Her dedication to veterinary care, focus on client education, and natural leadership make her an ideal choice to lead our first clinic in Arizona,” David Boguslawski, CityVet president and CEO, said in the release.4

"What I hear most from my clients is appreciation for the time I take to thoroughly explain their pet's health. For me, it's important that every pet owner leaves with a clear understanding of what's going on with their pet and how we can work together to keep them healthy,” said Jordan, in the release.4 "I want every visit to be a positive experience where they feel more informed and empowered to advocate for their pets. I also expect that same culture of thoroughness and clear communication to carry through every aspect of our clinic."
