Location & Areas We Serve
History
In 1943, Dr. Bert Potts started practicing from this location as the Potts Veterinary Service. In 1952, Dr. Arnold Slater joined Dr. Potts. Dr. John Goforth and Dr. Slater purchased the veterinary facilities from Dr. Potts in 1954 and named it the Deschutes Animal Clinic. Dr. Robert Cleveland joined the practice in 1958, with Dr. Robert Sand following in 1960, and Dr. Robert Collins in 1966.<br/><br/>The three current partners: Dr. John Smith started with Deschutes in 1969, Dr. John Flory began in 1986 and Dr. Virginia Balius joined the clinic in 1988. Additional associate doctors: Dr. Kristin Ripka joined the clinic in 2009 and Dr. Carol Hoaglund joined in 2014.<br/><br/>The clinic has been rebuilt and added onto in several additions to attain its current status of over 8,000 square feet under one roof. Prior to 1958 only a veterinary garage existed on this site. In 1958 the section of the clinic that is now the barn was built. The waiting room, reception area, pharmacy, and surgery rooms were added in 1968. Finally, in 1975, the south side of the current clinic was built; adding the business offices, break room, lab, wards, and supply room.
