A night owl at heart, Dr. Liz loves pasta, sports, and spending time with her family. She and her husband are proud parents to two wonderful daughters and 3 playful cats. Fun fact: Dr. Liz holds a black belt in taekwondo, showcasing her discipline and determination.
Outside the clinic, Dr. Liz is an avid traveler who dreams of exploring the streets of Europe again. She’s also a book lover who’s tackled over 4,000 pages of the Game of Thrones series. When she’s not reading or dreaming about her next trip, you might find her baking delicious treats to share with the team.
Weekends for Dr. Liz are all about family adventures, hiking, and discovering the beauty of her new surroundings. She’s also a fan of Schitt’s Creek and enjoys cheering on the Chicago Blackhawks and Cleveland sports teams—though we promise not to hold her team choices against her!
Dr. Liz is also a certified small animal acupuncturist, and we’re excited to offer this specialized treatment to our patients at OVH. Her wealth of knowledge, dedication to patient care, and love for animals make her an incredible addition to our team.
Questions
-
What's your favorite animal and why?
Cats are my favorite animals. I’ve always had them, and I admire their intelligence, playful nature, and undeniable charm. They’re fun, independent, and absolutely adorable.
-
Can you share a memorable story about a pet you've treated?
One of the most remarkable cases I’ve encountered involved a paralyzed dachshund. The dog had no feeling or movement in his hind legs and couldn’t urinate or defecate on his own. While surgery was the best option, the cost was prohibitive for the owner during the recession.
I suggested trying acupuncture, and the owner agreed. Miraculously, within a week, the dog regained control of his bladder and bowels, and within a month, he was walking again. He went on to live another 5-6 happy years. This experience was one of the most rewarding moments of my career.
-
If you could communicate with animals, what's the first thing you'd ask them?
I’d ask them where they’re hurting.
-
What's the most unusual pet you've ever cared for?
While in veterinary school, I had the incredible opportunity to help treat tigers and a lion.
-
What's your pet's name and why did you choose it?
Princess Consuela Bananahammock: Named after the Friends TV show reference because we thought it was hilarious. Her nickname is Phoebe.
Spicy Jalapeño: She was a bit “spicy” when we first met her, so the name stuck. Her nickname is Holly.
Lieutenant Dan: We adopted him from the SPCA after he had a leg amputated and decided to keep the name given to him by the shelter.
-
What inspired you to work in this industry?
From a young age, I was drawn to the medical field, initially wanting to be a nurse or doctor. However, after accompanying my cat to a vaccine appointment, I knew veterinary medicine was my calling. Beyond my love for animals, I was inspired by the challenge of diagnosing and treating patients who couldn’t explain what was wrong.
-
What advice would you give to pet owners to ensure their pets lead healthy lives?
Make annual wellness visits a priority and keep your pets on recommended parasite preventives. Pet insurance is another important consideration—it can make it easier to manage the financial challenges of emergency or chronic illness care as veterinary costs continue to rise.
