American College of Veterinary Surgeons As a member of your family, your pet deserves nothing less than the best care available.

I strive to provide the highest quality of advanced surgical care by strictly adhering to accepted standards for the treatment of animals. As a result, I, along with local veterinary hospitals, am able to give pets the absolute best veterinary care. My commitment to having the most advanced technology is unrivaled. My priority, however, lies with giving you and your family all the support you need

– through communication, care, and compassion. I am highly trained and experienced in providing prompt and intensive management of patients with life-threatening conditions and those requiring extraordinary supportive care. My multi-disciplinary approach and close cooperation allow me to offer the best care available to the patients entrusted to me. I am committed to using science, technology, and compassion to provide exceptional care for pets and their families. My caseload encompasses patients with a wide range of orthopedic, neurologic, oncologic (cancer), thoracic, and soft tissue problems. I am available for surgery, consultation, assistance with difficult surgical cases, or when the use of specialized surgical equipment or techniques is required. My combined effort allows me to confer on patient management, to be readily available for trauma or other emergency referrals, and to further expand our own surgical subspecialties. My practice is equipped with the latest specialized instrumentation and equipment. The safest anesthetic agents are used, and patients are continuously monitored throughout anesthesia. Experienced, registered veterinary technicians and well-trained technical support staff plays a key role in perioperative intensive care. Patient care is provided 24 hours a day and 365 days a year. Your pet deserves exceptional care!

Arthroscopy for elbow dysplasia dog PThis young Rottweiler could barely walk because of severe elbow pain caused by a fragmented medial coronoid process (FMCP).

Using minimally invasive elbow arthroscopy, we removed the damaged bone fragment

✔️ Less pain
✔️ Smaller incisions
✔️ Faster recovery
✔️ Excellent visualization of the joint

Early diagnosis and treatment are essential to reduce pain, improve function, and help slow the progression of arthritis.

Every life matters—no matter how small.

This little squirrel came to us unable to urinate because its prepuce was completely closed, preventing urine from passing. Without treatment, this condition can quickly become life-threatening.

We performed delicate reconstructive surgery to create a normal opening and restore urinary flow. I’m happy to share that the procedure was a success, and our tiny patient recovered beautifully.

The best part? This little squirrel is now healthy, pain-free, and ready to return where it belongs—in the wild.

Moments like these remind us why we do what we do. Every patient deserves a chance.

A tiny vessel with a big impact.

Today we corrected a congenital extrahepatic portosystemic shunt in this brave pup — a large left gastric shunt attenuated with an ameroid constrictor.

Portosystemic shunts allow blood to bypass the liver, preventing normal detoxification and metabolism. Left untreated, affected dogs can experience poor growth, gastrointestinal signs, urinary issues, and neurologic episodes.

An ameroid constrictor provides gradual occlusion of the abnormal vessel over several weeks, allowing the liver and portal circulation to adapt safely while minimizing the risk of acute portal hypertension.

Grateful to our dedicated team and to this little fighter for trusting us with their care.

People often ask me when I plan to retire.
The truth is—I already have.

When you spend your life doing what you love and helping animals, it doesn’t feel like work.
This is purpose. And I’m grateful to do it for as long as I’m able.

Every day in veterinary medicine, we carry more than cases.
We carry questions, second-guessing, and the weight of outcomes we wish were different.

There are moments when you’ve done everything possible and still lose a life.
Over time, I’ve learned this truth: loss is not always a mistake. Sometimes, it’s nature reminding us of its limits.
Understanding that lesson doesn’t make the work easier but it makes us better surgeons, better clinicians, and more present when cases are heavy.

For those in the field who carry this quietly, you’re not alone.

Blood work before surgery isn’t optional—it’s essential. 🧪
It helps us evaluate organ function, detect hidden issues, and plan the safest anesthesia possible. Because every patient deserves a tailored, safe surgical plan

Veterinary surgery isn’t about hours—it’s about commitment.
When emergencies come in, we stay. For the patients. For their families. For the animals who need us most. 🤍

As a surgeon, helping animals doesn’t stop in the operating room. Volunteering in shelters—especially high-kill shelters—means giving a voice to animals who desperately need homes. The holidays are the perfect time to give back 🎁🎄🎄
