About Us

Dr. Eddy Suchy graduated from Oregon State University College of Veterinary Medicine in 2012 and joined the WVAH team in 2014 at the original Salem location. Her passion, leadership, and commitment to high-quality medicine were instrumental in opening the Gladstone clinic in 2018. In 2021, Dr. Suchy purchased WVAH of Gladstone and in 2024 the Clackamas location was opened, expanding the WVAH family to two thriving clinics.

WVAH has always been a true family business. Almost 30 years ago, the original hospital group was founded by a husband-and-wife veterinary team — two pillars of their community — and we are honored to continue the tradition of family-led, community-focused care. Many of our team members have been part of the WVAH family for more than a decade, and we are deeply committed to maintaining a workplace that is warm, supportive, and welcoming. We believe that when our staff feel valued, respected, and at home, our clients and patients feel it too.

Across both WVAH Gladstone and Clackamas locations, our mission is simple: to make exceptional, modern veterinary medicine accessible to everyone.  We strive to deliver this care with compassion and integrity. We want every client to feel heard and appreciated, and every pet to receive individualized, thoughtful care. 

At Willamette Valley Animal Hospital, we are honored to serve the pets and people of Gladstone and Clackamas, and we look forward to continuing the legacy of a true family practice for years to come.
