Artificial insemination

Fresh, chilled, and frozen semen, including TCI.

Pregnancy management

Ultrasound monitoring from planning to whelping.

Planned C-sections

Care for every species

In addition to caring for dogs and cats, Dr. Curl enjoys treating birds, rabbits, reptiles, pocket pets, and other exotic species. She believes every pet deserves access to quality veterinary care, regardless of species.

The center also offers mixed animal services for small ruminants, backyard poultry, and basic herd health — practical care for North Austin’s small farms and backyard flocks.

Our philosophy

Dr. Curl founded Research Blvd. Veterinary Center with the vision of creating a welcoming, full-service veterinary hospital where clients can receive exceptional care in one convenient location. Her philosophy centers on building lasting relationships with families through honest communication, thorough diagnostics, individualized treatment plans, and a commitment to practicing medicine as she would for her own pets.

When she isn’t caring for patients, Dr. Curl enjoys spending time with her husband and their many animals, fishing along the Texas coast, traveling, and continually expanding her knowledge through advanced continuing education.

Dr. Curl looks forward to welcoming you and your pets to the Research Blvd. Veterinary Center family.
