Dr. Chapman graduated from the University of Florida College of Veterinary Medicine in 1999 before relocating to San Diego where he completed a one-year rotating internship in small animal medicine and surgery. He has lived in Los Angeles since 2000, working primarily emergency duties, including a stint at TLC in 2004-2005.

Dr. Chapman returned to TLC as a full time associate in 2012. A West Hollywood resident, he can be spotted regularly walking his dog, Six, to and from the hospital. While not caring for pets, Dr. Chapman enjoys playing guitar, snowboarding, and single malt scotches from the Hebrides. While not being pet, Six enjoys chasing squirrels, barking at suspicious sounds, and shamelessly hounding TLC techs for treats.
