This Veterinarian Is Walking Around California Treating Homeless People's Animals For Free

Dr. Stewart Kwane is a heroic veterinarian who is making a real difference in the world. He has always been an animal lover and spent much of his formative years trying to save stray animals, and this eventually set him on the path to becoming a veterinarian and he’s been saving countless of animals ever since. Now, he’s known as “The Street Vet” because of the amazing work he’s doing to help the pets of California’s homeless population.

Back in 2007, when the US was hit by an economic crisis, Dr. Kwane began to realize that in order to be truly helpful and make a difference in the world, he needed to start helping those who were struggling to provide their animals with proper medical care. "I'd been practising high-end medicine for clients who could pay for everything. But suddenly I was thrown into this economic war and people couldn't even afford to help their pets," Dr. Kwane told CNN.
