Dr. Gosal grew up on a farm in Punjab, India, caring for cows, buffalo, dogs, and fish. Losing a sick dog to a lack of nearby veterinary care shaped his decision to enter the field.

After three years as a mixed animal veterinarian, he moved to Edmonton in 2008, completed his Canadian and U.S. licensing, and has spent close to six years practicing small animal medicine in the Edmonton area.
