Southern California native, Dr Elizabeth Schuh, grew up in the San Luis Obispo area before moving north to attend the University of California, Davis for both her undergraduate (2006) and veterinary degrees (2012). After completing a rotating internship in small animal medicine and surgery at the University of Illinois, she returned to her beloved home state as an Oncology Intern with the Veterinary Specialty Hospital of San Diego.
Since this time, Dr Elizabeth has worked in both emergency medicine and oncology. As well, she has contributed as a member of the renowned veterinary clinical trials team at The Ohio State University. She is currently completing a residency with Veterinary Cancer Group, working toward becoming a board certified specialist in medical oncology. Her training and experiences make her uniquely qualified to counsel in end-of-life decision-making. Dr Elizabeth is passionate about encouraging quality of life and peaceful passing of all her patients.
Elizabeth Fredgant, veterinary assistant for Hearts & Halos, grew up in Los Angeles, California. After studying abroad in Seoul, South Korea for two years, Elizabeth went on to graduate with honors from UCLA, where she got her bachelors in Political Science. While she has always been passionate about her love for animals, (having many family pets throughout her life), it wasn't until 2008 that she adopted her best friend: an American bulldog named Crash. On her spare time Elizabeth enjoys dancing, watching sports, and finding new places to explore with Crash. Although she only has room for one 4 legged furry friend at the moment, she has helped find forever homes for many animals in need. Elizabeth feels very honored to be working with such a caring company and couldn't be more proud to be a part of the Hearts & Halos team.
