Dr. Ashley Mitek
DVM, MS, DACVAA - Anesthesiologist
Dr. Mitek fell in love with anesthesiology and pain management after anesthetizing a sick horse during her last year of veterinary school. She is a Diplomate of the American College of Veterinary Anesthesia & Analgesia, and enjoys working with high-risk patients who need surgery. She was born and raised in the Washington, DC area and went to undergrad at Cornell University. After graduating from veterinary school at the University of Illinois, she stayed on as a rotating surgery, medicine and emergency intern, where she also completed her residency and Master’s degree in Anesthesiology.
For the past 7 years she has been teaching at the University of Illinois, and is excited to be in the mountains instead of flat cornfields! As one of the region's only board-certified anesthesiologists, she is excited to bring excellent anesthesiology and pain management care to Bridger’s patients.
When she is not in operating rooms, she is learning how to fly fish and enjoys hiking with her dog Winston.
