A Local, Independent Halifax Vet Hospital

Welcoming New Patients

On Your Appointment, You’ll…

» Secure your pet with veterinary care awarded for “Outstanding Clinical Competence & Extraordinary Compassion” – The Atlantic Veterinary College.

» Have your all questions and concerns well listened to and understood.

» Get clear, thorough, helpful answers.

» Address your exact needs.

» Hear all your options.

» Discuss recommendations, solutions and preventions from two decades of seeing what works.

» Focus on facts if diagnostics are needed – always avoiding uninformative tests by proceeding incrementally toward most likely causes.

» Always receive transparent pricing.

After Your Appointment…

You’ll know of a hospital where:

  • Your pet feels at home and receives focused, award-winning care.
  • You receive all the dialogue needed for your own assurances of good sense, practicality and efficacy.

Our Manner of Practice

Opening Viva Vet in 2023, we created a bright, open, welcoming space, gathered a team who shares our values and then set our schedule with due time for you and your pet.

We put that extended time toward excellent care and friendly, informative, empowering dialogue and service that puts you in charge.

An independent hospital, it’s always how we’ll practice.
