Dr. Davila with Avanza Veterinary Surgery
With Avanza Veterinary Surgery, Dr. Davila hopes to make surgical treatment more accessible to pet owners in the Denver area including those who would benefit from an explanation of the treatment in Spanish. She also strives to help guide and support the Family Veterinarian throughout the process while maintaining and strengthening their relationship with their patients.
Dr. Davila is a board-certified Diplomate of the American College of Veterinary Surgeons and owner of Avanza Veterinary Surgery. She grew up in the Chicagoland area where she attended DePaul University with a focus in Marketing. Soon after, she worked in the hospitality & trade show industry for several years prior to pursuing her passion for veterinary medicine. She earned a BS in Biology from Benedictine University in 2003 and a DVM from the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign in 2007. Dr. Davila then went on to complete a 1-year rotating internship in small animal medicine & surgery in Illinois followed by a 1-year specialty internship in surgery in Colorado before returning to the Midwest to complete a 3-year surgery residency at the University of Minnesota.
She returned to Colorado in 2012 where she practiced in a Denver multi-specialty referral hospital for the next 10 years. In addition, Dr. Davila has helped other Denver area specialty referral hospitals as an emergency surgeon on call.
When not helping pets, Dr. Davila enjoys spending her free time with her husband, her 2 children and 2 dogs, Simon and Henry. Once all the human and fur babies are asleep, she and her husband enjoy playing the occasional strategy board game with their friends.
