Dr. Curt Nitschelm
Curt grew up in Klamath Falls, Oregon; and his very first job was "landscaping" (a.k.a. pulling weeds and mowing lawns).
Curt graduated from Oregon State University's college of Veterinary Medicine. He came to work at Redmond Vet in 1983, and has a vast knowledge and interest in all aspects of veterinary medicine; and in all animals..."great and small." Curt says that the clinic's best asset is the outstanding staff and the great client/patient relationships. Outside of working at the vet clinic, Curt enjoys hiking, hunting, fishing, camping, working out, and coaching softball. He is a member of the American Softball Association, as well as at Community Presbyterian Church in Redmond. Members of Curt's family include his wife, 3 daughters, his dog Dexter and Rogue; one rabbit, and his three cats. |

My life began in Newport Beach, California and I spent my formative years growing up in Santa Ana, California. My favorite TV show growing up was Mash . When I was in elementary school, I was pretty sure I'd grow up to be the Six Million Dollar Man (I also liked that show, especially the bigfoot episodes). You could describe my High School Years as the best years of my life (until College at Cal Poly San Luis Obispo and then at Auburn University for Vet School). My favorite holiday is Halloween because I love to dress up and spend the night with my family at Disney's Halloween Party listening to the music from The Nightmare Before Christmas. Musically I play the radio. Ok, I can sort of play the guitar. I have lived in Central Oregon since 1993 but before that I lived in Auburn Alabama. Prior to working at Redmond Veterinary Clinic, my favorite job was a valet. What most excites me about my job at RVC is the opportunity to work with amazing people and share in the lives of my clients and to see the relationship between them and their pets stay healthy. Personally, I am passionate about my family, my relationship with Jesus and serving on the board of Crystal Peaks Youth ranch. When I am not working you can find me swimming, biking and running, along with hiking, sewing outdoor gear and fishing. To date, I am most proud of my marriage to my wife, my children and completing Ironman Arizona Triathlon at age 51.

My life began in 1978 and I spent my formative years growing up in Tumalo. My favorite TV show growing up was Little House on the Prairie. When I was in elementary school, I was pretty sure I’d grow up to be a teacher. You could describe my High School Years as jam packed with so much fun and activity. My favorite holiday is Thanksgiving because all my immediate family (5 siblings and families) are together and we go out Christmas tree hunting together, eat together, black Friday shopping, eat more and are very Thankful. In my pursuit of Veterinary Medicine, I attended Corban University where I played basketball and volleyball and then continued onto Oregon State and Washington State University for vet school. Musically I play the piano. I have lived in Central Oregon since I was born, but have lived in Glennallen, Alaska . Prior to beginning work at Redmond Veterinary Clinic in 2005, my favorite job was being a substitute school teacher in Alaska. My special interests in Veterinary Medicine include all creatures great and small, I work most all of the Pacific Northwest Horse Endurance Rides and I have found a niche working on Micro Pigs. What most excites me about my job at RVC is the variety in animals to work on and the every changing climate of people and pets. Personally, I am passionate about my family and our relationship with Jesus Christ. When I am not working you can find me coaching one of my daughters sports teams, raising lab pups, riding horses, helping with 4-h projects, teaching children's church or having people over for BBQ's. To date, I am most proud of my husband and two daughters and their desire to serve the Lord as we partner together in this crazy thing we call life.
