Veterinarians

Dr. Shauna Anderson - Owner

Dr. Shauna grew up in Southern California. She always had a great variety of animals as her furry friends - dogs, cats, chickens, rabbits, guinea pigs, birds, snakes, iguana, mice, and a horse. Her passion for animals grew from the lifelong care she gave for all of these pets. She
graduated from Cal Poly Pomona with her Bachelors in Science degree. She then attended St. George’s University in Grenada for her first 3 years and the University of Florida for her 4th year of Veterinary School. Dr. Shauna has practiced in South Carolina, including various areas of
Southern California. Practicing veterinary medicine in different regions has allowed for her to see a wide-variety cases.

In 2018, Dr. Shauna came to work in the beautiful mountains at Rimforest Animal Hospital. At the time, the owner, Dr. Jon Frieboes, stated that he was ready to “hang up his syringes”. An opportunity arrived and came to fruition in June of 2019.

Dr. Shauna currently resides in Apple Valley (just short but beautiful drive to the mountains). She has her 3 cats, 2 chickens, a horse and her dog, Gigi, whom some of you may meet when visit the hospital - Gigi is the true manager!
