History

The Burns Lake Veterinary Clinic was established by Dr. Lois Martin, DVM, in 1989 as a solo mixed animal vet clinic. The clinic soon expanded with the addition of a second vet, Dr. Caroline Kuys, in 1991. Both veterinarians are graduates of the Western College of Veterinary Medicine in Saskatoon, Sask. We pride ourselves on being “traditional, James Herriot-style” veterinarians, providing service  for a variety of species with a variety of conditions in a variety of settings. The practice covers a large area from Fort Fraser to Houston, north to Granisle, and south through the Grassy Plains and Wisteria areas across Francois Lake. Patients of the clinic are mostly cats, dogs and other small pets, but services are also available to the many large species on both hobby and large scale farms in the area.
