| Veterinarians | |||
Dr. Lesage |
My grandfather was a veterinarian, and I followed in his footsteps. I graduated with honors from WCVM in 1978, and have enjoyed practicing at McPhillips Animal Hospital since then. I have 3 dogs, a German Shepherd named Tabu, a Terrier X named Dilly, and a Yorkshire Terrier named Pixel. In my spare time, I enjoy golfing, gardening, and travel. |
Dr. Stockburger |
I was born and raised in Alberta and graduated from WVCM in 1986. I married a classmate and moved to Winnipeg as we both found jobs here. We have 3 kids and 1 cat. We're waiting to get a dog after our last child is potty trained! I especially enjoy rabbit and pocket pet medicine, and helping people enjoy their pets. I usually have no time to watch TV, but I enjoy shows like Dr. Phil and Oprah. |
Dr. Gould |
All my life I had dreamed of becoming a veterinarian. That dream became a reality in 1996 when I graduated from the WCVM. I had the opportunity to practice medicine in B.C. before coming to work at McPhillips Animal Hospital in 1999. I have a special interest in Animal Behavior and enjoy working with people and caring for their furry family members. I enjoy horseback riding, fishing, travelling, cross-country skiing, and spending time with my husband, our two children, our cat "Tusca" and our 2 Cairn Terriers "Uchi" and "Keagan". |
Dr. Nitychoruk |
I first came to McPhillips Animal Hospital with my family when I was a child. In caring for my pets, I began to appreciate the importance of an animal's health and well being; and from that became sensitive to the needs that animals cannot put into words. I attended the U of W, and then went on to study at the WCVM. I have a special interest in feline medicine, geriatric medicine and opthamology. I have 2 cats, Felix and Jinx, and enjoy running and volleyball. |
Dr. Fisk |
After graduating from high school in Atokokan, Ontario, I traveled out west and 6 years later found myself enrolled in post-secondary community colleges in Cranbrook, BC. While a student there, I was often exposed to veterinary medicine while boarding at a farm. I got to help the vet on many occasions. I couldn't get enough of it! During the last 2 years of my Bachelor of Sciences studies in Agriculture at Guelph, I worked the summers with exotic animals at the African Lion Safari in Cambridge, ON. I attended Ross University of Veterinary Medicine in St. Kitts, Caribbean Islands for 1 year, and then transferred over to the Western College of Veterinary Medicine in Saskatoon for completion of my DVM degree. I enjoy the challenges and rewards of veterinary medicine, especially all aspects of small animal surgery and have gained an immense appreciation for the human/animal bond. Away from work, my hobbies and interests include aviation (currently building my own plane), and almost anything to do with the great outdoors (fishing, camping, boating, etc.). I've thoroughly enjoyed being a part of the "team" here at McPhillips Animal hospital since I came on board in 2006. | ||

I have been working as a receptionist at our hospital since 1982. I enjoy the social aspect of the job as much as seeing the client/patient relationship develop. My family consists of 3 children, a husband, "Flakes" the rabbit, "Pixy" the guinea pig, and "Robyn" the cat. When you work in a place like this it is hard not to have pets! |
 Diane |
Ever since I was little, I have always loved and cared for animals! I have had the privilege of working at a local pet shelter, where I was responsible for pet adoption and fundraising. I have been part of Mcphillips Animal Hospital since 2004. These positions have allowed me to work with animals on a daily basis, which is the best part of the job for me! I have 3 loveable cats, Spencer, Mia and Jasmine. I enjoy spending time at the cottage, soaking up the sun and volunteer at the shelter when I can. |

I have been with McPhillips Animal Hospital since November 2007. I love all animals but especially our furry four legged companions who have wet noses and wag their tails. I grew up with our Cocker Spaniel "Sparky" for 15 years whose companionship made me realize how special pets are. My newest addition is Bella, a spunky Pomeranian and I also have Krazy Kia my 5 year old Siberian Husky. I really enjoy seeing new animals every day and getting to know them and their owners. |
 Morgan |
I am currently enrolled in High School, and enjoy every minute of it. I have been involved with McPhillips Animal Hospital ever since I could walk. I volunteered here for a year from 2006-2007, and am now working here since November 2007. My dream is to be a veterinarian. There has been a history of Animal Technologists and Veterinarians in my family, therefore giving me great experiences with caring for animals. I have known from the start this is what I want to do for the rest fo my life. I give special thanks to my father and Auntie Rhonda for showing me the joy animals can bring not just to their owners but to others as well. Also, they are the main people who are helping my dream to come true. I have 4 animals at home: my cats Trashie, Pumpkin, and "Mad" Max; and my Golden Retriever, Majik. | ||

 Sunny |
I started out at McPhillips Animal Hospital when they baby sat me while Dr. Gould was in Africa. I had such a good time meeting clients and their pets that I begged to stay! I especially love to admire the bird in the mirror and sing sweet songs to him. |
 Swanee |
I came in looking for a home, and they tried for a while to find someone for me. But I am just so loveable that no one at the hospital wanted to let me go. So here I stay, to bask in everyone's attention and take naps on everyone's chairs. |
 Snickers |
Just like Swanee, I came in looking for someone to adopt me. I curled up in the doctor's office, and have been there ever since. I like to hide away in secret spots around the clinic, so you might not be able to spot me!
