Get to know me

Hello! I’m Stephanie Altamirano, the founder of Vet Tech Insights, a consulting business dedicated to empowering veterinary professionals through specialized training and resources in veterinary diagnostic imaging. My journey in the veterinary field began over a decade ago, fueled by a passion for animal care and driven by a dedication to veterinary science.

My Journey

After earning my Associate Degree in Animal Science from CSI, my commitment to advancing my expertise in veterinary medicine led me to pursue a Bachelor’s Degree from Penn Foster. Currently, I am working towards my Veterinary Technician Specialty (VTS) in Diagnostic Imaging and anticipate this by 2026.

Over the past ten years, I have honed my skills as a veterinary technician, with the last four years dedicated to specializing in diagnostic imaging. My experience covers multiple aspects of veterinary medicine, from general practice to anesthesia, surgery, and emergency medicine. This diverse background has provided me with a unique perspective on the critical role that effective diagnostic imaging plays in veterinary care.

Beyond The Clinic

Outside the clinic, I’m happily married with two daughters. Together, we share a love for the outdoors. Whether it's hiking through the wilderness, collecting mushrooms (we love morels!), or simply exploring nature, our adventures are always accompanied by our beloved pets - Maple, our golden retriever, Griz, our black lab, and Charlie, our rabbit. These experiences reinforce my connection to animals, driving my passion for animal care both professionally and personally.

Why Vet Tech Insights?

Vet Tech Insights was born from a desire to share my knowledge and experience with fellow veterinary professionals. My goal is to enhance the capabilities of vet clinics and professionals through targeted training and comprehensive resources in veterinary diagnostic imaging. By elevating the standards of diagnostic practices, we can improve patient outcomes and advance the field of veterinary medicine together.

Thank you for visiting my page. I look forward to the opportunity to collaborate and contribute to the success of your veterinary practice through Vet Tech Insights.
