Dr. Acosta graduated from Indiana’s Purdue University College of Veterinary Medicine in 2004 after an eight-year enlistment in the U.S. Navy. Fleeing the bitter cold of the Midwest, she quickly headed south and practiced small animal medicine and surgery in Homosassa, Florida for five years. She also worked part-time in an emergency hospital in her spare time.
Dr. Acosta joined our emergency department in 2010 in order to make emergency and critical care medicine a full-time endeavor. She has an interest in integrative medicine and offers Acupuncture services in a limited capacity. When she is not working, she enjoys spending time with her English Bull Terrier. She also enjoys yoga, running, obstacle racing, water life on the Gulf Coast and theater.
See All Our Specialists"A big thank you to Veterinary Emergency Referral Center on Davis Hwy in Pensacola, for the wonderful care they took of our Stella Marie. Stella decided to try one of her dad’s heart meds last night and enjoyed an overnight stay at this fine facility. From the moment we walked in, we were greeted warmly by Makayla and Stacy, before Stella was whisked back for care. We had to leave our girl overnight in the capable hand of Dr. Kristin Navarro and vet tech, Joy. Treatments, plans and options were thoroughly explained by a very caring Dr. Navarro and Joy. The same group was finishing up a long shift when we picked Stella up and were just as friendly and concerned for Stella and us. A scary and worrisome experience was made so much better by the group at VERC."
