Dr. Colin Miller

DVM, Chief of Staff

A native of Woodinville, Dr. Colin Miller has longstanding ties to this community, and to Cottage Lake Veterinary Hospital. His childhood pets were patients here in the 1990s. Dr. Miller began his journey into veterinary medicine by shadowing the Drs. Quindt and working as a receptionist at CLVH from 2012 to 2013.
Dr. Miller graduated from Whitman College in Walla Walla, and spent two years afterward in the Peace Corps in Nicaragua. While serving abroad he adopted and brought back to the U.S. his beloved cat Nico.

He attended veterinary school at Washington State University, graduating in 2018. In 2022, Dr. Miller was graciously given the opportunity to buy in as a partner in the practice and to carry on Dr. Quindt’s role as Chief of Staff. Dr. Miller couldn’t be happier to have come full circle back to Woodinville and his
hometown veterinary practice, and to carry on its legacy as an independent, locally-owned clinic where state-of-the art medicine is practiced. He is pictured here with his dog Wally.
