Ocean County Veterinary Hospital is pleased to announce the addition of Mindy Feldman, DVM, to their Veterinary Staff. Dr. Feldman graduated from Cook College, Rutgers University, in 1992 with a BS degree in Animal Sciences. In 1996 she graduated from The New York State College of Veterinary Medicine at Cornell University.
