Sunday Closed History:
El Camino Veterinary Hospital was founded nearly thirty years ago by Dr. Ennis Ogorsolka.

We are proud to be able to offer our community personalized care for your pets, imaging options for diagnostics, in-house labs, a vaccine clinic , boarding and a wide range of surgical services. Dr. "O" pioneered personal pet cremation when many veterinarians saw their clients struggling to decide what to do after the death of a beloved pet. He opened the hospital in the same location we occupy to

day. Dr. Robinson and his wife bought the practice in 1992 and over the years have built up the practice. All of the equipment has been upgraded to include a digital X-ray machine and ultrasound imaging devices. El Camino continues to put an emphasis on continuing education so that our entire staff uses the most modern veterinary methods. AAHA Accredited:
Accredited by the American Animal Hospital Association (AAHA), our practice must demonstrate an exceptional level of care and service.

To maintain our status as an accredited practice, we voluntarily undergo periodic, comprehensive evaluations. To receive accreditation, we must demonstrate compliance with over 900 standards. We are proud to be an AAHA-accredited practice and believe it keeps us focused on providing you and your pet with the quality and full range of services you expect and deserve. Mission Statement:

We’re delighted to introduce our newest veterinarian to the team, Dr. Goodwein! 🥳 Dr. Goodwein brings vast experience and a passion for animal care. Growing up in the Salinas Valley and studying at Cal Poly SLO, she went on to attend Western University in Southern California. After completing a Small Animal Rotating Internship at VCA California Veterinary Specialists, she was eager to return to the Central Coast with her significant other and settle down closer to home 🏠, sharing their life with Ozzy, 🐶 a lovable shelter pup, and Celia, 🐱 a one-eyed cat with plenty of personality. Dr. Goodwein also has a deep passion for 🦭 marine mammals—especially elephant seals—and volunteers with The Marine Mammal Center, supporting the rescue, rehabilitation, and release of stranded marine life along our coast. In her spare time, you’ll find her hiking, paddle boarding, enjoying the beach, and appreciating all that our beautiful Central Coast 🌊🌅 has to offer. Dr. Goodwein has already been caring for our patients through drop-off services, and she is now available for scheduled appointments. Share a warm welcome in the comments for Dr. Goodwein! 📞 (805) 466-6677

Our team recently took part in a Zoetis Petcare education session to learn more about the benefits of injectable 💉 NSAIDs for our beloved patients 🐶🐱. When our pets are in pain, we want to ensure they get the best care possible. Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs 💊 (NSAIDs) play a crucial role in controlling pain and reducing inflammation in patients. We have options like Librela and Solensia, a once-a-month injection💉 specifically to help osteoarthritis. These treatments and others are designed to offer lasting comfort and improve your pet's quality of life. If you think your pet could benefit from this, contact us to set up an appointment! ☎️ We're here to help them feel better and support an active lifestyle. 805 466 - 6677

Today is National Dog Walker Day! 🐕 Take a moment today to say THANK YOU to the amazing dog walkers who are always there with a smile and a leash, ready to make tails wag. 🐾 Show appreciation by tagging your dog walker or sharing a photo of your pup enjoying their walk!

Whether it’s a limp, reluctance to walk, or changes in behavior, they play a crucial role in spotting signs of pain that we might miss. 🐶❤️ Sept is Animal Pain Awareness month; movement is medicine for pets. If your dog walker has noticed anything unusual, it might be worth checking in with your vet. (805) 466 – 6677 ☎
