Meet our Doctors

Kate Karlen, DVM

Rotating Veterinarian

I grew up in Woodbridge, VA and earned my Bachelor of Science in Biology from Penn State. I then worked at an ER in Fairfax, VA before earning my Doctor of Veterinary Medicine from Virginia Tech. As a curious mind, I appreciate all aspects of this incredible field; however, I’m particularly interested in emergency, critical care, and internal medicine.

When I’m off the clock, you can find me enjoying the outdoors, staying active, listening to music, and traveling. I’m so excited to return caring for the animals of the DMV area, and I’m honored to be joining the FHA team!

Education:

  • The Pennsylvania State University – Eberly College of Science, B.S. Biology
  • The Virginia-Maryland College of Veterinary Medicine, DVM
