Dr. Kelsey Bradley
I was born and raised in St. Louis and moved to the Kansas City area during high school. I completed my undergraduate and veterinary degrees at Kansas State University and after graduation was ready to venture out of the Midwest. I landed in sunny Arizona and haven’t looked back! I joined AZPetVet in 2015 and enjoy all aspects of veterinary medicine but especially love working in a collaborative way with clients to provide the best care for my patients.
When I'm not in the clinic, I take advantage of the incredible outdoors Phoenix and surrounding areas have to offer. I love hiking, backpacking, and playing Ultimate Frisbee. I also enjoy baking, exploring the Phoenix food scene, and live music. I am so excited to have the opportunity to meet you and care for your furry family members soon!
Dr. Alycia Hagenmaier
I was born and raised in sunny Phoenix, AZ (native Phoenicians do exist!). I earned my undergraduate degree from Arizona State University while working full time as a veterinary technician. I then, headed off to Colorado State University, where I earned my Doctor of Veterinary Medicine degree in 2018.
I enjoy all aspects of veterinary medicine; however, I have a special interest in chronic pain management and dermatology. I love providing education to our clients and helping to ensure our pets have quality medical care throughout their lives. In my free time, I enjoy traveling, hiking, photography and trying new restaurants.
Dr. Cassandra Balsley
I grew up in Mesa, AZ and attended ASU for undergrad. I then moved to Fort Collins to attend Colorado State University for veterinary school, graduating in 2022. I worked at a dog daycare and boarding facility during my undergraduate studies, which is where I truly gained my passion for dogs and their well-being. This experience led me to shadow and intern at several veterinary clinics before, and during, vet school. While my areas of interest include dermatology and oncology, the most rewarding part of being a veterinarian is playing a small part in maintaining a strong human-animal bond between clients and their animals. I love to see the special connection between owners and their pets and support that special bond by providing access to quality medicine and care.
Outside of the office I love to spend time outdoors, whether that is hiking, kayaking, or playing soccer. I also love to travel, with the hopes of one day visiting every continent. When it's too hot during the AZ summers, I like to watch movies and read fantasy/science fiction books. I currently have two dogs; Flynn a Cockapoo, and Lady, a Shepherd mix, as well as two guinea pigs, Iris and Popcorn.
Dr. Amber Lee
I was raised in Texas and complete my undergrad degree at Texas A&M-Corpus Christi. I worked as a veterinary technician for 1.5 years before loading up my 3 huskies, 1 cat, and supportive husband to move to the beautiful island of Grenada to attend Veterinary School at St. George's University. I also obtained my Master's in Science in Wildlife Conservation while in Grenada, then completed my clinical rotations at North Carolina State University. After that my husband and I decided to move our furry pack to Arizona to settle and I started working for AZPetVet in 2020. Exotic pets, especially feathered and scaly ones, are my true veterinary passion, but I love furry cats and dogs as well!
I currently have 2 huskies and 2 cats, but I will continue to add to my family with exotic pets in the near future! When I'm not caring for your fur-babies, I enjoy lots of time with my own pets on hikes, at the dog park, and good restaurant patios! Traveling and food are my passions and there's nowhere in the world I don't want to explore! I look forward to getting to know you and your fur-babies!
