Veterinarian Overview
Dr. Stan Wallace, DVM Hometown: Jefferson City, Missouri Education: Bachelor of Science - Southwest Missouri State. Doctor of Veterinary Medicine - University of Missouri. I Am a Vet Because... I had no choice. Got bit by the vet bug at the young age of 16 working in my first pet hospital. Yes
cleaning cages! My Favorite Part of the Workday is... The end of the workday when the white lab coat gets placed on its hanger
Shows all the rewarding events of the day. A nice collection of dirty paw prints, lots of slobber from wet kisses, and clumps of hair from happy wagging tails. Makes me smile
life is good! What Inspires Me... Good owners that want the very best care for their pets
and a medium well done bacon cheeseburger
with fries. The Pet I Will Never Forget...Precious, an 18 year old cocker that I had the privilege of caring for the last 6 years of her life. A pet that survived a life threatening dog fight with 6 weeks in intensive care involving multiple surgeries to save her life. She was abandoned by her owner through this whole ordeal and eventually took her rightful spot
the couch in my living room! Miss you Precious. I Could Not Do My Job Without... Two things
the unending dedication of all the veterinary staff members I have had the honor of working with
and my family
what a high standard of compassion and caring they set. Unbelievably giving people. Things I Value Most... Gaining the trust of pet owners
and the relationship I have with my family
so lucky. Something People Don't Know About Me... Ha Ha
my secret life as a wanna be musician. Playing my French Horn in community orchestras over the years is my hidden passion. Love to play that horn
sometimes good
sometimes scary! I Relax By... Weight training and long walks with my finance Jan and our golden retriever Luke
then finding the bottom of a beach chair.
