Doctors

Dr. Marla Lind

DVM

Dr. Marla Lind, DVM joined Morganside Veterinary Clinic in 2017. When she was 8 she decided she wanted to be a veterinarian. She graduated from Iowa State University and is currently a member of both the Wisconsin Veterinary Medical Association and the American Veterinary Medical Association. Dr. Marla’s attention to detail is a great asset to her work. Since her patients can’t talk, the details she gathers from conversations with clients, a pet’s history, the physical examination, and diagnostic tests are all important in determining the best care for each patient.

The most inspiring part of Dr. Marla’s job is observing the amazing bond that develops between pets and their people.

Dr. Marla has 2 cats and 1 dog. She loves going for long walks with her dog. She would also like to visit all of the national parks and would like to learn Spanish.

Dr. Nathan Monson

DVM

Dr. Nathan Monson D.V.M., visited his uncle (who is a veterinarian) when he was three years old. After he came home, he began telling everyone he was going to be a veterinarian when he grew up. Although Dr. Monson is not sure if he has fully grown up, three-year-old Nathan would be proud and not surprised to find out that he graduated from Iowa State University in 2008 and has been a veterinarian ever since. He began working at Morganside in the spring of 2020, so there is at least one good thing that happened in 2020!

Maya Hansen

Went to the University of Wisconsin River Falls and has a bachelor’s degree in business administration with an emphasis in Finance. Maya lives with her 3 dogs and 1 cat on a small family hobby farm. She enjoys being outdoors and with family and friends. What Maya enjoys most about working for Morganside Vet is that the people that work with her are more like her family than just coworkers. The clients here are also like family and you get to know their families and stories. It’s a great feeling to come to work every day and to be with a big family who love their pets and clients just like they are our family.

Madison College Hybrid Technician Program

Together with my partner Jake we have a small petting zoo at home; 3 cats, 2 dogs and 1 tortoise thats a bigger trouble maker than all the rest. We enjoy nature walks with the dogs (Edna and Jester), cozy couch time with the cats (Iggy, Waffles and Asuna), and enjoy the slower moments in life with our tortoise, Natsu. I believe every animal can teach us a lesson about enjoying life and all it has to offer.

Thing you love the most about working at Morganside Veterinary Clinic?
I enjoy sharing education with pet parents and working to create a balanced home for both human and pet members.
