I pursued veterinary medicine because I wanted to help animals live longer, healthier lives.

If you could give pet owners any advice, what would it be?

Tell us about your family and any pets you have.
My dog Lollipop is 8 years old now (can’t believe it!) and my cat, Gingersnap, is now 12. Both of my pets were adopted from Midwest Animal Hospital.
