Focusing on surgeries, including spay/neuter, amputations, enucleations, growth removals, and dentistry procedures, Dr. Koontz is part of the shelter veterinary team at Operation Kindness. Having graduated from Oklahoma State University with a B.S. in Animal Science, he also graduated from Oklahoma State University Center for Veterinary Health Sciences with a DVM (Doctor of Veterinary Medicine). In 2013, he moved to North Texas to practice small animal medicine and surgery, mostly with nonprofit organizations, before joining Operation Kindness in August 2021. Dr. Koontz enjoys spending his free time with his two rescue dogs named Betsey and Oatmeal.
“Joining the team at Operation Kindness is a wonderful opportunity to provide care to animals in need of support,” said Dr. Koontz. “I’m excited to be a part of an organization working to better the lives of dogs and cats.”
