Veterinarian
Dr. Lawrence Rebbecchi Jr., a pioneering force in the veterinary community, initiated a transformative journey in 1991 with the establishment of Philadelphia Animal Hospital, driven by a vision to revolutionize animal care in the heart of Philadelphia. With a resolute goal to provide superior animal care, progressive solutions, and comprehensive services, Dr. Rebbecchi sought to address the unmet need for thorough care options within the city of Brotherly Love. Beginning humbly on Grays Avenue, he diligently cultivated a loyal client base, quickly recognizing the necessity for a more spacious and welcoming environment. Through strategic relocations and expansions, culminating in the current esteemed location at 7401 Holstein Ave since 2015, Dr. Rebbecchi’s commitment to exceptional care and innovation consistently propelled the Philadelphia Animal Hospital to greater heights, leaving an enduring legacy of compassionate service and remarkable veterinary advancements.

Dr. Daria Rebbecchi grew up in South Jersey with a lifelong love for animals of all sizes, inspired by her father, who founded Philadelphia Animal Hospital. She earned her undergraduate degree in Animal Science from the University of Florida in 2016 (Go Gators!) and went on to complete veterinary school at the University of Pennsylvania, graduating in 2020. Dr. Daria brings both a strong medical foundation and a compassionate approach to patient care. Outside of the clinic, she enjoys hiking and camping with her dog Fredo, traveling with her husband and friends, and exploring Philadelphia’s ever-evolving food scene
