She completed her certification in canine rehabilitation in 2022 after  working in general practice for a decade.

After her dog, Rambler, had surgery on both of his knees, she was able to see first hand how much rehab helped him regain his mobility, allowing him to continue to do what he loved-running and hiking with his people. This led her to pursue her passion for physical rehabilitation and pain management.

She provides comprehensive physical rehabilitation exams and treatments. Dr Cassie shared: “I love physical rehabilitation because it allows us to help pets maintain or regain their mobility, which is such a vital part of the human animal bond. I love that we can help our best friends continue to do what they love and to be an active part of the family.”
