Dr. Tim White comes from Tacoma, Washington. He graduated from the College of Veterinary
Medicine at Washington State University in 1999. He practiced as an associate veterinarian
for 1 year in Las Vegas, Nevada and has spent the last 9 years here in the Valley.
This past year, Dr. White decided to begin his own privately owned practice focused
on patient care and client service.
Dr. White has always had a strong passion for animals. As a child he cared for his
grandmother's diabetic dog and continues to help pets every day through veterinary
medicine.
Dr. White is married to Dr. Tanya Lopez, a veterinarian in the East Valley. Together,
they have a rescued Standard Poodle dog named Fergus and 2 cats. Loco is an Abyssinian
rescued 10 years ago and Kiki is a domestic short hair cat found as a stray 1 year
