Why did you become a veterinarian?

"To effect change in the way society views animals. Essentially, to care for companion animals as we would want our pediatricians to care for our children."

Do you have pets at home? If so, what kinds?

"Yes I do. I have 3 dogs - Rookie, Chet and Dukie."

In your opinion, what's the most important part of pet ownership?

"I prefer the term "guardianship" actually. The most important thing, really, is unconditional love and respect between two species."
