A bit of history regarding the Lancaster Veterinary Clinic and the Cornwall Veterinary Clinic.
Dr .Daniel Guillet and Dr. Barbara Bougie, both young veterinarians, chose Lancaster to be their home after graduating from the university of Guelph in 1988.
They bought the practice from Dr. Abbey, who was a well known veterinarian in the area.
Dr. Dan and Dr. Barbara focused their practice on both farm and domestic animals.
Sadly, Dr. Barbara passed away prematurely leaving Dr. Dan, at that point, to focus his energy on domestic animals keeping in both the Lancaster and Cornwall clinics going.
He was blessed to have 2 partners in his team, his assistants Tracy Jodoin ( over 25 years ) and Lisa Jodoin (over 10 years ).
They both have been tremendous help to clients and their companions.
After many years of being in practice and doing as well emergency services, Dr. Dan decided it was time to give the reins to Dr. Michael Saadalla and agreed to stay on a part time basis.
Outside the clinic Dr. Dan enjoys travelling and exploring new countries and cultures.
