VETERINARIAN

Returning to her hometown of Calgary, Dr. Teresa McAlpine is excited to be joining the Westhills team. A fear-free certified practitioner, Teresa graduated from the Western College of Veterinary Medicine with distinction in the spring of 2022. Her passion for caring for animals has been an integral part of her life for as long as she can remember. Throughout her undergrad, she worked and volunteered in a variety of positions, including the Westhills Veterinary Clinic.

When she is not at the clinic, Teresa can be found at home spending time with her cat Theo, and often a foster animal or two. An active lifestyle has always been a priority for her, enjoying all sports but especially volleyball and ringette. A friendly competition of beach volleyball is one of the ways she loves to connect with her family and friends, in addition to attending concerts or spending time at the lake. Travelling is also a passion of Teresa’s, and she looks forward to actively exploring more of the world.

Joining the Westhills team is an amazing opportunity for Teresa to continue to make a difference in the lives of her patients, and she is excited to be practicing all areas of small animal veterinary medicine.
