Dr. Emily, DVM

Hi, I’m Dr. Emily Redden Rivera! I have been practicing veterinary medicine for the past 16 years. I studied veterinary medicine at Oklahoma State University College of Veterinary Medicine. I pride myself in the patients that instantly bond with me and fill my heart with joy. Outside of the hospital, I like to spend time with my family, watching movies, and working on my flower bed.

Dr. Brooke Vaughn, DVM

Bio Coming Soon.

Zander, Receptionist

I have been working at Council for the past six months! I pride myself on my compassion & care for the patients that walk through our doors. When I’m not at work, I love drawing, painting, writing a video game, and friendship.

Shane, Vet Technician

I am dedicated and committed to this field, as it has become a life passion of mine. I continuously strive to provide the best medical care I can to the patients I see. I am constantly open to learning and growing, as each day, I would like to come in more robust and knowledgeable than the day before. I am currently working on obtaining my accreditation / licensing as a technician, so I spend a lot of time studying. I like to hike and exercise a lot. I produce my music, play several instruments, and love to rap. Camping is my favorite idea for a vacation.

Aurora, Kennel Tech

I pride myself on providing a comfortable and calm environment for patients. I enjoy hiking, bike riding, drawing, writing, and reading in my free time.

Kim, Veterinary Assistant

I love animals. I believe everyone deserves a good quality of life, so taking care of them is second nature to me. Outside the practice, I prioritize my time with my pets and partner. I am always down for trying new food and exploring new hobbies. Don’t get me wrong, though; I also love my sleep!

Austin, Technician

I treat each patient as of they are my own. I strive to ensure they get the same quality of care that I hope to receive for my fur babies. The patients that instantly bond with me fill my heart with joy. Outside caring for our patients, I enjoy binge-watching football from Saturday to Sunday. Go pokes! When I am feeling creative, I like to design tattoos for others.

Brandy, Practice Manager and Technician

I pride myself in my compassionate care, providing a positive experience for both the client and the patients that come to us. In my free time, I love hiking, taking my kids to sports, exploring new places, reading, and gardening.

Lindsey, Groomer

I have been working in the veterinary industry for the last 13 years. I have a talent for working with challenging pets. I am usually the only groomer able to groom pets who have been kicked out of other salons. In my free time, I enjoy playing disc golf. I am also the vice president of my local women’s league!
