Richard Kirchgatter was a DVM.
He was a great doctor who treated my cat, who had saved my cat due to a birth defect.
He is a Great Doctor who I will never forget.
Thru his expert Vet. Services, my cat lived a long, life of 18 years.
He was a great person, great personality, and a great Vet.
He is truly missed by all his patients(pets)and mankind.
God Bless You.
