Abby Siegel

HR Director/Owner

Abby Siegel is the co-owner and HR Director of Isthmus Veterinary Care. Growing up in Iowa, she was surrounded by a menagerie of animals, from dogs and cats to birds, donkeys, and goats. Her love of animals led her to study Biology at Boston University where she earned a Bachelor of Science in 2006. She went on to study Animals and Public Policy at Tufts Veterinary School where she met a nice, young veterinary student who would later become her husband!

After completing her master’s degree, Abby worked on sustainable food campaigns at the World Society for the Protection of Animals. This experience sparked her interest in vegetarian cooking, leading her to work in farm-to-table restaurants and eventually start her own personal chef business, Fiddlehead Foods, which specialized in local, seasonal, healthy cooking.

While the pandemic put a pause to her chef business, Abby is now thrilled to dedicate her time and expertise to Isthmus Veterinary Care. She lives in Madison with her husband, two kids, and three cats.
