Veterinarian
Dr. Shannon Findley graduated from Cal Poly San Luis Obispo with a bachelor’s degree in Animal Science, then from the University of California (UC) Davis College of Veterinary Medicine. While at UC Davis, she received specialized training in large animal technical rescue while heading up the university’s Veterinary Emergency Response Team. (Ask her to show you pictures of her helicopter rescue!)
Dr. Findley is committed to equine welfare. Over the past 15 years, she has joined numerous international veterinary volunteer trips to underserved communities. She has a passion for welfare work here at home as well and works with several local rescues and sanctuary organizations. Dr. Findley is also trained in large animal technical rescue and disaster response. Her practice focuses on whole-horse health from conception to horses’ golden years. She enjoys both the challenges of hospitalized cases and seeing horses on-farm.
A transplant originally from Gilroy, California, Dr. Findley fell in love with Central Oregon while completing her internship at BEMC. In her free time, you’ll find her vetting or competing in endurance rides with her Arabians, on the river, or enjoying just about any outdoor activity Central Oregon has to offer.
She joined BEMC in 2019 and became a shareholder in 2019.
