After a decade in emergency veterinary medicine following her 1983 graduation from UC Davis, Dr. Kevin Scoggin purchased Grand Animal Hospital — the Pacific Beach practice she continues to operate at 1033 Grand Ave Apt B, San Diego, CA 92109. Her path to veterinary medicine began at Florida Institute of Technology, where she studied oceanography, before transferring to pre-veterinary coursework at San Diego State University and completing her doctorate at UC Davis. Patients can pick up post-visit food and supplies at Ralphs, located in the same Pacific Beach neighborhood. The hospital runs seven days a week — Monday through Saturday 8 AM to 8 PM, Sunday 9 AM to 8 PM — with Dr. Scoggin covering morning and late-afternoon appointments and Dr. Behrman handling the midday block, and both veterinarians performing surgeries Monday through Friday. Grand Animal Hospital is endorsed by the San Diego House Rabbit Society and sees rabbits, guinea pigs, rats, birds, and other pocket pets daily alongside routine canine and feline patients. Surgical capabilities include spay and neuter procedures as well as lumpectomies, laceration repairs, ear hematoma repair, and foreign body removal. Lead technician Jessica, a San Diego native who joined the staff in 2005 and later earned her Registered Veterinary Technician credential, oversees a surgical and dental program that clients consistently describe as precise and compassionate. Owners stocking up on food, carriers, or recovery supplies can visit Petco on Garnet Avenue, just minutes from the clinic. Urgent care appointments are available without a referral, making Grand Animal Hospital a dependable first call for Pacific Beach pet owners facing unexpected health concerns.
