Welcome Dr. Edwin!

Dr. Edwin Mulder ten Kate is a Western College of Veterinary Medicine graduate who owned and operated Gladwin Veterinary Clinic in Abbotsford for 28 years. He is now easing into retirement by providing part-time care at Hope Veterinary Services.

While at Gladwin, he primarily cared for dogs and cats while developing a keen interest (but not board certification) in ferret medicine. He also treats reptiles (no snakes, sorry!), especially popular species like bearded dragons, as well as rabbits, guinea pigs, rats, small birds, sugar gliders, hedgehogs, and other small “critters.”

In his spare time, he loves spending time with his wife, 2 kids, 1 dog, and 2 cats. He is an AVID tennis player (and a few other sports) and has really developed a passion for hiking in our beautiful back country. Rain or shine, you will find him climbing new peaks in the Lower Mainland.

We are so happy to welcome Dr. Edwin to our family! He is available for exotic pet appointments (as well as cat and dog!) at our Hope location on Wednesday afternoons. To book an appointment, please give us a call at 604-796-9555 (Agassiz) or 604-869-9555 (Hope).
