Dr. Desiree Santoso
Dr. Desiree Santoso was born and raised in the San Francisco Bay Area. She earned her undergraduate degree in Integrative Biology from UC Berkeley before obtaining her Doctorate in Veterinary Medicine from Western University of Health Sciences in Pomona in 2015.
Following veterinary school, Dr. Santoso pursued advanced training in internal medicine, surgery and emergency care through an internship at Iron Horse Vet Care in Dublin, CA. She is interested in providing compassionate, high-quality veterinary care to her patients and their families.
Outside of the clinic, Dr. Santoso enjoys gardening, crafting, Disneyland, and making special memories through trips with her family. She and her husband share their home with their two young daughters, two beloved dogs, Lahni and Kaia, and a loving cat named Kittie also referred to as Lil Miss Stinker.
Fun fact: If Dr. Santoso ever decides to change her last name to her married name, she would be Dr. Miao - pronounced "meow"- a purr-fectly fitting name for a veterinarian!
