Richie Bentley, Veterinary Assistant

Richie Bentley has worked as a technician assistant for 10 years and has been with the hospital since 2015. His love for animals began early—his family dedicated their time to rescuing and rehabilitating pit bulls throughout his childhood. That early exposure to animal care shaped his passion for helping pets live healthier, happier lives. Known for his upbeat attitude and hard work, Richie is an essential member of the veterinary team who takes pride in supporting both the doctors and patients in their daily care.

Outside of work, Richie enjoys practicing martial arts and spending time with his family. He’s an enthusiast of lowriders, hot rods, and classic cars, and is passionate about the Second Amendment. His home is bustling with pets, including six dogs—Sugar, Piggie, Leiah, Duchess, Roxy, and Paisley—along with a cat named Princess Sparkle-Farts, two rabbits, and two leopard geckos. Piggie, his 12-year-old pit bull, holds a special place in his heart as the last of the dogs rescued during his youth.
