Dr. Bayliff
Dr. Bayliff was born in Wichita, but grew up in Viola, KS. He started college chasing a Mechanical Engineering degree, but decided he needed to do more, and found his way to Veterinary Medicine! (We are so happy this happened!) Dr. B worked at ECVH as a Kennel Tech while obtaining his Biology degree at Wichita State. From there, he went to K-State to become a Doctor of Veterinary Medicine and graduated in 2000. Dr. Bayliff worked in Arkansas for a bit after graduation, but he knew he needed to move his family home to the Wichita Area. So, he came back to Wichita and purchased ECVH in 2005!
Dr. B is married to his wife, Angie, and together they have 4 boys, 2 pups, and 2 kitties. When he gets a little free time (not very often!), he loves spending time with his wife and kids, and occasionally working on cars.

Gamora
Gamora was picked up from the animal shelter when she was VERY pregnant and VERY naked! She lived with Aleigh for quite some time, where she had her babies and raised them to be little Guardians of the Galaxy. Once they were grown, it was time for Gamama to find her forever home. Turns out her ship was headed straight to the ECVH Galaxy! She landed gracefully and has since taken over as our ruler.

Buddy Boy
Buddy is our longest ECVH employee! He was found on the doorstep in 2004 as a tiny kitten in a Bud Light box. He was barely 2 pounds and needed lots of care. It was clear he was supposed to stay, and little Bud Light became the clinic kitty! We have had a few other kitties join us over the years, but Buddy has always been our “mascot.” He’s an old man now, so he lounges in the back on one of his countless beds and comes “meowing” around for every meal like clockwork! His sweet little face is the highlight of our days.
