Dr. Madelyn Curll graduated from Texas A&M College of Veterinary Medicine in 1981. Immediately escaping Texas for the beautiful Northwest, she practiced at Lake Forest Park Animal Hospital in Seattle for five years, before moving to Bainbridge Island to work as a full time vet. She migrated west to Port Ludlow in 2000, which brought her to Oak Bay Animal Hospital as our weekend and relief doctor. She maintains a full schedule, also providing veterinary medical and surgical services to practices throughout the Olympic and Kitsap Peninsulas.

Over her long career, Dr. Curll has spent hundreds of hours in seminars covering every topic of medicine, dentistry and surgery. Loving general practice, Dr. Curll's philosphy is well stated by her mentor, Dr. Carl Osborne, "By practicing the Golden Rule, I... will treat patients and their families as I would want to be treated. I will try to give them reason to smile, help them cry, and provide them with a sound basis for hope."
