History
As a small child, Dr. Dariece Senderak was actually rather afraid of dogs, and her family didn't keep pets. That all changed when her father brought home Velvet, a German shorthaired pointer puppy who quickly stole her heart. Dr. S assisted her dad in training Velvet to become a phenomenal bird dog and field trial champion and later helped deliver and raise a litter of Velvet's puppies. Discovering the profound connection she felt with these dogs, Dr. S nurtured her passion for animal behavior and biology in high school and college. Dr. S attended Notre Dame High School and Fairfield University in Connecticut before continuing her education at Purdue University's School of Veterinary Medicine. Her first job as a DVM was at a small practice in the Ocala National Forest in Florida. Dr. S eventually bought the practice, married and raised 3 children while working full time at her Forest Veterinary Clinic in Silver Springs, Florida for the next 15 years. Then, in the year 2000, Dr. Senderak took ownership of the Animal Hospital of Richmond after relocating with her family to the Richmond area. She considers herself lucky to be able to work with animals and people who love animals, and is particularly fond of the problem-solving aspect of her work. Dr. S loves serving alongside her wonderful and competent pet care team in order to make the lives of pets and their owners better.
