Dr. Avelino Verdadero earned his Bachelor of Science in Animal Husbandry and Doctor of Veterinary Medicine from Central Luzon State University in the Philippines, going on to complete ECFVG certification in 2022. His career has taken him across three countries, beginning with two years providing veterinary care to underserved communities through an NGO in the Philippines, followed by clinical experience as a veterinary technician and later an emergency veterinarian in both  Canada and Hong Kong.

Dr. Verdadero's clinical interests include emergency and critical care, soft tissue surgery, and community veterinary medicine, along with a growing focus on endoscopy and minimally invasive techniques. He is committed to compassionate, evidence-based care built on clear communication and collaboration with pet owners. Fluent in English, Filipino (Tagalog), and Ilocano, he brings a global perspective to his work with clients and patients alike.

Outside the clinic, Dr. Verdadero loves backpacking, exploring new cultures, and seeking out local cuisines, especially unique and exotic fruits along the way.
