Veterinarian, DVM - Part Time
Dr. Alexandra West graduated from the Western College of Veterinary Medicine in Saskatoon in 2005, and moved out to Alberta to start working at the Wetaskiwin Animal Clinic. As a child, growing up in Victoria, British Columbia, she developed a strong interest in animals early on, and decided to be a veterinarian at the age of 6. She had turtles, frogs, backyard miniature goats, a cat, 2 golden retrievers, and started a business raising and showing purebred Himalayan and Jersey Wooley rabbits at the age of 11. She spent her Saturdays working in a vet clinic as kennel help from the age of 13. Today Dr. Alexandra lives in Ponoka with her husband and 3 children. Her interests include quilting, skiing, and paddle-boarding. Her veterinary interests are broad but she most enjoys the medical cases.
