Patricia Ortiz
Credentialed Veterinary Technician Supervisor

I grew up in the Palm Bay area and am a true Floridian. I have always loved animals and wanted a career working with them. This started the journey in becoming a certified veterinary technician. I love having a career that utilizies my skills, lets me share my knowledge with clients, while working in an environment with other people that love animals too. We are all helping them to live longer healthier lives. I thrive on advancing my knowledge and skills and want to be involved with veterinary medicine for years to come. There is nothing quite like assisting with the birth of either puppies or kittens, unless it is helping to save a life in an emergency situation. I love to know at the end of each day that I personally made a difference.

When not at work I love spending time with family and my own pets. I enjoy riding, reading, being outdoors, riding bikes, and researching additional continuing education that will enable mee to better assist with your pets.
