HOLISTIC PET WELLBEING

Dr Brenda graduated from the Western College of Veterinary Medicine in Saskatoon,SK with Great Distinction in 1994. She has worked mixed practice, emergency and small animal practice as a locum, an associate and as a practice owner. In 2000, she established Cowichan Veterinary Services, a full service clinic for pets and provided housecall appointments in the Cowichan Valley, on southern Vancouver Island. Witnessing skyrocketing pet illness, in spite of western medicine's best practices,             Dr Brenda chose to retire from traditional practice to focus on minimizing health problems by optimizing our pet's wellbeing with alternative strategies.

Dr Brenda follows the guidelines of Hippocrates (450 B.C.) the Father of Medicine, supporting our pet's amazing healing abilities and letting food be their medicine, and above all - not causing harm! 

Doesn't that just make sense?

Prior to retirement, Dr Brenda was a member in good standing of:  the College of Integrative Veterinary Therapies, the Alberta Veterinary Medical Association, the College of Veterinarians of British Columbia and the Canadian Veterinary Medical Association.

She is a supporter of:   Hope of the World Ministeries, the  Physician’s Committee for Responsible Medicine, Vaccine Choice Canada, and several charities improving the lives of animals.  She is an admirer of the natural world, a wild-crafter, a tree hugger, a weaver and the dedicated Guardian of Cody, Ellie, Max, Kink, and Keeper.  Dr Brenda is a follower of Jesus Christ.
