Our Mission

Our mission has always been to provide the highest quality veterinary dental care in a compassionate manner, while working with pet owners and their veterinarians to improve the health and happiness of pets and their families.  The doctors and staff proudly believe in educating pet owners and veterinarians about oral diseases and problems that affect pets.  Client satisfaction and disease resolution are top priorities at our practices.  We are dedicated to providing optimal oral health care for pets, especially dogs and cats, and assisting your veterinarian to offer options for oral and dental problems.  

Your family veterinarian is likely well versed in dental diseases and can provide the maintenance care your pets need, but in the event they diagnose a disorder that would benefit from advanced dental procedures, they may offer the option of referral to our practice. We prefer to work closely with them, discuss their findings on the phone, and receive copies of your pet’s records communicating any existing medical conditions and current medications along with any recent diagnostic tests or x-rays. All this information will help us provide a seamless transition into our practice and allow us to tailor treatment specifically for your pet. Once our part of the examination or procedure is complete, we will communicate back to your family veterinarian with copies of any and all pertinent information to allow them to continue maintenance care from that point on.

As she became more solely focused on dentistry, she realized that she wanted to specialize and accepted a residency position with The Pet Dentistry of Tampa Bay in pursuit of board certification.

    During time away from her career, she enjoys spending time with her family and kids, traveling, cooking and exploring new places with her adopted Caribbean Street dog named Spice.
