She graduated from the University of Sydney in 2003 and began her career working with farm animals in Australia. Dr. Shum moved on to small animal practice in 2007 working in Singapore, Sydney and finally in Hong Kong. Her experience has guided her to develop an interest in animal rehabilitation, complementary medicine and geriatric care.
Dr. Shum obtained certification in Acupuncture with the International Veterinary Acupuncture Society in 2011 and has integrated this therapy as a regular part of her practice in animal rehabilitation and pain management. In 2016, Dr. Shum began to apply homeopathy, specifically homotoxicology with her first patient being Finn her black dog who suffered from acute liver disease. Homotoxicology is now regularly applied on both young and senior patients and is also used on patients with end-stage diseases.
