Pet care a family affair at new Oakley veterinary clinic
""We wanted our clinic to feel like a home instead of a sterile, cold corporate clinic," Alexa Ojala said. "When you walk in, you will be greeted by our mom (Tuli Ojala) and me. We will get you seated in either one of our cozy examination rooms or on our patio that is overlooking the (Sacramento-San-Joaquin River) Delta. Our dad, Clint Ojala, is here pretty frequently helping out too.""
""We are very close as a family and have a huge passion for animals," Alexa Ojala said. "It felt like this was always our path to advocate for pets and support pet parents. We wanted to create a safe environment for pets and their pet parents.""
""There are a few father-son or father-daughter clinics in Contra Costa County, but we are the only sibling-run clinic (in East County)," Alexa Ojala said."
Ojala Family Pet Care opened June 30 in Oakley at 98 Big Break Road, operated by siblings Dr. Austin Ojala and Alexa Ojala. The clinic serves a wide range of animals and presents a family-run, community-focused alternative to corporate veterinary hospitals. The siblings returned to East Contra Costa County and identify their practice as the only sibling-operated clinic in East County. Strong family ties and plans for nearby family homes in Brentwood influenced the decision to open the practice. The facility emphasizes a home-like, nonsterile environment with family members greeting clients and supporting pet-care decisions centered on transparency and pet-parent needs.
