Veterinarian
Hi, I’m Dr. Siana Bollman, an Associate Veterinarian at Conley & Koontz Equine Hospital in Columbia City, Indiana. I earned both my Bachelor’s Degree in Animal Science and my Doctorate of Veterinary Medicine from Michigan State University, graduating with high honors in 2023. I've always been committed to excellence in veterinary medicine, and I’m proud to have received the J.P. Hutton - W.F. Riley Equine Award from MSU’s Department of Large Animal Clinical Sciences for outstanding abilities in equine surgery and medicine.
I officially joined the team at Conley & Koontz in May 2023, and I’ve loved every second that I've spent as a part of such a dedicated and skilled team. I'm always looking for ways to further my education and better care for our patients, and I became certified in Veterinary Medical Acupuncture through the Curacore Academy in 2025.
Favorite Part of my Job
One of the most rewarding parts of my job is working with performance horses and helping them achieve their full potential. There’s nothing quite like seeing a horse you’ve cared for succeed at its job, whether it’s in the show ring, on the trail, or in competition. When it comes to my other interests at work, I’m particularly passionate about sports medicine and emergency medicine. Being able to make a real difference when it matters most for our patients is both challenging and incredibly fulfilling.
Why I chose this profession
I’ve wanted to be a veterinarian for as long as I can remember. Growing up on my family’s farm in Sherwood, Michigan, I was surrounded by animals and immersed in the day-to-day rhythm of agricultural life. Horses have always had a special place in my heart — especially performance horses — and that lifelong passion naturally led me to equine veterinary medicine.
Personal Hobbies & Interests
When I’m not at the clinic, you’ll likely find me riding or showing hunter/jumpers — something I’ve been doing since I was four years old. I also love spending time outdoors with my husband, Adam, whether we’re working on our small horse farm or just enjoying a quiet day together.
I'm the proud owner of two dogs who have become a big part of my career at Conley & Koontz Equine Hospital and often accompany me to work: Reba McEntire, a spunky corgi, and George Strait, a laid-back beagle mix. If you stop by the clinic, there’s a good chance they’ll be there to greet you!
