Our Location

We’re located in San Bruno, CA, which is basically the southern bedroom of San Francisco. It has an urban feel but many of the benefits of a smaller, suburban community: crime is relatively low, people are super nice (which means we have great clients) and the schools are great. We’re just a few minutes from the breathtaking California coast and it’s only a short drive or BART ride into the city.  We have team members who commute from San Francisco, many places on the Peninsula, and some parts of the East Bay.  There is plenty of parking at the practice, and we’re also walking distance to the San Bruno BART station.

Our Offer

• Our full time, production-based compensation currently ranges from $170,000 to $230,00
• Production base of 25% - much higher than industry standard
• 401K with employer match
• Access to group health and dental insurance
• PLIT liability insurance 
• Employee pet discount
• Unlimited time off (within reason) and flexible scheduling for child care and things that come up in life

Your Coworkers

We generally have three to five doctors working each day, so you won’t be working solo.  Our experienced, highly collaborative team of doctors consists of:

Jennifer Roossien, DVM (UC Davis, 1995)
Eric Barchas, DVM (UC Davis, 2000)
Courney Maeda-Brescia, VMD (Penn, 2004)
Sara Gonzales, DVM (UC Davis, 2005)
Jennifer Lawrence, DVM (UC Davis, 2007)
Erica Chiu, DVM (UC Davis, 2011)
Katherine Harrington, DVM (UC Davis, 2011)
Robin Heagy, VMD (Penn, 2013)
All of our doctors are always happy to bounce ideas off each other, offer second opinions on unusual cases, evaluate radiographs together, and help out in surgery or the dental suite if an issue arises.
