Dr Brandenburg is a 2016 graduate of Virginia-Maryland College of Veterinary Medicine. In her first few years after graduating, she learned that she has a passion for preventive medicine for small animals. She also has a special interest in small animal oral surgery. In her spare time, she enjoys spending time with her husband, Reza, and her one-year-old son, Hugo. She has three dogs: a Great Pyrenees named Chloe, a Siberian Husky named Bear, and Dropbox (her foster feline, which she jokingly named Dropbox prior to adopting him officially, but the name stuck).
