Long Island Veterinary Specialists
My name is Valeria Colberg, and I am a veterinarian doing a small animal surgical internship at Long Island Veterinary Specialists. I attended Michigan State University where I graduated with a bachelors degree in Zoology with a concentration in animal behavior and neurobiology. I then studied at The Ohio State University College of Veterinary Medicine where my interest in surgery grew, in particular small animal soft tissue surgery. To further my education and pursue a career in small animal surgery I completed a small animal rotating internship at Tufts University Cummings School of Veterinary Medicine. There I had the pleasure to work alongside great surgeons, including Dr. Kudej, DVM, ACVS who helped me get involved in research evaluating the effect of midline glossoplasty on BOAS Airway.
