Veterinarian

Dr. Theresa VonAlmen, a proud Northwest Ohio native, has been serving the local community as a veterinarian for nearly a decade. A graduate of the University of Findlay and The Ohio State University College of Veterinary Medicine, Dr. VonAlmen is now realizing her lifelong dream of opening her animal hospital in Waterville.

As she works tirelessly behind the scenes to bring this vision to life, Dr. VonAlmen is eager to share her journey with you and looks forward to providing the highest quality veterinary care for your furry family members.

When she’s not caring for animals, you can find her enjoying the serene beauty of the Maumee River, where she feels most at home. At home, she’s accompanied by her two Labrador Retrievers—a yellow lab named Dixie, an old soul, and a chocolate lab named Duchess, the mischievous, laughter-inducing member of the family.

Get ready, Waterville—Dr. VonAlmen can’t wait to welcome you and your pets to her new clinic!
