Ari E. Rozycki, DVM

Dr. Rozycki is a 1995 UC Davis graduate who has been a practicing small animal veterinarian in San Francisco for more than twenty years.  While in private practice, he realized what a difference home visits make in helping pet owners "say goodbye" to their loved-ones.  Being able to choose a loving and familiar environment is so important for our pets and for our last memories.
