Dr. Jennifer Baade

DVM

Dr. Jennifer Baade started at Lago Vista Animal Clinic as a relief veterinarian in 2009 and has worked here regularly since 2018. She graduated from Texas A&M University with her Doctorate of Veterinary Medicine in 2001. After working in Galveston, TX, for 7 years, she moved to the greater Austin area and continued practicing small animal medicine. She has used this experience to practice compassionate and quality veterinary medicine. She loves seeing patients in all life stages, but her favorite part about being a veterinarian is the puppy/kitten visit. It may be cliché, but beyond just getting to love on the sweet babies, it is the best opportunity to start a positive relationship with them so that as they grow, we can hopefully mitigate the fear that sometimes develops with trips to the vet. It is also the best time to start working with owners on how important preventative medicine is so that we can do our best to provide a long, happy life for our pets. Dr. Jennifer Baade is owned by two Irish Wolfhounds, a Border Collie, an American Foxhound, four cats, three guinea pigs, and seven box turtles. Outside of work, she enjoys spending time with her husband and two daughters, reading, and doing pet therapy visits with The Dog Alliance.
