Dr. Mary (as she is known around the clinic) was born in Friendship, WI and was raised in Adams and Alma, WI. She obtained her undergraduate degree from UW River Falls in 1983 and graduated from UW Madison's School of Veterinary Medicine in 1988. Her favorite part of veterinary medicine is working up the complicated medicine cases to reach a diagnosis and develop an effective treatment plan. She uses her free time to tend to her garden and three furry friends (Woodsey, Duncan and Skye). Once she gets the cabbage planted and the animals fed, she likes to dig her nose into a good book.
