Our Doctors

Dr. Patricia Huff

Dr. Patricia Huff

Dr. Huff graduated from Texas A&M University in 1976, and began practicing veterinary medicine in Oregon in 1980. Over time, she built a successful practice by cultivating the relationship between pets and their family members through education and healthcare. Her medical philosophy is to approach patients individually and treat them as if they were one of her own.

She purchased Hillsboro Veterinary Clinic in 1999 from the original practice owner. She has another practice in Portland, Pet Samaritan Clinic, which she bought in 1982.

Hillsboro Veterinary Clinic saved the lives of my cats because of their training and years of experience. Dr. Huff, in concert with the technical staff, has always met or exceeded my highest expectations.
