Dr. Astrid Reyes

Do you have any nicknames?

My family sometimes called Vali (Valee) but other than that, I get called by either my first or middle name.

In your words, what is your job at Beaverton Pet Clinic? Any special projects or responsibilities?

As a veterinarian, my goal is to work with owners in order to provide the best care possible for their pets. I want to make sure I can answer any questions that they may have about their pet’s health and provide the best treatment recommendations.

Why did you decide to work at Beaverton Pet Clinic?

Everyone who works at Beaverton Pet Clinic is always doing their best to provide the highest standard of care for each patient they see. As soon as I realized that they share the same mindset, I knew I wanted to work here.

Do you have any pets? If so, name/age/description. Any special skills or fun features?

I have a very vocal and demanding 1 year old orange cat named Chester. From him, I learned the true value of pet insurance as he is always looking for trouble by eating anything that seems interesting to him. He’s very cuddly and smart. He easily learned the ‘sit’ command and I am sure he would learn more if I actually tried harder to teach him new commands. I just adopted at 9 week old kitten named Cleo and I hope they become best friends!

Tell us a (or several) little known fact(s) about you!

My native language is Spanish and I come from a US-Mexican border city in Texas. I’m new to the Portland area and I’m so excited to explore the restaurants, attractions, and hiking trails that his area has to offer.
