Our Team
Meet Our Experienced Veterinary Team!
At Beebout Veterinary Medical Center, we are proud to have a team of passionate and skilled veterinarians dedicated to providing the best care for your pets. Allow us to introduce you to Dr. Brandon Beebout, Dr. Paola Beebout and Dr. Maria Beck.
Dr. Brandon Beebout
Dr. Brandon Beebout attended Ross University School of Medicine and LSU School of Veterinary Medicine. He then completed an internship at Pet Emergency Specialty Center in San Diego, CA in Emergency and Specialty Medicine. He then worked in Denver, CO for two years before settling down in Kearney, NE and working at Hilltop Pet Center. He is an avid sports fan, enjoys golf and analyzing sports stats.
Dr. Beebout’s favorite cases are the ones that involve difficult or challenging diagnoses. These cases require that he be able to see the big picture and put all the information together to accurately diagnose the disease process. These cases often involve unknown toxins, infectious diseases or his personal favorite, endocrine diseases. “When you work on patients that do not talk, you must utilize all your Sherlock Holmes skills to figure out what is going on, so you can get the patient feeling better and back home where they are happiest!” Dr. Brandon says.
He also prides himself in assisting pet owners and pets with end of life care in a compassionate and caring environment. He tries to ensure that this difficult time is as comforting as possible so that the families can focus on their loved one and nothing else.
Dr. Brandon and Dr. Pao Beebout have several pets, including Jazzy and Radio, who frequently make appearances on our Facebook page. They also have a golden retriever, Kiara and four cats named Caryn, Jim, Toast and Johan. Dr. Brandon loves to assist in getting sick or injured pets back at the loving home of their family.
Dr. Paola Beebout
Dr. Paola (Pao) Beebout was born and raised in beautiful Guaynabo, Puerto Rico. Her love for animals started young with her father as her guide into the animal kingdom. She had dogs and a cockatoo named Paco as a kid growing up (she was Paco’s favorite).
After high school, Paola went to Cornell University in Ithaca, NY majoring in Animal Science. She never complained about winter once! After graduation in 2010 from Cornell, she went to Ross University School of Veterinary Medicine on the island of St. Kitts in the West Indies. This is where she met Dr. Brandon Beebout and started the journey to Nebraska.
After Ross University, she completed her clinical studies at LSU in Baton Rouge, graduating veterinary school in June 2014. From there, she went to San Diego to practice while Dr. Brandon was finishing his internship. The last stop before Kearney was 2 years in Denver from 2015-2017. She became an instant fan of the Rocky Mountains, as well as the Broncos and Rockies (Dr. Brandon was quite excited about this!).
Dr. Pao enjoys scenic trails with all of the dogs, sporting events, live music, a good beer, and THE BEACH! She has accepted freshwater lakes as her ocean here in Nebraska (bless her heart!)
When it comes to veterinary medicine, Dr. Pao enjoys all soft tissue surgery, working up challenging cases, developing long-lasting rapport with the clients in the community, and of course, PUPPIES!
Dr. Maria Beck
Maria L. Beck DVM, a graduate of the Ohio State University College of Veterinary Medicine, has been an associate Veterinarian at Hilltop Pet Center for 10 years. She enjoys soft tissue surgery. Maria and her husband, Doug Mead, have a border collie named Penny. She is also employed at Ravenna Vet Center where she helps both small and large animals. Dr. Beck enjoys using her skills and experience to ensure that all the patients she sees are happy and healthy. She enjoys foreign body surgeries and has removed everything from drinking straws to bladder stones from her patients. She loves to assist owners to be the best advocate for their pet they can possibly be.
In her free time, Dr. Beck has been the Veterinarian to examine the pets for the cat and dog show at the Buffalo County Fair for several years. She also volunteers at the Nebraska State Fair in the Birthing Pavilion. She enjoys teaching fairgoers about the birthing process and food animal industries. As a mixed animal practitioner, she has a unique understanding of both large animal and small animal care.
