Owner

Arbor Doctor LLC

(Environmental Services industry)

February 2005 — Present (4 years 10 months)

ISA Certified Arborist OH 5177A
Member, American Society of Consulting Arborists
Plant health care professional, horticulturist, landscape professional.
Arbor Doctor LLC is a full service tree and shrub care company. We specialize in the care, treatment, preservation, and installation of woody landscape plants using the most innovative methodologies and up to date information. We are different from most other companies in that we are a business which passionately strives to be on the cutting edge of constantly evolving research and technology. It is not acceptable to come out and spray shrubs on a calendar basis. Today's Plant Health Care practitioner must combine a knowledge of the entire ecosystem and the interactions therein in order to provide a service which is both valuable and environmentally sensitive.
