Hello! I’m Dr. Yoni Gootgarts and I am so excited to be a part of the Fifth Avenue team! I received my honours biology degree at Western University before working for a few years as a veterinary assistant and receptionist, after which I attended the University of Guelph to obtain my Doctor of Veterinary Medicine degree. I have a special interest in internal medicine, surgery and diagnostics.
When I’m not at work, I enjoy spending time with loved ones. Whether it be hiking, watching and/or playing basketball, going to the movie theatre or just watching movies at home!
I have a calico cat at home named Shuba (pictured above), a family dog named Chika, and an African Grey parrot named Zosya.
I look forward to working with you and your pet at Fifth Avenue!
