Feline Abdominal Ultrasound - Dr. Jennifer Babineaux
TBD- Dr. TBD

Learn from two experts in Veterinary Medicine and expand your knowledge on Feline Abdominal Ultrasound  and _____ in New Orleans. The Kimpton Hotel Fontenot is located in downtown and was awarded a Reader’s Choice Award by Condé Nast in 2023 and is pet friendly and offers a complimentary wine hour each evening. New Orleans has been built on a musical legacy equal parts traditional and improvisational — and now, Kimpton Hotel Fontenot is taking a page from that songbook by riffing on the standard Crescent City hotel, creating something contemporary and new. But it still embodies the NOLA spirit and honors the area’s over-the-top style with a few surprises, including the magnificent Peacock Room (Voted Best Bar in the US in 2022), an ornate gathering spot filled with a menagerie of prints and patterns. Expect five-star service that’s anything but stuffy, chic design mixed with playful touches, food and drink that satisfies the soul, and an atmosphere that has the chops to impress locals and visitors alike.

Feline Medicine and Diagnostic Imaging

Jennifer Babineaux DVM, MBA, DABVP (feline)

Dr. Jennifer Babineaux graduated from the UC Davis School of Veterinary Medicine in 2005 and completed an internal medicine residency at VCA East Bay Veterinary Specialists in 2009. During her residency, she developed an interest in feline medicine as well as in using ultrasound as a daily diagnostic tool for challenging internal medicine cases. Dr. Babineaux worked in the internal medicine departments of the San Francisco SPCA and VCA San Francisco Veterinary Specialists. In 2014, she became an ABVP Diplomate (Feline Practice). Dr. Babineaux relocated to Philadelphia in 2014, where she developed a mobile ultrasound and internal medicine consulting practice serving more than 25 hospitals, including 4 feline-only practices. Dr. Babineaux currently provides mobile ultrasound and internal medicine consulting in Ashland, Oregon. She enjoys teaching veterinarians ultrasound skills, and advocates for the routine use of ultrasound to diagnose challenging internal medicine cases in general practice. Dr. Babineaux considers cats an especially ultrasound-deficient species.
