Board-certified Veterinary Behaviorist

Dr. Kuntz is a Diplomate of the American College of Veterinary Behaviorists and an associate veterinarian at Insight.

Dr. Kuntz grew up in the western suburbs of Chicago. While attending college at Washington University in St. Louis, she carried out a research project at the Saint Louis Zoo studying the abnormal behaviors of a chimpanzee with a sensory processing disorder. This project introduced her to the fascinating world of animal behavior and inspired her to become a veterinarian.
