Dr. Kristin Renkei grew up in San Diego, California. She volunteered at the SPCA at a young age knowing she wanted to work with animals. Dr. Renkei made her way to UC Davis for her undergraduate degree in Animal Sciences and completed her veterinary degree at The University of Glasgow in Scotland. She loved being abroad and still has a passion for travel. 

Coming back to The States, Dr. Renkei completed a small animal internship at Animal Specialty Group in Los Angeles before entering general practice. She eventually became medical director at Mohawk Small Animal Hospital where she enjoyed caring for her patients over the years and catching up with their pet parents. 

Dr. Renkei moved up to Northern California in 2023 with her husband and fur babies (2 dogs and 1 cat). She loves being up here, exploring hiking trails, new restaurants and meeting some wonderful people. Dr. Renkei is happy to see you and your furry baby soon!
