- About Vet
-
Dr. Cheng graduated with highest honors from Ross University School of Veterinary Medicine and has a special interest in topics including dermatology, nutrition, behavior, and senior pets with chronic conditions. She enjoys problem-solving that comes with medicine, and is passionate about being there for pets and their families when it matters most.
Dr. Cheng is known for her calm, reassuring presence and her ability to connect with both patients and their people during stressful moments. She believes that good medicine goes hand-in-hand with clear communication, compassion, and a little extra kindness.
When she’s not in the clinic, Dr. Cheng loves staying active with Pilates and hiking, exploring new places through travel, and unwinding with a good book. At home, she’s kept busy by her six animals, who constantly remind her why she chose this profession in the first place.
