Gabriola Island's Vet Clinic Closes: Pet Owners in Crisis
Gabriola Islands only veterinary clinic, Twin Cedars Veterinary Clinic, is closing this summer after 25 years of service. Owners Patricia Leather and Thomas Uhlig, known for their small-town vet care, couldnt find a buyer and are retiring. The closure leaves a significant gap, as the island relies on ferries for access to other vets, and emergencies pose challenges. Locals are concerned about the impact on pets, especially during summer heat. The owners plan to stay on the island, while the community seeks a new vet. This closure reflects a broader trend, with WorkBC predicting nearly 800 vet job openings across the province by 2035, primarily due to retirements.
