Dr. Selavka
Dr. Selavka earned her B.S. from Northeastern University, her M.S. from the University of Hawaii, and her V.M.D from the University of Pennsylvania in 1995. During her pre-veterinary studies, she became a Certified Veterinary Technician (C.V.T.) and was fortunate to have the opportunity to work in many facets of the animal field, including The Honolulu Zoo, The Philadelphia Zoo, Angell Animal Medical Center in Boston, and Window Rock Navajo Indian Reservation in Arizona.
Upon graduating from veterinary school, Dr. Selavka completed an internship in small animal surgery and medicine at the New Haven Central Veterinary Hospital in New Haven, CT. She then went on to a residency at Tufts University in Emergency Medicine and Critical Care. In 1999, Dr. Selavka became part of the senior staff in general medicine and surgery at Angell Memorial Animal Medical Center in Springfield, MA, and remained there until the hospital’s closing in 2007.
Dr. Selavka specializes in general medicine, pediatrics, pain management, and end-of-life care. She has earned awards that attest to her standard of care, including the “Bedside Manner Award” earned in veterinary school and the Sturbridge Times “Readers Choice Award” naming Baystate Mobile Veterinary Services as “Best of Sturbridge” for ten years and counting.
In her personal life, Dr. Selavka is married to Carl “Matt” Selavka, her husband of 38 years, and she has a daughter named Chloe. She also has a dog named Wren and 3 cats (Steve, Juniper, and Tyler).
She enjoys travel, horseback vacations, cooking, gardening, photography, and music.
