Dr. Yoder Retires After 46 Years as Large Animal Vet
from Hillcrest Academy
Back in 1978 when Dr. Sheldon Yoder ‘70 first began practicing veterinary medicine, for 12 years he worked on his own, building his practice to serve over 80 dairies and 250 clients who farrowed pigs. In 1984, he built the clinic we know today on the vacant lot located at 405 6th Street, Kalona, an ideal spot from which to serve Amish clients. He hired an additional vet, he expanded, updated, and evolved the practice over time. Now, after 46 years, that work has come to an end. On Monday, April 22, Dr. Yoder handed the Kalona Veterinary Clinic keys over to new owners and enjoyed his first official day of retirement with wife Letha (Mullet ‘70).
