Dr. Becky Morrow is a graduate of The Ohio State University College of Veterinary Medicine. She transitioned into academia after six years of small animal practice and was introduced to shelter medicine through a service-learning project with a local HQHVSN organization. She became fully immersed in shelter medicine while assisting with a large-scale animal cruelty case – managing the veterinary care of hundreds of cats for over a year and providing forensic documentation and testimony for the court. She earned a master’s degree and two graduate certificates (veterinary forensics and shelter medicine) from the University of Florida and became a Certified Animal Welfare Administrator (CAWA). Dr. Morrow has since performed tens of thousands of spay/neuters, taught HQHVSN to veterinary students and veterinarians, and worked on dozens of forensic cases. She has served on the boards and as the medical director of multiple NPOs and a veterinary molecular diagnostic laboratory. In addition to the University of Florida, she teaches at Penn State University and is the President and Medical Director of Frankie’s Friends in Pittsburgh.
