Central Animal Hospital in Onalaska, WI is a well-established, AAHA-accredited small animal practice with deep roots in our community. We’re not a corporate group. Decisions here are made by veterinarians who practice here — including a former President of the AVMA and a former President of the WVMA. Your Mentors Are Former AVMA and WVMA Presidents Dr. Douglas Kratt served as AVMA President in 2020 and as President of the WVMA. Dr. Kimberly Kratt is a former President of the WVMA and an instructor in ultrasonography.
