Veterinarian Overview
Dr. Cox grew up in Atlanta, GA. As a child, she was always interested in animals. She was always coming home with frogs, beetles, kittens and puppies. She even asked Santa for a Capybara for Christmas! By early childhood she had decided that she would be an animal doctor. Dr. Cox is a graduate of The University of Georgia. She attended UGA as undergraduate, majoring in Biology and Entomology and graduating Phi Beta Kappa. She stayed on at UGA to complete her Veterinary degree, graduating Cum Laude in 2004. After graduation, she spent two years in emergency medicine at a large, 24 hour hospital in Baltimore, MD. Never the night owl, the overnight shifts became tiresome, and a change of direction landed her here in Los Angeles, practicing at The Pet Doctors, where she has been since 2006. Dr. Cox lives with her husband, her two cats (Toonces and Blanket), and two rats (Marsha and Jan). She also has two cats that live at the office, Timmy and Rupert. In her free time, she likes to paint, travel, hike and work in the garden.
