General practitioner, Anesthesia & Analgesia.

7 years

Yes, I’ve pursued additional training and Seminars in Anesthesia & Analgesia, Internal medicine, Emergency & Critical Care to deepen my clinical knowledge and improve diagnostic accuracy in these areas.

I have expertise in treating a wide range of species across both small animal and wildlife medicine.
In the wildlife field, I have examined and performed anesthesia on various species, particularly primates such as gibbons, slow lorises, orangutans, long-tailed macaques, and pig-tailed macaques, as well as other species including sun bears and deer.
In the small animal field, I have extensive hands-on experience in anesthesia and medical care for dogs, cats, rabbits, sugar gliders, bats, snakes, and lizards

My approach to patient care is centered on evidence-based medicine, precision, and individualized treatment. I prioritize accurate diagnostics, structured decision-making, and careful monitoring to ensure both safety and effectiveness in every case. In critical or surgical situations, I focus on stability, pain management, and patient comfort throughout the process.
When it comes to client communication, I value clarity, empathy, and transparency. I aim to explain medical findings and treatment options in a way that is easy to understand, while also being honest about prognosis and costs.

I ensure a positive and comfortable experience by combining low-stress, compassionate handling and individualized care for each pet with clear, empathetic communication that keeps owners informed, supported, and actively involved in every step of the treatment process.

Yes, I have a strong interest in anesthesia and analgesia, as well as emergency and critical care. I am particularly passionate about optimizing anesthetic protocols, ensuring effective pain management, and providing safe perioperative care. In addition, I enjoy the challenges of stabilizing critical patients, making rapid evidence-based decisions, and delivering intensive monitoring to improve patient survival and recovery outcomes.

I find the most rewarding cases are those that challenge both my clinical skills and decision-making under pressure. For example, I have managed emergency patients presenting with dyspnea, cyanosis, and severe cardiovascular compromise, where rapid intervention successfully stabilized their condition. I also encountered a patient who went into respiratory distress on the surgical table, and with immediate endotracheal intubation and controlled ventilation, I was able to restore stable breathing and ensure the surgery proceeded safely. In another case, I performed a complex surgical procedure lasting over six hours, which required sustained focus, precision, and careful anesthetic monitoring throughout. These experiences are especially meaningful to me because they highlight the importance of preparation, rapid response, and resilience in achieving positive outcomes for critical patients.

I educate and involve pet owners by explaining medical findings and treatment options in clear, simple terms, while also emphasizing preventive care and home management. I encourage owners to ask questions, provide written instructions or follow-up plans when needed, and keep them updated throughout hospitalization or recovery. By combining transparency, empathy, and continuous guidance, I ensure that owners feel confident, supported, and actively involved in their pet’s well-being.

I commonly advise pet owners to focus on preventive care, which includes routine vaccinations, regular deworming and parasite control, balanced nutrition, and maintaining an ideal body weight. I also emphasize the importance of regular check-ups and early diagnostics to detect disease before it becomes severe. Additionally, I encourage owners to monitor behavioral or physical changes at home, as early recognition and timely veterinary care are key to maintaining long-term health and well-being.
