Joining the HPACC family in July of 2026! Claire Hood, DVM comes to HPACC after attending vet school at Colorado State University. She worked in wildlife conservation before going to vet school and decided to become a veterinarian after seeing the impact vets had in small rural communities where she worked. She loves surgery and working with clients to help their pets be their healthiest and happiest. Outside of work, you can find her cooking, reading, doing yoga, or walking her dog (Archie boy) with her husband.
