Dr. Layla Ghuzlan is a compassionate veterinarian whose journey into animal care was inspired by her beloved cat, Romeo. Originally from Leesburg, Virginia, she followed her passion for science and medicine by earning a bachelor’s degree in biochemistry from the University of Virginia and a master’s degree in pharmacology from Georgetown University. She went on to receive her Doctor of Veterinary Medicine degree from Midwestern University.

Dr. Ghuzlan has called Arizona home for the past five years and loves being part of a community that shares her appreciation for animals and the outdoors. She is passionate about all areas of veterinary medicine, with a particular interest in surgery, where she finds great fulfillment in helping improve her patients’ quality of life.

When she’s not in the clinic, she enjoys painting, gardening, and spending time with Romeo—the cat who started it all.
