"Veritas is dedicated to delivering best-in-class specialty and emergency veterinary services, and to achieve this, we're investing in the most advanced technologies and facilities to address the expanding needs of pets, pet parents, and the veterinary community broadly.

Veterinary Surgical Specialists of Orange County

Since 1990, VSSOC has been a trusted leader in advanced surgical care for pets, providing advanced surgical procedures, including cardiothoracic, oncologic, minimally invasive, neurologic, orthopedic, and soft tissue surgeries, as well as PennHIP screening and diagnostic imaging.

The new, best-in-class Surgery Center, located at 2937 Edinger Avenue in Tustin, opened on February 6, 2025. The center offers a modern, 10,000-square-foot facility designed to elevate the standard of veterinary surgical care and enhance VSSOC's ability to collaborate with other specialists within the Advanced Veterinary Specialty Group. Key features of the new location include advanced diagnostics with a 128-slice CT scan machine, five surgical suites, 10 pre and postoperative treatment bays, 20 oversized canine recovery suites, as well as vast onsite amenities including inpatient and outpatient radiology suites, an onsite laboratory, and a pharmacy.

Founded in 1998, PESCM is the San Francisco Bay's premier emergency and specialty veterinary hospital. The new 28,160-square-foot facility, located at 1 Thorndale Drive in San Rafael, conveniently located within the epicenter of Marin County and a short drive from San Francisco, opened on February 10, 2025 and will more than double the size of PESCM's previous location. The current location at 901 Francisco Blvd. E in San Rafael will remain open to provide another convenient location for urgent care services.

The facility is equipped to handle complex veterinary cases and enables a greater range of specialized care services including emergency, internal medicine, surgery, oncology, neurology, cardiology, diagnostic imaging, and ophthalmology. Prominent features of the center include 15 exam rooms, a 24/7 emergency room, a state-of-the-art intensive care suite, four customized operating rooms, a chemotherapy treatment suite, a dedicated endoscopy suite, a community blood bank, space for group grief support sessions, and all new imaging modalities including an MRI, CT machine, and two X-rays.
