Dr. Julia Troncoso is a veterinarian specializing in wildlife conservation and exotic animal medicine who currently practices at Citrus Park Animal, Bird and Exotics Hospital. A Florida native, she earned her DVM from Auburn University College of Veterinary Medicine after completing a master's in veterinary shelter and forensic medicine at the University of Florida.

Dr. Troncoso has worked as a licensed Florida wildlife rehabilitator for over seven years and is a Certified Wildlife Rehabilitator (CWR) through the International Wildlife Rehabilitation Council. She currently serves on the board of Owl's Nest Sanctuary for Wildlife. Bilingual in English and Spanish, she provides comprehensive care for a diverse range of patients, from household pets to exotic species, on her small hobby farm.

Throughout her training, Dr. Troncoso gained experience at various prestigious institutions. She completed externships at the Animal Care Center at Busch Gardens in Tampa, FL, and Clinic for the Rehabilitation of Wildlife (CROW) in Sanibel, FL. She also spent several months at the Jacksonville Zoo and Botanical Gardens in Jacksonville, FL, honing her skills in zoological medicine. Her passion for exotic animal care led her to pursue extended rotations in exotic animal and raptor medicine, as well as an exotic-only externship at Broward Avian & Exotic Animal Hospital in Deerfield Beach, FL.

While exotic animal medicine is her primary focus, Dr. Troncoso's professional interests also include dermatology, oncology, and small ruminant medicine. This diverse skill set allows her to provide comprehensive care to a wide range of patients. 

In her free time, Dr. Troncoso enjoys spending time with her animals and family, especially her nieces and nephew. Her love for all animals is evident in her willingness to see any patient who comes through the clinic doors, whether they are furry, feathered, scaled, or hooved.
