Bend Spay Neuter Clinic
"Bend Spay Neuter welcomes back Dr. Byron Maas to the project as Medical Director and surgeon. Byron left private practice in 2005 to establish the Bend Spay and Neuter Project with Sara Dice after many late nights and weekends, performing surgeries and volunteering to help the growing feral cat population in Central Oregon. After hundreds of sterilization procedures it was apparent that the Bend Spay and Neuter clinic was needed. He has been practicing for nearly 20 years in companion animal medicine and surgery. Previously dubbed the “King of Spays” (Animal Affairs Journal 2006) Byron is passionate about population control in companion animals worldwide. He started the surgical practice at the Humane Society of Central Oregon and the mobile SNIP clinic serving the greater Central Oregon region, volunteered a year in the South Pacific Island Nation of the Cook Islands commencing the Ester Honey Foundation Clinic in Rarotonga and volunteers regularly in developing nations to provide veterinary care. Dr. Maas owns Bend Veterinary Clinic providing small companion animal care for the High Desert Museum and the animals at Chimps Inc. in Tumalo. He is a huge asset to our clinic and our community." *quote from Bend Spay Neuter website

"We made history here in the Cook Islands with the introduction of the gas anesthesia machine. It is the first time a device of this type has been used on animals in Rarotonga and certainly any of the developing countries of the Pacific... So we can be proud of providing the island people with the country's only domestic animal facility as well as the safest anesthetic they have ever seen."
