Our History
The Hollywood Animal Hospital was originally built in 1947
by Dr. C.E. Dee and Dr. I.C. Frederickson on what was then the western edge of
the City of Hollywood. The announcement of their practice at 2864 Hollywood
Boulevard was sent to the community on November 1, 1947. The phone numbers at
that time were Hollywood #1253, Ft. Lauderdale #862 and Miami # 7-7727.

In 1978, we completed the construction of our current
medical facility and in 1996, opened the Outpatient Clinic, which is also
referred to as the Annex, located next to the hospital.
In 2010, the construction of our final addition commenced adding several thousand square feet to our practice and expanding our services to include a comprehensive Canine Physical Rehabilitation Center and CT scanner facilities.
In 2014, Veterinary Centers of America (VCA) purchased our practice and included us in a family of practitioner over 750 strong.
