About Vet

Practicing medicine as a doctor since 2012, but providing veterinary medical care since 2001 as a veterinary technician first.

Since I was a little kid, I have always loved animals and helping those in need has always been a priority for me. I even started two nonprofit organizations as an adolescent and young adult to educate people on animal welfare topics and help rescue animals without homes.

I am originally from Puerto Rico, where I used to be a vet tech, and in 2008 I moved to the continental United States to pursue my lifelong goal of becoming a veterinarian. In 2012, I graduated from the University of Missouri’s College of Veterinary Medicine and began practicing general and emergency veterinary medicine in Las Vegas. In 2016, I transitioned into corporate veterinary medicine in San Diego, which later allowed me to relocate to Dallas, Texas.

In 2019, I fulfilled my vision of practicing boutique veterinary medicine by opening my own hospital. In less than six years, I received eleven ‘Best Veterinarian in DFW’ awards, an achievement that fills me with both pride and gratitude. In 2026, I decided to pursue a different path and explore telemedicine and other ways to help people and their pets.

Beyond my clinical work, I was also a regular columnist for a leading LGBTQ+ magazine in Texas. I have appeared as a veterinary expert on Univision, Telemundo, NBC, CBS, and Fox News. One of my most memorable opportunities was being featured in a national Bank of America commercial, where I shared my journey from humble beginnings to owning my own veterinary hospital.

I am also bilingual in English and Spanish, which allows me to connect with a diverse range of clients and provide the best possible care for their pets. I believe careful listening and empathy are vital traits needed to be able to take care of my patients. I feel incredibly fortunate for the path I’ve taken and I will always strive to help pets and the families who love them. I am looking forward to meeting you soon!

PS: I am both a dog and cat lover! My favorite ones are mutts, chihuahuas, golden retrievers, pitties, and sphinx cats, BUT I love them all! I have a perfect, little chihuahua named Bentley Gadea. :)

Under current Texas veterinary law, telemedicine consultations are limited to guidance and cannot include diagnosis or prescribing medications

I can tell he truly cares about his furry patients and wants to provide them and their humans with the best care possible. He was able to provide an excellent course of action along with peace of mind. Highly recommended.
