ABOUT THE SPEAKER

Dr. Bloom is a Certified Fear Free® Practitioner and American Association of Feline Practitioners Cat Friendly Certified. He founded Bloom Animal Hospital in 1984, eight years after graduating from the College of Veterinary Medicine at Michigan State University (MSU). That same year he became a Diplomate of the American Board of Veterinary Practitioners (ABVP), a certification renewed in 1994, 2002, and 2012. In 1987, Dr. Bloom began training in advanced veterinary dermatology and was one of only two doctors selected from the Metro Detroit area to participate in a dermatology clerkship at MSU. Then in 2001, he became Michigan’s FIRST board-certified veterinary dermatologist by the American College of Veterinary Dermatology® (ACVD) in full-time private practice – one of only 380 diplomates of veterinary dermatology in the entire United States. Dr. Bloom is currently one of only 10 double-boarded veterinary dermatologists in the nation. This means he not only has the depth of training (ACVD) but also the breadth of training (ABVP) in veterinary medicine to offer you the best care possible. In 2019, he received the MSU CVM Distinguished Alumni Award – Practitioner; a prestigious award given only to the most exemplary of Michigan State’s alumni. At that same ceremony, he received the 2019 Philanthropist of the Year for his work with the Mexican Equitarian Clerkship and contributions to support equine residents at MSU. When Dr. Bloom is not at the animal hospital, he serves as an adjunct professor at his alma mater (go Spartans!). Some of his students have and continue to complete their dermatology rotation at Bloom Animal Hospital, and in the summer of 2019 he is beginning a new phase at the hospital as a veterinary dermatology residential director. Dr. Bloom and his wife Susan reside in South Lyon with our many pets: one dog, one goat, one sheep, two miniature donkeys, three cats, and two horses. It’s a full house!
