About Vet

My name is Chris Costa, CVT. I have been working in Veterinary medicine for 12 years and have been Certified for 4 years. I am originally from NJ but recently moved to Oregon to work at an ER as a lead technician here in Oregon. I am currently a member of NJVTA (New Jersey Veterinary Technicians and Assistants), NAVTA (National Association of Veterinary Technicians and Assistants), VECCS (Veterinary Emergency and Critical Care Society), IAAHPC (International Association of Animal Hospice and Palliative Care), IVAPM (International Veterinary Academy of Pain Management). What I love about my job is improving the human-animal bond and making sure all of my patients are comfortable. My love in Veterinary Medicine is Pain Management and Critical Care. I look forward to meeting you and your pets and helping you along this rewarding journey of pet ownership (or pet parenting).
