Margaret Monica Koosmann, DVM, Owner of the Ashland Area Veterinary Clinic, has been recognized by Marquis Who’s Who Top Doctors for dedication, achievements, and leadership in veterinary medicine.
Since 2015, Dr. Koosmann has found success with the Ashland Area Veterinary Clinic, treating animals in her position as a veterinarian. In 2020, she became the owner of the clinic and has excelled in this capacity since. Under her leadership, the Ashland Area Veterinary Clinic was named Best Veterinary Clinic in Northern Wisconsin.
Dr. Koosmann grew up on her family farm, which her family has operated since 1926. She spent time with veterinarians on the farm, which sparked her interest in the field. Once, she delivered a calf with her great-grandmother, but the calf wasn’t breathing at first. Dr. Koosmann’s great-grandmother taught her not to give up on the calf and keep massaging it until it started breathing. Eventually, the calf began breathing. Later in life, Dr. Koosmann decided to pursue veterinary medicine.
In addition to her primary career pursuits, Dr. Koosmann contributes her time to the Mental Health Awareness Task Force of the Wisconsin Veterinary Medicine Association. Veterinary medicine has the highest rate of suicide among all medical careers, and Dr. Koosmann works to help look after the mental health of veterinarians and their staff, helping them find healthy coping mechanisms. She is also an active member and donor to her local Catholic church and responds to the needs of her community, donating to fire departments and people in hard times. Dr. Koosmann also offers free veterinary assistance.
In preparation for her career, Dr. Koosmann attended Northland College, graduating in 2010 with a Bachelor of Science. In 2015, she completed her higher education with a Doctor of Veterinary Medicine from the University of Wisconsin-Madison’s School of Veterinary Medicine. To stay abreast of developments in her field, Dr. Koosmann remains affiliated with the Non-Scientific Continuing Education Committee. In her spare time, she enjoys spending time at her family farm, cooking, playing softball, farming, fishing, and hunting.
