Everyone Has A Story, Here Is Mine.
Dr. Rebecca Westbrook grew up in middle Tennessee on a small farm. Her parents allowed her to experience the joy of taking care of a variety of animals. While horses are her first “large animal” love, she also raised sheep and bottle feed calves. Her personal pets included dogs, cats, hamsters, snakes and “Polly” the parakeet.
University Of Tennesse School Of Veterinary Medicine
After graduating from the University of Tennesse School of Veterinary Medicine in 2000, Dr. Westbrook moved back to her home town and worked in a mixed animal practice. Due to the economy’s struggles after 9-11, Dr. Westbrook had to move to find a more stable economic area. She decided that living by the beach would be an interesting change and she practiced several years in Pensacola, Florida before finding her way home to the great state of Texas.
