In Memory of Dr. Les Smith
Veterinarian
Dr. Les Smith, a cornerstone of St. Georges Veterinary Hospital for over 30 years, passed away on May 17, 2013. He was 59 years old.
Dr. Smith attended Rutgers University for his bachelor’s degree in wildlife biology and the Universidad de Guadalajara School of Veterinary Medicine for his Doctorate of Veterinary Medicine. After graduating, Dr. Smith joined St. Georges Veterinary Hospital. He remained a partner at the hospital until the end of his career.
He had a lifelong thirst for knowledge, returning to Rutgers University in 1989 and earning a master’s in Library Science in 1996.
Dr. Smith was also passionate about health and fitness. He was an avid backpacker, yoga student, and skier.
Those of us lucky enough to have known him will always remember his generous heart, dignity
We love our clients!
Thanks to Dr. Dorney and modern meds this was a great experience. Will visit again with my other dog…Also the place is in the process of a face-lift which will be nice when finished.
