Our History

After graduating from the University of Florida College of Veterinary Medicine in 1985 and working in Winter Park until 1991, Dr. Paul Curasi opened University Animal Hospital in the Suncrest Village shopping center.  In 1999 we opened our new 6000 square foot facility on University Boulevard to better provide for our patients. Our services include internal medicine, soft tissue and orthopedic surgery, dentistry, radiology, cardiology and ultrasonography consultations, professional grooming, and boarding. We feature two state of the art surgical suites along with a complete medical diagnostic center.  Appointments are preferred, but walk-ins are welcome.

About AAHA

University Animal Hospital is an accredited member of the American Animal Hospital Association (AAHA). Only 15% of veterinary hospitals in the U.S. have achieved this accreditation. Our hospital is evaluated regularly by AAHA to ensure that we meet or exceed the association’s standards of excellence. These standards cover nearly every aspect of our hospital, including surgery, pharmacy, laboratory, exam facilities, pet health records, cleanliness, emergency services, dental and nursing care, diagnostic imaging, pain management and anesthesiology. AAHA standards are recognized around the world as a benchmark for quality care in veterinary medicine.
