Krista Gibson, DVM
Veterinarian
Dr. Gibson grew up in Scottsdale and left many years ago to pursue a career as a veterinarian. She graduated from the University of Wisconsin Madison Veterinary School in 1996. Her adventures took her all over the country and finally came back full circle to Scottsdale where she is now the proud owner of Kierland Animal Clinic. She spends her free time with her husband Tom, four dogs, Scooter, Badger, Betty, and Bindi, and two cats, Sherman and Princess Fiona. She enjoys mountain biking, painting, and spending time with family and friends.
Leigh Ann Stastny, DVM
Veterinarian
Dr. Stastny grew up in Omaha, Nebraska. She attended UNL for undergrad and Kansas State University for veterinary school. Upon graduation in 1995, she moved to Phoenix and has called the desert. “home” ever since. She loves helping clients care for their beloved fur babies. She enjoys soft tissue surgery and everyday wellness care for her patients. She has developed a passion for shelter medicine in the past several years. She loves the challenges that shelter medicine has to offer and finds fulfillment in helping rescue pets heal and find their fur-ever homes.
In her spare time, she is “momma” to 3 very active dogs ( all foster fails) and 1 cat ( also a foster fail). She does acrylic painting, alcohol inks, acrylic pouring, and some crafting from time to time. She loves to create and get lost in the creative process.
Nikki
Veterinary Assistant / Operations Manager
I graduated from Pima Medical Institute in December 2017. I’ve been working for KAC for 3 years. My favorite part of my career is educating clients on the ways to keep their fur babies happy and healthy. I have a lot of experience with bottle baby kittens.
In my free time, I enjoy bowling, playing board games, cooking, and spending time with my teenage son. I have 3 cats: Hades, Maus, and Scully.
Eric
Veterinary Assistant
I’ve been part of Kierland Animal Clinic for about 4 years now. My favorite part of the job is doing dental prophies and anything related to in-house lab work. And of course, meeting the endless stream of pups and kitties that come through our doors. Outside of work I spend time at home with my cat Johnny Walker, am a videogame enthusiast, and like to pretend I have a decent singing voice and sense of humor, although the latter is mostly jokes of the groan-inducing kind.
Alexis
Lead Customer Service Representative
I have been working with this amazing team at Kierland Animal Clinic for 2 years now. I enjoy helping clients feel at ease knowing their pets are in good hands. I love being able to work with and help all the rescues that do so much for the animals. Playing with all the fur babies is always a plus! In my free time, I enjoy taking my 4 dogs to the park, and playing board games with friends and family!
