After an incredibly meaningful chapter with VCA, I’m excited to share that I will be transitioning into relief veterinary medicine throughout the Coachella Valley.
I am deeply grateful for the mentors, colleagues, clients, and patients who have contributed to my growth as a veterinarian and made this time so special. I have only fallen more in love with the Palm Springs community since becoming “Dr. Aaronson,” and I can only imagine it is what my dad felt for over 40 years operating on his patients with the same joy I feel in my heart.
As I begin this next chapter, I’m excited to continue serving hospitals and patients across the valley while expanding opportunities for flexible and community-focused veterinary care.

Thank you to everyone who has supported me along the way — I look forward to continuing to care for the pets and people of this community in a new capacity. ❤️🐾
The Faux Fur Ball was a truly spectacular night ✨
Reflecting on the expansion of Greater Palm Springs Animal Allies—now bringing together the @palmspringsanimalshelter , @desertwildlifecenter , and @desert_community_animal_center —all made possible through the incredible support and collaboration of our community 🤍🐾
I had so much fun with the @girlscouts from troops 2171 and 2172 helping them to earn their responsibility and pet care badges! They even made adorable cards thanking those adopting dogs & cats from the @palmspringsanimalshelter ! The next generation of women in STEM! ❤️🩺👩🏼⚕️
🐶 Ever wonder what it really takes to turn a love for animals into a career?
Students on Tiggbee just heard from Peyton — and her story is inspiring.
Peyton always knew she wanted to help animals, and today she does exactly that as a Veterinarian at VCA Animal Hospital. From diagnosing illnesses to performing surgery and calming nervous pets, her days blend science, communication, and compassion in powerful ways.

I am truly grateful to have been selected to serve as a MAP Ambassador in partnership with the @banfieldfoundation . During this mission, I joined an incredible team in Hilo and Maui to provide high-volume spay/neuter surgeries and vaccinations for pets in low-income and rural communities. It was an honor to help expand access to veterinary care and to support the health and wellbeing of animals and the families who cherish them. 🌎❤️
