The Heart Behind Forever Loved

Dr. Christina Barber grew up in a small town in northern Michigan before earning both her Bachelor of Science and Doctor of Veterinary Medicine degrees from Michigan State University. After graduation, she relocated to Arizona, where she has spent nearly two decades caring for pets and their families in emergency and general veterinary medicine. 

Throughout her career, Dr. Barber has had the privilege of guiding families through difficult medical decisions, experiences that deepened her understanding of the human–animal bond and inspired her to create Forever Loved Veterinary Services. She believes that choosing a peaceful goodbye is one of the greatest gifts we can offer the pets who have shared our lives. Her goal is to create a calm, peaceful experience where families can focus on simply being together.

​Today, Dr. Barber provides compassionate in-home euthanasia care throughout the East Valley, helping beloved pets remain in the comfort of home during their final goodbye. Outside of her practice, she and her husband are raising their two young children in the Southeast Valley alongside two gentle greyhounds and two curious cats.​​
