“Every day, I am still so thrilled to be given the opportunity to practice as a veterinarian. This profession has a wonderful legacy of honor and integrity, and I am proud to be part of that fabric. Providing best medicine to my patients and their families as they move through their lives is very important to me. From the first new puppy or kitten visit, through adulthood and into the last final, precious moments on earth gives a veterinarian the unique opportunity to experience all of life’s wonderful stages. Every patient is an individual and every family is, too. The glorious differences and variety of experiences make this a wonderful profession. Every day is different!”
