An Indiana native, Dr. Scavuzzo had a particular interest in emergency medicine during vet school and completed an ECC internship at DoveLewis after graduation.

She has chosen to continue her career at Cascade Veterinary Referral Center and joined as an ER/ICU doctor in May of 2020. Her special interests include trauma, toxins, and emergency surgeries. Although Dr. Scavuzzo works exclusively in emergency medicine, she volunteers with shelters and rescues as much as possible.

Dr. Scavuzzo has two cats of her own, Westley and Mae, the best dog in the world, Bowser, and a precocious puppy, Yoshi. She enjoys sand volleyball, reading, hiking, and travel. Her love of globetrotting has taken her to Costa Rica for study and South America, Europe, Iceland, and Africa for adventure. During her free time, you can find her out hiking with her dogs in an endless quest for the forest road less traveled.
