Dr. Tyler Lamb has been at River Road since 2019, but if he seems familiar, you’re right: His first job mowing lawns as a teenager was right here at River Road Animal Hospital. He attended Washington State University for his undergraduate and veterinary degrees (Go Cougs!) and worked at other clinics in Washington before coming home to Puyallup.

Dr. Tyler looks forward to dong everything he can to keep your creatures happy and healthy.
