Dr. Berman was born and raised in downtown Chicago.  She always knew she wanted to work with animals and for career day, when she was 4 years old, she dressed up as a veterinarian. While in high school, Dr. Berman shadowed a local clinic which helped to solidify her desire to pursue veterinary medicine. 

Dr. Berman graduated from Emory University in Atlanta, Georgia with a B.A. in psychology. She focused her studies on animal behavior. While in college and during her time off before veterinary school, she had the amazing opportunity to work with Capuchin Monkeys, Rhesus Macaques and Chimpanzees at Yerkes National Primate Research Facility in Atlanta.

Dr. Berman attended the Cummings School of Veterinary Medicine at Tufts University. During veterinary school, she had the unique opportunity to travel to Rwanda and work alongside veterinary students at the University of Rwanda to study how traditional medicine is used for animals. Following graduation, she completed a one-year rotating internship at VCA Alameda East here in Denver. Dr. Berman has a special interest in pain management strategies and public health. During her time off, Dr. Berman loves spending time with her friends, traveling and going on new adventures with her dog Zoe.
