About Magic Valley Veterinary Hospital
The decision to choose the right veterinarian for your pet can be hard to make. You consider the cleanliness of the location, the amount of money you will be investing in each visit, and most importantly, the staff. At Magic Valley Veterinary Hospital, we make this decision easy for you by providing comprehensive care for your dogs, cats, rabbits, ferrets, and pocket pets.
Our full service animal hospital takes pride in our doctors. Dr. Laura Schultz, Dr. Paula Cox, Dr. Hannah Brown, Dr. Nathan Debner, and Dr. Jennifer Glass are here to take care of your animals with expertise and compassion.
Our Founder
Dr. Connie Rippel
Dr. Connie Rippel founded Magic Valley Veterinary Hospital in March 1992. She built her dream from the ground up and has left a legacy in her wake.
She knew she wanted to be a veterinarian from a very early age, and her dream grew. She started in the field as a kennel person for local veterinarians and at the Sedgwick County Zoo in Wichita, Kansas.
Dr. Rippel moved to Twin Falls right out of college and began to set down roots. In her 30+ years of veterinary medicine, she helped nurture new veterinarians, many vet techs, vet assistants, and kennel people. She always supported her staff’s dreams and made sure their schedules were fluid to accommodate schooling. She celebrated all the wins with each employee. She truly is a beautiful example for everyone at MVVH.
In March 2025, Dr. Rippel retired so she could spend well-deserved time with her family, pets, and friends.
