Kate Peplin, DVM

Dr. Kate Peplin was raised in Silverton, Oregon. After marrying a Redmond local, her family made the move to Central Oregon. She grew up in 4H and FFA with plenty of large animal experience but fell in love with small animal medicine after years spent working in shelter medicine. She received her bachelor's degree in Animal Science from Oregon State University and attended OSU's Carlson College of Veterinary Medicine, graduating in 2023.

Dr. Peplin's special interests within the field of veterinary medicine are preventative medicine, community outreach and education, feline medicine, and small animal soft tissue surgery. In her free time, she loves hiking, kayaking, and spending quality time with family and friends. Dr. Peplin spends most of her off time with her golden retriever, Amber (pictured), and her sweet family cat, Sylvester.
