As a Veterinary Technician in San Diego
As a veterinary technician in San Diego, Dr. Luciana continued to develop her skills and adapt to her new role. She observed the need for better care for pets with special needs or chronic illnesses, who often faced negative experiences with grooming and boarding. She also witnessed the sad reality of pets being euthanized because their owners could not afford treatment, which deeply affected her.
Through her experiences, Dr. Luciana met numerous professionals who shared her passion and dedication for animal care. She learned from their approach, witnessing the good and bad aspects of the practice. With these insights, she formed her dream team for her own business, ensuring that the same love and care she always provided would be maintained throughout her practice.
