Meet our nurse practitioner and her canine children

Sharon has 20 years of patient care experience to include hospital care of the geriatric, internal medicine/family practice clinic care managing chronic complex conditions, weight loss clinic where she created the entire program and managed the patients, government work focusing on the care of immigrants and their infectious diseases, and hospice care focusing on end of life care.  She is extremely passionate about health care.  On her time off, she enjoys time with her canine children.  

Frida is the oldest of the canine pack!  She is 17 years old and a schnauzer mix.  Her personality is antisocial.  She is highly intelligent and "speaks" her mind.  She enjoys sleeping on her bed alone, but every once in a while she comes for some petting.  Frida suffers from congestive heart failure and sees her cardiologist in San Antonio as well as her primary care doctor locally.   

Yoby is 8 years old and is a beagle!  She is very sweet and docile.  She is the perfect "big sister" to her siblings. as she is very nurturing and loving.  She is a big 35 pound beast who thinks she weights 10 pounds.  She loves to eat as well as have her tummy rubbed.  Yoby suffers from high liver enzymes.  She has seen doctors in San Antonio and Austin, but the cause is still unknown.  

Shyler is the baby of the pack!  He is 2 year old and a chihuahua/rat terrier mix.  He is full of energy and life!  He loves to play with toys!  He is a lil menace, but very loving.  He is a jealous lil boy and so will quickly try to stop his siblings from getting love so that he can be the center of attention.  Shyler is a healthy lil thing.  

Dexter is 10 years old and he is a Yorkshire terrier!  He is a lil menace, but very loving and loyal.  He loves going for his walks and giving a bunch of kisses.  When he is excited, he greets you with a huge grin that shows his teeth looking like he's angry and growling.  He's a good lil guard dog.  He alerts at the slightest change in environment.  

Choolies is resting in peace with the doggie angels.  She was the love of Sharon's life.  She was a 6 pound chihuahua who had the heart 1000 times her weight.  She always stopped what she was doing when Sharon was around.  She passed away at 13 years old.  She had some hernias that required surgery and made it out of surgery, but unfortunately her kidneys failed and she ultimately lost her fight.  

Elektra is resting in peace with the doggie angels as well.  She was a 10 pound chihuahua who was very spunky!  She was friendly to strangers with food, but as soon as the food was gone she was a lil terror.  She passed away at 10 years old. on July 4th.  She was mommas American soldier.  She had hydrocephalus, which required lifelong lasix.
