Dr. S  

Dr. Carl Schellenberger
Veterinarian/Co-Owner

I grew up just outside North Freedom and attended Reedsburg High School.  I graduated from Iowa State University in 1974.  I practiced for one year in Tomah, WI before returning to the Baraboo area to open my own practice, "Schellenberger Veterinary Clinic," in 1975.  This business, started in a converted garage, grew in stages over the years to become Hill-Dale Veterinary Hospital.

I personally specialize in dentistry and knee surgeries.  The hospital’s emphasis is complete physical exams and proactive medicine rather than reactive.

I am a member of the American Veterinary Medical 
Association, Wisconsin Veterinary Medical Association and I am very active in my church.  I enjoy golfing, camping and hunting deer in Colorado.  My wife, Grace, and I have been married almost 35 years and have two married children. 



Dr. Mara E. Doughty
Veterinarian/Co-Owner

I joined Hill-Dale Veterinary Hospital in January 2004, and became a partner on January 1, 2006.  I moved to Baraboo from Marinette, WI where I practiced companion animal medicine for six years.  After completing my undergraduate studies at UW-Madison, I earned a doctor of veterinary medicine degree in 1996 from Iowa State University.  I completed my internship at the Friendship Hospital for Animals in Washington, DC. Currently I am working to obtain certification with the American Board of Veterinary Practitioners.

I enjoy internal medicine, dermatology, animal behavior and ultrasonography.  My memberships include the American Veterinary Medical Association, the American Animal Hospital Association and the Wisconsin Veterinary Medical Association.  I am also a committee member of the National Board of Veterinary Medical Examiners.

I enjoy golfing and boating with my two boxers, Bubba and Gunner (see them on the 
Featured Pets page).  In Marinette I was active in the local Rotary Club, the Chamber of Commerce, Boys & Girls Club, Tri-County Dog Training Club and the Spokes and Folks bicycle club.

Office Manager

I joined Hill-Dale in June of 2004 after moving back to Baraboo.  My husband, Jeff and I were living in the Philadelphia area before returning to my home town.  We are the proud parents of Ava Grace, born 3/20/07.  We have a large "herd" of feline and equine friends, too numerous to mention names!

I enjoy spending time with all of the above!  I love the peace and quiet offered by this quaint town.  I am happy to be back in Baraboo, closer to my family.  I am especially close each day of the work week as Dr. Schellenberger is my father!
