Dr. Israel Arteaga

Dr. Israel Arteaga is a General Practitioner who began veterinary medicine in 2008.

Born and raised in Mexico City, Dr. Arteaga says that he fell in love with the idea of a career in animal care as a child growing up around farm animals. “I always wanted to help and treat them as they were sick,” he says. “Now that I am a veterinarian I really enjoy being able to interact and educate clients on how to care and develop the best health care plans for their loved ones.”

His areas of particular professional interest include dentistry, dermatology, critical care, and pain management. He is also a member of the Ontario Veterinary Medical Association and the Canadian Veterinary Medical Association.

His interests include all outdoor activities, especially biking, running and hiking.

Dr. Ang-Francisco continued on to the Ontario Veterinary College, graduating in 2018, where she developed interests in preventative health care, anesthesia, and surgery. She now strives to work closely with clients to achieve the best quality of care for each four-legged family member.

"I'm Cameryn, one of the veterinary technicians here at Bridletowne Warden Animal Hospital. I graduated from Seneca college in 2021 and have been enjoying my time as a vet tech ever since!

I love spending time with your fluffy family members, and I always look forward to meeting new puppies and kittens. I do have quite a few fluffy family members myself, along with some non-fluffy ones like lizards, turtles, snakes and an axolotl. When I'm not spending time with animals I'm usually outdoors exploring new places, watching scary movies or YouTube videos, or hanging out with my friends."
