Welcoming New Patients
Zero Offsite
Management
None of our oversight or directives come from offsite or out of province. Proud to be locally owned and operated, Viva Vet is a non-corporate option with all our initiatives originating here in direct response to the exact needs of you and your pet, and under the direction of our onsite veterinary founder awarded for “outstanding clinical competence and extraordinary compassion.” You and your pet receive “friendly-neighbourhood” service and care with a focus derived solely here in Halifax and on your most effective, practical and straight forward solutions.
Non-Rushed
Appointments
We don’t abide pet-parents lacking information or knowledge of all your options. Total clarity and education count among our deliverables. Locally owned, we set our own appointment schedule, which we gladly don’t push for maximum output. You get time and dialogue for your own total command over your pet’s fully informed care. You’re in charge of a highly qualified, experienced, compassionate team giving you the dialogue to help you make choices that work best for both you and your pet.
Stress
Free
We insisted on a space not taxing on the senses for pets or for the people who give their all to their care. For pets, it comes down to lots of natural light and minimal boundaries so they always have the confidence of knowing their bearings. Happily that bright open flow works perfectly for people too. So, finding a place with tons of windows, we sourced a veterinary architect to cascade the light throughout with efficient, effective design. The result is a space that delights pet-parents with the calm and assurance they witness in their pets. You both feel relaxed and at home not only in an exam room, but also in back in our treatment areas.
