Caring For and Healing Your Pets Since 1994
Located on the corner of Durham Road and Highway 99, Willowbrook Veterinary Hospital was originally founded in 1994 by Dr. Quinn Christiensen, naming it after the Willowbrook Business Center. The hospital was later purchased by Dr. Sarah Dougherty in 2023.
Willowbrook Veterinary Hospital welcomes dogs, cats, and small mammals from Tigard and surrounding areas. Some of our patients come from as far as Newberg, Happy Valley, and southern Washington for the excellent care their pets receive at our veterinary clinic.
Our Mission & Values
Dr. Dougherty brought with her a fresh mission for Willowbrook Veterinary Hospital and the team. At Willowbrook Veterinary Hospital, our mission is to be your trusted partner in pet care, wherever they are in their journey. The team truly takes pride in this mission and loves to present as a cohesive team approach to patient care.

Our Difference
In a world of growing corporate practices, where pets are numbers, we are proud to be privately owned. We actually live in the Tigard, Oregon community. In 1999 we first became AAHA Certified which is a voluntary accreditation that veterinary practices request from the American Animal Hospital Association. This means that our hospital undergoes a rigorous assessment to ensure that we are either meeting or exceeding over 900 standards. This accreditation is something that only 12-15% of hospitals choose to pursue and we are proud that this shows our clients our dedication to the highest standards of veterinary care. 
Our hospital is equipped with state-of-the-art diagnostic and therapeutic equipment, including ultrasound and advanced anesthetic monitoring for all surgical procedures and animal dental care. More importantly, our veterinary team combines decades of training, attention to detail, and genuine care for all of our patients.
We pride ourselves on our focus of ‘people-centered personalized care’, focusing on the well-being of our team so they can be at their best to provide personalized care to your pet. In addition to routine preventative care, we offer a variety of services including general surgery and dentistry, as well as laser therapy. We also partner with board certified specialists including a surgeon and a cardiologist to provide specialized care to your pet in the comfort of our clinic.
