Dr. Kimberley Joyce

Veterinarian

Welcome to MacCormick Veterinary Services! I am excited to share this journey with you. As a 1995 Ontario Veterinary College graduate, I’ve cultivated a broad range of experiences and now I’m happy to call MacCormick Veterinary Services my home. I have a strong love for the human-animal bond and a gentle approach to everything I do. I enjoy taking the time to explore every aspect of your companion’s health and healing. I look forward to seeing you soon!

Dr. Bob Van Delst

Veterinarian

I am passionate about pets and their people. Having grown up on my family’s farm (in nearby Finch, Ontario), I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life. Following graduation from the Ontario Veterinary College in 1995, I have had the pleasure of working in veterinary practices in rural, cottage, and urban settings. As a member of the MacCormick Veterinary Services team, I am thrilled to join a community so close to home.

Kathleen

Animal Health Technician

Hello, my name is Kathleen and I guess you could call me a “lifer” here at MacCormick Veterinary Services. I have been blessed to call this my home for over “29” years 😊

The staff here are amazing, loving and hard-working people. Our fur clients are always number one in our hearts and souls.

We look forward to seeing you.

Melissa

Registered Veterinary Technician

My name is Melissa and I was born and raised in New Brunswick. I graduated from Oulton College as a Veterinary Technician in 2014 then worked in Halifax, Nova Scotia for three years before moving to Vankleek Hill in 2017. I have worked in various clinics, gaining experience in exotic animals, intensive care and emergency, and internal medicine. My passion lies with general practice and I was thrilled to join the MacCormick Veterinary Services team in 2020 after working for three years in Ottawa.

I have four cats as well as two children named Myles and Keeley. Outside of work I enjoy spending time with family, playing video games, and reading books.

Elodie

Registered Veterinary Technician

My name is Elodie and I was raised right here in Vankleek Hill! My family and I always knew I would end up in the vet medicine world as I had a special interest in helping out with the family hobby farm. After high school, I graduated from the Algonquin College’s Veterinary Technician Program in the summer of 2021 and obtained my RVT status shortly after. I take pride in working with my team to ensure every patient gets the care they need to live a long and healthy life. In my free time, I love to travel and spend time with my senior pup named Bits.

Caitlin

Registered Veterinary Technician

Hi, I’m Caitlin. I was born and raised in the Ottawa area. I graduated from the Veterinary Technician program at Algonquin College in 2021, passing the national RVT exam a few months later. Upon graduating I began working at a pet hospital in Ottawa. I was very excited to become a part of the MacCormick Veterinary family in 2022. I look forward to work everyday knowing I get to spend it with wonderful humans and amazing furry friends.

My family home always had pets. We have shared many adventures with our dogs, ferrets, budgies and guinea pigs. I currently have a Sphynx and a Cornish Rex, and will soon welcome a miniature Bull Terrier into my home. When I’m not working I love to travel and spend time with friends and family.

Marie

Animal Health Technician

Hi, I’m Marie and a proud mother of two young boys and three fur babies.

I’ve always had an interest in animals. Veterinary medicine and caring for animals is my passion!

In my free time, I enjoy 4-wheeling with family, helping out at our dairy farm, and scrapbooking.

Audrey

Receptionist

Hi! I have been working at MacCormick Veterinary Services during holidays and summers since 2021, and recently have moved from being an animal care assistant to working at the front desk full time as reception.

I greatly enjoy working here and especially love seeing all the young cats and dogs that come to the clinic for their routine vaccines!

Erin

Receptionist

Hello, my name is Erin and I am thrilled to be here!

I absolutely love animals and the special relationships between people and their fur babies.

I have been the devoted caregiver to many dogs and cats and exotic friends – they all hold a beautiful place in my heart!

I look forward to meeting you and your loved ones – big and small – I’ll be the one with the treats and open arms!

Trouble

Clinic Kitty

Clinic kitty extraordinaire. Trouble is often found sleeping behind Dr. Joyce’s laptop on a bed of soft blankets. Every now and then you may catch her wandering about checking out the exam rooms or the food room! Be sure to stop in and say hello.
