Dr. I. Elizabeth Borgmann
Veterinary medicine is Dr. Borgmann’s second career!
She started out in molecular biology (gene cloning) and was working for the National Research Council in Saskatoon when her beloved black lab escaped and was hit by a car.
Devastated, Dr. Borgmann’s husband took their dog to the Western College of Veterinary Medicine for treatment. Only then did he find out it was Dr. Borgmann’s life long dream to become a veterinarian. With his encouragement & support she left her career and returned to school.
Dr. Borgmann has never looked back! While in Saskatoon Dr. Borgmann worked with the Zoological Society and the Forestry Farm Park and Zoo to develop their interpretive zoo programs and was integral in convincing the city to build an on site hospital for the care & treatment of the animals at the zoo.
Dr. Borgmann’s other areas of interest in veterinary medicine are pain management, diagnostic imaging and feline medicine.
Dr. Borgmann is proud to be a Fear Free Certified Professional, Elite, plus Avian! As well, Dr. Borgmann is a driving force behind helping our hospital become AAHA Accredited, as well as achieving our Cat Friendly ranking.
Dr. Borgmann currently lives with 4 cats, a rottweiler, and a husband! When not working, Dr. Borgmann enjoys spending time outdoors, gardening and traveling. She is a consummate cook and baker, and the staff often enjoy delicious treats from her home.
