Overview

Providing excellent customer service, utilizing first-class technicians and high-quality veterinary medicine and surgery

Walnut Creek Veterinary Clinic opened in 2008 as a partnership between Dr. BJ Ravnsborg and Dr. Joanne Gaines, the owner of Ridgeview Animal Hospital. The location of the hospital was chosen to provide convenient, high-quality veterinary care and services for pet owners in the growing Papillion, LaVista, Ralston, and Bellevue communities. Dr. Ravnsborg also had a connection to the area through his years at Ralston Veterinary Clinic. Walnut Creek was the second hospital to join the Omaha Vets Group, a regional network of clinics in the metro area
