Ying Ngo, DVM, CVA

Growing up with a background in Traditional Chinese Medicine, I discovered my passion for integrative veterinary medicine early on. My father introduced me to Gua Sha and acupressure massage, sparking my fascination with healing modalities. Initially pursuing human medicine, I worked in acupuncture clinics, volunteered at Walter Reed, and conducted research at UMD and FDA.

In 2015, I encountered Traditional Chinese Veterinary Medicine (TCVM) through Dr. Allison Marshall, a veterinarian certified in acupuncture. Inspired, I pursued veterinary medicine, earning a Bachelor’s in Biomedical Engineering at VCU in 2017 and completing my DVM at Virginia-Maryland College of Veterinary Medicine in 2021.

I specialize in integrative medicine, blending holistic and conventional approaches to provide optimal care. Certified in veterinary acupuncture (CVA) through Chi University, I also have experience in pathology, surgery, and exotics.

In my free time, I enjoy lion dancing, spending time with family, and exploring new foods.
