Dr. Jorge Ruiz, DVM

With over 30 years of dedicated service to the Glendale community, Dr. Ruiz has become a trusted name in veterinary care for countless families and their beloved pets.

A graduate of a respected veterinary school in Colombia, Dr. Ruiz continued his professional training at the prestigious University of Guelph in Ontario, Canada. There, he completed the qualifications required to obtain his veterinary licenses in both the United States and Canada.

His lifelong commitment to small animal medicine has provided him with extensive experience in general medicine, surgery, and preventive care. After serving nearly eight years as Medical Director within a prominent veterinary corporation, Dr. Ruiz returned to private practice, bringing with him a renewed dedication to personalized, compassionate care. In partnership with his long-time colleague, Dr. Villicaña, he proudly reopened his clinic with a clear mission: to offer high-quality veterinary services at affordable prices.

Dr. Ruiz understands the importance of accessible care and the deep bond between pets and their families. From the same location that has served the community for over 40 years, his practice continues to provide a warm, professional environment where every pet is treated like family.

On a personal note, Dr. Ruiz has been happily married for over 30 years to his lovely wife, Luz Amparo—a psychologist and teacher—who has played a vital role in his growth both as a veterinarian and as a person. Together, they share their home with two adorable cats, Lolita and Moose, who bring joy and inspiration to their daily lives.
