Dr. Endya High was born and raised in Bowie, Maryland. She received her Bachelor of Science degree in Animal Science from Tuskegee University in 2011 and stayed in Alabama for an additional 4 years to complete her DVM in 2015. Dr. High went back to the DC-Maryland-Virginia area in 2016 to complete a rotating internship in small animal medicine and surgery at VCA SouthPaws in Fairfax, Virginia. She then completed a dermatology internship in 2017 at Cummings school of veterinary medicine at Tufts University in Grafton, Massachusetts. In summer 2017, she relocated back to the south to complete a dermatology residency at North Carolina State University in Raleigh, North Carolina. She hopefully made her final big move across the U.S.A to join the VCA AVCC team in August 2020.

Dr. High’s special interests in dermatology include atopic dermatitis, otitis, multi-drug resistant Staphylococcal infections, and auto-immune skin conditions. She has 2 dogs (a bulldog/boxer mix named Bowzer and a Frenchie named Tyson) and 2 cats (a orange tabby named Cokely and a new polydactyl cat named Thumbelina). Her hobbies during residency included cooking and playing video games, but she hopes to explore roller skating, long walks on the beach, and other traditional California activities!
