Dr. Ashley Rutter

Dr. Rutter was raised in the Birmingham, AL area. She completed her Bachelor of Science degree in Microbiology from Auburn University in 2013 and graduated from Auburn University College of Veterinary Medicine in 2017. Since then, she has practiced in clinics around the Birmingham area, providing small animal and urgent care services.

Dr. Rutter strongly believes in preventative medicine and early detection of health concerns in pets. Her professional interests include soft tissue surgery, cardiology, and geriatric care. Outside of work, she enjoys hiking, traveling, reading, and completing puzzles.

She is a member of the American Veterinary Medical Association and is Fear Free Certified. Dr. Rutter's love for geriatric medicine stems from the loss of her beloved dog, Sadie, to chronic kidney disease in 2021. She now has two cats named Archer and Grey Cat and recently adopted a stray cattle dog puppy named Lana.
