Introducing Dr. Myers! Dr. Myers earned her DVM degree from Kansas State University in 2011. She previously attended the University of Kansas, graduating with a BFA Painting in 1996 and a BS in Biology in 2006 and has worked in scientific illustration and the veterinary field since 2003, including working at the Animal Medical Center in NYC and in wildlife rehabilitation. She has had many adventures with practicing in the Midwest, New England, and Ontario over her career and is excited to call British Columbia her home.
Her professional interests include exotic animal medicine and Traditional Chinese Veterinary Medicine/holistic medicine. She has practiced exotic medicine in many settings, including a few zoo externships, and has completed many exotics-focused continuing education courses. She became certified in veterinary acupuncture in 2017 and Tui-Na acupressure massage in 2018. Her goal is to become certified as a TCVM practitioner. She also recently completed a pain management course in integrative medicine from Chi University. She is passionate about ensuring her patients have access to all possible therapies in order to maximize successful health outcomes, as well as educating clients, especially in exotic animal healthcare and integrative therapies.
She is a member of the of the Association of Exotic Mammal Veterinarians and served as the Marketing Committee Chair from 2017-2021, as well as a member of the American Academy of Veterinary Acupuncture, the World Association of Traditional Chinese Veterinary Medicine, the International Veterinary Acupuncture Society, the American Veterinary Medical Association, the Canadian Veterinary Medical Association, the Vermont Veterinary Medical Association, and the Society for BC Veterinarians.
In her free time, Dr. Myers enjoys hiking, snowshoeing, and cross-country skiing with her husband, Carl (also a veterinarian). She loves baking, especially experimenting with sourdoughs, gardening and canning what they grow, and tries to squeeze in some knitting when she can. She and her husband just said goodbye to their pet fancy rat, Ruby, but are hoping to add some new furry friends to their family soon.
