About Us

Shane C. Baird, DVM

I was born and raised in Boise, Idaho, where, through my youth, I spent as much time in the wilderness as possible, which was often on horse back. I came to Colorado State University, where I met my wife, Heather, and she hasn’t let me leave yet! We currently live in Evergreen, CO with our small herd of horses. I have been associated with Mobile Vet since 2002, first as an associate, and now as the owner. Horses and their health has always been a passion for me, and I am grateful for the chance to earn a living doing something I love.

P. Marie Bartling, DVM, Certified Veterinary Acupuncturist

I was raised in Fort Collins, Colorado and “informed” my family that we should remain in the area when I was very young, so that I might have the chance to go to veterinary school. I learned horse behavior with no less than a “crash course” when my mom bought us mustangs as young kids. The bond between human and horse has been my strongest passion; from teaching children about horse care, to driving a draft team at Christmas, and ultimately, avidly pursuing a career to serve the medical needs of horses. I completed my veterinary education at CSU and served as an intern for Arizona Equine Medical and Surgical Centre in Phoenix. I enjoyed being part of that large and sophisticated practice, but returned to Colorado to be near family and friends. I practiced both small and large animal medicine for three years before joining MVS. During that time I also became certified in acupuncture and have been amazed and privileged to use a new tool to help animals be at their best. I love my job, my patients, and my clients. I strive to achieve the highest medical standards and best working relationship with my clients, trainers, and colleagues.

Alex K. Turner, DVM

I am a native of Golden, CO and a Golden High School alumni. I attended Colorado State University for undergraduate as well as veterinary school. After graduation I completed an internship at Weatherford Equine Medical Center in Weatherford, TX. After 2 years in Texas, I spent 3 years at a surgical referral center in Reno, NV before having the opportunity to return home to the Jefferson County area. I currently live in Arvada with my beautiful wife Jaci and daughter Keeli. I am lucky that everyday I go to work in the profession that I have worked towards since the 1st grade.
