Since graduating from Penn veterinary school in 2001 I’ve been working in general small animal hospitals so I understand and am very comfortable with the many problems dogs and cats can have. I love client education and think it is so important to explain everything at an appropriate level, making sure everyone is on the same page and my patients get the best care. In 2014 I became certified in veterinary medical acupuncture, and started offering housecall acupuncture and palliative care appointments while continuing to work in regular clinical practice.
