Meet the Heart of Lakeshore Animal Hospital
Dr. Ting has always had a strong love for animals, which inspired her to pursue a career in veterinary medicine. After graduating from the American High School of The Hague in the Netherlands, she moved overseas to attend Michigan State University’s College of Veterinary Medicine.
After graduation, Dr. Ting accepted a position with a husband-and-wife veterinary team at a small practice in Mentor-on-the-Lake, Ohio, and she has been part of Lake Shore Animal Hospital ever since. Over the years, she has built lasting relationships with many clients and their pets, and she considers Lake Shore Animal Hospital a second family.
Outside of work, Dr. Ting enjoys spending time with her own pets, attending dog classes with her Flat-Coated Retrievers, playing volleyball with her son and daughter, training her dogs in agility, and showing them at dog shows. She also enjoys crafts, puzzles, and reading. Her love and focus have always been centered on animals and providing them with the best care possible.
