The Veterinary Referral Center of Central Oregon prides itself on providing the highest level of care possible and is continuing that dedication with the opening of a new 27,000-square-foot state-of-the-art hospital. The new facility will allow VRCCO to offer cutting-edge services with the only animal-dedicated MRI in the area, a bone and joint center along with a food truck court and beer garden open to the public.

Ground was broken in the summer of 2022 with the hospital expected to open late in 2023. VRCCO will continue to operate out of its original location on 1820 Monterey Pines in Bend until the new hospital is open and then will have two locations to better serve the Pacific Northwest Community.

As the weather has warmed, the construction crew has taken advantage. The front of the building is taking shape, the concrete is down on the second floor and the HVAC is almost fully installed.

Sun, snow, rain, or mud the construction crew wasn’t going to let the elements derail the plans to get the shape of the hospital in place.

Groundbreaking

Four years after opening the Veterinary Referral Center of Central Oregon on the west side of Bend, the company broke ground on a 27,000-square-foot state-of-the-art facility on the east side of town. Not only is the hospital going to provide human-level care it will provide heroes with onsite childcare and a food truck court and beer garden for the entire community to enjoy.
