About Us

Since 1991, Dr. Mark Wenner and the staff of Cascade Animal Medical Center have worked to build a state-of-the-art veterinary practice that is as known for the compassion of its care as the expertise of its doctors and its modern facility. Today, we are a staple of area pet owners seeking not just the highest quality of care for their pets, but a practice with its roots firmly planted within the communities we serve.
Dr. Wenner is a native of Rochester, Minnesota, and a graduate of John Marshall High School. Growing up, his family brought their pets to Cascade Animal Medical Center and he was impressed even at a young age by the care given his family’s pets. He even credits these early experiences with influencing his decision to become a veterinarian and he truly sees ownership of the Medical Center as a dream come true.
As animal care professionals, our doctors and staff know that the key to providing your pet with a long, healthy and happy life is preventative care. This is why thorough wellness checkups are a standard piece of the care we offer. We also believe that the judicious application of vaccines is an important aspect of keeping your pet healthy and have developed a well-balanced vaccination protocol. We also recommend and provide regular dental care as well as personalized puppy and senior wellness examinations, microchipping, and more.
However, preventative care does not begin and end at our facility. When you come in for an appointment you will receive important home healthcare advice as well as new information and recommendations for the care of your particular type and breed of pet. Our clients will also see how our fully equipped lab and pharmacy complement our wellness care services and are a convenient and cost-effective service for you and your pet.
We also understand that accidents and illness will happen even to the healthiest of pets. This is where Cascade Animal Medical Center really excels. The skill and expertise of our doctors is enhanced by advanced diagnostic imaging equipment, in-house medical testing capabilities, a complete surgical suite, and a wide range of internal medicine expertise and resources.
In all, Cascade Animal Medical Center is committed to providing the highest quality of care for your pet by a staff that is courteous and friendly, in a facility that is comfortable, safe and convenient. We don’t want to be just your veterinarian, but a good friend and neighbor as well.
