About Vet

I have been practicing small animal medicine since 1996, with my professional focus dedicated exclusively to the health and well-being of dogs and cats. Over the years, I have cared for pets at every stage of life, from puppies and kittens to senior companions, providing guidance on preventive care, nutrition, common medical conditions, and chronic disease management. I believe in building trust with pet owners through clear communication, compassion, and evidence-based veterinary care, helping families make informed decisions so their pets can enjoy long, healthy, and happy lives. I joined Vetster in July 2026.

She clearly read what I submitted to schedule the appointment. Her questions indicated we were on the same page right from the start. In the end the second opinion I sought was delivered quickly with insights and experience I did not have in the matter. In summary - Very little wait time - a short meaninful discussion and Good advice. I would do this again if the need arose. Thank You, Doctor Ghotbi

Dr. Ghotbi provided me with valuable information on how pain medications affect dogs and different affects of different pain medications for arthritic pain in dogs. She clearly, kindly and patiently educated me on which medications would be better to use ongoing versus which ones should only be use rarely for acute flare ups of pain. Dr. Ghotbi was very patient and understanding and listened to my information regarding Charlie and his specific situation and health status. She treated "Charlie the individual" instead of simply "a dog." Thank you so much for your time and expertise.
