Advanced care for what matters most – helping your pet live a longer and better life.
We understand that seeing your pet experience unusual symptoms or act out of the ordinary can be stressful – especially if you don’t know what’s wrong. Fortunately, our veterinary neurology team is made up of experts in diagnosing and treating diseases of the nervous system, and we’re here to help.
Our commitment is not just to treat illnesses; it’s to enhance the well-being of your pet and be with you every step of the way.
If your pet has a neurological condition, you’ll have an entire neurology team helping to improve your pet’s quality of life so you can get back to what matters most – spending precious moments together.
Your pet will receive unparalleled medical care during their time at the hospital (and they’ll be spoiled with love and attention, too).
Your pet can’t tell us what’s wrong, so we use sophisticated diagnostics and imaging tools to uncover the source of the problem.
Just as no two patients are the same, neither are their treatment plans. Our neurology team has experience with a range of advanced procedures and minimally invasive options to get your pet on the path to wellness, including:
Experience makes all the difference.
Our neurology team is made up of veterinarians, vet technicians and assistants, and support staff with rigorous training and experience in specialty medicine. The team works hand in hand to provide the comprehensive, compassionate care your pet needs and deserves. Because we’re a multidisciplinary hospital, the team can consult the expertise of other specialty departments, too.
One of the many reasons Dr. Teryn Bouché loves neurology is that it combines both surgical and clinical cases. She is particularly interested in spinal surgery and managing patients with inflammatory brain disease.
Dr. Bouché has one cat named Boo who is chaos in feline form. Growing up in the PNW gave her a huge love for the outdoors; she’s a big fan of hiking, camping/backpacking, skiing and generally staying active. She is also an avid reader.
Dr. Jessica Chavera loves veterinary neurology because of the combination and variety of working with both medical and surgical patients. Her areas of interest include inflammatory brain disease, managing patients with seizures, and treating cats with neurological diseases. Additionally, she enjoys communicating with clients and providing education about neurological conditions as well as working with clients who have geriatric dogs.
Dr. Chavera has five cats and a dog. Outside of work, she likes road biking, running and hiking. She also enjoys strumming her guitar and singing.
Dr. Daniel Hicks sees neurology and neurosurgery as a combination of internal medicine and surgery and views every case as unique and an intriguing challenge. He is particularly interested in Wobbler syndrome and surgery including spinal, intracranial and neuro-oncologic.
Co-founder of Heeling Hearts Australian Cattle Dog Rescue, it’s no surprise that Dr. Hicks has four Australian cattle dogs. But they are only a small portion of the farmyard menagerie he takes care of with his wife and three kids. They also have a border collie, donkey, four goats, two cats and multiple ducks. Dr. Hicks’ hobbies include canine agility and obedience performance, livestock herding, hiking with his goats and dogs, grilling and trail running.
