About Vet

I have 26 years of experience as a veterinarian (as well as 6 years prior as a technician before vet school), having had many years of practice in a very busy small animal emergency clinic for dogs and cats. I coordinated care between the emergency clinic with other specialists, and I am very good at helping work through problems, and I am a great communicator. When not on Vetster, I am a busy small animal relief Veterinarian, traveling amongst many states to provide in person care.

Developed a practice for equine reproduction, sport horse rehabilitation, neonatal care, and all facets of equine nutrition and care. Having overseen hundreds of foalings, with a special area of expertise in foaling mares, especially those with difficulty in foaling or getting in foal. Handling all facets of neonatal care from the routine to the problems associated with failure of passive transfer, neonatal isoerythrolysis, gastrointestinal disturbances and contracted limbs. In conjunction with that, over the years, developing a strong practice in sport horse medicine, and have been involved with hundreds of global pre-purchase exams, reviewing radiographs and helping clients through the pre-purchase process in foreign countries. Strong emphasis on equine lameness detection and evaluating radiographs. Experienced and proficient in all aspects of equine practice. Excellent communication skills, with a keen interest in life-long learning and improvement. Competed nationally in dressage as an accomplished amateur competitor for 35 years. 2000 Graduate of Washington State University College of Veterinary Medicine.

I wouldn't hesitate to book another appointment when needed. Compared to hauling my dog to the vet, this is truly convenient and easy.

I have been taking my cat to Vets offices my whole life and it never really was the best for my cats. Getting them in the carrier then in the car then out of the carrier and so on. They hated every single minute of it and I felt horrible! Seeing Dr. Julie Vergette with Primo today made me feel so much better and my cat is going to feel better too after he takes the medication that she prescribed! A+ in my book!! Thank you!

I reached out because my GSD has an ear issue. My appointment covered all my questions. Dr. Vergette understood my situation and helped my dog. I am going to use this service from here on out as my Linkin stresses with my local vet. Super convenient and affordable! Overall Experience: A+
