Dear pet owners, clients, patrons, and friends,

The writing of this letter is bittersweet for me as I know how much you value the care I have provided for your family pets over the years.  On September 19, 2024, the ownership and operation of Coral Reef Animal Hospital transferred from my wife, Tatiana Langford, and I to Shonte Bishop-Mwakyanjala, DVM, and her husband Edson Mwakyanjala, MD.  Dr. Bishop is a 2018 graduate of University of Florida College of Veterinary Medicine. She is very excited about this new opportunity and the chance to continue serving each of your pets’ needs.  Dr. Bishop has been a resident of the Jacksonville area since 2018 and is an accomplished veterinarian. I am confident that she will continue to provide the level of medical care and customer service you have come to expect and appreciate from our staff and hospital.

Over the past thirty years I have been blessed to serve you and your pets.  It has been both a calling and a privilege and I will miss you. I thank you for your kindness and your continued loyalty.  As I move into this new phase of my life, I ask that you extend to Dr. Bishop and the staff the same understanding, commitment and friendship you have graced me with all these years.

With warm appreciation,

Richard Langford, DVM
Grateful Former Owner, Coral Reef Animal Hospital
