Our field sonographer, Rebekah Jakum, CVT, ARDMS/RVT, began doing small animal ultrasounds in 2002 in private practice. She has been a Registered/Certified Veterinary Technician since graduating from Fairmont State University in Fairmont, West Virginia in 1996 with an Associate's Degree in Applied Science.

After graduating with honors, she worked in community hospitals and vein specialty centers, while always keeping part-time work in veterinary medicine. This has given her exposure and knowledge in a variety of sonographic modalities, including, vascular, abdominal, OB/Gyn, and breast.

She is able to draw upon her professional experience and education to provide excellent ultrasound services to clients and patients.
