About the Author, Michiko Gehrig

I grew up on Crow Hill Road. At the time, we were the only house on that dirt road that led to infinity in the middle of "nowhere" New Brunswick. I had the forest and the wildlife as my neighbours, so as a child I was constantly on the look out to "rescue" orphaned mice, birds and baby salamanders. Nature was our backyard and once, I mistook a coyote for the family dog, calling her name and not realizing who it was until it turned around to look at me. My family had a small farm, living as much off the land as possible, and so I think that's why it came natural for me to realize I wanted to be a veterinarian since I was 8 years old. At this young age, I also felt strongly about respecting the environment, sensing how the two could not be separated. After receiving a Bachelor of Science in Biology at the University of New Brunswick in 1999, I attended the Atlantic Veterinary College in Charlottetown PEI and received my Doctor of Veterinary Medicine in 2003. I've practiced in general practice and emergency clinics in New Brunswick, Ontario and British Columbia and was humbled and delighted to open the doors of Kannon Animal Hospital in September 2012.

Each day, I continue to be grateful as the hospital has grown and evolved and I am especially awed by the team by my side, who genuinely and completely involve themselves in bringing the best we can to the community.

Thanks for visiting.
