Randy Parker , DVM

  A native of Las Cruces, NM, Dr. Parker completed his veterinary training at Tufts University in Boston, MA. While at Tufts, his major focus was the diagnosis and treatment of equine diseases, injuries and reproduction. After graduation in 1989, he furthered his veterinary education by completing an internship in large animal medicine and surgery at the Atlantic Veterinary College on Prince Edward Island, Canada. Dr. Parker finished his internship as one of the top three in his class.
  Dr. Parker has been practicing in the Colorado Springs area for the past 19 years and is the owner of Range View Equine Associates. In that time he has developed a vast practical knowledge of veterinary medicine in our area. He enjoys working on lamenesses, performing equine power dentistry, treating major horse injuries, doing surgery and facilitating equine reproductive performance. He started the practice by working for several years by himself out of his truck and home and had grown the practice into a multi-doctor clinic. Dr. Parker's goals have changed over the years. He now realizes that hiring veterinarians who do not have a vested interest in the practice is not good for his clients or his business. Dr. Parker has re-evaluated his clinic design and decided that consistency is the best advantage for his clients as well as his business. When you call Range View Equine Associates, you will always be making an appointment with Dr. Parker, himself. No more wondering who will show up for the appointment and what qualifications and vested interest that doctor may have. Dr. Parker accepts the challenges of practice ownership and strives to make Range View Equine Associates one of the most prestigious practices in the state.

When away from work, Dr. Parker spends most of his time worrying about the practice! When he does have some free time, he likes to spend it with his wife, Jill, daughter Paige, and his two sons, Cole Parker and Sam and his step-son Cole Kadrie. Dr. Parker has turned into an avid team roper. He seldom falls off his horse anymore and catches more times than he misses, usually. He does need a heeler that can "make him look good."

Dr. Parker is very proud of his practice and hopes everyone keeps Range View Equine Associates in mind for all their horse care needs.
