Our Veterinarian Stacey Scanlon, DVM
Stacey Scanlon, DVM was greatly influenced by her time spent on her family’s dairy farm, Lynnacres Registered Holsteins, in New Tripoli, PA. She showed cows and pigs in 4-H at the local fairs and was the Salutatorian of her graduating class at Northwestern Lehigh High School in 1998. She went on to major in Animal Sciences at Penn State University, where she graduated as Student Marshal of the spring graduating class of the College of Agricultural Sciences in 2002. She then attended The Ohio State University, where she received her Doctor of Veterinary Medicine degree in 2006.
Dr. Scanlon was initially a dairy veterinarian in Wisconsin, but decided to change career paths to small animal medicine and surgery. To facilitate this, she completed a small animal emergency internship at Wisconsin Veterinary Referral Center, where she remained for several years thereafter as a staff emergency veterinarian.
She since moved back to her stomping grounds in Pennsylvania and has worked at local general and emergency practices, in addition to aero commuting to Animal Care and Emergency Services in San Francisco, California. She is excited to become a practice owner, to promote a positive working environment, and to really make a difference in the community.
Dr. Scanlon enjoys all of the diverse aspects of veterinary medicine and surgery, in particular client education and developing long-term relationships with clients and their pets. When she is not at work, she is spending time with her family, serving as a leader of the Lehigh County 4-H Dairy Club, and relaxing with her cat, Sonias.
