Elevating the standard of avian medicine, one bird at a time
The BIRD Clinic is a veterinary clinic located in Orange, California, specifically dedicated to the treatment of pet birds. We are proud to be a point of reference for avian medicine in Southern California and beyond. Our mission is to advance avian medicine and provide the best possible care for our patients.
