The ACVIM Foundation Honors Dr. Mona Rosenberg of Veterinary Cancer Group in Culver City and Tustin, CA.

As the owner, CEO and Chief of Staff at the Veterinary Cancer Group, Dr. Rosenberg has been committed to helping pets fight cancer, while restoring hope in the hearts of their owners. Her two practices are the largest, most comprehensive and sophisticated oncology practices in the world, serving four counties in Southern California.

Dr. Rosenberg’s enhancements to the field of veterinary oncology have proved that even the toughest battles can be won with the help of specialty medicine and steadfast dedication. She has granted precious time and health to our beloved companions, and precious advancements in veterinary oncology to the world.
