Veterinarian Overview
Dr. Craig Welbourne grew up on a farm in Southwest Iowa. His late Uncle Dale Welbourne, who had a large animal veterinary practice in his hometown of Neola, inspired him to enter the profession. He graduated from Tri-Center High School in 1967, and received his Doctorate of Veterinary Medicine from Iowa State University in 1973. Dr. Welbourne practiced small animal medicine in Nashville, TN and Sioux City, IA until 1977. He has been at Oak Forest Animal Clinic since 1978. Dr. Welbourne's special interests include using natural and homeopathic remedies to compliment traditional veterinary treatments, and in encouraging preventative medicine. In his free time, he enjoys mountain biking and hiking with his wife Sue. He is thrilled to be a grandfather and loves spending time with his four grandchildren!
