Many of you probably already know Dr. Kristie Stanton. She has been one of our General Practice doctors for the past 4 years at our Chandler location. Growing up in the small town of Parker, Arizona, Kristie, always had a love of animals raising and showing chickens and pigeons, as well as participating in 4-H. Dr. Stanton, started working in the veterinary field as a teenager as a kennel attendant and then progressed to becoming a veterinary assistant.
She achieved her DVM at Colorado State University in 2009. After graduation she pursued an internship in medicine and surgery at VCA West Lost Angeles Animal Hospital from 2009-2010 and then joined us here at 1stPet-Chandler! One of her favorite things to do at work is performing puppy and kitten exams, but she has many stories of clients and patients that are dear to her heart.
When not at work, Dr. Stanton, loves to go hiking and traveling. She recently hiked down to Havasupai, AZ and declares it to be one of the ‘most beautiful places I've ever seen.’ She also loves to be at home cooking and spending time with her fiancé (wedding in April 2015) and their 5 dogs and 2 cats!
