With 15 years of experience and 40,000 surgeries completed, I have focused my surgical career on providing safe, efficient sterilization surgery for dogs, cats, and rabbits. I also have experience and training in advanced reproductive surgeries such as pyometra, gravid or estrous ovariohysterectomy, and cryptorchid castration.
I understand and value the unique needs of animals and team members in a shelter environment. During my internship I was trained in shelter population health management, contagion control, behavioral assessment, and general shelter operating procedures. I have had one foot happily in the shelter world ever since.
In order to focus on my passion of shelter medicine, I am not scheduling relief shifts in general practice at this time. Check back for updates!
A Colorado native, I received a Biology degree with honors from Colorado State University in 2000. I received my veterinary degree from Colorado State University in 2005, and was one of two inductees in to the CSU/Dumb Friends League Shelter Medicine Internship program. I started Red Dog Relief in 2009, which allowed me to serve a wide variety of veterinary hospitals, shelters, and non-profit organizations.
Georgia was my beloved companion through veterinary school and helped me weather life as a new graduate. She taught me more lessons about love than I will ever be able to repay her for. She lost a brave battle with cancer in 2010, but her memory lives on in the inspiration she provides me to go the extra mile for homeless pets.
