Speaker Biography:


Dr. Casey Smith graduated veterinary school from the University of Glasgow and then went to a private referral centre in Pittsburgh, PA for her rotating internship.  Trying to decide between Neuro and Surgery as specialties, she then completed a split Neuro/Surgical internship in San Antonio, TX prior to a Neurology/Neurosurgery internship at Canada West in Vancouver, BC. She completed a Neurology/Neurosurgery residency at the University of Wisconsin-Madison in 2020 and came home to Edmonton to join Pulse Veterinary Specialists and Emergency where she has been since February of 2021. She was awarded Diplomate status with the ACVIM in July 2021 and enjoys spending time with her family, collecting too many houseplants, live music, travel, and spoiling her little paralyzed Frenchie Roo (Ruby).
