Dr. April Rodriguez

Veterinarian

Dr. Rodriguez is a home-grown Veterinarian from La Mesa. She grew up in Fletcher Hills and graduated at the top of her class from Grossmont High School. As a child, she was inspired to become a Veterinarian after seeing the family’s beloved labrador saved from snail bait poisoning. After high school, Dr. Rodriguez received both her Bachelor of Science in Genetics and her Doctorate of Veterinary Medicine from UC Davis.

She returned to San Diego and has been in general practice working with dogs and cats ever since.

Dr. Rodriguez strongly believes in the bond between people and animals and feels that it is the doctor’s job, as a veterinary professional, to foster and enhance that bond through education and compassionate care. She has extensive training in fear-free methods to help your pet feel their best at the vet.

She is married, has two beautiful children, and continues to enjoy the local neighborhoods.
