School: Ross University School of Veterinary Medicine

Dr. Arthur Scherr is a Miami native who graduated from the Ross University School of Veterinary Medicine in 1990. His family is best know as the founders of Parrot Jungle, now Jungle Island. Except for his time spent attaining his veterinary degree, the rest of his life has been spent within a 10 mile radius of his veterinary practice. Thus, he can certainly be called "home grown," and he knows the population of south Florida as well as anyone. What sets Dr. Scherr apart is his intense interest in advanced levels of veterinary medicine and surgery. His ability to handle even the most challenging of cases is nothing short of exceptional. The father of six children, Dr. Scherr is especially sensitive to the relationship between families and their pets.
