Most of our patients are referred by local shelters or street outreach. Our team of volunteers is made up of veterinarians, veterinary staff, web and brand designers, authors and bloggers, laboratories, food and drug distributors, behavioural specialists, and veterinary suppliers.
This also includes veterinary students, all of whom donate their time and services to provide quality pro bono, collaborative efforts to make a difference for those most in need within our community.
Dr. Nadia Hirani
Dr. Hirani is a mother, veterinarian and entrepreneur. She completed her Bachelor of Science degree in Biological Sciences, with honors at the University of Guelph and pursued her Bachelor of Veterinary Science at the University Of Sydney, Australia.
Dr. Hirani worked in Australia for a short while prior to moving to the Greater Quinte Region where she worked in general and emergency practices. In 2015, her dreams came true as she opened the doors to a private practice, still running successfully. In 2017, Dr. Hirani brought forth Pawz for Cause, a volunteer initiative supporting pet ownership amongst the homeless people of Toronto. Today, Dr. Hirani continues providing excellence in veterinary care through mobile preventative and palliative services and relief veterinary services as she continues reaching out to the homeless to support the immeasurable bond between them and their pets.
It is her vision to ensure that every person who needs the love and support of a furry companion can do so without judgement, and without limitation by the cost of veterinary services.
