On Dec. 1, 2003 my 11 yr old Lhasa Apso, Cali, was hospitalized. Dr. Ford didn't think she would make it 24 hrs because she had advanced Diabetes and Pancreatitis, which had never been diagnosed. Dr. Ford specializes in both those illnesses, which was good fortune for Cali and I. Because of Dr. Ford's skill my Cali lived for more than 3.5 years. We had all that extra time to spend together. For eternity I will always be so grateful to Dr. Ford and her knowledge because that was 3 yrs Cali and I would not have had otherwise. Dr. Ford was a true blessing in our lives. She is compassionate, caring, meticulous and an amazingly skilled doctor. Thank you so much Dr. Ford for the extra time I had with Cali.
