Kevin SchlangerKevin Schlanger, DVM, is the owner of Westside Animal Medical Associates and chief veterinarian of Brent-Air Animal Hospital, located in Los Angeles. After a successful career as a management consultant for Price Waterhouse and the ew Jersey Transit Corporation, he decided that his true calling was caring for animals. He was accepted to the top veterinary school in the country, the University of California, Davis--a notable achievement for an out-of-state applicant. During his four years there, he received numerous awards and scholarships, including the prestigious Payday Luff Memorial Scholarship for excellence in oncology and infectious disease and the Theodora Peigh Scholarship for demonstrated contributions in international programs. He graduated with honors in June 2000. Dr. Schlanger first worked as an associate at an animal hospital in West LA. In 2003, he took over the practice at Brent-Air Animal Hospital. In two short years, what was a small one-doctor practice became a bustling three-doctor practice complete with boarding and grooming facilities. Dr. Schlanger quickly became one of the most sought-after veterinarians in Los Angeles, and Brent-Air Animal Hospital is now one of its most respected facilities. Nutrition is one of Dr. Schlanger's areas of expertise. In addition, he gives back to the community by working with nonprofit rescue groups such as Best Friends Animal Society and Westside German Shepherd Rescue. Dr. Schlanger and his wife, Suzanne, are the proud parents of four children, Nicky, Aviva, Orly, and Michaela, as well as two dogs, Sydney, a Cocker Spaniel, and Sulley, a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel.
