Rachel Austin, DVM, CVA, GDVCHM

Dr. Rachel Austin has been practicing veterinary medicine since 2002 when she received her Doctor of Veterinary Medicine from the VA-MD Regional College of Veterinary Medicine at Virginia Tech. Her career is comprised of experience with a corporation as medical director of a five-doctor practice, medical director of an all-cat practice, and experience as an associate in private practices in SE Portland and Lake Oswego. In 2006, she began studying and training in alternative therapies including acupuncture and Chinese herbs. My passion in medicine is to offer an integrative approach to health and wellness that incorporates both Eastern and Western modalities.

I love Portland's food, culture, parks, neighborhoods, farmers markets, and people! When I am not working I enjoy biking, hiking, sewing, cooking, and hanging out with my husband, daughter, dogs, and cats.
