Dr. Ditson’s extensive veterinary career dates back to 1997 when she was able to complete a veterinary assistant program in high school. After graduating, she worked several different veterinary jobs, starting as a kennel employee and working her way up to a certified veterinary technician! Dr. Ditson worked as a CVT through the years until receiving her DVM, and she has now been working as a full-time veterinarian for the past eight years. Her love for animals and exposure to her high school veterinary program is what inspired her to follow a career path in veterinary medicine. In this career, Dr. Ditson loves to aid animals and their humans through every stage of life, all while fostering her love of science, education, and problem-solving.

Dr. Ditson has been a Floridian for the past 39 years and still loves being a member of the Palm Harbor community. In her free time, she enjoys spending time with friends, family, her dachshund, and three cats. When she is not on the water boating, Dr. Ditson loves to travel, and hopes she and her family can visit all 50 states one day!
