Welcome to Grand Avenue Veterinary Hospital

Dr. Vogel started with Grand Avenue Veterinary doing relief work in August of 2022 and decided to join the team full time in September of 2023. She grew up on a small farm outside of Ames and knew from a young age that she wanted to be a veterinarian. Graduating from Iowa State University in 2007, sh then moved to California and practiced small animal medicine for 7 years. She has four children with her husband, Tim, and decided to move back to Iowa to raise their family. They have 1 dog, 5 cats, and a guinea pig. In her spare time she enjoys spending time with her family and being out doors.  She looks forward to getting to know you and your pets!

In July 2023 Grand Avenue Veterinary welcomed Dr. Gearig into the practice as Dr. Robinson transitioned into retirement.  She grew up on her family farm in Truro, Iowa, raising horses, cattle and sheep. Her education ventures took her to Northwest Missouri State University, and then onto Iowa State University College of Veterinary Medicine. Upon graduation in 2011, Dr. Emily and her husband, Jeff, were married, and she moved to his hometown, Montpelier, Ohio, where they have continued to reside with their three kids until recently.  Dr. Emily spent her first year in a mixed animal practice in the heart of Amish country in Topeka, Indiana. For the last 11 years, she has practiced a predominantly small animal clinic in Archbold, Ohio. In 2018, she earned a certification in veterinary spinal manipulative therapy from the Healing Oasis Wellness Center. She enjoys small animal internal medicine and animal chiropractic care. The biggest reward is not only educating clients, but also seeing the change in an animal’s behavior and mental state with proper adjustments to alleviate discomfort. Outside of the practice of veterinary medicine, Dr. Emily and Jeff enjoy upland bird hunting with their two German Shorthaired Pointers, King and Zehn. She also enjoys being outdoors in general and is very excited to be back in the country where a nature walk is right out the back door!  Dr. Emily is most excited about building new relationships with the staff, clients and pets of Grand Avenue Veterinary Hospital. She looks forward to meeting each and every one of you!

Dr. 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, two sons, Dan and Taylor, and grandchildren Mila and Crue. Dr. Wauhob enjoys spending time with her family and frequently visits her extended family and friends in Sioux City where she is from.
