Dr. Saelinger is the founder and CEO of Cardiac Vet, Inc., a teleconsulting service for interpretation of cardiac diagnostic studies and a mobile echo service for veterinarians (cardiacvet.com). Her clinical interests include medical and surgical treatment of arrhythmias. She is one of two cardiologists in the United States who specialize in implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD) surgery, programming and defibrillation. She also customizes pacemaker programming for individual canine patients. She has vast experience and a long-time special interest in the pathophysiology & treatment of arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy (AC) of Boxers and English Bulldogs. You can reference her publications on this topic and others on the Cardiac Vet webpage under meet the team.
Dr. Saelinger spoke at the AVMA conference in 2020 on cardiac emergencies and provides regular CE locally and nationwide. Her commitment to education is also reflected in the cardiology internship program she directed from 2012 – 2023, securing cardiology residencies for 93% of her interns (25 of 27). She continues to assist part time in this training program.
Dr. Saelinger is a graduate of The Schreyer Honors College at the Pennsylvania State University. She obtained her veterinary degree from the University of Pennsylvania in 2007. She then completed a one-year rotating internship at the University of Florida in Gainesville, followed by a cardiology internship and cardiology residency at Louisiana State University from 2008-2012. In 2012, she successfully completed the ACVIM exams and the Cardiology specialty boards to become a Diplomate (Board Certified Cardiologist) of the ACVIM in the specialty of Cardiology.
To help Dr. Saelinger achieve her mission of providing world-class cardiac care to more pets, she created Cardiac Vet, Inc. Cardiac Vet employs a team of board-certified veterinary cardiologists and highly skilled, cardiology focused, veterinary technicians. We are currently able to perform mobile echocardiograms throughout the major metro areas of California. Dr. Saelinger also evaluates patients and meets with pet owners in person in San Francisco at SFAMC and in Los Angeles at VCA ASEC.
