DR. STEPHAN GAJADHAR, DVM - VETERINARIAN
Dr. Stephan joined the Acton Veterinary Clinic in 2021. He has been practicing Veterinary medicine for approximately 8 years before joining the wonderful team here at AVC. Having initially graduated from the University of the West Indies in the Caribbean and then subsequently doing the licensure process for North America a few years later, he has gotten a lot of interesting exposures to many various types of clinical cases from across the globe.
When not working, Dr. Stephan enjoys swimming, rock climbing, hiking and board games. He is very serious about his work and tends to be a goofball about everything else. He currently lives in Guelph with his wife and two dogs.
Dr. Stephan enjoys chatting to clients and looks forward to talking your ear off about whatever is ailing your pet. He really likes to deconstruct cases down to their bare bones and goes through things with clients in a stepwise manner. You will usually be leaving an appointment a little more enlightened and will also likely have a bit of reading material to look back on as well.
