Elysa Braunstein, VMD
Veterinarian, VMD
Dr. Braunstein  was born and reared in New York until the age of seventeen, when she attended the undergraduate biology program at the University of Pennsylvania.  Following graduation, Dr. Braunstein traveled to the West Coast and completed a Master’s Degree in Anatomy before heading back to Pennsylvania for a veterinary doctorate from “Penn Vet."  The prestigious University of Pennsylvania School of Veterinary Medicine has been a national Top Ten program since being established in 1887.  UPenn awards a Veterinary Medical Doctor degree, so you will note that Dr. Braunstein is a VMD rather than a DVM.  The degrees are equivalent doctorates.  Following her graduation with honors in 1993, Dr. Braunstein spent the following year in Los Angeles completing an internship in small animal surgery and emergency medicine under the tutelage of the world-renowned veterinary surgeon Larry Lippincott who, among his many accomplishments, cared for the 36 white tigers and 16 white lions owned by Siegfried and Roy.  Dr. Braunstein’s internship was followed by four years in a feline-only practice before joining the Pet Medical Center in Santa Monica, California in 1997.  In her spare time she enjoys endurance riding, (an interest she shares with Dr. Garlinghouse) on her three horses Gabe, Libby and Splendor and providing concierge services to her two birds, Dino and Bozo, and two cats, Termite and Cat.
