All Creatures Animal Hospital was established by Dr. Little in 1992. He started with himself and one technician and has built that into a full clinic with 33 employees including two full time associates plus several rotating relief DVM's and the most current technology. All Creatures has been providing 24 hour care seven days a week since 2007.
The clinic sees all species of animals with the exception of poisonous animals and primates. The clinic supports the West Sound Wildlife Shelter by treating injured wildlife.
The purpose of this project was to provide permanent financing for the expansion of the clinic on land already owned. The expansion has nearly tripled the size of the treatment area, including creating a separate operating suite and radiology room. It increased the exam rooms from two to six. This allows the hospital to perform surgical procedures, examine patients and perform non-surgical diagnostics concurrently. The project included the demolition of a residence on the adjacent property, which the borrower also owns. That property provides the new parking lot for the expanded facility.
"Evergreen did a great job on our closing," said Business Manager, Amy Ward.
