Summary
Relatively new veterinarian with almost 3 years of practice under my belt. I have a strong passion in developing professional and friendly relationships with my clients. I have a special interest in wound treatment and management as well as dental procedures in small animals. I believe strongly in providing my clients the best recommendations but also offering secondary and tertiary plans that meet their financial and moral goals for their pets. When the time comes for end of life discussions and care I believe my clients have trust in me to help them make appropriate decisions for their family.
