Veterinarian Overview
Dr. Hong was born in Honolulu, Hawaii and moved to Western New York as a youngster. Growing up in Amherst, she was known for her love of animals. After college and many odd jobs later (including a stint as a research assistant at a human cancer hospital), she finally enrolled in veterinary school at Michigan State University. She went on to complete an internship at The Animal Medical Center in New York City, and joined OPVMC in 2016. Dr. Hong is especially interested in Emergency, Critical Care, and Internal Medicine and would like to specialize at some point in the future. In the meantime, she is very happy to be working as an emergency veterinarian. In her spare time Dr. Hong enjoys spending time with her family and her beloved cat, Calvin. She loves traveling and visiting her family in Honolulu, Hawaii. Her hobbies include outdoor running, yoga, and any activity that involves a beach.
