Mission Gorge Animal Hospital in Grantville has operated at 6690 Mission Gorge Rd in San Diego's 92120 ZIP since Dr. David Lee founded the practice in 1992. The clinic handles routine wellness exams, vaccinations, dental cleanings and extractions, radiography, general surgery, and orthopedic procedures including ACL repair on dogs. Mission Gorge Road is the dominant commercial corridor running north through Grantville toward Mission Trails, and the clinic draws pet owners from Allied Gardens, Del Cerro, and the east-side neighborhoods accessed via the 8 freeway. Veterinary compounding prescriptions filled at Alvarado Compounding & Retail Pharmacy in Allied Gardens handle the custom-dosage and flavored-medication needs that Dr. Lee's patients require for long-term treatment protocols. The dental program uses ultrasonic scaling to remove tartar below the gumline, followed by polishing and fluoride application under general anesthesia with continuous vital-sign monitoring. Dr. Lee's tenure on Mission Gorge Road since 1992 has built multi-generational client relationships, with families returning for successive pets over spans exceeding two decades. Pet-safe landscaping consultations at Armstrong Garden Centers on Mission Gorge help Grantville dog owners identify and remove ASPCA-listed toxic plants from yards where clinic patients exercise. The radiography suite produces diagnostic images on a digital capture system that displays results on a treatment-room monitor within seconds of the exposure.
