Balance Veterinary Care

Holistic Veterinary Care for Dogs & Cats

Dr. Teri Sue’s lifelong passion for animals began in her childhood in New Jersey, where she watched her mother rescue wild animals and care for a variety of pets. Her love of horses grew through her school years, leading her to train and compete in three-day eventing. This passion took her to a private college in Virginia, where she studied horsemanship and business, before transferring to Old Dominion University to complete her biology degree in 1991. Her professional journey began at a veterinary hospital in South Carolina. Seeing a need in her community, she established a non-profit wildlife rehabilitation organization, a project that inspired her to pursue veterinary medicine. After moving to Oregon in 1995, she worked at the Corvallis Humane Society for over two years before attending Oregon State University, where she earned her DVM in 2001. While working in a conventional clinic, Dr. Wright began questioning traditional approaches to health care, realizing that preventing disease and sustaining wellness required deeper understanding. After leaving her clinic in 2005 to care for her newborn son with special needs, she explored nutrition, integrative medicine, and holistic therapies. The results transformed both her health and her son’s development and shaped her approach to veterinary practice. Today, Dr. Teri Sue continues studying nutrition, herbal medicine, and holistic modalities. She provides in-home care and is expanding her clinic to include radiology, surgery, and dentistry
