Consultant, Cardiology
Dr. Kazdin received her VMD (Doctor of Veterinary Medicine) degree from the University of Pennsylvania School of Veterinary Medicine after earning her bachelor’s degree in Biology from Tufts University. After completing a year-long internship at the ASPCA Animal Hospital in New York City, she began work as an emergency veterinarian at Red Bank Veterinary Hospital. She completed a three-year cardiology residency at Red Bank Veterinary Hospital in New Jersey and has since been practicing as a veterinary cardiologist in large veterinary specialty hospitals (including Red Bank Veterinary Hospitals in Tinton Falls, Hillsborough, and Mount Laurel) for 13 years.
While most of her career has been spent in the tristate area, she has traveled all over the world in her volunteer work with Rural Area Veterinary Services, including volunteer neuter and vaccinations for horses in Guatemala, and spay and neuter services for cats and dogs on the San Carlos Apache Reservation in Arizona. She has also volunteered for the Wildlife Conservation Society reserve for Humboldt penguins in Peru.
In 2025, Dr. Kazdin started Traveling Heart Vet to make veterinary cardiology services more accessible to a wider range of patients, to encourage early heart interventions as well as specialty care, and to improve the well-being and promote longevity of our four-legged family members.
