My Motivation

Like many veterinarians, this career is a calling for me. I decided upon this profession when I was only seven years old. I never wanted to do anything else, so this defined my educational path. In private practice, I have sometimes had the opportunity to provide in-home euthanasia for clients who requested it. Most of the time, though, euthanasia was done in the hospital. While it is truly one of the hardest parts of my job, I believe that providing a peaceful passing to our four-legged family members is one of the most important things that I can do. I believe that our pets are most comfortable in their own environment, surrounded by those who love them most. After all, isn't that the most that any of us could wish for? I am honored to be able to provide a modicum of peace and comfort at a very difficult time.
