Dr. Saele was born and raised in Cincinnati, Ohio. Growing up with two Rhodesian Ridgebacks, a green anole lizard, and multiple rabbits, she always knew from a very young age she wanted to work with animals. She completed a bachelor’s degree in biology from Saint Louis University, and she studied abroad in the Gold Coast of Australia during her sophomore year. She then took a year off school to work for a general practice back home in Cincinnati. She went on to earn her veterinary degree from the University of Missouri-Columbia. Dr. Saele enjoys the variety of general practice and has special interest in dermatology and surgery. She has a 4 year old Boston Terrier named Beans. 

 

Outside of work, Dr. Saele enjoys traveling, hiking, attending music festivals, hanging out at the beach, and spending time with friends and family.
