Meet Our Team

  • Michelle Krusing Weidenkopf, DVM

    Dr. Michelle is an experienced and compassionate veterinarian dedicated to
    selecting and administering the best treatments for your pet. With nearly 30 years of veterinary practice, she prioritizes the health and wellness of your dog or cat.

    Starting her career in equine veterinary medicine, Dr. Michelle was inspired by her own successful use of acupuncture, chiropractic care, and Traditional Chinese Medicine to address her health issues. This led her to become a licensed animal acupuncturist and chiropractor. She also has expertise in Traditional Chinese medicine and nutrition therapy. 

    In 2022, Dr. Michelle realized her dream of opening a fully integrated small animal clinic in Madison. She purchased and remodeled the building at 502 Atlas Avenue, designing it based on the Fear Free model to ensure a stress-free environment for pets.
