Together, we develop veterinary medicine that focuses on people.

Sandy is a passionate veterinarian – even as a child, she knew that she wanted to pursue this career. After working in a clinic, she now feels most at home in the emergency room, with a particular focus on sonography diagnostics – and she would like to further deepen her knowledge of surgery.
