Welcome to Lakeshore Animal Clinic Ltd

Dr. Wilson obtained his Bachelor of Science degree from Simon Fraser University in 1993 and graduated from the Western College of Veterinary Medicine in 1996.

Dr. Wilson enjoys general practice because of the diversity of cases he sees and the clients he gets to meet. One aspect Dr. Wilson finds particularly rewarding is providing relief from arthritis pain in his geriatric patients. There are so many  treatment options available that Dr. Wilson believes there is no excuse for these pets to suffer daily from this very common affliction.

Dr. Wilson enjoys spending his free time with his three children and new puppy Jack.

Brittany was born and raised in Vernon. From a young age she always felt a strong love for animals. She worked training dogs at a local dog daycare which made her realize that she wanted to get into the veterinary field. Brittany has been in the industry since 2017, and has been our office manager since 2021.

Ciara recently completed the veterinary assistant program at the Center for Arts and Technology. Since working in the field her love for animals has increased significantly.

'I just want to drink coffee, save animals and take naps.'

Paytyn was born in Calgary, Alberta. She was raised in sunny Kelowna, BC where she completed her veterinary assistant program at The Center for Arts and Technology in 2018. She is lucky enough to be called 'Mom' by her daughter River, two cats (Charlie and Garfield) and her dog Ava a Shepherd/Husky cross. Growing up I feel as though a career in the veterinary industry was talked about much less than becoming a doctor, nurse, lawyer etc. I really hope to see the veterinary field get more exposure and to see more and more young, newly graduated people joining the profession! I hope to inspire more people to join such an amazing career. Who wouldn't be happy working with cute animals all day!

Xiola moved to Kelowna when she was 10. She grew up on a farm most of her life and has always wanted to work with animals. Xiola graduated from The Center for Arts and Technology in 2022.

Emma was born and raised in the Okanagan, and grew up with dogs her whole life. After 3 years of working on a farm, she decided to pursue a carrier in the veterinary field. Emma graduated from The Centre of Arts and Technology VHA program in 2021. She has 3 dogs of her own, Stella (Mastiff X), Luna (Belgian Malinois X), JohnJohn (Great Pyrenees X), and a cat named Smokey.

Kassia has had the dream of becoming a vet since she was 3 years old. She has been working in vet clinics since 2013. She moved from the lower mainland to the Okanagan to study general sciences at UBC. She is now studying veterinary medicine in Europe and plans to practice in Kelowna when she graduates. On the weekends, she enjoys doing wine tastings or going to the lake with her big pup, Benson.
