Dr. Emily Smith is an emergency veterinarian at our Eden Prairie hospital, with additional experience serving patients in Eau Claire, Minneapolis, Rochester, and Brooklyn Park. She earned her Doctor of Veterinary Medicine from Washington State University in 2015, after completing her undergraduate degree in Biology with a minor in Chemistry at Willamette University.
Dr. Smith’s interest in veterinary medicine began with her fascination for animal evolution and the health challenges pets face. Today, she especially enjoys the problem-solving nature of emergency medicine—whether it’s performing surgery to help a pet in crisis or providing care to cranky old cats and the people who love them.
Outside of the hospital, Dr. Smith enjoys gardening, exploring nature through walks or canoeing, and spending time with her two kids.
