Alissa grew up in a small community in Newfoundland. She received her Bachelor of Science at the Memorial University of Newfoundland prior to attending Atlantic Veterinary College. After receiving her DVM, she went on to complete a Companion Animal Rotating Internship at the Ontario Veterinary College. She worked at a 24 hour small animal clinic in Moncton, New Brunswick for a couple of years prior to making the move across Canada to join the Guardian Veterinary Centre team.

Alissa enjoys spending time outdoors and exploring new and exciting places. She shares her home with 4 cats – all rescues, with their own very unique personalities.

Our dedicated emergency veterinarians and technologists provide urgent, emergency care for your pet. No appointments are required for veterinary emergency visits. Walk-ins are welcome.

Choose VCA Canada Guardian because we care. 365 days a year in Edmonton.

Our experienced and compassionate veterinarians have access to our advanced equipment like ultrasound, X-ray, and our in-house CT scanner to diagnose and treat your pet.

If you are able, please phone 780-436-5880 to let us know about your pet’s injury or illness and your arrival time. We don’t require this phone call, so if your problem is very urgent, please proceed immediately to our emergency animal hospital at 5620 99th St in Edmonton, Alberta.

We do attempt to keep your wait time at a minimum. Like human emergency rooms, we operate on a triage system. This means critically ill animals are seen before pets with minor or non life-threatening problems. As a result, we do sometimes experience longer wait times to see one of our veterinarians.
