Jennifer K. Buchholz, VMD

Dr. Jennifer Buchholz completed her veterinary education at the University of Pennsylvania’s School of Veterinary Medicine and graduated as Valedictorian of her class, having earned multiple academic and clinical achievement awards. Additional specialty training in equine sports medicine and surgery was obtained at the New Jersey Equine Clinic in Clarksburg, New Jersey, prior to joining the practice in the summer of 2001.

Having spent eight years in New England, Dr. Buchholz decided to pursue a career change, relocating as a research assistant at New Bolton Center in Kennett Square, Pennsylvania.

Outside the realm of all things animal related, Dr. Buchholz enjoys outdoor activities including hiking, biking, swimming and camping. She is passionate in supporting the activities of her two young children, which means being a fan at many a baseball game, softball game, soccer game, triathlons, gymnastic meets and horse shows.
