Biography and Research Information

OverviewAI-generated summary

Sue M. Neal's research investigates the accessibility of veterinary care, particularly in relation to human healthcare access and spatial modeling. Her work has explored the development of a Veterinary Care Accessibility Index and examined the capacity and distribution of veterinary services, identifying areas that may function as "veterinary care deserts."

Neal has also contributed to research on animal sheltering and welfare, including conceptual analyses of critical research problems. Her publications address the socioeconomic patterns associated with dog acquisition and rehoming, as well as the human-animal bond in the context of community cats. Additionally, her research has touched upon policy alternatives for establishing veterinarian-client-patient relationships virtually and explores humanist approaches to mentoring in public service.
