About Vet

I have been a small animal veterinarian for 33 years, working as an associate and then owning and operating a busy 6-doctor practice in the Philadelphia suburbs, with a focus on pain management and surgery. My special interest is in the identification and treatment of pain - I became a Certified Veterinary Pain Practitioner (CVPP) in 2011, and lecture nationally to veterinarians and vet nurses on techniques of identifying pain, and also the use of laser therapy and other non-pharma tools for the treatment of pain. I am a past-president of the International Veterinary Academy of Pain Management.

Happily, I am now settled in beautiful AZ, with my husband and two rescue dogs and an adopted Sonoran Desert Tortoise (ask me about them!). I provide volunteer veterinary care to the Salt River Wild Horse Management group, and to a local cat rescue. A little of my love for animals must have rubbed off on our daughters, as one is an ER/ICU credentialed veterinary technician, and the other is a marine biologist.

Telemedicine fills a great void in veterinary medicine - my goal is to help you through any emergent concern, and work together to determine the best course of action for you and your beloved pet.

I recently had a Vetster appointment with Dr. Jennifer Johnson] for my dog, and I cannot recommend her highly enough. She is incredibly kind, patient, and deeply knowledgeable. What really set this experience apart was how familiar she is with our local area—it made her advice feel much more practical and tailored to our specific environment than a generic consultation. I genuinely wish we had a vet with her expertise practicing locally. If you're looking for someone who truly listens and cares, she is an excellent choice!
