    Veterinarian / Partner

    Highgate is Dr. Caitlin Goldhawk’s hometown, and she is proud to have grown up in the Chatham-Kent community. She graduated from Ridgetown District High School, and from there she ventured to Guelph for university and earned her DVM at the University of Guelph’s Ontario Veterinary College. Dr. Goldhawk says that what impresses her every day is how in-tune owners are with their pets. Owners know their pets like their children and are amazing at detecting subtle changes when a pet is not well. She believes the most important part of her job is to help heal those who cannot speak for themselves. Dr. Goldhawk is happily married to her husband, Dylan, and her best “fur” friend and side-kick is their rambunctious border collie named Howard. Scarlett and Conrad are her two children who keep her busy with many funny and exciting moments!

  • Courtney Tait, HBsc, DVM
    Veterinarian

    Dr. Courtney Tait originally grew up in Bolton, Ontario with her family, including her identical twin sister. She fulfilled her lifelong dream of becoming a veterinarian when she graduated from the Ontario Veterinary College in spring 2018. She is extremely excited to begin her career with the amazing staff that makes up the Chatham Kent Veterinary team! While Dr. Tait enjoys all aspects of veterinary medicine, she especially loves that every day brings a different set of cases and challenges.

    As a new resident of the Chatham-Kent community, Dr. Tait enjoys spending her free time exploring the city as well as hiking and playing hockey. Dr. Tait can’t wait to meet all clients and their special four-legged friends!
