💙MEET THE TEAM MONDAYS💙

The first person in our weekly series is our wonderful owner and boss, Dr Jonathan Wald. Dr Wald founded Central Broward Animal Hospital in 1987. His love of animals shows through the amazing hospital he has built. He opened the practice with the intention of people coming in knowing that their important family member would receive the best care available to keep them healthy.

Role in the practice: Founder, owner, and veterinarian

Pets: a Golden Retriever – Hudson and a Chihuahua – Peter Edward and 3 horses Beau, Teddy, and Fionn

Favorite memory as a vet: starting an animal hospital and putting a team together to help animals, which has always been my cause.

Go to driving soundtrack: anything classic rock

Hobbies: hiking, enjoying the outdoors, working on antique cars

Fun fact about myself: I used to be scared of dogs until my father got me a dog from the Humane Society when I was 5, and being an animal lover himself told me “You can’t go through life being afraid of dogs"

If I could be any breed (dog or cat) what would I be: That’s a tough one … owning a Chihuahua and a Golden Retriever I always say to myself “do I want to go through life being a Chihuahua where I’m always on guard and protecting everyone and supervising everything or do I want to be a Golden Retriever where I’m always happy and love everybody and everything?” I would choose Golden Retriever.
