Our History
All Creatures Veterinary Clinic, Inc. was established in 1984 by Dr. Joanne Rehn. Dr. Rehn began the practice out of the back of her truck. When she opened at our current location in June 1985, she was the only veterinarian and had two support staff members, a technician, and a receptionist. The practice has grown over the years to employ several veterinarians and more support staff. The clinic building has also grown considerably with the first edition of the reception and examination rooms finished in 1995. The latest addition was completed in 2005 and includes a spacious waiting room and five examination rooms. The parking area has also been expanded and now contains ample room for employees and clients. Over the years, All Creatures has treated various small animals, from dogs and cats to chickens and snakes.
We are active in our community and participate in local efforts. During the extensive Miller’s Reach Wildfire of 1996, we housed as many as 75 animals for people who were displaced from their homes. There were dogs, cats, chickens, and even a llama housed here for a short time. The staff donated many hours to these animals. We also treated several of the burned animals from the fire with great success.
