Who We Are
Our goal at Trans-Canada Pet Wellness Clinic is to provide your pet with the best possible care and services. Our doctors are able to perform annual examinations, vaccinations, and treatment for routine health problems. Depending on the severity of your pet's illness, we may refer you to another facility where X-rays or hospitalization can be provided for your pet.
Dr. Bill Golbeck

With his 3 adult children following their own ambitions, Bill now spends his spare time with his partner Tatjana and their two cats Joey and Lucy.

After a brief time with a local mixed practice in Ontario, he moved to Calgary, working emergency shifts and day locums while exploring the mountains in his time off. Bill and his wife Tatjana started the Westmount Animal Clinic in 1989 and eventually sold it in 2018. After a short transition period/retirement, he is grateful and delighted to be able to see pets again and continue practicing at various clinics.
