Dr. Sabrina K.

While at vet school, Dr. Kuo held positions as a veterinary school radiology technician and was an on-campus pharmaceuticals representative for Fort Dodge and Boehringer-Ingelheim. She also pursued a conservation externship in South Africa and externed at various small animal private practices and specialty clinics throughout the Midwest. Dr. Kuo was also an active member of the veterinary professional fraternity, Omega Tau Sigma. 

Dr. Kuo began her career as a veterinarian at a large, full-service walk-in hospital in downtown Chicago. After two years as an associate veterinarian, Dr. Kuo became the medical director, where she built out a veterinarian training program with a focus on new-graduate mentorship. Her leadership role gave her an understanding of the pitfalls and successes of operating a modern animal hospital in an urban setting. 

Dr. Kuo co-founded a veterinary management company called GoodVets, where she acted as the Chief Medical Officer. The company challenged the practice “norm” and introduced a tech-centered business with a people-centric approach to the leadership team. There she established the core process and procedures of a successful franchise model that built the basis for repeatable action that the company is still successfully thriving on.

As a mentor, Dr. Kuo's greatest strength lies in her ability to draw from her diverse experiences and provide a well-rounded perspective on the veterinary profession. Throughout her career, she has worked in every position across a veterinary hospital and has always had a strong passion for teaching and mentorship. Helping others thrive in their own career is especially purposeful and rewarding to her. Dr. Kuo is excited to work alongside students to help them create a strong, personalized application that will get them one step closer to a fulfilling career in veterinary medicine.
