About Vet

As a dedicated veterinarian with a decade of experience, I've spent the past eight years specializing in emergency medicine for dogs and cats. My passion lies in tackling challenging cases in dermatology, nutrition, emergency care, and behavioral issues. I also take great pride in helping pet owners navigate the complexities of traveling with their pets, ensuring all health certificates are thoroughly evaluated and completed. Outside the clinic, I indulge in traveling, reading, and surfing—embracing adventure while staying committed to the well-being of your pets. License in Florida at the moment. Unable to prescribe for other states. Social Media: Instagram @joa.vet
