Veterinarian Overview
Dr. Gloria Binkowski has been on the staff at Vet at the Barn since 2000. Glorias special interests include acupuncture, nutrition, and cats. Gloria came to the Vet at the Barn with several years experience in a feline only practice and she also was chief veterinarian in a large urban pound/hospital in NJ. In veterinary school, at the University of Pennsylvania, by taking legal action against the school, Gloria was instrumental in effecting precedent-setting changes in the schools curriculum so that students would no longer be forced to harm or killanimals in the course of their veterinary training. Because of the example set at the University of Pennsylvania, other veterinary schools in the United States were compelled to honor student requests for nonviolent alternatives. Gloria shares her time and home in NJ with some of the many once homeless animals who have crossed her path over the years.
