About Vet

I’ve wanted to be a veterinarian since I was a little girl growing up in south Florida. Having never seen snow and believing that 50 degrees Fahrenheit was cold, I pursued my undergraduate degree in Animal Science at Cornell University. Boy was I misguided about the weather! My studies did, however, further affirm my desire to take care of animals and I returned to my home state to earn my veterinary degree from the University of Florida. A glutton for punishment, I then decided to return to the north and completed my internship in small animal medicine at the Animal Medical Center in NYC.

By that point I was in love, with both the northeast and my new husband, and I made NY both my home and place of work. I have been practicing small animal medicine in NYC for over 13 years, and I cannot imagine doing anything more fulfilling with my career. I passionately love working with and caring for animals.

When I’m not taking care of my patients, I am loving life with my husband, 3 kids and our dog (we had 2 dogs until we recently lost one of our best four-legged friends in early 2020). I also enjoy cooking, playing tennis, and curling up on the couch with a good novel.

Dr. Brenda was really approachable and understanding. She listened to my concerns & offered different options on what might help, as well as her thoughts on them. My senior dog gets really anxious going into the vet’s office so this was definitely an amazing experience for both of us!

 I was very pleased with the outcome of this visit. While my cat really does need to be seen in order to have a thorough evaluation, at least with this visit I was able to establish a relationship and be able to get a sedative for my cat who is absolutely wild whenever we try to put her into a carrier. Now we will be able to take her in and get her the proper care she deserves. thank you Dr.
