About Vet

NOTE: I am not currently accepting primary care patients on Vetster as I work towards completing a residency in Small Animal Internal Medicine.

I am a Canadian graduate of the Ontario Veterinary College at the University of Guelph, and currently work at a small animal emergency and specialty practice in Ontario. I have seen pets as my own family since I was a kid. I grew up alongside an apricot Toy Poodle and volunteered for cat shelters/local clinics as I worked towards becoming a veterinarian.

My professional interests include internal medicine (such as endocrinology, gastroenterology, nephrology, oncology) and clinical pathology. I obtained my second doctoral degree in October 2024, a PhD degree from the University of Guelph, with a research focus on canine osteosarcoma. I look forward to making a plan together that's best for you and your pet.

So thankful for Dr.Poon who took the time to listen to our concerns and help us understand what was going on with our fur baby Ozzy. He also was able to prescribe us some medication to hopefully help Ozzy until we can get him in to a vet tomorrow. Thank you again Dr. Poon!
