Kara Caldwell, DVM, MPH

Dr. Caldwell really loves the new challenges that every day brings and the unpredictability of veterinary medicine.  She attended undergraduate school at the University of Rhode Island and received separate degrees in Psychology, Biology, and Animal Science with a minor in chemistry.  She attended veterinary school at Tufts University and the Masters in Public Health program at the University of Minnesota, graduating in 2011. In public health classes she fell in love with emergency preparedness and preventative medicine, both of which are the focus of her thesis.

At home she lives with her husband and three cats: Mercy, Scoots, and Maggie.  In her free time she plays computer and board games, practices archery, and reads.  Promoting the health and welfare of cats while maintaining the human-animal bond is very important to Dr. Caldwell, and she is happy to be part of a feline-focused team that feels the same way.
