Jayme Williams (Woof and Purr Vet)

Veterinarian Overview

Dr. Jayme Williams knew she wanted to be a veterinarian since she was 7 years old, when she participated in a stray cat/kitten rescue underneath her family home. She helped her father make the cat family a new home, provided them warm blankets and fed them daily. Unfortunately, the kittens did not survive the trauma of moving and it was that moment that Dr. Williams wanted to understand why. Throughout college she pursued numerous undergraduate assistant teaching positions and pursued investigational grant opportunities, including the Southern California scholars programs such as the UCLA Bridge Program where she studied HIV co-infection mutation and patterns of infection with the world’s premier AIDS research center and at UC San Diego with the Ronald E. McNair Scholars Program where she researched reproductive hormonal signaling and egg maturation in the ovary (working on polycystic ovarian syndrome) with top notch medical school professors. After graduation she spent a year researching vascular growth and signaling at the Jacobs School of Bioengineering with a team focused on aerospace medicine for NASA and autologous graft production.
