Veterinarian Overview

Dr. Olsen is a 2006 graduate of Texas A&M University College of Veterinary Medicine. He started his quest to become a "bird brain" as an undergraduate working towards his Bachelor of Science in Wildlife Biology from the University of Vermont. While earning his degree at UVM, he began working with birds as a volunteer raptor rehabilitator. Later, he managed a raptor center in McKinney, Texas, which provided care for as many as 380 birds of prey in a single year. After 3 years at this rehabilitation facility, Geoff moved on to start his veterinary education. While earning his Doctor of Veterinary Medicine degree, Geoff performed avian iron storage disease research with Dr. David Phalen of the Schubot Exotic Bird Health Center. His research papers won the 2004 Student Manuscript Award from the Association of Avian Veterinarians, and he presented papers on Avian Iron Storage Disease at both the 2004 and 2005 Association of Avian Veterinarians Annual Conferences. During his 4 years at Texas A&M, Geoff helped instruct his fellow students in bird examination techniques and other aspects of avian medicine throug the Zoo, Exotic, and Wildlife Club. He also spent time doing some volunteer work with the National Parrot Rescue and Preservation Foundation. In 2009 Geoff completed his American Board of Veterinary Practictioners (ABVP) residency in avian medicine at the Medical Center for Birds. He received his ABVP diplomacy with a specialty in avian medicine in 2010. His professional goals are to continue learning, to practicing and furthering the field of avian medicine and surgery. Geoff is truly excited about his career here at the Medical Center for Birds. Geoff is owned by a menagerie of animals at home that include Sherlock the green-cheeked conure, Hunter the black lab, several lizards and snakes, and Natalie, his wife (a veterinarian at Tracy Veterinary Clinic).
