Welcome, Dr Hensley

As you know, West Ridge Animal Hospital strives to provide the highest quality of care and offers a comprehensive variety of treatment options for your pets. To this end, we recently welcomed a new veterinarian who specializes in the canine rehabilitation arena. Just what all does that entail, you ask? Canine rehabilitation:
• Improves recovery time post-surgically,
• Increases quality of life for arthritic and/or senior pets,
• Helps with weight loss,
• Conditions dogs for hunting season, agility, fly ball and other high paced activities,
• And offers an alternative treatment for dogs who are not good candidates for surgery.
If your pet will benefit from rehabilitation, you can expect to meet with Dr. Hensley who will perform an evaluation and provide a treatment plan which includes at-home instructions.


Dr. Hensley received her Bachelor’s Degree in Animal and Poultry Sciences from Virginia Tech in 2006 and her DVM from Ross University School of Veterinary Medicine in 2010. After veterinary school, Dr. Hensley joined a mixed animal practice in southeastern Wyoming. During this time, she also pursued advanced training in canine rehabilitation and became a certified canine rehabilitation therapist in 2011. Her special interest in canine rehabilitation brought her to West Ridge Animal Hospital in 2011 to further develop their rehabilitation program. She shares her home with her two dogs, Tucker and Murphy, and enjoys reading, hiking and traveling in her spare time.

We could not be happier to welcome Dr Hensley and her four-legged friends to our family!
