Dr. Katie Gallagher
Dr. Katie Gallagher graduated from the Ontario Veterinary College at the University of Guelph in 2016. She initially commuted to work in Welland and Niagara Falls for 3.5 years and then started at Briarwood as it was much closer to home. She has been with the team since 2020 but took a short break from full-time work to help a friend with her mobile veterinary practice, treating backyard poultry and small animals. She is now the lead veterinarian at Briarwood.
Dr. Katie wanted to be a vet from the time she was 4 years old and her passion for the field hasn't wavered since! She is especially interested in internal medicine, dermatology, and keeping your pets fit and lean to live their best possible lives.
Dr. Katie lives with her husband, their sheepdog mix, Dobby, and cats Gizmo and Julius in Caledonia.
