Dr. John Hageman
Senior Veterinarian
Dr. Hageman grew up in rural Benton County surrounded by animals, wild and domestic. After serving in the United States Marine Corps, he decided to follow his passion of the natural sciences and pursues a career as a veterinarian. From a student to an employee, employee to business partner, and from a partner with full veterinary practice owner, Dr. Hageman's animal healthcare career has taken many forms.
