Veterinarian Overview
Dr. Alkofer grew up outside of Charleston, SC. She received her Bachelor of Science in biology from Wofford College in Spartanburg, SC. She graduated from Washington State University College of Veterinary Medicine in 1997. She worked at San Diegos Scripps Research Institute as a research assistant, which led to her desire to pursue a career in veterinary medicine. She practiced in small animal emergency and general medicine practices in Eastern Washington for 6 years & has worked in Orange County since 2003. She joined the Rancho Viejo team in 2014. In addition to general medicine, she especially enjoys surgery & dentistry. Dr. Alkofer works in our hospital on Mondays and Tuesdays and when she is not working, she enjoys spending time in the gorgeous Southern California outdoors with her husband and children. We are happy to have such a kind, caring, and experienced veterinarian as a member of our team.
