Services
Vaccinations
We provide core and lifestyle-based vaccinations for puppies, kittens, and adult pets to prevent infectious diseases. Our protocols follow veterinary guidelines to ensure proper immunity development while considering each pet's age, health status, and exposure risks. Vaccinations protect against rabies, distemper, parvovirus, and other preventable illnesses, contributing to community-wide pet health safety.
Dental Care
Our dental services include routine cleanings, periodontal treatment, and oral surgery to maintain pets' dental hygiene. Advanced equipment allows thorough examinations and treatments under anesthesia for comprehensive care. We educate owners on home dental care practices to prevent tooth decay and gum disease, which can impact overall health if left untreated.
Surgical Services
We perform spaying/neutering, soft tissue, and orthopedic surgeries using modern techniques and monitoring equipment. Pre-anesthetic bloodwork ensures surgical safety, while pain management protocols support recovery. Our facility handles both elective procedures and emergency surgeries, with post-operative care instructions tailored to each pet's specific needs.

For after-hours emergencies, we partner with 24/7 care centers to provide continuous critical care access. Our team offers triage guidance over the phone and coordinates transfers when necessary. Services include trauma treatment, poisoning response, and acute illness management to stabilize pets before referral to specialized emergency facilities.

I was so scared handing my baby over for her operation to get all that junk out of her body. Cranston Vet hospital went above and beyond with the love and the care she showed both me and Nita. The job the did was SPECTACULAR! I SHE JUST got her stitches out today, and she's healed perfectly. It was a pretty serious surgery and it went seamless. I cannot thank then enough. And very reasonably priced considering ANY VCA hospital. They're so loving and caring. Three thumbs up. Thanks so much guys!!!

I lost my dear puppy last week and Dr Kayla was the most empathetic and kind veterinarian I have had the pleasure to meet. My heart was broken and yet I felt like they loved him like he was family. If I could give you six stars I would

We took our dog to the Cranston vet hospital after an accident and she had been cut on her flank near her ribs. Dr. VanderPol and the rest staff were AMAZING! They got us in quickly to have her cut assessed and were able to treat her soon after. We could not have asked for better care and attention than what they gave our dog. We would absolutely recommend this vet to anyone and will now be having them care for all our pets going forward.

This is one of the few vets that I actually felt cared for in Calgary. They were able to see us on a Saturday when no one in my area could. They listened to my concerns and explained treatment and diagnosis with me clearly. My pup had an accident in the room and no one made me feel bad or embarrassed. We never felt rushed and we didnt have to sit in the waiting room for hours to be seen! And they emailed me the blood test results and notes from the conversation in the room which sometimes can get forgotten in the panic of worrying about your sick pupper and being handed a bunch of different

I took my puppy in to get spayed, when I called in I was told it would be $398.00. So I booked the appointment and it ended up costing me over $700. Please make sure when calling for pricing you ask about all the extra charges they add on. Otherwise the staff was excellent, very friendly. They did a great job taking care of my puppy. I would have given 5 stars if it was given the full cost upfront when I booked the appointment.
Update: I've been here several times since my 3 star review and have had a great experience every time. Very attentive staff, I trust them to deal with my high anxiety
