Dr. Clara Stefanyshyn graduated from the University of Calgary Faculty of Veterinary Medicine in 2018. She has a special place in her heart for cats and dedicated her first six years out of school to feline care at a cat-only practice. Now, she is eager to reconnect with her love for dogs as she embraces this new chapter at Midlake Veterinary Clinic. She is thrilled to join the team at Midlake, where she can share her passion for cats while also getting to know the wonderful canine companions in the community. Her previous veterinary knowledge and experience in an all-feline focused setting will be a tremendous asset to Midnapore Cat Clinic as well.
Dr. Clara is passionate about assisting pet owners in caring for their animals and providing guidance throughout the veterinary journey, from routine care to complex medical challenges. She also holds a deep commitment to the importance of end-of-life and palliative care, dedicating herself to helping owners and their beloved pets during these difficult moments.
Originally from Edmonton, Dr. Clara fell in love with Calgary after veterinary school for its easy access to the beautiful mountains. In her free time, she enjoys traveling and exploring the great outdoors through camping, hiking, and stand-up paddleboarding. She also cherishes cozy mornings at home solving crossword puzzles, and snuggling with her two cats, Arya and Jack.
