Elizabeth van Iterson, Staff Veterinarian
Dr. Elizabeth van Iterson was born and raised in New Orleans, Louisiana. She realized in high school that she wanted to become a veterinarian after taking care of an abandoned three-legged cat found in her parent’s backyard that she later named Callie; Callie is still a part of her family back home today! On the journey to veterinary school, Elizabeth worked at Audubon Zoo as an intern, an emergency clinic in New Orleans as a veterinary assistant and a receptionist, and a general practice/ emergency/ referral center in Baton Rouge as a veterinary assistant and a receptionist. She went to LSU for undergrad and veterinary school.
Dr. Elizabeth van Iterson graduated undergrad with a biological science degree with a concentration of animal science in December 2014, and she graduated from LSU SVM in May 2020. She was inducted into the Phi Zeta organization in veterinary school due to being in the top 25% of her class. During veterinary school, she took part in acupuncture research through their summer scholars program, she became Fear Free certified in December 2018, and she attended the Chi Institute in Florida during her clinical year to study acupuncture and become CVA (certified veterinary acupuncturist) certified. Her main veterinary interests include clinical pathology, soft tissue surgery, dermatology, dentistry, acupuncture, and rehabilitation.
During her downtime, she enjoys spending time with her husband, Aric, and their two cats and two dogs. She also enjoys being physically active and working out with the tone it up program doing yoga, Pilates, and strength training. She loves to cook and watch her all-time favorite TV show, Friends!
