Partnership

July 20, 2015

We have some exciting news to share!  Dr. Heather Stadtherr has become Dr. Ann Brownlee’s partner in the ownership of Grand Avenue Veterinary Center. Dr. Stadtherr has been with GAVC since 1996, starting as a volunteer while attending undergraduate college at the University of MN. She was soon hired and worked as a veterinary assistant until her senior year at the University of MN College of Veterinary Medicine.  She graduated from vet school in 2005, worked at another clinic for 1 year and then returned to GAVC in 2006 as an associate veterinarian.   She was very excited to come “home” and is thrilled to now be a partner in the clinic. She resides in White Bear Lake with her fiancé Gary, 2 children, 3 soon-to-be step children, 2 cats and 2 dogs! Heather and Gary are getting married in December and she will then become Dr. Heather Taylor.  When she has a rare moment of free time (aside from kid activities), she enjoys gardening, reading,  fitness, traveling and  the occasional nap. Dr. Stadtherr has a special interest in feline medicine and behavior.  She also enjoys surgery and dentistry.  Dr. Stadtherr loves getting to know our clients and feels blessed to have developed many meaningful relationships over the years.
