  • Dr.
    Aerin Truskey
    DVM

    Dr. Truskey joined Mountain View Veterinary Hospital in June of 2017. She came to us directly from the veterinary program at Washington State University and has continued her passion to learn everything she can about veterinary medicine. Being the youngest of our doctor team, Dr. Truskey brings fresh perspectives and new age insight to the table. She is wonderful at remaining calm under pressure and often consults the other doctors to make sure that we have the best idea of what needs to be done for treatment. When she was younger, her mom had an interest in the veterinary field. That, coupled with her deep love for animals, made it a possibility for her in terms of a career option. In her free time, Dr. Truskey enjoys spending time outdoors, reading, and going to concerts. She is owned by two cats; Norman and Corina.

    Dr. Vogt has been a member of Mountain View Veterinary Hospital since May of 2017.

Dr. Vogt brings years of knowledge with her and always does her job with a smile. She is consistently helping the other doctors with their more complex cases and routinely asks for multiple opinions so she can ensure the best possible care for our patients. In her spare time, she enjoys reading novels, playing board games, and crocheting. She has 3 wonderful dogs (Morgan, Barkley, and Nikki) as well as 3 kitties: Harry, Koda, and Idgie.

  • Dr. Karen Hook
    DVM

    Dr. Hook grew up in small towns in Montana and Eastern Washington. She was very active in 4-H, FBLA, hiking, camping, horseback riding and reading.  She knew from a young age that she wanted to be a veterinarian because it appealed to many facets of her personality; the problem solving of medicine, the hands on skills needed for surgery and a love of spending time with people who love animals. After a lot of volunteer work in a local veterinary hospital and many other animal related volunteer jobs, Dr. Hook graduated from the Washington State University College of Veterinary Medicine in 1990. She has worked in a number of practices in Washington and Oregon. Dr. Hook practiced for 5 years in a small animal hospital in north Seattle where she developed a love for internal medicine and soft tissue surgery. Dr Hook moved to Lacey and joined Mountain View Veterinary Hospital in 2001.  She loves to quilt and is an active kayaker, she even did a 100 mile trip on the Washington coast from Neah Bay to Klaloch and survived!  Her current pet family includes her cat Mischief, and her two dogs, Mina, and Max.
