Dr. Kristen AndrewsOwner/Primary Veterinarian Welcome! I am Dr. Kristen Andrews, the primary veterinarian and owner of Stockton Hill Animal Hospital. I am originally from Iowa but moved to Kingman after graduating from the College of Veterinarian Medicine at Iowa State University in 1995. Some may know me as Dr. Nelson- I married in March of 2010 and so am now Dr. Andrews! I share my home with my husband, Art, and my pug, Satya. In my free time, I enjoy working out, snowboarding, hiking and just enjoying the beautiful Arizona outdoors! My husband and I are huge fans of Star Wars and have quite a collection of props and costumes from the movie as well as other movies. Like many others, I wanted to be a veterinarian when I was little. Unfortunately, I had a weak stomach and had decided that I simply could not do it. However, I had such a strong desire to spend my life helping animals that I forced myself to overcome my fears and pursue a career in veterinary medicine. It was one of the best decisions I ever made and I have greatly enjoyed this profession for the past 16 years. I look forward to another 16 years taking care of pets and their owners at Stockton Hill Animal Hospital. |
