Douglas Reynolds

The College of Veterinarians of Ontario brought allegations of professional misconduct against the member regarding his treatment of a dog that presented with stiffness and later developed severe kidney failure.

The Discipline Committee found that the member failed to recommend appropriate diagnostic testing or aggressive treatment for the dog's kidney failure, and that his medical records were inaccurate and inadequate.

The Committee accepted the College's expert evidence and refused to qualify the member's proposed expert due to bias.

The member was found to have engaged in professional misconduct by failing to maintain the standards of practice, failing to make proper records, and engaging in unprofessional conduct.
