About Us

Altimira Veterinary Hospital is a full service veterinary hospital conveniently located three blocks from the Sonoma town square in Sonoma California. Founded in 1970, Dr. Forsythe purchased the practice in 1999 and later moved from his rented space on Boyes Blvd and Arnold Drive when he was fortunate enough to purchase the historic Goodman house to permanently contain his dream veterinary hospital.

When Altimira Veterinary Hospital moved to the new location in 2005, we incorporated a new digital X-ray system and many other technological upgrades that have made practicing veterinary medicine more exciting and cutting edge and allowed us to help many pets in more profound ways.

At Altimira Veterinary Hospital we come to work every day ready to play full out, ready to have a great workday, committed to doing what is best for your pet. Our team of professionals is dedicated to your pet and making your experience here extraordinary.

There is no "tension" you can cut with a knife that people say they have sometimes felt at veterinary practices that don't have a harmonious staff.
