Your Healthcare Team
Hannah, Clinic Manager
My journey with Pandosy Village Vet started a little more than 8 years ago (wow..time flies!) I’ve been fortunate enough to “grow-up" with the clinic. From helping at the front desk, nursing patients in the back, assisting in acupuncture appointments to now being called the Clinic Manager. I guess you could say I've done a little bit of everything!
I graduated from my Veterinary Hospital Assistant course in 2011 in Kelowna, BC. Since then I’ve been given the opportunity to further expand my knowledge by taking the Advanced Natural Animal Nutrition online course through the Centre for Integrative Veterinary Therapies, as well as the Traditional Chinese Veterinary Medicine for Technicians course at the Chi Institute. These days I'm usually running around the clinic doing "managerial" duties, but I do still enjoy a good chat about nutrition and holistic care options!
My golden oldie boy has since passed (Marles Barkley - I miss him dearly!) who is the cutie in some of the photos you still see around the clinic. These days my fur family consists of my two rescues, Auggie the dog & Jorge the cat! Who are both their own versions of medical mysteries. (But hey, I work at a vet clinic so.. it makes sense?!) When I’m not busy at work I like to spend my free time exploring the beautiful Okanagan with friends (in all seasons), enjoying the lovely little patios and city life of downtown Kelowna - and having lazy Sunday afternoons with my little fur-gremlins watching Netflix, listening to podcasts or reading a good book!
Christine, Clinical Team Leader
As a child, I always found myself drawn to animals in a special way. After working in human healthcare and dog daycares for many years, I found my place with the Pandosy Vet family in 2016 and have been working here ever since. In the clinic, you'll find me assisting in surgical prep, keeping things tidy, and preforming our therapeutic laser treatments. I have a special interest in all things holistically minded and love to assist our doctors in finding the right treatment for your pets. In my spare time, I love to travel, hike, and spend time with my tiny rescue chihuahua, Milo.
Ashley, Registered Veterinary Technician
Originally from White Rock, I started in the veterinary field in 2010 and became a Registered Veterinary Technician in 2014. On the coast I worked in a few small animal practices as well as emergency clinics. Two years ago my husband and I moved to Kelowna and I joined the Pandosy team in March 2019. I have a special interest in veterinary dentistry and am very passionate about our surgical cases. When not working I love hiking, camping, and off-roading with our Indian street dog, Rhee, and our Silken Windhound, Nelson. When I’m at home, you can find me cuddling the cats, Freya and Theodore, or curled up with a good book.
Tia, Veterinary Assistant
Animals of all kinds have always been a huge part of my life, so when the opportunity arose to combine my love for pets, interest in medicine, and passion for photography at Pandosy Vet, I couldn’t see myself doing anything else! Since 2019 I’ve been behind the scenes at our clinic, snuggling surgical patients, assisting the doctors, talking to new puppy parents, and most recently- creating our social media content! I have a special interest in behaviour training, and love to see puppy parents succeed in raising their new best friend!
Outside of the clinic, I can be found competing in disc competitions with my australian shepherd Juniper, hiking with my duck toller Tadpole, or pursuing my love for pet photography!
Anna, Registered Veterinary Technician
I spent my childhood in Germany and was fortunate enough to spend a lot of time on my grandparents’ farm surrounded by many different animals. I knew very early on that i wanted to spend her life caring for all things furry, feathery, scaly and everything in between. I graduated from Douglas College in 2014 and has been working as a Registered Veterinary Technician ever since.
After graduation I decided to split my time between Germany and Canada and was able to experience a wide range of veterinary practices working in the two countries.Having settled in Kelowna now, I enjoy being outdoors, hiking and exploring the Okanagan with my terrier mix Kosmo.
Meghan, Front Desk
Cass, Registered Veterinary Technician
Kelowna has been my home since before I can remember, but I headed to the beautiful city of Kamloops to complete my RVT schooling at Thompson Rivers University, and graduated in 2020 to come right back here! I have worked in the vet industry for many years, but recently joined the Pandosy family to learn more about integrative medicines after seeing my perfect kitty Franny benefit immensely from weekly acupuncture and laser therapy! I love all animals, but cats have a special place in my heart.
On my spare time, you can find me curled up with a good book with my kitties, Franny and Sassy.
