Are you looking for a veterinarian with expertise that bridges traditional and holistic care? In 20+ years as licensed veterinarian with a passion for helping pets thrive through innovative, compassionate care for over 30,000 animals. With over 2 decades of experience, I specialize in blending the best of Western medicine—like vaccinations, blood work, and surgeries—with holistic approaches such as acupuncture, Chinese herbal treatments, essential oils, and ozone therapy. Whether it’s guiding pet owners toward better dietary choices or healing wounds with advanced therapies, I’m here to provide solutions that improve the lives of pets and their families. My Journey into Veterinary Medicine Growing up, I always dreamed of becoming a veterinarian. But like many journeys, mine took a few detours. I started my professional path as an electrical engineer, drawn to the logic and problem-solving of the field. While I enjoyed the challenge, I quickly realized I didn’t want to spend my life behind a computer screen. That’s when I returned to my childhood passion and pursued veterinary school. My engineering background has given me a unique perspective on diagnostics and problem-solving in veterinary medicine, allowing me to approach complex cases with precision and care. Why Choose Me? I’ve built a career on going beyond the basics of veterinary care. My holistic consultations are tailored to each pet’s specific needs, addressing everything from post-surgical recovery to chronic conditions. For example: • Acupuncture: A safe, non-invasive therapy that supports pain management, recovery, and overall wellness. • Ozone Therapy: An advanced treatment that promotes healing, strengthens the immune system, and combats infections—perfect for pets who haven’t responded to traditional treatments. • Dietary Guidance: Helping pet owners transition from processed dry foods to healthier, more natural options that improve vitality and reduce inflammation. I’ve worked with dogs, cats, rabbits, and rodents, and I bring a patient, empathetic approach to every consultation. Professional Highlights • Experienced Holistic Practitioner: I was fortunate to train under leading experts in veterinary acupuncture and holistic medicine during veterinary school. I’ve continued this journey by completing certifications in acupuncture and ozone therapy. • Author and Educator: I co-authored a chapter in a veterinary textbook and served as a teaching assistant for acupuncture courses, helping other professionals adopt holistic practices. • Business Leadership: I co-owned a veterinary practice, balancing the demands of patient care with the complexities of running a clinic. What Can I Do for You? I’m here to collaborate with you on a variety of projects. Whether you’re looking for expert advice on holistic veterinary care, need help creating content for your pet-related business, or want to develop educational materials for pet owners, I can help. My services include: • Writing and editing articles, blog posts, and eBooks on veterinary topics. • Providing expert insights on holistic veterinary care for your projects. • Developing client-friendly guides for pet care, including topics like post-surgical recovery, dietary changes, and alternative therapies. • Crafting compelling and accurate content for veterinary clinics, pet product companies, or educational platforms. A Little About Me When I’m not working, you’ll find me learning new skills or enjoying the outdoors. I’ve completed three century rides (100-mile bike rides) and several shorter cycling events, which have taught me the value of perseverance and preparation. I’m also a piano player and a lifelong learner, currently diving into Portuguese as I prepare for an eventual move to Portugal. Most importantly, I understand how much pets mean to their families. My goal is to empower pet owners with the knowledge and tools they need to give their animals the best possible care. Let’s Work Together Have a project in mind? I’d love to hear about it!
