Haw Creek Animal Hospital

Dr. Heather K. Sinclair

Dr. Sinclair is a graduate of Tufts University School of Veterinary Medicine. She also holds a B.S. in Animal Science from the University of New Hampshire.

Dr. Sinclair has been in practice since 1999. She works with cats, dogs, birds, and most other exotic pets. She will also see large animals if they can be brought to the hospital.

She was first introduced to clinical practice working as a technician for a small animal hospital and equine surgical facility. She first entered private practice as a veterinarian in Ann Arbor, Michigan. Here she continued her education by working with exotics and native wildlife.

Dr. Sinclair has a long-standing interest in the non-Western modalities that have been practiced for years (or centuries) and she has progressively adopted those that make sense or that appear to work. During her tenure in Ann Arbor, she deepened her interest and expertise in these "alternative" modalities and developed her approach to integrating alternative and complementary modalities with conventional Western approaches.

On relocating to coastal Maine, Dr. Sinclair's medicine began to focus more on small animal patients, including routine wellness visits, internal medicine cases, emergency and critical care, and a variety of surgical procedures. In Maine she also saw the practice's patients for emergencies during and after business hours, as well as working as a relief veterinarian for small and exotic animals at a nearby emergency clinic.

Her particular interests include acupuncture and other complementary modalities, oncology, and nutrition.
