Jeff W. Goodall, DVM, BSc
Dr. Goodall wanted to be a veterinarian from the age of 12, and thanks to his first dog 'Mishka' and his high school home-room teacher, was able to sled race with the Siberian Husky Club in southern Ontario - thereby starting him on the road to where he is now. Dr. Goodall graduated from the Atlantic Veterinary College in 1994, after obtaining a BSc from Dalhousie University. After graduation, Dr. Goodall traveled extensively through western Canada over four years as a mixed animal veterinarian, before returning to his native Nova Scotia. Dr. Goodall splits his time between caring for his clients' and his own pets; "Schui"- a Canadian Eskimo Dog, and "Sunny" & "Bobbi"-his cats, and his (very) understanding family.
Dr. Goodall is a Level 1 Certified Laser Clinician, and attends regular continuing education programs, frequently exceeding the minimum annual hours required for licensing as, he believes there is so much our practice can offer any one of our patients. Also, Dr. Goodall is a member of the 'Canadian Veterinary Reserve', and is on call for outbreaks of foreign animal disease(s) and/or civilian emergencies for the welfare of animals and people.
In addition to enjoying the practice of veterinary medicine, Dr. Goodall is happy to speak or write on small animal care, dog bite prevention in children and the benefits of C02 Laser surgery. Currently, Dr. Goodall regularly contributes to, or writes articles for various organizations, and has had the good fortune to appear on 'Maritime Morning' with Andrew Krystal on occassion. Also, he can be found kayaking anywhere within the HRM, when patients permit!
