Are you a medical practitioner and know this Doctor/Consultant? If so, please add a review.
The not so stereotypical childhood dream of becoming an animal doctor along some luck, got me into a vet school that started my professional journey. The goal in mind was to simply diagnose and treat sick animals, however observing the immense diversity in lifeforms and how they unite under the basic concepts of health became the passion .
In order to comprehend how that diversity ends up in such unity, I felt the need to experience and observe more. Therefore, I willingly exposed myself to every opportunity and challenge that I thought could help me getting closer to my goals. Although, it turned out to be tougher than what I anticipated but I learned through it that living out of my comfort zone was where it became most rewarding. I still keep doing it to myself every once in a while and hasn’t got tired of it yet! So I am taking it one challenge at a time.
My veterinary career started in 2005 right after graduating from vet school. I have gained experience in both industrial livestock medicine as well as companion animal medicine and surgery. I also have worked in research labs and academic settings for a while.
In order to pursue my professional goals, I moved to United States in 2015 with my lovely wife with plans to continue working only as a specific small animal practitioner. As part of my professional journey towards growth, I worked as an associate veterinarian in a corporate practice in Orange County, California for 3 years. The job helped me to establish my basic skills in general practice and enjoy practicing quality preventive medicine. After meeting my goals in GP, I decided to once again put myself out there for a new challenge. I did a year of rotating clinical internship and worked as an associate veterinarian at the magnificent Veterinary Specialty Hospital of San Diego California located in San Marcos. I grew a passion for emergency medicine and I am planning to focus on ECC for the next years to come.
My main professional interests are emergency medicine and critical care, internal medicine as well as cardiology, ophthalmology and soft tissue surgery.
When I am not working, I am most likely enjoying the company my family and watching my kids grow! The not so st
