Dr. Ashely Swanson
Dr. Ashley grew up in Chamberlain, South Dakota. She completed her undergraduate degree at South Dakota State University where she received her Bachelor of Science in Animal Science. She then completed veterinary schooling at Iowa State University and received her Doctor of Veterinary Medicine. Dr. Ashley tracked mixed animal medicine in veterinary schooling and focused extra time and opportunities towards large animal medicine, specifically beef production. Although, Dr. Ashley grew up on a cow/calf operation and feedlot, she still loves caring for small animals as well and hasn’t been without a farm dog or cat most of her life. This has also led to her recently adopting her cat, Harold in the past year. Dr. Ashley spent her first year of practice in Winner, SD at a predominantly large animal practice. She later joined our team in May of 2022.
When Dr. Ashley isn’t caring for your companion animals or livestock you will find her spending time with her family and friends. She especially loves spoiling her three nephews any chance she gets. Dr. Ashley also enjoys reading a good book, hammocking, ice skating, and traveling when the opportunity arises. Dr. Ashley is excited to be back in her hometown to provide care for all animals in the surrounding areas!
