Dr. Deborah D. Wilson of Scottsdale, Arizona is being profiled on NBC Nightly News series, “Making A Difference” for her “Top Doc” skills as a surgeon and “Top Dog” rescue work of animals.
Phoenix, AZ (PRWeb) 28, APR 2009 - It’s not unusual to see Dr. Deborah Wilson at Scottsdale Memorial Hospital in the surgery room performing laparscopic surgery, then later that evening watch her pick up an injured dog on the side of the road. As the owner of a highly successful gynecological surgical practice, founder of Circle L Ranch, Feathers Foundation and Circle M Ranch, it’s all in a day’s work.
Wilson has been honored for her work in an episode of NBC Nightly News in their popular “Making a Difference” segment. In this segment, Wilson discusses her commitment to both animals and people.
“Life itself has a value,” Dr. Deborah Wilson says during the national broadcast. “Be it the life of a horse, or the life of a goat, or the life of a dog, or the life of a human... They all have value.”
Wilson has been saving animals since she can remember. “It just seemed natural to take my love of animals to a new level.” Her animal rescues allow her to do this.
“She saves people’s lives during the day, then saves the lives of animals at night,” says Caron Loerber, a volunteer for Mixed Up Mutts. “She commits herself to just about every humanitarian cause, but animals hold a special place in her heart and she has been an inspiration to many.”
With two locations and numerous willing foster homes, Wilson has been successful in pulling hundreds of dogs and cats off of the euthanasia list. Her work also extends to horses on feedlots where animals are being sent to slaughter in Mexico and Canada, and also includes the rescue of goats, sheep, chickens and even two geese. Wilson and affiliated rescues recently succeeded in raising funds and outbidding slaughterhouse buyers for 19 horses, 10 of which were pregnant.
