OPHS adds veterinarian to staff
Published 1:30 am Wednesday, June 8, 2022
Olympic Peninsula Humane Society (OPHS) is proud to announce the addition of Dr. Lindsy Bevins to their full-time staff.
Bevins, who earned her undergraduate degree from the University of Oregon and her doctorate of Veterinary Medicine from Oregon State University, has served at a local veterinarian clinic for the last seven years.
“I am very excited for the opportunity to serve the underprivileged animals in our area and to work with the shelter team that has provided excellent care for them thus far,” Bevins said in an OPHS press release.
Medical or behavioral issues are often reasons for surrender and OPHS has had vet services on staff for the past 12 years, humane society staff noted.
“We consider ourselves very lucky to have Dr. Bevin’s joining OPHS, especially in this time where finding staff is so difficult,” OPHS executive director Luanne Hinkle said.
Bevins succeeds Dr. Suzy Zustiak, who decided to take an offer from a clinic close to her aging parents, OPHS officials said.
A private nonprofit corporation, OPHS is financed primarily by private donations and gifts and is not associated with any national organization. For more than 75 years, the organization has maintained an active presence in Sequim, Port Angeles and surrounding areas.
