Avery Since childhood I have been fascinated with veterinary medicine and the diversity of species. Because of various events I abandoned my dream of becoming a veterinarian and obtained a Bachelor of Science degree in Secondary Education. After being a teacher for three years, I joined the Peace Corps and served in Belize. It was while serving, I decided to try again to complete my preveterinary sciences to be eligible to apply. During Veterinary School, my interests were surgery and zoological medicine. While I applied for residencies in both, I was granted a residency in Small Animal Surgery. After graduation, I went into my Rotating Internship at Texas A&M University where I met Elizabeth A. Russo, DVM, MS, DACVIM. Liz was my first mentor in zoological medicine. She had done a residency in Zoological Medicine at the Bronx Zoo, but I remember her telling me she felt she had not learned medicine. So, she completed at residency in Small Animal Medicine and Surgery and became a Diplomate of the American College of Veterinary Internal Medicine. Her goal was to apply the principles she had learned in her training to become a board certified specialist in Internal Medicine to exotic animal species. While she passed away before I finished my training in Veterinary Surgery, I modeled my career after her, applying the principles and techniques I learned in my training becoming a boarded Veterinary Surgeon to exotic animals. I dedicate this book to Claudio Ribeiro da Silva, my husband and life partner; and to Elizabeth A Russo, DVM, MS, DACVIM for inspiring me to advance the field of surgery in exotic animals. For many years Geoff has pushed me to write this book and, in all honesty, without him this book would never have come to be. All my thanks to you, Geoff!

Geoff There are always pivotal moments and people that change the trajectory of life. For me, I have been lucky to have both hugely influence my life and career. I dedicate this book to my parents, Cath and Bill, who instilled in me a love for nature, and to my family, Dodi, Hannah, and Zach, who instill in me a love for life and have been immensely supportive in this endeavor. I wish to recognize Drs. Jim Carpenter, Pat Morris, Don Janssen, and Scott Terrell who took leaps of faith based on what they saw I could be rather than who I was and have provided me with so many opportunities and learnings that have helped me grow my career and as a person. Finally I would like to thank Avery for being a patient and amazing mentor and encouraging my passion for surgery. “May I make a suggestion?,” as I incorrectly held an instrument, chose an inappropriate suture, planned to cut in the wrong place/grab the wrong tissue, or looked to create too much surgical trauma, lives fondly in my many memories of Avery. Thank you sir.
