David R. Hermann, DVM

Dr. Hermann was raised on a small hobby farm in Prior Lake, MN. He was active in 4-H with his brothers for many years. He began working for Dr. Bill Sweeney at Equine Medical Center as a high school student in 1977. After graduating from high school, he went on to Iowa State University and graduated from veterinary school in 1986. He returned to Equine Medical Center as a veterinarian. Dr. Kathy Ott and Dr. Hermann were married in 1995. In 1998, they purchased the clinic from Dr. Sweeney. In 2004, they moved the facility to its current location, changing the name to Cleary Lake Veterinary Hospital. Dr. Hermann's medical interests include surgery, dentistry, and practice management. In his free time, he enjoys reading and book collecting, hiking, cross country skiing, and working around the farm (he can often be found on his John Deere tractor). Dr. Hermann and Nemo the cat have a mutual understanding.
