Avian & Exotic Vet Care (Portland)
Dedicated Exotic Medical Care in Portland, Oregon
Clinic Overview & Expertise
As Oregon's largest exclusive exotic pet practice, this Portland-based powerhouse is a sanctuary for non-traditional species. They focus solely on exotic medicine, ensuring that every technician and doctor is an expert in the nuanced physiology of birds, reptiles, and small mammals. Their facility is strictly 'predator-free,' meaning the smells and sounds of cats and dogs are non-existent, which is critical for minimizing the fatal stress responses in prey animals like rabbits and parrots. They are one of the few clinics in the Pacific Northwest with three board-certified Avian Specialists and two Exotic Companion Mammal Specialists on staff. Beyond standard medicine, they offer a specialized fish resource department and a dedicated shop for vet-recommended diets, ensuring that the 'preventative' side of exotic care is just as robust as their surgical capabilities.
Core Specializations
Why Exotic Animales Trusts This Clinic

✅ Pro-Active Diagnostics
This facility is known for not just treating symptoms, but using bloodwork and imaging to find the root cause in exotic species.
✅ Exotic-Only Recovery
Reduced stress environments where sensitive animals like rabbits or birds aren't housed next to barking dogs.
