Dr. Shelagh Hislop has been working with us since 1992 after her graduation from the Western College of Veterinary Medicine in Saskatoon. She is originally from Calgary, Alberta. Her love for animals, people, and science are what drew her to veterinary medicine as a career. Shelagh is seeing patients at the clinic 2-3 days/week, while raising her kids (and an everchanging array of pets at home).
Her special interest areas are dentistry and soft tissue surgery. She enjoys running, and veggie gardening. Jeff originates from the Victoria area and was glad to return to the Island from his veterinary training in Saskatoon where he worked 2 summers in the department of radiology. We're sure he was born with veterinary medicine in his genes because both of his parents were veterinarians too!

Vaccinations
Report
Rabies vaccination is highly recommended. In this way, it is considered a "core vaccine". It should be given at around 16 weeks of age, then a booster given in a year, then every 3 years thereafter. DAP stands for distemper, adenovirus & parvo virus. This core (recommended) vaccine combination should be given at 8 weeks, 12 weeks of age, and another at 16 weeks.
