Dr. Marius Oliver Vasilescu (Dr. V) is the newest addition to the well-established Parkland Animal Clinic. After receiving his Doctor of Veterinary Medicine, Masters degree, and Ph.D. degree in his home country of Romania, he moved to Canada and spent the following years completing a Surgical Internship at Canada West Veterinary Specialists. During this time, he also worked in emergency and specialty centers and general practice facilities. For the last three years, Dr. V served as the Medical Director of the Regional Animal Protection Society in Richmond, BC, as well as the Medical Consultant for Pets & Pickers, a veterinary reality show. To this day he still supports the continuing education of these teams.
Dr. Vasilescu's main interests are soft tissue and orthopedic surgeries, dentistry, and further educating pet parents. A firm believer that "An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure," Dr. V provides detailed evaluations of each pet and educates clients about ways to decrease future health risks.
Dr. V recently moved to Florida in search of sun, adventure, and fun. While not working to improve the health of the Parkland pets, Dr. V enjoys traveling with his family, dancing Tango, studying martial arts, playing squash, and enjoying plenty of mango in the sunshine state!
