Steve graduated from the Ontario Veterinary College in 2004 and after working at other animal hospitals in the city decided to open his own veterinary hospital. In 2007, together with his wife, he opened Leslieville Animal Hospital and in 2011 decided to open Davisville Park Animal Hospital in the neighbourhood where his wife grew up. Steve’s professional interests include soft tissue surgery, internal medicine and dentistry. When not working he caters to his cat Norm and his dog Ivy and busily chases after his four young children.
Candace graduated from the Ontario Veterinary College in 2019 and started her veterinary career here at Davisville Park Animal Hospital in May 2019. Her professional interests include internal medicine, clinical pathology, and ultrasound. With her free time, Candace enjoys hiking, traveling, and spending time with her family. Her favourite part about visiting her hometown in Stouffville, ON is reuniting with her fluffy canine brother, Bailey.
Natasha started working with Dr. Avery in July of 2015 at Leslieville Animal Hospital. She has been working in the veterinary industry since 2001 with a focus on client care and transitioned to manager in October of 2020. Her favourite part of living in the city is all of the great food and she spends most of her time with her cat Nermal.
Noelle graduated from Seneca College as a Registered Veterinary Technician in 2015 and joined the Davisville Park Animal Hospital family in April of 2019. When not busy caring for the patients, Noelle is often at home with what she refers to as ‘The Horde’. ‘The Horde’ consists of Noelle’s boyfriend and her best friend/roommate, along with their five very spoiled cats and an absolutely adored fluffy corgi puppy. These very loved creatures include: Noelle’s own three-legged Jeremiah, nervous Nova, mentally disabled (cerebellar hypoplasia) Meteor and Aurora Rae fondly known as Rory, who can often be seen around the clinic when helping out at work. As well as the roommate’s precious Jade and the boyfriend’s chill Chibs.

Yvonne recently joined the Leslieville team early 2018. She took in a handful of strays throughout her childhood starting at the young age of 6, which essentially sparked her passion to work in the animal health field. Prior to joining the team, she enjoyed volunteering at clinics as an animal attendant and helping out with an organization called Toronto Cat Rescue. She was involved in administrative work and was trained as a Foster Home Screener, Foster Home Coordinator and as an Adoption Counsellor. She also enjoys organizing adoption events for stray cats and uses her counselling experience to ensure that the cats find their compatible forever homes. Yvonne is in her third year of her Undergrad for Biomedical Science at York University and hopes to become a veterinarian one day.
Brittany is currently a Veterinary Technician student at Sheridan College. When she is not studying she enjoys yoga, attending live sporting events, and spending time with friends. Brittany has two fur babies at home, a dog named Rubio and a cat named Nova. One of her favourite activities is going on pack walks with Rubio, her friends, and all Rubio’s dog friends!
Nicole is in her first year of her Master of Science degree in Radiology at the Ontario Veterinary College as she continues to pursue her goal of becoming a veterinarian. Nicole has known she wanted to work in the veterinary industry since she was 8 years old. She started her animal experience volunteering at a local wildlife rehabilitation centre and since then she has been striving to help advocate for the health and well-being of animals. Nicole has been fortunate enough to volunteer in animal research projects at the University of Guelph and work in various general practice clinics and wildlife rehabilitation centres. Prior to joining the team, she worked at a referral hospital in the surgery department, and is now here to learn more about general practice. When she’s not working or studying, Nicole enjoys going to the gym, reading books, travelling and spending time with her family and pets (Holland lop-eared bunny and bengals).
Alyssa has known her whole life she wanted to work with animals. She volunteered at a clinic in high school and from there decided to attend Durham College for Animal Care. Upon graduation she worked at an emergency veterinary clinic, but is now glad to be back in a small practice. She hopes to one day go back to school for veterinary technology. When not at the clinic she enjoys spending time with her boyfriend Spencer, her cat Nala and potcake dog Shilo.
