Meet Our Team

Dr Nancy Roncal has been a small animal practitioner for over 30 years.  After obtaining her Canadian veterinary licence, Dr. Roncal worked in a 24-hour small animal hospital in Toronto, where she honed her emergency and internal medicine skills before opening Rathburn Animal Clinic in 2004.

Her goal is to serve your pet's needs and assure that you, the owner, are well informed and comfortable with the decisions you make regarding your pet's care.

She shares her passion for pets with her husband, three sons, and a daughter.  She has a dog - Ginger and three cats - Lucas, Ginger and Tai.  In her spare time, Dr. Roncal does gardening, reading, and listening to classical music.

Oksana has been a dedicated and enthusiastic member of Rathburn Animal Clinic since 2009. She is currently enrolled in a Business Management program at the University of Toronto.  She has a passion for animals and is a proud owner of one spoiled cat.  Sometimes during work, she can be found playing with our in-clinic cats and giving them treats.  Oksana also enjoys shopping, skiing and learning French on time away from her studies and work.

She started with Rathburn Animal Clinic in 2011.  Nateesha's interest in the veterinary industry has prompted her to pursue a post -secondary training in Animal Science.  Her excellent customer service skills make her an essential part of our Team.  In her spare time, she loves spending time with her two children and her three lovely cats.

Katie first came to Rathburn Animal Clinic as a high school co-op student in 2008.  She is currently enrolled at Ryerson University, pursuing a degree in Social Work.  It is her love for animals that keeps her here with us as a receptionist and assistant.  In her spare time you might find her spending quality time at home with her two cats, her family and friends, or teaching herself the guitar.

Charlene has been working at the Rathburn Animal Clinic since 2010 as a Veterinary Assistant/Receptionist.  She is in the process of completing her final year at York University and hopes to further her education in the Veterinary field.  She enjoys spending time with her three dogs at home, loves yoga, and a good read.
