Staff Veterinarian
DVM
Dr. Clifton Hashimoto graduated from the College of Veterinary Medicine at Texas A&M University in 1997. After graduating from veterinary school with full honors, Dr. Hashimoto went to work in Hawaii. Initially intending to stay for only one or two years, his stay extended to 18 years. During that time, he worked at two very busy full-service 24-hour practices, caring for everything from puppy and kitten wellness exams, to cancer patients, to critical medical and trauma emergency and hospitalization cases, as well as exotics and non-traditional pet species. Dr. Hashimoto also served on the board of the Hawaii Veterinary Medical Association for six years, two years as its President. In 2015, Dr. Hashimoto moved to Vancouver to live in the beauty of the Pacific Northwest with his wife and daughter. In addition to spending his spare time being a full-time father and husband, he loves to be outdoors reaping the bounty Washington has to offer—gardening, fruit picking, fishing, and clamming. He is also a fanatical rock climber.
