Meet Dr. Kathleen Hering
DVMOriginally from Montreal, Canada, Dr. Hering brings over two decades of veterinary expertise to the team at Acacia Animal Hospital. Her journey into medicine began at McGill University, where she earned her Bachelor of Science in Resource Conservation. It was her time spent volunteering at the Toronto Wildlife Centre that solidified her passion for animal care and inspired her to pursue a career in veterinary medicine. Dr. Hering graduated from Ontario Veterinary College at the University of Guelph in 2003. Throughout her career she has developed a special interest in ophthalmology and dentistry. She is also deeply committed to providing a minimally stressful experience for her patients. Dr. Hering speaks English and French.
Dr. Hering recently relocated to Fort Lauderdale with her husband to escape the long cold Canadian winters. She is the proud mother of two young adult daughters. When she isn't working, you'll find Dr. Hering on or under the water - whether she's snorkeling, scuba diving, sailing, or paddle boarding. She intends to make the most of life in South Florida and hopes to take up tennis, golf and kite surfing.
