Karalyn Buttrill (formerly Kuchenbecker), Medical Director
Though she is particularly passionate about minimally invasive soft tissue surgery aka laparoscopy (spays, cryptorchid neuters, prophylactic gastropexies, and liver biopsies, oh my!), she also enjoys complicated dental procedures, puzzling internal medicine cases, and alleviating chronic pain in our geriatric friends. As the Medical Director, Dr. Buttrill continues her passion for teaching and maintaining the highest quality of medicine while fostering the human-animal bond.
In her spare time, she enjoys gardening, art, cooking, and hanging out in North Portland with her family. She shares her home with a very smart, mixed-breed dog and a goofy, confident tabby cat.
