of Orange County
Dr. Lisa Shimomura, an Orange County native, attended UCLA for undergraduate studies and then UC Davis School of Veterinary Medicine in California, graduating in 1996. She has since been providing healthcare for dogs and cats (and the occasional rat and rabbit!) for nearly 14 years, licensed in both California and Montana, where she had spent 5 years prior to relocating back to Orange County.

In 2008, Dr.Lisa began working solely with spay and neuter programs in Orange County and has been focused on providing high quality spay and neuter surgeries ever since. She has successfully performed over 3,000 surgeries within the last 2 years alone, and has become quite passionate on the issues of homeless pet population.
By creating Simply Spay and Neuter of Orange County at Lake Forest Animal Clinic, Dr. Lisa will now
continue to provide the needed services at an affordable price that may now
allow most, if not all, pet owners to have these procedures
performed. She will be working
closely with Dr. Missy Byers and her staff as they look forward to an exciting
and new opportunity and challenge.
Dr Lisa now resides in Orange County with her husband, Iain, and her son, Jaxon. But the two dogs, Marley and Sandy, and two cats, Thomas and Monster, reign supreme. You can find her in her off-time, hiking a local hill or riding her bike, but mostly spending time with family and friends.
