Upon graduation, he began practicing at Carrier Animal Hospital and has never left. He has served on the Winn Foundation for Feline Research and in 2003 was recognized by the Cat Fanciers' Association for service provided to his feline patients. In the late 1990's, he developed an increased interest in Polycystic Kidney Disease among Persian cats. Since then he has ultrasounded over 1500 cats.

Surviving Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma has made him appreciate more than ever the career he chose and the friends he has made while practicing veterinary medicine.
