Dr. Alexis Goodenough was born and raised in Tucson, AZ. She grew up with horses and competed in multiple disciplines through 4-H, the Arabian Horse Association and the Tucson Hunter Jumper Association. It was her love for horses that triggered her commitment to becoming a veterinarian.
Dr. Alexis graduated Summa Cum Laude from Northern Arizona University in 2014, receiving a Bachelor of Science degree in Biology with a minor in Chemistry. During her time there, she helped with researching the genetics and polymorphology of marine isopods.
In 2015 Dr. Alexis started veterinary school at Washington State University College of Veterinary Medicine. There she worked at the school’s dairy, where she fell in love with ruminants, herd health and production medicine. She helped with a research project for enhancing bovine heat detection with third world countries in mind. She graduated with honors from Veterinary School in May 2019.
Dr. Alexis is excited to begin her veterinary career in Tucson, AZ. She has a special interest in equine medicine, herd health and production medicine, bovine and equine reproduction and small ruminant medicine. She also looks forward to giving back to the Tucson community by being involved with the local 4-H and FFA chapters.
Outside of work Dr. Alexis enjoys horseback riding, kayaking, fishing, and hiking. She currently owns three dogs (Maverick, Reign and Sig) and two horses (Aztec and Dusty). (Source)
