Dr. Alisha Janzen was born in Southern Ontario and raised alongside the family cats, dogs, and extended family’s herds of dairy cows.  At the age of 8, she decided to become a veterinarian, and never second guessed that choice!

After graduating from the Ontario Veterinary College in 2004, she and her husband moved to Saskatoon, SK for what they expected to be a 1 year internship in Large Animal Medicine at the Western College of Veterinary Medicine.  A 4 year residency and a Master’s Degree in Veterinary Science later, she was thrilled to be working at a small rural clinic in Saskatchewan that served both large and small animals.

More changes came in 2012.  With the birth of her first child, and her husband completing his post-graduate degrees, they settled outside Edmonton for her husband’s new faculty position with The King’s University.  After her maternity leave Alisha made the decision to switch exclusively to small animal practice, which better suited her young family.

After 7 years in practice in South Edmonton, Alisha is excited to join the team at the Range Road Veterinary Clinic! When not at work, Alisha can usually be found chasing after her 2 energetic young children; walking her aging but spry beagle, or with her nose in a good book.
