Dr. Loper is the proud new owner and Medical Director of Milton Animal Hospital. He attended the University of Illinois, in Urbana Champaign, where he received a Bachelor's degree in animal science with a focus on Veterinary Medicine. After undergrad, he worked at a local veterinary clinic as a Veterinary Assistant before being accepted to the University of Illinois School of Veterinary Medicine. After graduation, he spent the better part of a decade practicing in central Florida at a busy 14 doctor referral practice. He has a special interest in soft tissue surgery, exotic animal medicine, and preventative care.
In his spare time, Dr. Loper enjoys exploring the great outdoors; some of his hobbies include fishing, kayaking, and hiking. He has always had a special interest in exotic animals such as reptiles, birds, rabbits, pocket pets, and, of course, he loves working with cats and dogs.
He currently only has one furry family member, a beautiful gray tabby cat named Belle, or Bella Bear. He also maintains multiple fish tanks and an extensive reptile collection, which consists of mostly rescue animals.
