About Us

Dr. Molly Musman
Molly Musman, DVM
Certified Hospice and Palliative Care Veterinarian

Dr. Molly Musman grew up in semi-rural Inverness, just outside Point  Reyes National Seashore. She earned her Bachelor's degree from UC Santa Cruz and went on to St. George's University in Grenada, West Indies. Dr. Musman did all of her clinical training at the University of Minnesota, and after graduation, went on to complete an Internship in Emergency and Critical Care Medicine at a private specialty hospital in the Bay Area. Since then, Dr. Musman has worked in many different kinds of clinics, but finds that general practice and family medicine is her favorite  because of the relationships she has formed with her patients’ families. Dr. Musman has been practicing since 2007 and has been consulted for second and third opinions not only because she is a thorough diagnostician, but also because she really listens to her clients and develops pragmatic plans that are rooted in comfort and feasibility.

Over the course of her years in practice, Dr. Musman has started to see a need for palliative care and support for families who are not yet ready to say goodbye to terminally ill companion animals. Dr. Musman completed her CHPV (Certified Hospice and Palliative Care Veterinarian) certification through the International Association of Animal Hospice and Palliative in September of 2023.  

Dr. Musman's interests include hiking, gardening, camping, and cooking. However, she rarely does any of these things because when not being a veterinarian, she is driving children to and from sports activities, tackling the never-ending piles of laundry and dishes, or negotiating screen time with teenagers.
