Dr. Kathleen E. Hanifen had been a client of Dr. Scott’s for almost 20 years when she obtained her DVM from Oregon State University. As a client, she really liked the personal attention that a smaller clinic is able to provide and wanted to practice the same kind of veterinary medicine. Dr. Hanifen purchased the clinic in 2011 after Dr. Scott retired. Her interests include small animal medicine and surgery and equine medicine [citation].
