About Vet

Hi! I am Phelix and I am so happy you are here :)

A little about me: I have been practicing as a veterinary provider since 2010 and have been in the veterinary medical field for just about 20 years now! I have a bachelor’s degree in biology and have currently been working on my master’s with a PHd also in Biology. I primarily practice in companion animal medicine, specializing in anesthesia, surgery and orthopedics. I have a passion for delivering informative, safe, effective and reliable veterinary services to every patient and owner of mine with a fear free experience for all. When I am not working I have fun with my little family doing all sorts of things. I have a little kingdom of animals of my own including: Batman- Old English Bulldog Master Splinter- Mexican Hairless Dog Reptar- Ragdoll/Domestic long hair mix Dirt Cake- Domestic Medium Hair Milhouse - Maine Coone And I also have 2 axolotls named Ickus and Krumm!

Little known fact: I am a stand up comic and I also own a jewelry business :)

Hope to meet you soon!
