Specialist Care at North Vancouver Pet Hospital

Some procedures need a specialist. Rather than sending you across town, we bring specialists in to us, so your pet is seen by an expert in surroundings they already know, with the team who knows their history.

The specialists we bring in cover endoscopy, specialist ultrasound, specialist radiographs and specialist surgery. Your veterinarian will tell you if your pet needs one, and we arrange it from there.

Endoscopy is a minimally invasive way to look inside your pet without open surgery, using a small camera passed through a natural opening or a tiny incision. It is commonly used for gastrointestinal and respiratory problems, and for retrieving swallowed objects.

Specialist procedures vary a great deal from case to case, so we give you a written estimate before anything is booked and nothing goes ahead until you have seen it. If you think your pet may need specialist care, call us on (604) 770-4346.
