24 Hour Emergency Vet Hospital and Urgent Pet Care in Redmond, Washington
Dr. Melanie Bowden
Medical Director
Washington State University College of Veterinary Medicine
Dr. Bowden worked in GP and ER in the first 3 years of her career before deciding ER was her favorite flavor of veterinary medicine! She then took a position at a multispecialty clinic and worked under a 5-criticalist team for nearly two years before joining VEG in 2021. She loves medical emergencies and coaching other doctors in procedures and surgery. Her favorite part about VEG is keeping people and pets together, and firmly believes that pets do best and heal faster when their family is nearby. Dr. Bowden lives with her partner, 3 dogs, and a cat. She loves outdoor adventures, including backcountry skiing and mountaineering.
