CIVT Podcast : Dr Kimberly Schmidt

Back
Our next podcast is live! Today's episode is with Dr Kimberly Schmidt, a veterinaran who runs her own mobile holistic practice in California, USA. Please enjoy this conversation with Dr Schmidt as we discuss growing up in the family veterinary practice, her training, holistic interests, and her small family farm.

Dr Schmidt was raised in the Chicago, Illinois area. She is the daughter of two veterinarians, and grew up in their feline only practice. She did her undergraduate and veterinary studies at the University of Illinois, earning her DVM in 2008. Afterwards, she did a small animal internship in private practice. Following the internship, she moved to California and worked in general small animal practice for seven years.

It was during this time that Dr Schmidt started her holistic education, looking for additional ways to help her patients. She earned her acupuncture certification from IVAS, Chinese herbal and food therapy certifications from Chi University, and a Graduate Diploma in Veterinary Western Herbal Medicine from CIVT.

Dr Schmidt started her own mobile holistic practice in Napa Valley, California in 2016. Since then she has added two additional veterinarians to the staff, and her practice also offers a Pet Loss Support Group. She is the President Elect of the Veterinary Botanical Medicine Association (VBMA).
