Veterinary Medical Services in North Surrey
When your dog or cat isn't quite right, having a trusted medical team close by makes a real difference. Our veterinary medical services in North Surrey cover the whole middle ground between routine wellness and surgery: vomiting that won't settle, an ear that suddenly itches, weight that dropped without explanation, a cough that's lingered too long. Most of our diagnostics are in-house at our Fraser Heights clinic, which means most pets leave with a clear plan in one visit. We're open Monday to Friday until 7:00 PM. Call (604) 359-6464 if something feels off.
Internal Medicine for Dogs and Cats in North Surrey
Internal medicine covers concerns that don't have an obvious external cause: vomiting, soft stool, lethargy, weight loss, increased drinking, or a cough that doesn't resolve. The veterinarian works through history, a careful physical exam, and targeted in-house bloodwork, urinalysis, imaging, or cytology to narrow down what's going on. From there we build a care plan with you, in plain language, with a written estimate before anything proceeds.
Skin, Ear, and Eye Care
Itchy skin, recurrent ear discharge, red eyes, and chronic licking are some of the most common reasons dogs and cats come in. We look for the underlying driver, whether that's allergies, an ear infection, a foreign body, dry eye, or a behavioural component. Many of these concerns benefit from cytology done in-house the same day. A focused care plan typically combines topical care, oral support where appropriate, and a follow-up to confirm the issue has resolved.
Chronic Condition Management
Dogs and cats with long-term conditions, such as diabetes, kidney disease, hypothyroidism in dogs, hyperthyroidism in cats, arthritis, heart disease, or chronic gastrointestinal disease, benefit from a steady relationship with a veterinary team that knows them. We build a long-term care plan that includes monitoring bloodwork, weight, mobility, and quality of life. Plans are reviewed regularly because chronic conditions shift over time and the right adjustment at the right moment matters.
Same-Day Urgent Concerns
If your dog or cat suddenly seems unwell during our open hours, we keep urgent slots reserved every day so we can fit you in. Please call ahead at (604) 359-6464 before coming in so we can prepare the team and the exam room. Outside our hours, please contact a 24-hour veterinary facility in the Lower Mainland for urgent support. The front desk is happy to guide you to the nearest option during business hours.
Working Closely with In-House Diagnostics
The medical side of our practice is supported by digital X-ray, ultrasound, endoscopy, in-house bloodwork, cytology, and an oxygen chamber under one roof in Fraser Heights. Most diagnostic answers come back the same day, which means most pets leave with a treatment plan in one visit rather than two or three. When a specialist referral is the right next step, we explain why and coordinate the handoff with our referral partners.
FAQ's
My dog has been vomiting since this morning. Should I bring him in?
Call us at (604) 359-6464. Persistent vomiting in a dog or cat warrants a same-day appointment, especially if it has gone on more than 12 hours or if your pet is also lethargic. We keep urgent slots reserved every day we're open.
Can I get bloodwork done in-house on the same visit?
Yes, in most cases. We run common bloodwork panels in-house at our Fraser Heights clinic, so results are usually available the same day. Specialised panels are sent to an outside laboratory and take longer.
Do you handle chronic conditions like diabetes and kidney disease?
Yes. Dogs and cats with long-term conditions benefit most from a consistent care team. We build a monitoring plan together and review it regularly because chronic conditions shift over time. Most monitoring bloodwork is run in-house.
What if my pet needs a specialist?
When a specialist referral is the right next step, we explain why, share the relevant records, and coordinate the handoff with our specialist referral partners across the Lower Mainland. We continue to act as your pet's primary care team throughout.
