Reshma Bijlani
DVM
I grew up in the San Fernando Valley and completed my undergraduate studies at the University of California, San Diego where I obtained degrees in Animal Physiology/Neuroscience and Political Science.I then moved to London, England for veterinary school at the Royal Veterinary College (one the best and oldest veterinary school in the world).After receiving my veterinary degree, I completed a rotating medicine and surgery internship at Blue Pearl Veterinary Specialists in New York City. Upon completing my internship, I returned to Los Angeles to practice veterinary medicine to be closer to my family and to enjoy the weather :) I enjoy building relationships with clients and their furry family members, working up complicated cases and performing surgery. I also enjoying working with rescue organisations like Much Love Rescue (who gave me my dog Finn).In my free time I love reading, playing with my rescue dog Finn, playing sports, traveling around the world and exploring different cuisines and helping animals.
