Dr. Jordana knew from a young age that veterinary medicine was her calling. She began volunteering at a local animal shelter when she was just 10 years old. After graduating from Ross University School of Veterinary Medicine in 2005, she became a partner at a small animal hospital, where she discovered that her greatest joy was building environments where people and patients could thrive. When she sold her practice in 2016, she was struck by a profession that had lost some of its enthusiasm and respect, and decided it was up to her to be the change. Today, as Founder and CEO of EVS Pet Urgent Care, Dr. Jordana is on a mission to bridge the gap between general practice and emergency care, easing the burden on local veterinarians while making sure pets in need always have somewhere to turn. She lives in the northern suburbs of Chicago with her husband, three children, Maggie the dog, and Junior the cat.
