Dr. Richard Philip Decktor, VMD

Richard followed in his father's footsteps, pursuing a career in veterinary medicine.

After attending the University of Delaware, Richard studied veterinary medicine in Parma, Italy, before earning his VMD from the University of Pennsylvania in 1980, 35 years after his father, Philip Decktor, graduated from the same school.

In the mid-1990s, Richard established Decktor Veterinary Hospital & Clinic in Woodstown, New Jersey. His practice has served pet owners and farmers throughout southern New Jersey, caring for animals ranging from dogs and cats to horses and livestock.
