Please welcome our new doctor to Coal Ridge Animal Hospital. Dr. Hooper also does Acupuncture here at Coal Ridge.
Dr. Sarah Hooper DVM, cVMA, CCRP
Dr. Sarah Hooper grew up near the Blue Ridge mountains, receiving her BA in Biology and Music from the University of Virginia and her DVM from Virginia-Maryland College of Veterinary Medicine. She decided to pursue rehabilitation and acupuncture certification coursework through University of Tennessee/VAHL and CuraCore alongside her fourth-year veterinary school rotations due to her interest in veterinary rehabilitation. Following graduation, Dr. Hooper joined a rehabilitation-focused practice which brought her to Colorado. While she found rehabilitation fulfilling and witnessed some amazing outcomes for both injured and aging patients, she missed other aspects of veterinary medicine and decided to move into general practice. In the clinic Dr. Hooper enjoys empowering families to participate in care and collaborating to reach shared goals for their furry family members. She is committed to guiding both pets and their people with kindness and compassion. Outside of the clinic she enjoys sharing her life with one dog (Phoebe) and a bird (Kenai). Her hobbies include gardening, yoga, playing violin and anything that involves being outside near mountains or water.
