F. Navarro, DVM

Emergency Care

Dr. Navarro was born and raised in the fun loving and foodie state of Louisiana. Her parents supported her love for animals, and she grew up with dogs, cats, chickens, sheep, goats, cows, pigs, ducks, geese, rabbits, a horse and even a brother. She started college in the fall of 2009 at Louisiana State University from which she graduated with honors. After three years at LSU, she entered Louisiana State University: School of Veterinary Medicine, from which she graduated in 2013. She then moved to Las Vegas and practiced small animal general practice medicine and surgery at Valley Ranch Animal Hospital for four years where she worked for Dr. James Nave and was mentored by Dr. Reese and Dr. Massey-Walters.

In 2017, Dr. Navarro moved to Port St. Lucie, Florida, and began working in Emergency Medicine at the Animal Emergency and Referral Center with Dr. Lymen. This is where Dr. Navarro found her love for emergency medicine.

Dr. Navarro moved to the beautiful Pensacola area to work with Dr. Bordelon and the VERC team to follow her passion for emergency medicine in 2019.

Dr. Navarro has a three-pound Yorkie named Octavia. Octavia (Tavi) fostered and convinced Dr. Navarro to adopt a cat they named Olivia, who is Tavi’s best friend. When Dr. Navarro is not working, she enjoys reading, walking, and spending time with her family back home in Louisiana.
