Rachel Allbaugh, DVM Resident, Ophthalmology K-State College of Veterinary Medicine
Dr. Allbaugh received her DVM from Iowa State University. After earning this degree, she did a small animal medicine and surgery internship at Carolina Veterinary Specialists in Greensboro, NC. Rachel came to Kansas State University in July 2005 and is currently working on the requirements to become board-certified in veterinary ophthalmology while concurrently pursuing a master's degree. Dr. Allbaugh’s passion for veterinary ophthalmology began in undergraduate school with her own cat's nearly blinding eye disease. Since that time she has worked with numerous veterinary ophthalmologists, participated in research studies, and been a part of intense clinical training so that she can help teach others how to save vision in our pets and to love veterinary ophthalmology.
