Veterinary School: Royal Veterinary College (London, UK)Internship Training: University of Illinois

Dr. Valerie Korff grew up in California and knew from a young age that she wanted to become a veterinarian. She earned her veterinary degree at the Royal Veterinary College in London, then completed a rotating internship at the University of Illinois. Since graduating, she has dedicated her career to emergency medicine, with particular interest in treating blocked cats, foxtails, fish hooks, and porcupine quills.

Dr. Korff began her veterinary career along the beaches of Texas before returning home to California to continue her work in the field she loves. She is passionate about providing urgent and compassionate care for pets and supporting their families during stressful moments.

Outside of work, Dr. Korff enjoys hiking, running, cruising on her longboard, and experimenting in the kitchen, though she admits baking isn’t her strongest talent.
