Reason I became a Veterinarian:

I decided to become a Veterinarian as a young boy after watching Veterinarians working on our farm animals on our ranch in North Dakota.

I came to Minnesota to go to the University of Minnesota College of Veterinary Medicine. While in college I realized I much preferred working with people and their pets. That led me to stay in the Twin Cities upon graduating in 1975.

I have worked as a small animal Veterinarian in the White Bear Lake/Hugo area since getting my degree.

My interests include Orthopedic Surgery and working with breed rescue groups. I reside in Hugo with my wife and our dogs Otis and Java. I have a son, Tyler who is going to St. Cloud State working towards a degree in Psychology and Film Making.

I keep busy in my leisure time working with my Thoroughbred Race Horses and also enjoy playing golf.

I look forward to seeing you and your pets at the newly remodeled Otter Lake Animal Care Center.
