Our team continues to be here for you and your cherished pets. We are OPEN and are now able to provide a wide range of services. To learn more about the changes we have implemented in response to COVID-19 and what to expect during your next visit, click here.
I graduated from Maritime Business College in July 2018 and wrote and passed my VTNE in December of the same year. I completed my externship at a veterinary hospital in Halifax before joining the team at Spryfield Animal Hospital. I chose this field not only for my love of animals but also for the medical aspects it offers. Being a veterinary technician means so much more than caring for sick animals. It's about the everyday routines and procedures from spays/neuters and vaccines to taking x-rays and aiding the doctor in a diagnosis of a possible disease. I enjoy working in the lab creating blood-smears and glancing at ear cytologies for bacteria and parasites. I also enjoy aiding in surgery, whether it be monitoring or prepping a patient. I love meeting the patients and their loving families and the people I work with are amazing and incredibly supportive.
Fun fact about myself is that I have a Bachelor's Degree in Fine Arts (Visual).
With recent changes to restrictions on businesses, we are pleased to advise that effective June 5, 2020 the restrictions on veterinary practices have been lifted. Based on these changes, below are some important updates to our operating policies.
1. WE CAN NOW SEE ALL CASES BY APPOINTMENT ONLY
This includes vaccines, wellness exams, blood work, heartworm testing, spays and neuters, dental services, and more!
2. SAFETY MEASURES TO KEEP EVERYONE SAFE
Continue our "closed waiting room" policy to protect our clients and staff. When you arrive, please remain outside the hospital and use your cell phone to call us. We will take a history of your pet's health and discuss any concerns. A staff member will then meet you outside to bring your pet into the hospital for an examination. The Veterinarian will call you to discuss the recommended treatment plan. After your appointment, a staff member will return your pet to you outside, and take care of any needed medications and payment.
Continue the use of credit cards as the preferred payment method.
Continue with curbside pickup of food and medication (unless you have used our online store and are having your order delivered directly to your home). To place an order through our online store, visit our website and click on "Online Store".
3. OPERATING HOURS
Starting June 8, we are available to serve you and your pets during the following hours:
Monday to Friday: 7:30 am - 8:00 pm*
Saturday: 8:00 am - 2:00 pm Sunday: CLOSED
*On weekdays we will be closed for 1 hour in the afternoon in order to catch up on communications with our clients. This is a temporary measure. Thank you for your understanding.
Thank you for your patience and understanding and we look forward to seeing you and your furry family members again!
