About the Author
Wendy has been a veterinary nurse for more than 30 years and has worked at the University of Florida Small Animal Hospital for 25 years. Although she has worked in anesthesia, shelter medicine, and orthopedic surgery, she found her niche in physical rehabilitation. As part of the team that brought physical rehabilitation to the University of Florida, she is proud that it now includes 3 full-time boarded sports medicine and rehabilitation faculty, 2 residents, a specialty intern, and 4 veterinary nurses. She is a charter member and former president of the Academy of Physical Rehabilitation Veterinary Technicians (APRVT) and is helping to advance knowledge of physical rehabilitation in veterinary medicine as an integral part of helping pets live longer, pain-free lives with their families.
