Chelsea started her journey in veterinary medicine in Emergency, working at two different emergency animal hospitals before joining the team at ELVH. She was instantly hooked by this fast-paced treatment environment, loving the experience of working quickly as a team to provide the best care possible for patients. Chelsea brings that same level of dedication and drive to her work at ELVH, and appreciates the opportunity to connect with patients and their humans.

While taking great pleasure in helping every animal who visits the hospital, Chelsea admits to being a dog lover through and through! She has a particular soft spot for our geriatric patients, with their calm maturity and quiet sweetness. Passionate about providing top-tier patient care, Chelsea is primarily interested in medical imaging and will be furthering her education in this field.

Chelsea moved to Vancouver Island from the Okanagan in 2020, and seems to have truly found her place in the world. She loves the Island life, including hiking, camping, and anything outdoors. She’s always up for a spontaneous adventure, and with two rambunctious dogs in the family (big brother Sebastian and newest addition Riggs) she’s never short on friends to keep her company!
