Alexandra Ubell

Veterinarian

Dr. Ubell hails from New England and moved back to the Boston area after receiving her DVM from Michigan State University in 2013. She has moved around a bit since graduating, working in private practice and shelter medicine before utilizing her knowledge of epidemiology and public health to work in case investigation for COVID-19 at the start of the pandemic.

Dr. Ubell has since returned to working primarily with pets and has been providing virtual care through telehealth services at a time when veterinary clinics are overwhelmed, providing clients with guidance right at home. She also participates in neighborhood wellness and vaccine clinics for animals who may not see a veterinarian regularly.

In addition to her veterinary work, Dr. Ubell enjoys spending time hiking in nearby wooded areas with her heart-dog Fiona and coming back home to Scooter, her 3.5 legged midland painted turtle who has been with her since veterinary school. She is currently learning guitar and making more paint-by number pieces than she has room to hang on her walls!
