He was accepted to veterinary school after only 3 years of undergraduate studies; and after receiving his DVM in 1991, he continued his training at North Rockville Veterinary Hospital in Rockville, Maryland before moving to Atlanta in 1992.

He loves music (big Dave Matthews Band fan), movies, painting with acrylics, and playing golf. His areas of veterinary interests include dermatology, internal medicine, and surgery. He recently had a local radio segment, "Critter Chatter".

He married his classmate, Dr. Francoise Tyler, in Septemeber, 1993. They have 4 children; son David (9/97) and daughters Tyler (5/99), Gabrielle (11/01), and Olivia (7/03). They also have 4 dogs (Gypsy, Harley, Angel, and Max) and 3 cats (Fagan, ZigZag, and Caleb).

Dr. Will was honored as one of Atlanta's "Best Vets" in the Feb. 2009 issue of Atlanta Magazine - his third consecutive honor in the publication.
