Veterinarian Overview
Dr. Krista Bowen dreamed of becoming a veterinarian at a young age. Inspired by James Herriots All Creatures Great and Small, she began pursuing this goal early in life. At the age of 10, she began regularly shadowing a small animal veterinarian in Galveston, Texas. Through high school and college, she continued working as a receptionist and technician at the same veterinary clinic. After graduation from Texas A&M College of Veterinary Medicine in 2009, she practiced at a mixed animal practice in Bowling Green, Missouri for seven years. She joined OVMC as an associate in June 2016.
