Who are we?
In the current context, we believe that a large proportion of pets do not have access or cannot benefit from the expertise of a veterinary specialist. This was the premise behind our decision to invest in a new specialty veterinary services initiative.
Our goal is to make those types of services more widely available and to reduce stress in patients by eliminating the need to travel to a reference centre to receive proper care. Our veterinary advice is available via mobile and remote consultation and diagnosis.
What is a veterinary specialist?
Following their residency, veterinary specialists must pass a rigorous Board examination requiring months of preparation and study. As is the case for human medicine, there are more than 20 different specialties in veterinary medicine.
When general veterinarians determine that a patient’s condition is too severe or complex for general treatments or to reach a diagnosis, they will refer the pet to a veterinary specialist:
- Cardiology is concerned with cardiovascular disorders such as congestive heart failure, cardiomyopathy (hypertrophic or dilated), valvular heart diseases, congenital defects, and irregular heartbeats.
- Internal edicine deals with the diagnosis and treatment of various diseases and disorders of the internal structures and organs (stomach, liver, hormone-secreting glands, etc.). This a specialty that treats complex, unusual, rare, and chronic cases.
In other words, those versatile internists are consulted for cases of persistent diarrhea, weight loss with no obvious cause, nasal discharge, etc. Just like humans, pets can suffer from diabetes, thyroid issues, peptic ulcers, and constipation. - Animal dentistry treats dental and jaw problems, as well as gum disorders. Pets can suffer from trauma caused by chewed objects or toys, or experience accidental jaw fractures. Lastly, several smaller breeds are more at risk of developing dental issues (retained baby teeth, malocclusion, etc.).

DR. AVRIL HAMEL-JOLETTE, DVM, IPSAV, Dipl. ACVIM (M.I.)
INTERNAL MEDICINE SPECIALIST
After getting familiar with the general field of study for a year, she decided to continue her studies in 2006 by completing an internship in medicine and surgery in the same college.
Driven by challenges and medical mysteries, she went in Ontario to attend the University of Guelph in 2007 where she specialized in internal medicine. She graduated from the American College of Veterinary Medicine in 2010.
As much as endocrinology and infectious diseases trigger her interest, what truly fascinates her about her specialty is the big picture when it comes to a patient’s global health.
She finds each animal-master couple to be unique and enjoys working hand in hand with animal handlers to improve their pets’ quality of life.
DR. JOSÉE MARCOUX, DVM, IPSAV, DES (dental care)
DENTISTRY
Because of her profile and background, she is immediately drawn into choosing a medical specialty, and starts gaining experience in the field of veterinary dentistry as soon as she begins her second year of studies. She enjoys and completes a general internship working with small pets, as well as a dental residency program at the same university.
Dr. Marcoux has undertaken about a dozen of external dental medicine internships across Canada and the United States as she developed her curriculum.
It is to strengthen her bonds with her colleagues that she joined E- vet Mobiles following her residency in 2020.
