Dr. Hayley Biederbeck

Veterinarian

Dr. Hayley has wanted to be a veterinarian for as long as she can remember—ever since she first learned what a veterinarian was. She pursued that dream with dedication, earning a Bachelor of Science with a double major in Biology and Biochemistry from the University of Winnipeg before graduating from the Western College of Veterinary Medicine (WCVM) in Saskatoon in 2010. 

Dr. Hayley is passionate about providing exceptional medical care and treats every patient as if they were her own. She is known for the strong bonds she builds with both her patients and their families, fostering lasting relationships based on trust and compassion.

Her professional interests include abdominal ultrasound, internal medicine—particularly endocrinology—and soft tissue surgery. She provides care for rabbits, guinea pigs, hamsters, and of course dogs and cats. She is also Fear Free Certified. 

Originally from rural Manitoba, Dr. Hayley fell in love with the mountains the first time she saw them and has proudly called Red Deer home since 2010. She lives with her husband, who is also a veterinarian, their two children, a retired service dog named Mola, who has accompanied her to speak at countless schools and career days, and a goofy doodle/yeti named Stilton.

Dr. Hayley spends her winters on the ski hill doing her best to keep up with her children, who compete in alpine ski racing. In the summer, she enjoys spending time in her garden and finding every excuse to be outdoors. She and her husband are year round world travellers, and are happy to be able to share the travel bug with their kids, routinely taking them to the far corners of the globe.
