Veterinarian Overview
Dr. Rebeccah Landman has worn a few hats in her life. Trained first as an archaeologist, she spent six years traveling the world uncovering the mysteries of the ancient world. Trading trowel for stethoscope, she returned to her childhood passion of veterinary medicine. As a veterinarian, she is not only able explore the mysteries of animal medicine but also keep important members of our family happy and healthy. Dr. Landman received her Doctorate of Veterinary Medicine from the UC Davis School of Veterinary in May 2016 and worked in Sonora after graduation. While she enjoyed mountain living, Dr. Landman missed the Bay Area. In June 2017, she moved back to Berkeley and joined the team at VCA Albany Animal Hospital. Her professional interest includes wellness/preventative medicine, small animal medicine, and dermatology. With a livestock and poultry background, she is also happy to answer any questions you may have about your goats, pigs or chickens. While at UC Davis, Dr. Landman dedicated time to researching the connection between human and animal health. She worked on projects studying rodent-borne zoonotic diseases and started a One Health program in Nicaragua, supporting community-lead initiatives to promote poultry and bovine health. A long time goal for her is to continue participating in community outreach projects, both locally and globally, supporting the inextricable link between animal well fare, human health, and ecological conservation.
