K-State College of Veterinary Medicine Speakers
Rachel Allbaugh,
DVM
Resident, Ophthalmology
Dr. Allbaugh received her DVM degree from Iowa State
University in 2004. She completed an internship in small animal
medicine and surgery at Carolina Veterinary Specialists in
Greensboro, North Carolina. Dr. Allbaugh came to Kansas State
University in 2005 and is currently in her second year of a
three-year residency in veterinary ophthalmology. Dr. Allbaugh’s
passion for veterinary ophthalmology began with her own cat's
nearly blinding eye disease. Since that time she has worked with
numerous veterinary ophthalmologists, participated in research
studies, and been a part of intense clinical training so that
she can help teach others how to save vision in animals and why
everyone should love veterinary ophthalmology.
Harriet Davidson,
DVM, MS, Diplomate ACVO
Professor, Ophthalmology
Dr. Davidson received her DVM in 1985 and then completed her MS
degree and a residency in 1990 at Michigan State University. She
completed a Fellowship in mucosal immunology at Wayne State
University School of Medicine in 1992. She joined the faculty of
Kansas State University in 1992 as an Assistant Professor. In
1994 she left to pursue other goals. During that time she
maintained a private ophthalmology practice and was a clinical
instructor at North Carolina State University College of
Veterinary Medicine. In 1997 she returned to Kansas State
University. Her time is divided between clinical patients,
research and teaching.
