Bethany Cleaver, DVM
Dr. Bethany Cleaver is an associate veterinarian and part of the 2023-2024 rotating intern class at Pieper Veterinary. Dr. Cleaver was born and raised in the Cayman Islands, and graduated from the University of New Hampshire with a BS in zoology and minor in animal behavior. She obtained her degree in veterinary medicine from St. Matthew's University, and has a special clinical interest in small animal internal medicine and surgery.
Growing up on an island, Dr. Cleaver spent much of her life around the water and entered a competitive swimming career which took her to many international competitions. After she graduated high school, she backpacked through Southeast Asia and traveled to South Africa to volunteer at a primate rehabilitation center. Over the next six months working at the center, she found herself with a passion to work towards a career with animals.
