JENEEN ANDERSON

IRON MOUNTAIN — Veterinarian Dr. Jeneen Anderson opened practice today with the Iron Mountain Animal Hospital.

Anderson did her externship at the hospital last fall during her final year of veterinary school, developing a bond with clinic staff.

“We were very excited when she accepted our offer of employment this spring,” said Stephanie Mieras, practice manager at the clinic, 325 Kent St.

Anderson grew up on a small farm in northern Illinois, where her love for animals cultivated a passion for the human-animal bond. She said she knew from a young age she wanted to be a veterinarian.

She earned her bachelor of arts in biology in 2016 at Augustana College, then her doctorate of veterinary medicine from the University of Illinois in 2019.

The Iron Mountain Animal Hospital practice also includes the Norway Veterinary Clinic, 1105 Seventh Ave. in Norway.
