Dr. Calverley grew up in Winnipeg, Manitoba and graduated from the Western College of Veterinary Medicine in 1991. She then moved to British Columbia and practiced veterinary medicine at her own small animal practice, Mission Veterinary Hospital, for 23 years while raising three daughters and many 4 legged creatures with her husband Nat. As a former water polo player, she has always been interested in how physiotherapy could help her patients, especially the older, arthritic ones.
After a trip to Holland for the 4th Symposium on Physical Therapy in Animals in 2006 she pursued her training in animal rehabilitation with the Canine Rehabilitation Institute and became a Certified Canine Rehabilitation Therapist in 2009.
She sees patients for pain assessments, mobility evaluations, acupuncture and veterinary orthotics and prosthetics. Please email info@opvancouver.com for more information about her services and availability.
