About Us
Trusted Veterinary Care for Dogs, Cats, Cattle and Equines
Yucca Veterinary Medical Center was founded in 2013 by Dr. Florian Sanchez to provide compassionate, advanced veterinary medicine to dogs, cats, equines and cattle in Yucca Veterinary Medical Center and throughout Valencia County. Every day, our mission is to keep our patients healthy and our clients happy by delivering high-quality, affordable care.
Why Is Preventive Care for My Pet So Important?
Take the most important step to protect your pet's health with our comprehensive pet wellness programs, which include regular examinations, dental care, customized vaccinations and parasite prevention. Just like with your own health care, identifying issues before they become serious is the key to long-term good health and keeping the lifetime cost of caring for your pet as low as possible.
What Should I Do if My Pet Becomes Ill or Needs Surgery?
Even with the best preventive care, illness and injury can happen. When your pet needs care, you can rest assured that Dr. Sanchez and our medical team have the skill and resources to help your pet feel better as quickly as possible. Our wide range of diagnostic and surgical capabilities, supported by our advanced veterinary technology, help us ensure your pet will receive unsurpassed care delivered with compassion and sensitivity.
Equine and Cattle Medicine
Along with our comprehensive veterinary care for companion pets, we also provide a wide range of services for cattle and many types of equines, including racetrack horses, breeders, events, backyard, ranch and working horses. Dr. Sanchez, who grew up on his family's cattle ranch in Bosque, is committed to making sure that cattle and equine owners have access to high-quality, affordable medical care for their large animals.
