Assistant Professor
University of Florida
Gainesville, Florida
Dr. Regier is currently an assistant professor in small animal soft tissue surgery at the University of Florida (UF). She completed her DVM at Oklahoma State University, and thereafter completed a small animal rotating internship at Colorado State University (CSU). She subsequently stayed on to complete her master of science degree and small animal surgery residency at CSU. Dr. Regier became a Diplomate, American College of Veterinary Surgeons in 2018 and became an ACVS Fellow, Minimally Invasive Surgery (Soft Tissue Small Animal) in 2021. Her major research interest has focused on soft tissue surgery and primarily gastrointestinal surgery, tissue viability, and vascular blood flow. During her tenure as an assistant professor at UF, she has collaborated with various departments to improve not only the surgical management and treatment options for patients effected with surgical gastrointestinal disease, but also to create innovative ideas and expand the knowledge of various veterinary fields. She has completed review articles, retrospective studies, and several cadaveric studies evaluating different surgical techniques in the GI tract and different techniques used to assess tissue viability and microvascular blood flow, which have been both published or accepted in peer-review journals and presented at a number of conferences including ACVS and SVSTS.
Dr. Regier has also previously performed several studies evaluating suturing techniques and skin closures. She has been awarded extramural grants to perform clinical trials to assess microvasculature and intestinal viability in dogs with intestinal foreign body obstructions and GDV using novel techniques, which is currently underway. Her other research interests focus on soft tissue surgery including brachycephalic airway syndrome, laryngeal paralysis, MIS, and other aspects of gastrointestinal surgery.
