Dr. Joan T. Burkhart
University of Illinois College of Veterinary Medicine 1988
Professional associations:
American Veterinary Medical Association
American Animal Hospital Association
Illinois State Veterinary Medical Association
Chicago Veterinary Medical Association |
Dr. Burkhart began her veterinary career at North Center Animal Hospital immediately upon graduation from school in 1988. The neighborhood, Lake Michigan, and the Cubs drew her to the practice. The wonderful clientele and her coworkers have kept her here ever since.
Dr. Burkhart is particularly interested in soft tissue surgery and dentistry. Although she really enjoys seeing her patients and their families for preventative care, she feels that there is nothing more gratifying than seeing a pet through a successful recovery from an illness or injury.
When she's not at NCAH, she's busy raising her son and daughter (can you say soccer mom?) with her husband Jim. They all care for Jake the black lab, Clark the 19 year old cat, and Gippy the hamster. Dr. Burkhart claims that if she lived on a farm, she'd have six goats and three more dogs (and another cat or two).
