About Us

Our History

Downtown Pet Hospital first opened its doors in March 2005. This pet hospital is built on the location of the first veterinary clinic in Orlando, FL which was established in 1937. The practice, originally opened by Dr. W.M. Lynn in 1926 out of his home, was continued by his nephew Dr. D. Lynn at its present location. Initially, Dr. Lynn serviced both small and large animals, with horses and cows being brought up to his door! Please come by our clinic to see this progression in pictures!

Dr. J. Califf and Dr. E. High purchased this practice/building from Dr. Lynn and it was completely renovated in the early 2000s. Dr. Christine McCully joined the practice in 2005, and helped grow Downtown Pet Hospital to what it is today, culminating with purchasing the entire practice in May 2019. We have hired many wonderful veterinarians over the years, and have an incredible team of 4 veterinarians and support staff at this time!
