Hobbies / Interests / Family

Dr. Tag has been practicing exclusively at emergency referral practices since entering veterinary medicine. Her favorite part of this job is helping people, whether owners, the referring veterinary community or co-workers, understand the best way to apply a patient’s diagnostic and treatment options to achieve the owner’s goal given the complexities of the case and situation. In addition to her responsibilities as Managing Veterinarian for Pet+E.R., Dr. Tag also oversees our Emergency & Critical Care Internship program. 

When Dr. Tag is not working at Pet+ER, she enjoys spending time with her husband, Rene’, two kids, Ali and Eli, relaxing at a local vineyard with live music, swimming, gardening, or just being outside with their two dogs and three horses and many chickens!
