Veterinarian Overview
Dr. Achenbach has been at The Pet Doctors of Sherman Oaks since March of 2016. Dr. Achenbach was born in Princeton, New Jersey and raised outside of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. She grew up with many dogs and cats and rode horses competitively since the age of 3. At the age of 8, she began accompanying a large animal veterinarian on his calls. It was at this time that she knew she had found her calling! Dr. Achenbach attended veterinary school at the University of Pennsylvania graduating in 2003. She completed an internship in Charlottesville, Virginia. She has since worked in many practices across the country and around the world (even in Hong Kong!). She now calls Southern California her home. Dr. Achenbach is married with two young boys and has two energetic dogs named Lester (a Jack Russel Terrier) and Shea (an Australian Shepherd). She spends her free time either chasing the boys around or running with her Aussie. She looks forward to working as a team with you and your pets
