Doctors

Diane Noll, D.V.M.

Upon graduating from vet school, Dr. Noll bought the Keosaqua Veterinary Clinic in Keosaqua, Iowa, where she grew the practice and was forced to build a new building.

In 1988, she sold the practice and she and her family moved to Mt. Pleasant, Iowa. She began a relief practice, filling in as a supply veterinarian for veterinarians across Southeast Iowa.

After eight years of traveling, Dr. Noll decided it was time to settle and venture out on her own again. She bought the New London practice from Dr. Ken Rayner in 1996, renaming it Hometown Veterinary Care. In 2001, she expanded her services and moved across the street into the current location.

Dr. Noll focuses mainly on small animal medicine, equine medicine & reproduction, ultrasound, and veterinary orthopedic manipulation. She strives to further her education and that of her staff by attending conferences, meetings, and specialized training courses.

Dr. Noll is the mother of four children who, together with her husband Ron, are a big help with clinic projects. Her current passion is her grandson, Kendrick.
