Santa Monica Pet Medical Center Dr Stephanie Prado

Veterinarian

Dr. Stephanie Prado earned her undergraduate degree from California State Polytechnic University before taking a break from the veterinary world to work in hospitality. She later decided to follow her heart back to animals and attended The University of Sydney in Australia, where she received her DVM in 2021.

Dr. Prado loves all areas of veterinary medicine, with special interests in preventive care, internal medicine, and helping pet parents understand how to keep their companions healthy and happy.

At home, Dr. Prado shares her space with what she calls her “mini zoo,” including her very needy (and very loved) cat, AA. When she’s not caring for animals, she enjoys going to the beach, hiking, and catching a K-pop concert or K-drama when she can.
