Cona Anwer, DVM, DACVIM
Dr. Anwer is a board certified veterinary neurologist/neurosurgeon, who is now seeing new patients!
A Massachusetts native, Dr. Cona Anwer completed her DVM with thesis at Tufts University where she earned the Award for Excellence in Feline Medicine. Dr. Anwer went on to complete a one-year medical and surgical rotating internship at the University of Pennsylvania, a one-year neurology/neurosurgery internship at the Veterinary Specialty Hospital of San Diego, and a three-year neurology/neurosurgery residency at the University of California, Davis. In 2013 she became board-certified by the American College of Veterinary Internal Medicine Specialty of Neurology and obtained her Certificate of Neurosurgery Training. After living and working in California for over 10 years she is very excited to return to her home state!
Dr. Anwer treats both dogs and cats but she has a strong passion for feline medicine. She feels cats are often underdiagnosed and misdiagnosed because they try their best to hide their problems whenever they visit their veterinarian. By spending extra time observing them and with the help of videos from home she can gain a better understanding of where their problem may lie and the best way to get a diagnosis.
She also has a love of neurosurgery and enjoys collaborating with colleagues to explore new surgical techniques. By always keeping up with new ideas she can offer her patients more options and better outcomes.
What Dr. Anwer enjoys the most is working with pets and their families to find the best diagnostic and treatment options for their unique clinical picture. She wants to make sure that her clients always understand what is happening with their pet and why we are making our recommendations.
When she is not at the hospital Dr. Anwer enjoys spending time with her family and her newly adopted cat Dougie!
