Clipboard Clipboard Our Services

Our vision is to fully embrace a ‘community care’ model.

Community care focuses on providing a spectrum of care approach, mitigating barriers to accessing veterinary care and bringing a variety of care options to as many pet-families as possible, despite their financial or personal circumstances.

PREVENTATIVE CARE

We believe that preventative care, such as annual wellness exams, vaccines and nutritional support is the best way to ensure all pets are happy and healthy.

MEDICAL CARE

 We address health concerns through a family-centered approach to ensure that each pet is getting the best treatment plan.

SKIN HEALTH & ALLERGY SUPPORT

If your pet is having skin issues, is itchy or has ear infections, they might very well have allergies and we can help!

SURGICAL CARE

We try to make all surgeries a little less scary – from the routine spays and neuters to the more unexpected and complex surgeries, we offer pre-operative guidance and detailed post-operative care instructions. Our team is highly skilled to care for your pet while they are with us for their surgery.

SENIOR PET SUPPORT

We love to support pets through their golden years and provide in-depth guidance to help you manage the changes that are to come as your pet ages.

DENTAL CARE

We understand that a healthy, pain-free mouth leads to a happy pet! Dental care is one of our priorities so please do not hesitate to ask about our oral health services.

PET FAMILY SUPPORT

We know first-hand the ups and downs that come with having a pet and we want to be there for you. Whether that is with our in-clinic counsellor or with a community partner, we want to make sure your entire pet family feels supported.

PET BEHAVIOUR SUPPORT

Our goal is for you and your pet to have a compassionate partnership and we know pet behaviour plays a huge part in this. We can offer medical and training support through our team in-clinic and our community partners.

Fireweed Community Membership

Our goal at Fireweed Veterinary Hospital is to build community and prioritize ongoing and trusting relationships between our team and your pet family. To honour this goal, we wanted to find a way by which clients feel welcomed and included in our clinic.

This is how the Fireweed Community Membership was born. Our hope with this membership is to grow our community, build trust, prioritize preventative care for all pets and increase awareness and knowledge of the veterinary profession. There is no fee associated with membership.
