Listen now
Description
Dr. Seely specializes in chiropractic care for animals. Formerly an exotic veterinarian, practicing chiropractic became so rewarding and busy that she shifted her focus to only chiropractic- making sure that all her patients could align themselves with health. Her education began in Wolfville, Nova Scotia where she earned her Bachelor of Science with Honors in Biology in 1986 from Acadia University. Dr. Seely went on to earn a Master of Science degree in Wildlife Biology in 1991 from the University of Guelph and graduated from Ontario Veterinary College with her DVM in 1995. She studied Animal Chiropractic under the auspices of the American Veterinary Chiropractic Association in Moline, Illinois. She has published her first book, One Bone at a Time: Tales of an Adventurous Animal Chiropractor, chronicling her journey as a veterinarian, marine biologist, and animal chiropractor. Dr. Seely is very active, running marathons and usually competing in one Ironman triathlon a year. She enjoys cross-country skiing, swimming, kayaking, and horseback riding- anything that gets her outside. Most of all she is a passionate mother who loves cheering her son on from the bleachers at his basketball games and participating in triathlons or running races with her daughter and husband.
