Dr. Kristen Andrews (formerly Dr. Kristen Nelson) Owner/Primary Veterinarian Welcome! I am Dr. Kristen Andrews, the primary veterinarian and owner of Stockton Hill Animal Hospital. I am originally from Iowa but moved to Kingman after graduating from the College of Veterinarian Medicine at Iowa State University in 1995. I share my home with my cockatiel “JB, ” and pug “Chubbs.” In my free time I enjoy working out and enjoying the beautiful Arizona outdoors! I am also a huge fan of Star Wars and have quite a collection of props and costumes from the movie as well as other movies.Like many others, I wanted to be a veterinarian when I was little. Unfortunately, I had a weak stomach and had decided that I simply could not do it. However, I had such a strong desire to spend my life helping animals that I forced myself to overcome my fears and pursue a career in animal medicine. It was one of the best decisions I ever made and I have greatly enjoyed this profession for the past 10 years. I look forward to another 10 years taking care of pets and their owners at Stockton Hill Animal Hospital. |

Kourtney Lettau Receptionist Greetings! I am Kourtney and I reside on a small ranch with my husband just outside of Seligman. We have several animals however our main emphasis is our horses. Both my husband and I enjoy training young horses and turning them into trustworthy mounts. I have been a receptionist with Stockton Hill Animal Hospital since 2001. During this time I have met many wonderful pets as well as their owners. I moved to Arizona from California in 2000 where I was employed with another animal hospital for four years. The highlight of my experience there was learning about reptiles and their specialized care. Here at Stockton Hill Animal Hospital, I have had the pleasure of working with some of the finest veterinary professionals the industry has to offer. I can honestly state that Dr. Kristen Nelson and every one of us will ensure that your pet is indeed treated as one of our very own. |
