Meet the Veterinary Team

Dr. Tetyana Gephart
Senior Veterinarian
Dr. Tetyana Gephart was born and raised in Ukraine. She graduated from the National Agricultural University of Ukraine in 1998 as a Doctor of Veterinary Medicine (DVM). Dr. Gephart worked as a veterinarian in her hometown for several years, before moving to the United States. In 2007 she finished all required steps, including a clinical year at the University of Florida, to receive her licensure as a DVM in the US. Dr. Gephart practiced in Florida until relocating to Idaho in 2010, where she worked for the Idaho Humane Society (IHS) Medical Center for the past 12 years.
In 2018 – 2019, Dr. Gephart had a very rewarding opportunity to share her knowledge and surgical expertise as an Adjunct Professor to Washington State University 4th year veterinary students completing their shelter medicine rotation at IHS.
In 2023, Dr. Gephart joined the MCPAWS family at the MCPAWS Veterinary Hospital as a full-time staff veterinarian! She enjoys spending time educating clients and providing compassionate care to their furry family members.
Dr. Gephart shares her home with her husband Paul, son Nikolas, and two dogs – Watson and Crosby. In her free time, she enjoys hiking, paddle boarding, swimming, and biking. She is very excited to join the MCPAWS family and looks forward to seeing you at your next veterinary appointment!

Dr. Audrey Atchley
Veterinarian
Dr. Audrey Atchley always dreamed of being a veterinarian and she developed a deep appreciation for animals and science early on. She earned her undergraduate degree in Biology from Brigham Young University in 2020 before pursuing her Doctor of Veterinary Medicine (DVM) at the University of California – Davis, graduating in 2024. During her time in school, she participated in research projects, access to care programs, and spay/neuter clinics.
Dr. Atchley began her career in a small animal practice in downtown Sacramento, California, but her heart has always been drawn to Idaho. Having spent many summers in McCall, she made the exciting decision to call it home in 2025 and join the team at MCPAWS. She has a special interest in surgery, infectious diseases, and shelter medicine and is passionate about providing compassionate, individualized care for every patient. She looks forward to building lasting relationships with both pets and their people in this incredible community.
Outside of the clinic, Dr. Atchley enjoys exploring the outdoors, whether hiking to alpine lakes for a day of fishing, hitting the slopes in winter, or waterskiing in the summer. At home, she shares her life with her cat – Opal, a few reptiles, and frequent visits from her family’s dog – Huckleberry.

Dr. Steve & Dr. Nancy Basinger
Veterinarians
Dr. Steve and Dr. Nancy Basinger served as shelter veterinarians for years prior to retirement. These two were kind enough to come out of retirement to help us while we continue our search for a more permanent veterinarian. They are now accepting appointments!
