Services
Vaccinations
We provide core and non-core vaccinations for dogs and cats following AAHA guidelines. Our program includes distemper, parvovirus, rabies, and bordetella vaccines for dogs, and FVRCP plus leukemia vaccines for cats. Vaccination schedules are tailored to each pet's lifestyle and risk factors.
Dental Care
Our dental services include professional cleanings, extractions, and periodontal disease treatment. Using digital imaging and modern anesthetic protocols, we address tartar buildup, gum disease, and oral infections to prevent systemic health complications in pets.
Spay/Neuter Surgery
We perform elective spaying and neutering procedures for cats and dogs at appropriate developmental stages. These surgeries prevent unwanted litters while reducing risks of reproductive cancers and behavioral issues. Pre-anesthetic bloodwork ensures surgical safety.
Emergency Services
For after-hours emergencies, we partner with C.A.R.E Centre Animal Hospital and Fish Creek 24hr Pet Hospital. Our team coordinates critical care for trauma, poisoning, and acute illnesses through these referral facilities while providing daytime urgent care at our clinic.
Pet Nutrition
We offer personalized nutrition plans for pets at all life stages. Our staff evaluates dietary needs for puppies/kittens, adults, and seniors, addressing weight management, food allergies, and medical conditions through prescription and commercial diet recommendations.

Report
Called to see if I could make a appointment for my cat. They weren't able to quote a price for a standard x-ray which all the other offices I called were able to tell me. I asked when the earliest they would be able to see him and they said they couldn't tell me unless I sent his paperwork over from the other vet and then they would call me to book an appointment. Not sure what kind of vet office is unable to answer BASIC questions about appointment times and fees.

Dr Patel is very caring about the animals, and not overcharging like other vets. I am not sure why there are negative comments about the service. I find the staff friendly and responsive.
