A bit about us
Hello and welcome to my first attempt at a blog! I am Dr. Scott Bainbridge, and I have spent the last 25 years working as a veterinarian in Toronto, Canada. Recently, I sold my stake in my downtown veterinary clinic and am now dedicating my efforts to giving back to the profession by volunteering my time to assist less fortunate animals. Presently, I am conducting ongoing sterilization initiatives for dogs and cats in Latin America, and most recently, I have been devoting my time to treating injured wildlife in rural Australia.

Calum Bainbridge
Calum Bainbridge is my son and is a real "chip off the old block". He recently graduated with his Bachelor of Science from Dalhousie University in Halifax, Canada and helps by volunteering his skills with me in Latin America. After spending a week at Jane Goodall's Chimpanzee Sanctuary in the Congo he is now considering pursuing a career in wildlife medicine and conservation.
