About the guest :
Angela Gliatta's career in healthcare was inspired by her deep passion for animals, particularly dogs, which originally led her to aspire to become a veterinarian. At the age of 17, she shadowed a veterinarian to gain insight into the profession. However, witnessing a procedure on a small chihuahua left Angela emotionally shaken, as she found it difficult to handle the emotional aspects of veterinary care. Realizing that her sensitivities might better serve her in a different capacity, Angela chose to become a Physician Assistant. In this role, she channels her compassion and dedication to care by working with human patients, while still nurturing her love for dogs in her personal life.
