Dr. Brian J. Golden, DVM
I attended Colorado State University's school of Veterinary Medicine. During my sophomore and junior years I interned in an equine and exotic animal hospital. I worked at Marineland of the Pacific and Marine World. Upon graduation in 1975, I opened my companion animal hospital - Lake Murray Village Veterinary Clinic in La Mesa. Additionally, I worked as a consulting veterinarian at Sea World on marine mammals and their penguin and exotic bird collection.
The companion animal practice consist of general veterinary medicine, surgery, internal medicine, dentistry and some exotic animal medicine. My goal is to practice quality medicine and give compassionate care to every patient. There is an emphasis on the pug breed as I have had five pugs; Otis, Jasmine, Bella, Samantha, and Hannah.
When not working at my practice, I spend quality time with my family; Sunny, my wife and sons Brad and Rory. We enjoy traveling, cooking gourmet meals taking fishing trips surfing, kayaking, paddle boarding, hiking, yoga camping and running the dogs at the beach.
I try to live my life to the fullest - both in my professional and personal pursuits.

Dr. Chamkaur Brar, DVM
Dr. Chamkaur S. Brar grew up on a small farm in India. In 1981, he completed his Bachelor of Veterinary Science from Punjab Agricultural University, now “Guru Angad Dev Veterinary and Animal Science University” one of the top most universities in the country. He then migrated to the United States in 1989, and completed his Doctor of Veterinary Medicine in 1992, after completing a one year internship at Tuskegee University in Alabama.
Dr Brar then opened his first practice, the Pine Valley Veterinary Clinic, in 1994. Dr Brar continued to live in Alpine and hoped to move his practice closer to his community, so in 1998, he opened another practice here in Alpine, the Country Pet Clinic. After construction of a new building, he joined the two practices together as today’s Country Pet Hospital in 2000. He is the current owner of Lake Murray Village Veterinary Clinic as of April, 2018. He enjoys all aspects of veterinary medicine, but ultrasound diagnostics and surgery fascinate him most. Dr Brar has performed hundreds of orthopedic surgeries including many TPLOs (tibial-plateau-leveling osteotomy). He continues to expand his knowledge of veterinary medicine, learning new surgical techniques and diagnostic methods.
