Veterinarian Overview
My interest in and exposure to veterinary medicine occurred early in life as my father was a large animal veterinarian. I graduated from the College of Veterinary Medicine at Cornell University, in 1982 and began working at Nassau Veterinary Clinic. In 1985, I accepted a partnership position. My current professional interests include dentistry and internal medicine. Currently, I am pursuing certification in advanced veterinary dentistry. The field of advanced veterinary dentistry includes root canal therapy or crowns to save important teeth, periodontic surgery to prevent infection and tooth loss and orthodontics to eliminate abnormally positioned teeth from causing self trauma.
