Christine Wauhob DVMDr. Wauhob has been an associate veterinarian at Grand Avenue Veterinary Hospital since 2006. She grew up in Sioux City, Iowa and attended Morningside College there and University of Central Oklahoma in 1998 before graduating from the Veterinary College at Iowa State. Her professional interests include oncology and internal medicine. As a little girl, she loved animals but could not have a dog or cat of her own. Seeing the special bond other people had with their pets encouraged her to pursue a career in veterinary medicine. By providing quality and compassionate healthcare to her patients, she is able to strengthen the bond between our clients and their furry family members. Her family includes her husband, Larry, and two sons, Dan and Taylor. Larry works in maintenance for the Boone Community Schools. Dan is currently pursuing his passion as a television producer and sports broadcaster in Nebraska and Taylor is attending DMACC. . Dr. Wauhob enjoys spending time with her family and frequently visits her extended family and friends in Sioux City where she is from.
