Our Veterinarians

Andra Dumitrescu, Veterinarian

Dr. Andra Dumitrescu
Veterinarian

My name is Dr. Andra Dumitrescu. I grew up in Romania and I have always been passionate about veterinary medicine and biology in general. Veterinary medicine is my second career.  I was previously a Molecular Biology and Biochemistry professor and researcher, and a high school AP Biology and AP Environmental Science teacher. As a veterinarian, I am passionate about soft tissue surgery and I am dedicated to maintaining the health and well-being of all of my small animal patients, along with educating owners on how to preserve and improve the health of their pets.

Stan Kunin, Veterinarian

Dr. Stan Kunin
Veterinarian

Dr. Stan Kunin was raised on a 44 acre chicken ranch in north San Diego. Spending his youth with his knowledgeable grandfather, he learned about chickens and the menagerie of other animals residing there including horses, dogs, cats, a goat, and a pig. It was there that he fell in love with the idea of becoming a veterinarian. Dr. Kunin graduated from U.C. Davis School of Veterinary Medicine in 1978, after which he completed an internship program in West Los Angeles. During his internship he worked emergency shifts while concurrently learning from specialists who trained him in internal medicine, surgery, ophthalmology, dermatology, and exotic animals. He is married with three grown children and one grandchild. When not working he enjoys performing magic (once a member of The Magic Castle), playing and discussing baseball, and traveling with his family.
