Highly Trained Staff with Decades of Experience
Aguajito Veterinary Hospital's doctors are well-known for their expertise, both locally, and in some cases, internationally. The team is trained to handle all of the "expected" veterinary treatments, but is skilled in utilizing eastern veterinary medicine and less "traditional" treatments as well.

Dr. Williams also has a career-long role as a Monterey Bay Aquarium research scientist, where he initiated the Sea Otter Rescue Program and is the veterinarian for the Tuna Research and Conservation Center (a joint project between Stanford University and the Monterey Bay Aquarium).
