Our Story
Dr. Ron Scharf received his Doctor of Veterinary Medicine degree from the veterinary school at Cornell in 1985. He celebrated his 25th anniversary on June 12, 2010, in Ithaca with over 20 of his fellow classmates. He still loves practicing veterinary medicine and the opportunity it gives him to help animals and their owners. Dr. Scharf bought the Friderici Animal Hospital in 1993 from Dr. Arthur Friderici. A veterinary hospital that has been accredited by the American Animal Hospital Association since 1946 -- one of only 10 veterinary hospitals in the country to be able to boast such an accomplishment -- speaks to Dr. Art's devotion to high quality veterinary care, and to that of his uncle, Dr. Ken Friderici, who established the hospital in 1936. Dr. Scharf spent much of 1987 and 1988 studying with the International Veterinary Acupuncture Society and became accredited in veterinary acupuncture in 1988. He studied in Richard Pitcairn's Professional Course in Veterinary Homeopathy in 1999 and 2000 and was well-instructed in this therapeutic modality by one of the pre-eminent practitioners of complementary and alternative veterinary medicine in this country. Dr. Scharf believes that there are many things we can do to help our pets' well-being and alleviate discomfort. It is good to be able to have more therapeutic modalities available to alleviate animals' suffering. Dr. Ron believes in the importance of thorough nursing care in the delivery of health care. That "human touch" is critical and can often make the difference between success and failure in helping a dog or cat regain good health and comfort. We enjoy getting feedback about the care that we work hard every day to give you and your pets. Please let us know how we are doing, and if you have anything you'd like to see done with our page.
