Dr. Dana Bridges, a much-loved equine veterinarian from Monroe Washington, who is also a Field Service Veterinarian for World Vets, was recently diagnosed with cancer and is undergoing treatment. She is a dedicated veterinarian who volunteers countless hours to help animals around the world. As a self-employed solo practitioner, she will be unable to work for 2-6 months. A fund has been set up to help cover medical expenses not paid by insurance. Every little bit helps. Please consider donating to the “Dr Dana’s We Hate Cancer Fund”.
