Dr. Kaya Lee was born and raised in Maui, Hawai’i. She grew up with a variety of animals including chickens, goats, and dogs. She also had a love for showing dogs as a junior handler. As a little girl, she often accompanied her mom, who worked as a veterinary technician. It was there that her love for veterinary medicine began.
Throughout high school, she volunteered at local veterinary clinics which further solidified her love for the profession. When it came time for college, she left the ocean and palm trees behind for Colorado State University where she obtained her B.S. in Biology. Following her undergraduate education, she continued her studies at Colorado State University, receiving her Doctorate of Veterinary Medicine in 2023. Her special interests include cardiology, soft tissue surgery, and dentistry. In veterinary school, she also became known for her deep love of chihuahuas. Following veterinary school, she and her husband wanted to be closer to family which prompted the move back to Sacramento. Dr. Kaya Lee is very excited to join the SAH family!
Dr. Kaya Lee and her husband live in Sacramento with their naughty little chihuahua puppy, Stuart. Outside of the clinic, she enjoys painting, drawing and curling up with a good book.
