About Us

By providing exceptional medicine at affordable costs, our goal is to improve the accessibility of veterinary care to rescue groups and animal shelters in the greater Los Angeles area.

Living on the streets of Los Angeles threatens a pets well-being.

Dogs and cats are commonly rescued sick, malnourished, with injury, and have untreated medical conditions.

Founded by Dr. Margaret Lee in 2022

As a veterinarian working with municipal animal shelters and non-profit organizations, I have witnessed the challenges in providing rescue animals with veterinary care.

I decided to develop Veterinary Rescue Alliance in an effort to improve this accessibility to high quality veterinary medicine.

It is the organization’s mission to make a difference within this community of animals.
