Meet Dr. Stephanie Oedewaldt!
We are thrilled to introduce the newest addition to our veterinary team joining us in the new year!
Dr. Oedewaldt grew up right here in the Peoria area. Her passion for animals started early, she volunteered at TAPs and a local veterinary hospital throughout high school before earning her Bachelors degree in Biology and Chemistry from the University of Illinois.
In 2009, she graduated from the University of Georgia College of Veterinary Medicine and went on to spend 17 years caring for pets and families in the Chicago area. Recently, she, her husband, and their two dogs returned home to be closer to family and we’re so excited to welcome her back to the community.
Dr. Oedewaldt looks forward to helping her patients live their happiest, healthiest lives and building strong relationships with the families who love them.
🐾 Please join us in giving her a warm welcome! 🐾
