Come Meet Barbara Guse, PT, CCRP
CERTIFIED CANINE REHABILITATION Practitioner


          Barb is our licensed physical therapist. A graduate of Northwestern University Medical School Programs in Physical Therapy, her background includes orthopedic, sports and work related injuries. Since 2001, Barb has partnered with veterinarians to work exclusively in small animal rehabilitation, and was among the first group of professionals to become certified as canine rehabilitation practitioners (CCRP) through the University of Tennessee. Barb spent the last four years in a busy teaching hospital setting at the University of Minnesota Veterinary Medical Center. She provided physical rehabilitation and conditioning services for small animal patients referred to her by surgery, neurology and general practices. We are excited to have her join our "Vet Specs family" and hope you will take advantage of both her expertise and our awesome therapy/rehabilitation equipment.
