About Vet

Hi I’m Dr. Phan, welcome to my page!

My goal is to make sure you leave your appointment feeling like your concerns have been addressed to the best of my ability. I treat all my patients as if they were my own. I know it can be hard to get an appointment at a local veterinarian right now but I hope that you won’t see a difference in the quality of care I can provide. I strive to give you all the options so you can make the best decision for your pet.

A little about me: I also work at a low cost community clinic. I went to vet school in Tennessee and really enjoyed mountain life temporarily but am really a beach gal. I have dogs, cats, chickens, tortoises, birds, fish, frogs, and one human child. There is also a very patient husband involved and technically the fish are his hobby. I hope to meet you and your pet soon!

A note about exotic animals: I can see your small furry critters and reptiles if you cannot find a vet that specializes in these animals but I am not an exotic veterinary specialist.

Dr. Phan was super knowledgeable and careful about what meds to give my guinea pig. She also made sure to make a backup plan in case the first plan didn’t work, ensuring our piggy gets better.
