Dr. Dorothy Kielkopf grew up around the country; her parents were in the army. She attended Penn State University and received her undergraduate degree in Political Science and Geography. She worked with the government for a brief time and then decided to return to school to receive her Veterinary degree from the University of Pennsylvania, graduating in 1998. She has been practicing ever since in the Puget Sound region.

“Being a Veterinarian, I feel I can make a tangible difference in the lives of people and their pets. I left my government job because I saw no end to my work, but working with pets, I find common ground with their owners because we both care for the same thing.”
