Meet Our Team of Doctors
Dr. Deborah Rodriguez, DVM
Brooksville Veterinarian and Owner of Animal Health Veterinary Clinic
Dr. Rodriguez graduated from Michigan State University in 1987. She moved to Florida in 1991 for the weather! She remembers wanting to be a veterinarian since she was 5 years old!
She purchased Animal Health in 2007 and remains an independent owner, not to be dictated by corporate interests. Her special interests are surgery, ultrasound, and dental procedures.
For her, it has remained of utmost importance to retain excellent doctors (Dr. Collazos and Dr. Readdy) and staff who really care about the patient and their owners!
When she is not at the clinic, she spends time with her human family, chihuahuas, horses, cats, and silkie chickens. She also enjoys spending time on the road on her motorcycle and time boating on Hernando Flats.
Dr. Francisco Collazos, DVM
Brooksville Veterinarian
Dr. Collazos is a dedicated small animal veterinarian with over 22 years of experience. He graduated from Ross University in 2004, and since then, has devoted his career to the care of cats and dogs. Working primarily here in Hernando County, Dr. Collazos has built a reputation for compassionate, thorough care, especially for his feline and canine patients.
Outside of veterinary medicine, Dr. Collazos is an avid hiker and runner, and he also enjoys flying planes. At home, he is a proud father of two boys and shares his life with his beloved cat, Cattrick.
Whether in the clinic, on a trail or in the sky, Dr. Collazos brings a passion for learning, adventure and lifelong care to everything he does.
