Coastal Rivers Pet Hospital Dr. Smetschka
What first attracted Dr. Smetschka to veterinary medicine was a deep desire to help animals and their people. 
​While not having any additional official certificates beyond her veterinary medicine degree, Dr. Smetschka enjoys taking continuing education seminars on a wide variety of topics related to her work, and staying abreast of any new developments that are available to help her patients and clients live a healthier, more enjoyable life. 

Outside of work, you can find Christine gardening and hanging with her dogs.
​Dr. Smetschka has achieved certification in the Human-Animal bond: The NAVC Human-Animal Bond Certification prepares veterinarians and animal care staff to meet the bonding needs of both pets and their owners. The program delivers a thorough evaluation of the science, communication, community engagement, animal welfare and wellness, and medical care needed to create and maintain a positive human-animal bond.
Dr. Smetschka has achieved Fear Free Elite Level
