Veterinarians take an oath upon graduation from veterinary school to relieve animal suffering. As a veterinarian and animal advocate, I take this oath very seriously. In my practice, I seek to provide compassionate, competent care to my patients as well as educate my clients about responsible pet care. I encourage people to adopt animal companions from shelters, thereby saving lives, rather than buying from breeders. By rescuing animals in need of loving homes, both guardians and pets reap many benefits.

There are many difficult issues concerning the various uses of animals in our society today. It is my intention to raise awareness about the plight of non-human animals abused for food production, experimentation, entertainment, and other uses in our society. I hope to encourage people to adopt a plant-based whole foods diet, which demonstrates compassion for animals, responsible environmental stewardship, and healthy living. There are many ways one person can help animals in need.

I aspire to have a vegan-friendly integrative veterinary practice which incorporates animal advocacy through peaceful, constructive outreach and humane education. Please check out the rest of the site and feel free to contact me using the easy form on the contact page.
