Compassionate veterinary care since 1973.
Valley Veterinary Clinic was established in 1973 as a two doctor mixed animal veterinary hospital with the guiding principle to provide families with the very best in veterinary resources for all of their animals, large or small. For the past 40 years, Valley Veterinary Clinic has remained at the forefront of the veterinary community by providing highly skilled doctors with the latest medical equipment, offering a wide array of business hours and emergency after hours, and continuing to provide clients with affordable, quality, veterinary care. We believe that all clients should have dependable and affordable access to veterinary care for their animals.
Meet Our Doctors

Dr. Dustin Galbraith
Dr. Galbraith's Bio
Dr. Dustin Galbraith has worked at the clinic for 10 years; he and his wife purchased the clinic from the late Dr. Plummer in 2018. Dr. Dustin is most proud of his veterinary degree from OSU and the family he has created. He is always happy at work to better educate clients on misconceptions, teach them about new and advancing medicine, and make sure they leave understanding the information we have given them about their pets. Dr. Dustin’s favorite animals to see are horses. He very much enjoys his time at home building new things, and getting to explore places he has previously never been to. Dr. Dustin, behind the scenes, has been the star of the show with our remodel plans, which have upgraded the clinic tremendously and have plans to continue the upgrades. Fun fact, if he could have the opportunity to go to space, he would.

Dr. Michelle Galbraith
Dr. Galbraith's Bio
Dr. Michelle Galbraith has been with Valley Veterinary Clinic since 2012. She and her husband purchased the clinic in 2018. Dr. Michelle’s greatest accomplishments are her 3 girls, owning a business and the staff that she has helped to build and their happiness within the clinic. Her favorite type of patient to see are cats. One of Dr. Michelle’s greatest talents is the skill set she has mastered when it comes to performing spay surgeries or surgies in general. She wishes she could live at Disney and travel to all of the Disney parks around the world. Her favorite Disney character is Tiana for her work ethic to reach her dreams and her ability to be a single, successful woman. Michelle is a multitasker and can take on many roles during her day at the clinic. But one thing she always needs is her morning coffee.

Dr. Gretchen Glose
Dr. Glose's Bio
Dr. Gretchen Glose has been at the clinic since 2013. She grew up in Wisconsin and graduated from the University of Wisconsin School of Veterinary Medicine. She lived in Utah before making her way to Oregon. Her favorite part of work is getting to banter with Kelley throughout her days. If we had a talent show, she would surprise everyone with her secret ninja skills. The thing is, we all have seemed to miss them in our years of working with Gretchen. She enjoys reading, creating arts and crafts for the clinic, and riding her horse. Gretchen has several animals at home, including two dogs, one cat, two chickens, one horse, and one hermit crab. Gretchen would be the happiest with a lifetime supply of potatoes.

Dr. McNair's Bio

Dr. Lynn Taylor
Dr. Taylor's Bio
Dr. Lynn Taylor has been at the clinic since 1988, working with our original owner, Julie, after selling her own practice and moving to the area. Her husband also has a Doctorate in Veterinary Medicine but currently does not practice. Lynn has two adult sons and currently one sweet grandbaby and is proud of the foreign exchange students she has housed throughout the years. One item she could never live without is specifically dark chocolate. One of her proudest accomplishments is her quilts and her painted mural on the shed outside of her home. Her favorite part about her job is spaying dogs and cats. In another life, Lynn believes she was a librarian. Three words Lynn uses to describe herself are; spiritual, loyal, and hungry. Having an endless supply of anything in the world, Lynn would choose to have marionberries.

Dr. Brendan Doiron
Dr. Doiron's Bio
Dr. Brendan Doiron has worked at the clinic for almost five years after graduating from Carlson College of Veterinary Medicine in Corvallis, OR. Brendan currently has one cat, and once he has more time I’m sure a Brittany is in his future. Brendan grew up in California, moved here for school, and we managed to keep him around by tempting him with our mixed practice adventures. When not at work he is happiest playing Magic the Gathering or being a very creative dungeon master in Dungeons and Dragons with other staff members. His favorite place to go is Mox Boarding house in Portland. Brendan brings a high level of attention to detail to all of his cases. He is particularly talented with working up complicated cases and relaying information to owners. Brendan has a very calm demeanor in high stress situations that comforts clients and patients alike. Three words to describe Brendan are thoughtful, patient, and caring. He enjoys listening to alternative rock, but is more of a podcast junkie.
