Welcome Dr. Antinoff!

Natalie Antinoff, DVM, Diplomate-ABVP Avian specialty

Dr. Natalie Antinoff obtained her DVM from the University of Wisconsin and continued on to do an Internship in small animal medicine and surgery followed by a residency in Avian & Exotic Pet Medicine and Surgery. In 1997, following her ABVP board certification, she established Gulf Coast Avian & Exotics as a part of Gulf Coast Veterinary Specialists. This was the first specialty exotics practice operating as part of a referral center in the US!

She served as a board editor (consultant) for VIN (Veterinary Education Network), providing interactive information to veterinarians nationwide. She has also served on the board of several veterinary journals and mentored over 25 veterinary interns in exotic pet medicine. In her spare time, Dr. Antinoff enjoys traveling, rollerblading, and bicycling - often combining all of these on the same trip! She lives with a number of wonderful pets including Mojo (a terrier mix), Louie (a miniature dachshund), Kaiya (a great dane), Zephyr & Zuzu (cats), Gracie (an African grey parrot), and Big (a macaw).
