Ark Pain Center

“Physical therapy has restored my own body to doing the things I love to do many times after sports injuries and age related pains. Having benefited so much from physical therapy, I wanted to give dogs and cats the best life possible. With this personal desire to help my patients I pursued an advanced education to become certified by the University of Tennessee in canine rehabilitation (CCRP). I am proud to be the only veterinarian in Kansas City with this certification. I also became certified as a veterinary pain practitioner (CVPP) so that we can handle all forms of pain. At the Ark Pain Center I am the team leader of a wonderful group of experienced, trained and caring individuals who all have a desire to get your pet back to doing the things they love to do.”

“Pain management has always been a priority to me, and I wanted to be able to offer a drug-free and safe holistic option for my patients. I earned my Certified Veterinary Acupuncturist degree and am one of the few people in the metro able to help guide your pet through other alternative modalities for pain control”

“I love the one-on-one, hands-on caring for pets. My training as a Certified Canine Rehabilitation Practitioner (CCRP) and Registered Veterinary Technician (RVT) gives me the training I need to help pets achieve a higher quality of life. Rehabilitation of pets requires a lot of creativity and is so rewarding to see them do something they haven’t been able to do. A dog smiles when it completes a challenging exercise.”
