"Let food be your medicine & medicine be your food"- Socrates.

Dr. Abby Strobbe is a caring, compassionate, enthusiastic, and hardworking veterinarian. Dr. Abby is an integrative veterinarian, meaning that she offers traditional wellness care as well as holistic options for pets. Not all animals are alike, and she uses her tools to provide individualized health plans for pets.
If you choose to hire Dr. Abby to help you maintain and improve your pet’s health, you will be working with a well-rounded doctor. She offers traditional options such as wellness examinations, laboratory testing, nutrition counseling, vaccinations, and prescription medications. Dr. Abby also offers holistic options such acupuncture, whole food supplements, herbal therapies, Alpha Stim M treatments and Assisi Loop therapy. She works hard to offer options within owner’s budgets, and she respects the opinions and observations that her clients have regarding their pet’s needs. Owners know their pets the best, and Dr. Abby partners with her clients to ensure their pets are receiving the care they deserve.
Originally Abby’s Road Veterinary care was a housecall practice. Dr. Abby saw a need for pets and owners to be able to stay in their homes for veterinary care. This type of care is ideal for frightened cats, busy owners, families with multiple animals, and owners seeking individualized care for their animals from the comfort of their own homes.
Eventually Dr. Abby saw the need to offer clients the option to meet her at a centralized location. She has partnered with the fine folks at Wholesome Pet Essentials in Ankeny, Ia. She offers the same care as she would within owner’s homes at her weekend pop up clinics within WPE. The best thing about working within Wholesome Pet Essentials is that the animals walk into a friendly space full of amazing smells. They are certain they are at their favorite store to pick out their favorite treats, and they make a stop to see Dr. Abby for their healthcare. Dr. Abby enjoys working within Wholesome Pet Essentials because the owners and employees are caring pet lovers who share her
compassion for nutrition and pet health.
Covid-19 changed the framework of veterinary medicine, and in response Dr. Abby started to offer telehealth consultations for owners throughout the United States. She speaks with owners who are experiencing challenging
situations with their pets, she can offer suggestions regarding individualized wellness care, and she offers nutrition consultations. She is also available to lend a caring ear for pet owners sorting through their thoughts and feelings
regarding choices with ill and elderly pets. Dr. Strobbe cannot legally diagnose or prescribe prescription medications over the phone, but she can offer her valued opinion regarding resources and avenues to explore to help owners and
pets in need. She can work with pet owners who are not in her immediate area to find like-minded veterinarians within an owner’s location, and she has recourses she can recommend regarding supplementation and holistic options
for pets.
