Dr. Alexander graduated from Kansas State University in 1986 with a bachelor degree in Biology and from Vet school in 1994.  She moved from the Kansas City area, where she grew up, as soon as she graduated from Vet School moving to Florida. She worked at South Trail Animal Hospital for 7 years before buying Santa Barbara Animal Hospital in 2001.  She has an interest in orthopedic surgeries and is PennHIP certified.  She has plans for the new clinic to include physical therapy.

Dr. Alexander has 3 cats, one lives at the clinic since he is diabetic and insulin dependent. 


His name is Tuvok and he is about 12 years old.  He is a little shy so he stays in back most of the time making a mess.
