Jacqueline Falke, DVM

Jacqueline Falke stands out as one of Everhart Veterinary Medicine’s most dedicated and passionate veterinarians. Originally hailing from the suburbs of Cleveland, Ohio, Jacqueline holds a degree from Allegheny College. She initially channeled her fascination with science and medicine into a career in pharmaceutical sales, an experience that paved the way for her to achieve a doctorate in Veterinary Medicine at Michigan State University. This marked the beginning of her journey to fulfill her true passion for safeguarding the health and well-being of animals. Further adding to her credentials, Jacqueline earned a master’s in public health from the prestigious Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health.

Beyond her professional commitments, Jacqueline actively volunteers for a Boxer Rescue and engages in research trips to advance scientific knowledge. Her endeavors include tracking and studying leatherback sea turtles in Trinidad to gain insights into their behavior and migration patterns, contributing to future conservation efforts. Her most recent project involves collaborating with a penguin colony in Patagonia. This initiative aims to investigate the various factors leading to the decline of the Magellanic penguin population, with the ultimate goal of stabilizing their numbers.

Jacqueline’s affection for animals extends beyond the exotic; she proudly assumes the role of “pet parent” to a diverse array of dogs, cats, and even chickens. Residing on a small farm, she expresses her love for gardening and outdoor activities. While she enjoys exploring new destinations and seeking adventures, Jacqueline equally cherishes the tranquility of home life with her pets. Notably, one of her dogs has even graced the cover of the Milkbone box.
