My goal at the time was to find a way to practice Veterinary Medicine, as well as raise a very young family. Over the last five years GBMVS has grown into a full time venture that provides Veterinary care to over 1200 clients, which is about 2000 four legged patients, all spread over the countryside from Wasaga Beach to Honey Harbour. We have grown to a team of 4 staff members.I love exploring the beautiful area we live in, and getting to see all the special places that our clients and patients call home! I have wanted to be a veterinarian for as long as I can remember, and to make that happen I attended the University of Guelph. Before graduating with my Doctor of Veterinary Medicine in 1996, I received my Honors Bachelor of Science in Toxicology. Upon graduation from the Ontario Veterinary College, I worked in a busy mixed animal practice where I gained a lot of 'real world' experiences in medicine and surgery of both small and large animal practice.From there I spent the next eight years focused on small animal medicine and surgery, with special interests in dermatology, internal medicine, and dentistry.
