OUR STAFF

  

CHRISTINA HANEY, D.V.M.

CLINICAL DIRECTOR

Welcome to Ortega Animal Care Center.  I am Dr. Christina Haney and I graduated from the University of Minnesota in 2006 and have had the pleasure of working in a fast paced, quality care environment for the past four years. My interest in veterinary medicine stems from an unending love for animals and people.  Medicine, surgery, pain management and dermatology have been my areas of interest since graduation and I have honed those skills through challenging cases and talented mentors.

My other passion includes competitive equestrian events, which have been a part of my life for over twenty years. Lastly, but certainly not least, I have two incredible dogs, Eddie and Mr. Skeeter, that continue to make me laugh on a regular basis.  I look forward to seeing you and your furkids soon!
