Stephen Hodgeson, DVM

Veterinarian

Dr. Hodgeson has been practicing veterinary medicine since 2008. During that time he worked in a high-volume general practice under two more experienced veterinarians which allowed him to gain valuable experience in general medicine and surgery. Dr. Hodgeson also opened a house call practice to serve the Inland Empire helping families and their pets in the comfort of their own homes. Additionally, Dr. Hodgeson provided relief services to many different practices in the Inland Empire, which allowed exposure to a diverse number of practice philosophies and different medical practice techniques.

Dr. Hodgeson is excited about hospital ownership and feels that with the partnership of Dr. Boshoven as well as the commitments from support team personnel, we will provide top-quality care to you and your pet family members.

David Boshoven, DVM

Veterinarian

Dr. David Boshoven’s love of animals originated in Grand Rapids, Michigan, where he grew up. His childhood was spent tending to a collection of animals from dogs, cats, birds, and hamsters, thanks to his fully supportive parents who allowed him to adopt any and every kind of pet possible. With his interest in medicine and his love for helping animals, Dr. Boshoven decided to become a veterinarian right after high school. He then attended Michigan State University as an undergraduate and in 1992, graduated as a veterinarian. After graduation, Dr. David Boshoven moved to California to begin his career and to reunite with his immediate family. Eventually, he began a family of his own and now has four beautiful children. Dr. Boshoven has been a veterinarian now for almost thirty years and has gained fifteen years of experience as a practice owner. Not only does he practice preventative care but devotes many hours practicing emergency at the local animal emergency hospital.

Dr. David Boshoven has a reputation of building strong relationships with his clients and making their pets’ needs a priority. He is also extremely passionate about cultivating a positive working environment. He is consistently making sure that his team has fun while learning and contributing. Not to mention, Dr. Boshoven is a proud member of the Opossum Society of the United States, as he has contributed to the well-being of many kinds of critters.
Outside of work, Dr. David Boshoven enjoys spending time with his children, going to the movie theatre, attending symphonies, and spending time at the beach
