Marty grew up pet-deprived in a family with allergies. Upon graduating from Veterinary School at Iowa State University in 1981, she soon made up for lost time. She moved to Wisconsin and married a dairy veterinarian, Dr. Dan Griffiths. There she started the Brownsville/Lomira Small Animal Clinic in 1982. They are expanding the practice into a state-of-the-art facility. Dr. Greer works extensively with clients who breed and compete with their dogs. In 2002, she opened the International Canine Semen Bank-Wisconsin, allowing breeders to preserve their dog’s semen for use at another time or a remote location. She and Dr. Griffiths also own CheckIn Veterinary, CheckOut Veterinary (a patented Drive-Through small animal clinic) in Sun Prairie WI, and Marshall Pet Care.
Dr. Greer also serves as the Director for Veterinary Services at Revival Animal Health, a company dedicated to helping dog breeders achieve their best outcomes.
They have 2 adult children, Katy and Karl and 2 grandsons. She raises and shows Pembroke Welsh Corgis and Danish Swedish Farmdogs. On their hobby farm, they have raised dairy heifers and lambs for 4-H, and have llamas and draft horses. In addition, they raised and trained 7 Canine Companions for Independence (CCI) dogs who have served their handlers, allowing them access to their communities.
Dr. Greer has contributed to pharmaceutical and nutritional research as an investigator for Abbott Laboratory, Deprenyl Animal Health, Pfizer Animal Health, and Hill's Pet food Corporation. She was appointed by Governor Jim Doyle to a position on the Wisconsin Veterinary Examining Board of the Department of Regulation and Licensing. In 2005, she returned to school part-time, receiving a law degree at Marquette University. She is the Board Chair for National Animal Interest Alliance. She is on the board for the American Veterinary Medical Law Association and is a former board member of the Society for Veterinary Medical Ethics.
She and Dr. Griffiths are serious foodies, love to travel, and are investors in the brewery Fifth Ward, in Oshkosh Wisconsin.
