Dr. Sara Hartzell-Duhm serves as Hospital Medical Leader at the Petco veterinary hospital in Turlock, treating dogs and cats with nearly 16 years of veterinary experience since graduating from Colorado State University. Her clinical interests include cardiology, with a sharp ear for detecting low-grade heart murmurs and diagnosing arrhythmias, alongside advanced soft tissue surgery, dentistry and oral surgery, and endocrinology cases like complicated diabetics and adrenal disease. She takes a calm, patient approach with pets and their owners, pausing whenever an animal feels stressed and returning to the exam only once they're comfortable. Sara is also committed to working within a family's budget so every pet gets the care it needs, and outside the hospital she enjoys diamond painting.
