UC Davis Hobbs Veterinary Center is Now Open!

Formerly the UC Veterinary Medical Center, San Diego, we have moved, grown and changed our name. Our new name is the Janice K. Hobbs UC Davis Veterinary Medical Center Southern California (or, UC Davis Hobbs Veterinary Center).

As the Southern California center of the UC Davis Weill School of Veterinary Medicine, we provide world-class veterinary care to referring veterinarians and pet owners, now with expanded services and a larger space. Our growth allows us to care for more Southern California animals, helping them live healthier, happier lives while expanding regional resources, clinician training and collaborative support.

Our facilities are brand new. We are seeing existing clients and taking new referrals to our existing services as we have capacity. We are still establishing our new services and bringing them online in late October and early November. Thank you for your patience as we begin a new era of emergency and specialty care in Southern California.

Featured Services
