Charlene Hoogendoorn
Registered Veterinary Technologist
I started my career in Veterinary medicine in 2001 working as a Veterinary Assistant. I really enjoyed the profession, so I enrolled in the online Animal Health Technologist Program through TRU. I graduated from Thompson Rivers University with my Animal Health Technologist diploma in 2007. I took a break from working in the industry for a few years to stay home with my kids and help my husband with his growing construction company. Now that my kids are in school I am happy to be back working in the industry. I have missed building relationships with my co-workers, clients, and patients and look forward to caring for cats and dogs again. What I enjoy most about my job is patient care. My main interests in the veterinary field include anesthesia and dentistry and I strive to ensure your pets stay at the clinic as comfortable as possible.
