Dr. Chahal is a 1982 graduate of Punjab Agricultural University Ludhiana, India. He worked for 3 years in Large Animal Medicine seeing patients like cattle, buffalo, sheep, goats, pigs, horses and camels. Being a cowboy’s son, he had a compassion and love for animals, becoming a Veterinarian was his destiny. After graduation he operated a small animal clinic in India for a year before migrating to the USA in 1986. After rigorous training and taking his board exams, he received his California Veterinarian License in 1989, launching his career in the Bay Area. Dr. Chahal opened his first practice in 1991, which grew by leaps and bounds, making it possible to build a state of the art practice in Southern San Jose. In 2021, after a medical leave and recovery, Dr. Chahal found himself in Sonoma County taking over Rohnert Park Veterinary Clinic, ready to get back to what he loves most –working with pets, which from a profession and passion has become his compassion and his life. All of Dr. Chahal’s practices have thrived on four pilars – Professionalism, Honesty, Integrity and Ethics. Dr. Chahal enjoys the beauty of Sonoma County and finds it to be a nice, quiet city with nice people. Dr. Chahal can often be found walking his French Bulldog, Chance around our community.
