About
Animal HealthLink
We created AHL with the vision to improve the lives of veterinary professionals and the patients they serve.
Our mission is to give veterinary professionals the ability to focus on what they do best: taking care of the patient.
THE ANIMAL HEALTHLINK STORY
We Are Here to Help...
AHL was founded out of passion for veterinary emergency medicine and lack of non-clinical opportunities for RVTs. We saw the veterinary labour challenges worsen during the pandemic, however there is a large experienced non-clinical workforce eager to help.
We combined our passion for Triage and mobilized an experienced RVT workforce and created a service that enables clinical staff to help patients and keeps veterinary professionals in clinics and in the industry.
AHL was founded in late 2020 in Calgary, Alberta by Leilani Mustillo, RVT and Sean Neate, DVM. They launched the After-hours TeleTriage support service in January 2021 and continue to grow and develop triage services to support veterinary practices.
