Dr. Stacie Grannum DVM (Veterinarian)

Dr. Stacie Grannum was born and raised in Arizona. When she was five, an encounter with a tiny animal changed her life forever. A baby bird fell high from its nest, and Dr. Grannum diligently cared for it. Sadly, despite her attempts to save the little birds life, the little bird did not survive. From this heartbreaking loss came a new ambition, carving the path that Dr. Grannum followed. She knew that she wanted to pursue a career in veterinary medicine. She worked hard toward that goal and dedicated her time to pursuing her dream.  Today, her focus is on pet health, particularly wellness and preventive medicine. She also enjoys writing about pet health and is eager to share her knowledge with other pet lovers. In 2014, Dr. Grannum earned her Doctor of Veterinary Medicine Degree from Colorado State University.
