM Week spotlights, we’re giving Dr. Simms, and all of the incredible veterinarians we’re fortunate to work with, one more big round of AP-paws! 👏

Meet Dr. Zygadto!

You may recognize Dr. Zygadto as one of the wonderful relief veterinarians who steps in to help care for our patients when our regular doctors are away or when an extra set of hands is needed. We’re always happy to have her as part of the Laketown team!

Her love of science and animals inspired her to pursue veterinary medicine, plus, in her words, “people medicine is icky!” 😂 She loves that every day in vet med brings a new adventure and a new challenge. Outside of work, Dr. Zygadto loves to cook and bake, especially when it means feeding her family.

Join us in giving Dr. Zygadto a well-deserved round of AP-paws and a big thank you for always being there when we need her! 👏

Meet Dr. McCullough! 🐾

Dr. McCullough is a relief veterinarian who sees our patients when our doctors are on vacation or out of the office. She has become a familiar face around the hospital and helps keep our days running smoothly. She makes sure our patients continue to receive terrific care, and we are very grateful for her great attitude and expertise!

Dr. McCullough’s love for animals started at a young age, but it was caring for one of her childhood cats through a serious illness that made her realize she wanted to spend her life helping animals. Her favorite part of veterinary medicine is working alongside incredibly caring and giving people to help foster the special bond between pets and the people who love them.
Outside of the hospital, she’s a big sports fan and helps coach girls basketball in Pawnee! 🏀

Join us in giving Dr. McCullough a well-deserved round of AP-paws for the compassion she brings to our patients and for always being there when we need her! 👏

Meet Dr. Fisherkeller!

Dr. Fisherkeller’s love for animals started at home, with a mom who welcomed every stray dog that crossed her path and a dad who happily went along with it! That love for animals eventually led to a career in veterinary medicine that has now spanned an incredible 46 years. One of her favorite parts of the job is working alongside a fantastic staff who share her dedication to caring for both animals and the people who love them.
Outside of the hospital, Dr. Fisherkeller enjoys traveling, gardening, spending time with friends, and visiting her favorite wine shops.

Join us in giving Dr. Fisherkeller a very well-deserved round of AP-paws for 46 years of caring for pets, their families, and our community! 👏

Meet Dr. Peterson!

Dr. Peterson has always had an interest in science and medicine, with several family members working in the medical field, including an uncle who was a veterinarian. After teaching high school science for a few years, he decided to make a career change that combined his love of science, medicine, and animals.
One of his favorite parts of veterinary medicine is seeing a sick or injured patient come through the doors and later walk out feeling better, knowing he and the team played a part in their recovery. He also enjoys getting to know our clients and their pets and working alongside our awesome team.
Outside of the hospital, you can often find Dr. Peterson woodworking in his garage or tackling a home improvement project!

Join us in giving Dr. Peterson a well-deserved round of AP-paws for all he does for his patients, their families, and our team! 👏

Meet Dr. Felgenhauer!

Dr. Felgenhauer’s inspiration to become a veterinarian started with his own pet growing up and seeing firsthand the impact his veterinarian made on their life. Today, he especially enjoys the internal medicine side of veterinary medicine: working through cases, digging into the numbers, and putting the pieces together. Outside of the hospital, Dr. Felgenhauer enjoys bird watching, which he finds peaceful and relaxing.

Join us in giving Dr. Felgenhauer a well-deserved round of AP-paws for all he does for his patients and their families! 👏
