Our Veterinarian and Clinic Owner -
​Dr. Pradeep Budihal DVM, MS

Dr. Budihal, or "Dr. B," became the owner of Westland Veterinary Hospital in 2009. Earning his Bachelor of Veterinary Sciences from the University of Agricultural Sciences in Bangalore, India in 1998, he then furthered his education at the Western College of Veterinary Medicine in Saskatoon completing a Masters of Science and obtaining his Doctor of Veterinary Medicine credentials. Dr. B’s early career took him across western Canada, where he gained valuable experience practicing in Saskatchewan, Manitoba, and British Columbia. His passion for veterinary medicine and commitment to high-quality patient care have been the foundation of his work ever since.

Beyond his professional life, Dr. B and his wife, Dr. Pravleen Budihal, are deeply rooted in the local community. Dr. Pravleen is an accomplished dentist and the owner of Sesame Dental, a family dental practice in Market Mall NW, Calgary. Together, they feel grateful for the opportunity to serve and support their community through their respective practices. Outside of work, Dr. B cherishes time with his wife and their two children. He enjoys traveling with his family, reading, and practicing yoga—pursuits that reflect his curiosity, mindfulness, and appreciation for a well-balanced life.
