Interview Q&A
How long have you been in business?
46 years
What is your primary product or service?
veterinary medicine and surgery for all pets
How did you first become interested in your line of business? (if owner) - What is your background? (If owner or store manager)
I've always loved animals and medicine. I always knew I wanted to be a veterinarian. All aptitude tests pointed me to the same conclusion. I grew up in Northwest Baltimore, had my pre-vet education at the University of Maryland at College Park and my veterinary education at Michigan State University.
How do you differentiate yourself from other businesses in your category and area?
I have been in practice longer that anyone else in my area. My practice is in my home so is very warm in contrast to a cold, clinical environment. This is a small, quality practice. We take our time with each patient rather than rush through a great quantity of patients.
How many locations do you have and do you have plans to expand?
Only one location with no plans to expand.
