Preventive Care
Our preventive care services include annual exams, parasite control, and health screenings to maintain pet wellness. We create customized vaccination schedules and offer nutritional counseling to prevent disease. Early detection of potential health issues ensures longer, healthier lives for pets through regular checkups and client education.
Animal Surgery
We perform general and specialized surgical procedures including spays/neuters, orthopedic repairs, and soft tissue surgeries. Our surgical team uses modern anesthetic monitoring equipment and follows strict sterilization protocols. Post-operative care includes pain management and follow-up examinations to ensure proper healing and recovery.

Our dental services cover routine cleanings, extractions, and oral health assessments. We use digital dental X-rays to diagnose hidden issues and provide professional scaling and polishing. Regular dental maintenance prevents periodontal disease and associated systemic health problems in pets of all ages.

Went there after getting multiple personal recommendations from VOKRA community and reading the Google reviews and I must say, it's worth the hype and all the praise. Dr. Hans was delightful and attentive to my Cats and gave me a thorough plan and recommendations for my cats. The staff is very personable and professional, I was happy going there and I'll happily keep going.

In January we had two kittens spayed with no wait amid covid insanity and extreme wait times everywhere else in Burnaby and New Westminster. It is now our vet. No pressure for unnecessary shots or unneeded costly procedures.

Love this team! They helped us through a tenuous surgery and tricky amputation wound healing process; our dog healed so well thanks to their guidance. The whole team is very responsive and compassionate. They listen to all our concerns from big to small. Love how the front desk techs really listen to your problems and then the Vets listen and discuss things so clearly with you too.
