We are excited to welcome Dr. Trish Diudea to our CVVH team as our newest VGAL! A Veterinary Graduate Awaiting Licensure (VGAL) is a fully trained veterinarian who is currently practicing under the supervision of a licensed DVM while completing the final steps toward full veterinary licensure. This role allows them to continue developing clinical skills and delivering compassionate care as they transition into independent practice.

Dr. Diudea’s journey in veterinary medicine began in Romania, where she was born before immigrating with her family and ultimately becoming both a U.S. and Canadian citizen. She completed her veterinary education abroad and later made Colorado her home, spending 11 years establishing both her personal and professional roots.

Outside the clinic, Dr. Diudea is passionate about the outdoors and adventure. She is an avid equestrian who competes in endurance riding with her Arabian horse, Whiskey. When winter arrives, you’ll often find her snowboarding or spending time in the mountains.

Please join us in welcoming Dr. Diudea — we are thrilled to have her as part of our CVVH family!
