Background

About

Dr. Julia Tawil is an emergency veterinarian at VEG ER for Pets in Chandler, Arizona. She earned her Doctor of Veterinary Medicine from Midwestern University in 2026, after completing a B.S. in Biology at Stonehill College.

Before veterinary school she spent years working hands-on in clinics and hospitals: as a veterinary technician in general practice, as an emergency and critical care technician, and in laboratory animal care. That time in the treatment room shapes how she practices today: calm, thorough, and focused on keeping owners informed at every step.
