About Us

Mission Statement

We will work hard to provide a partnership between you and your pet and our veterinary health care team. Informed, current and ethical care is extended to all of our clients and their pets. We will honour the practice of veterinary medicine with our professionalism, courtesy and respect of people for their pets, staff members and other veterinarians. We will continue to learn and to teach, so that our staff is well trained, and our veterinarians can present the best treatment options available for your pet, in open, honest dialogue with you. In short, we have made veterinary medicine, our life work, because we love the animals that are given to our care.


The Canadian Veterinarian’s Oath

Being admitted into the profession of veterinary medicine, and possessing an unyielding sense of honor, I solemnly swear to my colleagues and to society, that I will use my scientific knowledge and skills for the protection of animal health and welfare, the relief of animal suffering, the promotion of public health and the advancement of veterinary and medical knowledge.

I will practice my profession conscientiously and with dignity, and in keeping with the principles of veterinary medical ethics.

I will strive, as a lifelong obligation, to continue to improve my professional knowledge and competence and to maintain the highest moral standards for myself and the profession
