Dr. Christina Swindall
Dr. Swindall is a veterinarian and owner of Cypress Animal Hospital. Wanting to be a veterinarian ever since she was 4 years old, she graduated from Colorado State University’s veterinary medicine program in 2002 after first receiving her Bachelor’s degree in Biology from Boise State University. While in school, she expressed interest not only in the care of dogs and cats, but also exotic animals. Her love of all creatures from the tiniest lizard to the largest elephant led to numerous internships at various zoos across the United States from Utah to Colorado to Tennessee to Florida to Rhode Island and to New York. Upon graduating from veterinary school, she came back home to California and began working in a very busy multi-doctor practice in the valley. However, she found she preferred the more intimate setting a single doctor practice offered. She initially worked as a relief veterinarian for Cypress and then grew to take over and eventually become part owner 10 years ago. She enjoys all aspects of medicine and surgery but especially has gained interest and expertise in chronic diseases such as diabetes and kidney disease. Because her mother is completely blind, she has always has a special interest in ophthalmology which also led her to additional training at UC Davis. She has been married 23 years now and has 2 handsome sons, now ages 13 and 10. She is proud that they are both Boy Scouts and enjoys being active with them and seeing them grow in the program. She is also of Native American descent and is very active with her Tribe holding a seat on the Tribal Council. Through her tribe’s efforts to save sacred sites, she is also President of the Friends of Whittier Narrows organization. This work keeps her very busy working with various governmental entities and universities. She has also become a published author, helping to write the Tribe’s first book on their history (Toypurina – the Joan of Arc of California). She also enjoys playing piano – professionally in the past, but just for fun now. She hopes you find Cypress Animal Hospital unique – a place where you’re treated as one of our own in a facility that can offer the latest and most advanced diagnosis.
