DVM, BSc, MPH, Veterinarian

Dr Kathryn LeMerise is a female Veterinarian.

Wanting to become a veterinarian is one of the earliest memories I have. I was gifted a pink stethoscope at age five from my grandparents who had a very tolerant domestic shorthair named, “Poulan.” This goal became more concrete when I discovered that helping animals as a veterinarian involved working through medical problems with a fellow-minded team to help animals and their pet parents.

It was clear The Cat Clinic practiced a high calibre of medicine and care from the moment I started placement as a vet student. The commitment of the team to do their best for each and every cat that came into the clinic was inspiring. Those few weeks catalysed a passion for feline medicine. With each cat having their own specific needs, they each require an individual approach and treatment plan to help promote their health and well-being.

My goal in meeting every cat is to understand each cat’s unique personality. I aim to provide a personalised and high-standard of care that will be helpful for each cat, their parents, and the bond they share. I work hard with my colleagues and clients to accomplish the best possible outcome for each patient I meet.
