IMMUNIZATION AND WELLNESS CARE | Our primary goal in veterinary medicine is to prevent illness whenever possible. The time and effort invested in wellness programs has rewards for both pets and owners. Our wellness programs are designed specifically for your pet and include: comprehensive physical exam; internal parasite testing; heartworm and flea control; vaccination program; and specialized blood tests for all life stages. |
EMERGENCY AND CRITICAL CARE | In any emergency, seconds count. Emergency care is offered at our hospital during regular hospital hours. After hours, we use the services of the Halton-Wentworth Emergency Clinic located at 505 King Street West, Hamilton (On King Street between Margaret St. & Locke St.) They are open Monday through Thursday 6 p.m. to 8 a.m. Weekends from Friday 6 p.m. through to 8 a.m. Monday morning. Holidays: 24 hour service. Phone 905-529-1004 |
HOUSE CALLS A veterinarian is available most weekdays to do routine and emergency house calls. |
DENTAL CARE Advanced professional dental care is provided by Dr. Douglas A. Hall. A professional examination and assessment is the best way to determine if your pet has dental disease. If needed, Dr. Hall will do a scaling and polishing of your pet's teeth to remove plaque, tartar and staining - just as your dentist or hygenist might do when you have a dental appointment. In severe cases, your pet may need an extraction of loose, infected or broken teeth. For these procedures to be safe and painless for your pet, they will be given a general anaesthetic. |
INTERNAL MEDICINE | We provide veterinary care in all areas of internal medicine, including: Cardiology, Ophthalmology, Neurology, Dermatology, Gastroenterology, Oncology, Endocrinology, etc. We are able to refer patients to specialists and in some cases, have specialists come to the hospital. |
NUTRITIONAL COUNSELING | Our prescription veterinary diets provide a range of growth, maintenance, and therapeutic foods for the lifetime health of your pet. Our trained veterinary team is available to help you choose the right diet for your pet to keep it happy, healthy and active. |
MICROCHIPPING | Microchips have helped reunite thousands of pets with their families. We offer the most widely-used microchip products to increase the chances of a safe recovery. |
RADIOLOGY | Radiology ( X-rays ) help our veterinarians evaluate musculo-skeletal, cardiovascular, gastrointestinal, reproductive and urinary systems. |
ULTRASOUND | This non-invasive, state-of-the-art technology uses sound waves to painlessly examine specific internal organs, primarily the heart and abdominal organs. Pregnancy exams are also available. |
PAIN MANAGEMENT | Veterinary patients feel pain and discomfort under the same circumstances as people do. We know that recognizing and alleviating pain in animals is the essence of good patient care. |
FULLY STOCKED PHARMACY | We stock a wide range of veterinary drugs for companion and farm animals. |
SURGERY | Our surgical team offers advanced surgical techniques to perform routine surgeries such as spaying, neutering, front declawing & hernia repairs and major surgery such as orthopedics to repair broken bones, torn ligaments or dislocated joints. All patients are carefully screened for safety (with the option of having pre-anesthetic blood profiles done), and anesthetics are specifically tailored to your pet. Intravenous fluids are also offered as an additional safety feature. Surgical services and facilities include: fully trained veterinary and technical staff, to ensure the safest, most efficient procedures for your pet; fully equipped surgery room; sterilization equipment; respiratory and oxygen saturation monitors; and intensive post surgical care. |
LABORATORY TESTING |
Our laboratory is equipped to perform a variety of diagnostic testing procedures. The ability to test your pet’s blood, urine and fecal samples in our lab allows us to treat your pets more quickly and efficiently, as opposed to sending samples to an outside lab and waiting for results.

GROOMING | Grooming is important to your dog's or cat's health and happiness. Melanie Pattison is our in house I.P.G. Board Certified Groomer and can provide a professional grooming for your dog or cat. Treat your pet to a luxurious bath. Our special, cleansing baths remove dirt, debris and that doggie pet odor – your pet will feel fresh and revitalized and will smell great! If scratching is a problem, our medicated baths contain soothing agents that help stop the itching. Services also include nail trims and ear cleaning. |
LARGE ANIMAL FARM SERVICE Mobile Service: Our team of veterinarians travel from farm to farm providing 24 hour emergency service and preventative health care to farm animals. |
CANINE MASSAGE THERAPY Lisa Colborne R.V.T is also a registered canine masseuse. She has completed extensive schooling and practical training in many aspects of massage and hydrotherapy. Please contact Lisa at our hospital if you have any questions. |
BEHAVIORAL MEDICINE Illness doesn't always have a physical cause. Our staff can help determine the cause of behavioural disorders and then develop a treatment regimen for the client and patient. |
