Karen Vergara
Staff Veterinarian DVM

Dr. Karen Vergara is a passionate veterinarian who graduated from St. George's University and completed her clinical year at Michigan State University. Her love for animals and her desire to make a difference in their lives led her to pursue a career in veterinary medicine.

Despite attaining extensive experience throughout her education at various zoos, including a prestigious opportunity with the USDA APHIS Animal Care and the Smithsonian National Zoo in Washington D.C., Dr. Vergara appreciated working with a more intimate approach alongside pets and their owners.

Her interest in Eastern Medicine sparked while working as a veterinary technician and a physical rehabilitator at a small animal practice. Currently, Dr. Vergara is in the process of achieving a certification in Acupuncture at the Chi Institute.

Other interests include internal medicine, preventive medicine and dentistry. Driven by a genuine love for animals and an unwavering dedication to their well-being, Dr. Vergara is committed to positively impacting the lives and happiness of her patients and owners.

When not at work, Dr. Vergara enjoys exploring her creative side, traveling, playing video games, and baking delicious desserts. She especially enjoys the company of her two mastiffs, a beaglier, a school of freshwater fish, and a rabbit to complete her day.
