Kim Girouard, D.V.M.
Dr. Kim Girouard was born in Black River Falls, Wisconsin in 1951. After spending as much time with his grandparents on their small dairy farm as he could convince his parents to allow, his family moved to Anoka, Minnesota when he was starting school. He graduated high school when he was seventeen years old in 1969. After working for four years, he moved west to study for a career in either Marine Zoology or Veterinary Medicine. The many summers growing up visiting his grandparents' farm definitely influenced his decision towards veterinary medicine. He graduated Summa Cum Laude with a Bachelor of Science degree in Zoology from Oregon State University in 1978. After working for a year to help pay for medical school, he entered the first class of the Oregon State University College of Veterinary Medicine and graduated in 1983. After two years practicing medicine in Vancouver, Washington, he joined Keizer Veterinary Clinic in 1985. Dr. Girouard has taken advanced training in acupuncture and became board certified in veterinary acupuncture in 2001. His other areas of interest include reconstructive plastic surgery, general surgery, and internal medicine.
In addition to his professional career Dr. Girouard has been a board member of the Keizer Chamber of Commerce, Chairman of the Keizer Iris Festival, board member and past president of the Keizer Rotary Club. He is currently on the board of directors for the Willamette Valley Humane Society, the Keizer Rotary Foundation, and the McNary Golf Club.
Dr. Girouard lives in Keizer with his wife Susie, and when unwinding enjoys golf, tennis, camping, and cycling. He has two children. Michelle lives outside Portland and has two children. Ryan graduated from McNary High school in 2002 and is
currently attending college in California.
