Rethink, Renew and Rise! About us …
Rise Pet Health was born from the desire to create a specialty veterinary practice that truly puts pets, pet parents, and our team members at the heart of everything we do. Our 20,000 square foot specialty clinic is located in Orange County, California. In building Rise, we reimagined everything about specialty care – from the way our clinic looks to how we work together to save pet lives.
And now, we are looking for a third board‑certified criticalist to join our growing practice and work alongside our team of:
- Three board‑certified internists
- Two board‑certified surgeons
- Two board‑certified oncologists
- One board‑certified neurologist
- One certified acupuncturist
- Two board‑certified criticalists
- Seven emergency doctors
In addition to our current team, on‑site consultations and echocardiography are provided by a board‑certified cardiologist as part of our multidisciplinary approach to critical care. Every criticalist at Rise has an ICU team that is competent and confident with procedures and other treatments. We provide and maintain the best equipment to allow our criticalists the ability to provide all types of challenging and rewarding procedures.
Our equipment includes:
- GELOGIE

Our dedicated ICU and doctor’s office share a glass design allowing for strong visibility of patients and close collaboration with associates while maintaining workflow. In addition, we have two designated emergency wet tables for critical patients and procedures and one wet table within the ICU all equipped with comprehensive monitoring, oxygen and suction. Future plans for the department include incorporating mechanical ventilation and the intent to work towards Level 1 VetCOT trauma center status.
