DR. MASON OAKES

After graduating from Lawrence University with a Bachelor of Arts degree in Biology, Dr. Mason continued his studies at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, where he received his Doctor of Veterinary Medicine degree in 2013.

He then completed an intensive one-year internship at Veterinary Specialty Hospital of the Carolinas in Raleigh, NC, working closely with specialists in Emergency, Oncology, Surgery, and Internal Medicine.

Since returning to Madison, Dr. Mason has worked in emergency medicine and general practice for the past 8 years. A Madison native, Dr. Mason lives on the west side with his wife and two young kids, three cats, two goldfish, and one snail.
