Ryan Svoboda, DVM was born and raised in the Valley of the Sun. Working alongside his father, a veterinarian, he knew at a very young age that he had a passion for veterinary medicine and wanted to follow in his father's footsteps. Dr. Ryan Svoboda received his undergraduate in Agribusiness from Arizona State University, and received his Doctorate of Veterinary Medicine from Texas A&M University.

Dr. Svoboda and his wife Liz have been married for 3 years, and as one might expect, they have a multitude of animals at home including, a Norwegian forest cat, a rough collie (just like reveille), a chiweenie, a puggle, and a plethora of fish (including a foot long Oscar named Betty). While he loves all aspects of veterinary medicine, Dr. Svoboda especially enjoys dermatology, advanced imaging, and practicing exotic medicine (birds, ferrets, reptiles, etc). When he is not devoting time to his beloved pets or patients, he enjoys writing, cooking, hiking with his wife, and keeping up with the Phoenix Coyotes. As owner of Hayden Road Animal Hospital, Dr. Svoboda is eager to meet both you and your pets and to provide you with the high quality care you deserve.
