Dr. Diana Walker, DVM

Owner & Veterinarian

I attended Texas A&M College of Veterinary Medicine and Biomedical Sciences and have been practicing veterinary medicine since 2013.

Two of the biggest parts of my days consist of client communication and patient care. Being able to provide gold standard communication and care to every client that comes through our doors is something that is valued very highly for both me and my team. I take pride in being able to know how to research new techniques for treatments to common problems and being able to educate a pet’s owner on what is going on with their little, and sometimes not so little, bodies and how we can best treat whatever ailment they are facing. I appreciate being able to build rapport with the family members that entrust me with their pets and being able to advocate for those patients every day.

When I am able to enjoy time away from the clinic, I enjoy baking quite a bit. I also enjoy spending time caring for my own animals which include a rottweiler, 2 dachshunds, chickens, and our very own beehives!

Dr. Kristie Ikels, DVM

Veterinarian

I received my veterinary degree from Texas A&M College of Veterinary Medicine and Biomedical Sciences and have been in practice since June of 2021.

Times have changed and pets are not just pets anymore, but a part of the family. We are entrusted with these family members here at Bryan Animal Clinic daily. Being able to provide even a small comfort to their owner is something that I am proud to do for each patient in my care. It can be something as simple as a reassuring word, or knowing that I will have a technician checking in on their pet overnight, but every time I can make a pet parent more confident in the care their pet is receiving it makes my heart smile. Building these kinds of relationships is a big part of the job, and I love being able to do so in this community. Some of my favorite aspects of this field include: Surgery, Ophthalmology, and Large Animal Medicine and I am so looking forward to being able to add to my knowledge bank as I continue on with Bryan Animal Clinic and Veterinary Medicine.

When I am not busy with my own fur babies, I like to travel, spend time with my family, read, and bake!
