My Motivation

My passion for veterinary medicine started a long time ago. When I was around 6 years old, I visited the veterinary school at the University of Georgia. I was in awe of how animals could be helped for a variety of ailments. Since that time, it was my dream to join this amazing field. As I moved through my career as a general practitioner for cats and dogs, I realized that a new passion that I had discovered was end-of-life care. This is such an important service that we as veterinarians can provide to our patients. Through this, we are able to help manage beloved pets as they are nearing the end of their lives and provide a dignified and peaceful goodbye for them and their pet parents.
