Meet Our South Team
Dr. Susan Welsch, BA, DVM
Veterinarian
Prior to her relocation to the southeast, Dr. Susan Welsch hailed from the New Jersey, New York area. She holds a Bachelor of Arts in biology from Rutgers University and a Doctor of Veterinary Medicine from Cornell University. Dr. Welsch extended her studies at the prestigious Animal Medical Center in New York City.
She is a skilled sonographer, having trained under Dr. Eric Lindquist, the founder of Sonopath. This expertise is highly sought in veterinary diagnostics and we are fortunate she has chosen to join Animal Hospital South.
Having previously owned a practice in New Jersey, Dr. Welsch understands the value of a state of the art facility as well as tenured and certified professional staff, both evident at the Animal Hospital South. She understands the importance of the bond between human and animal and respects the opinions of those whose lives are so closely aligned with their companion.
She and her husband enjoy their small farm in Henderson County where they raise berries and vegetables. Helping them on their farm are their two “girls,” Fiona Francis Bean and Emmy Lou, both wire haired pointers! The couple enjoy seeking the outdoor beauty our mountains offer as well as a nice night listening to good music!
