We aim to enhance options for families and help pets enjoy longer, healthier lives."

Ethos Veterinary Health thrives on the trust placed by pet families in its hospitals for advanced clinical care and compassionate service. Under Storms’ leadership, the organization aims to further enhance specialty and emergency veterinary care while continuing to support its talented teams and influence the future of animal health.
