Our History
Our hospital was founded in 1948, and since then, we have been providing comprehensive pet healthcare services to the community. In 1966, Dr. Paul D. Clary and his wife, Alice, purchased the then San Francisco Veterinary Hospital, and the Clary family's legacy in the veterinary field began. Dr. Clary's passion for veterinary medicine and his dedication to providing exceptional care to his clients and patients set the standard for our hospital. Today, we continue to build on the legacy of the Clary family, committed to nurturing and supporting the bond between you and your pet.
