Dr. Shacker
My name is Dr. Kelsey Shacker and it is great that you are learning more about the team and reading our bios!
It has been through my own horse's journeys that I have focused on using integrative medicine to find ways to help improve their quality of life. Since graduating from University of Calgary faculty of Veterinary Medicine in 2012, I have received certification in veterinary chiropractors and most recently traditional chinese acupuncture. I'm excited to blend these modalities with traditional vet med medicine to help horses from those in high performance, to pasture companions, and everything in between.
You can find me teaching the veterinary technologists at Olds College on a full time basis, but I am excited to meet you and your horse (or small animal) for integrative services on an as needed basis!
Not a regular client of Countryside? No problem. I am happy to work with your regular vet, and horse care team, and will keep communication lines open as needed with all parties.
