Over the past decade, the veterinary profession has evolved dramatically. The demand for services and care that once resided solely in universities has grown exponentially. Along with this desire for increasingly progressive care, comes a prime responsibility for the specialty centre: educating both pet owners and veterinarians about what possibilities exist. Consequently, we feel it is imperative that we become not only a place of healing but also a centre for continuing education.

In addition, we believe that great communication with the referring veterinarian and pet owner is crucial. The nature of what we do often creates deep emotion as well as financial impact. Yet through timely, clear and consistent communication we can enable pet owners and referral veterinarians alike to perceive the value of what we do, and to view us as an extension of your practice.

VCA Canada Central Victoria Veterinary Hospital strives to achieve all of these ideals. Our talented staff of doctors and veterinary technicians are available and accessible to you 24/7. We hope the services we provide and the hospitality we extend will demonstrate how we feel about pets, pet owners and referring veterinarians.

We are grateful to live and work in Victoria and committed to being a veterinary emergency and specialty centre of excellence that you can count on. We hope your clients thank you for referring them here. And we thank you for your continued confidence and trust.
