Dr. Virginie De Busscher

Dr. Virginie graduated from the Veterinary School of Liège in Belgium in 2002. After a rotating internship followed by one year of assistantship in radiology at the Veterinary School of Maisons-Alfort in France, she entered a three-year residency program in Liège Veterinary School. After successfully passing the final examination, she was awarded the title of Specialist of the European College of Veterinary Diagnostic imaging (ECVDI) in 2009. She worked in some prestigious universities in Canada and in France, as well as in several referral veterinary centres in the United Kingdom, in Singapore and in Hong Kong. She is the only diplomate of the European College of Veterinary Diagnostic Imaging and only recognised Specialist in Diagnostic Imaging of the Royal College of Veterinary Surgeons in Hong Kong.

At VSH, Dr. Virginie will be collaborating and supporting our VSH veterinarians by providing inhouse ultrasounds and on-site evaluations of radiographs, CT scans and MRI studies, as well as performing fine needle aspirates and biopsies, to aid in uncovering our patients' conditions and help arrive at a timely diagnosis, while allowing for a faster transition between VSH Services should additional procedures need to be performed under the same anaesthesia.

Dr. Virginie loves all pets. She typically interacts with cats, dogs, but can investigate exotic pets as well. She enjoys teaching students in all parts of the world and she is always happy to share her knowledge with veterinarian colleagues or during international meetings.
