Our proud team includes:

  • six registered veterinary technologists, one veterinary technologist and
  • three veterinary assistants

At Princess Animal Hospital ....

  • We use ultrasound on-site. This allows us to see inside your pet’s chest and abdomen, without them having to go through surgery.

  • We use telemedicine, which give us access to world-recognized specialists who will interpret your pet’s radiographs, ultrasound images and other medical data within 20 minutes of receiving this data by email.

  • We are the first hospital in Eastern Canada to invest in the equipment and training to perform laparoscopic surgeries through a single 10mm incision. Whenever possible, we try to perform our surgeries laparoscopically to minimize your pet's post-operative pain.

  • Our in-house laboratory enables us to analyze your pet’s blood immediately. This allows a faster diagnosis and more accurate treatment through follow-up monitoring.

  • We believe that your pet’s liver and kidney function should be evaluated before your pet receives an anesthetic. This is considered standard medical practice for humans, in countries where governments haven't reduced hospital funding.

  • All pets having a general anesthetic receive intravenous fluids. This reduces the risk to your pet. It also allows us to treat a medical emergency quickly if it was to occur during a surgery.

  • All pets having an anesthetic are monitored by a Registered Veterinary Technologist. This includes monitoring your pet’s heart with an ECG, and checking your pet’s blood pressure.

  • All pets recovering from surgery are given pain medication to minimize their pain upon waking. Additional pain medication is sent home with your pet.

  • All pets recovering from surgery wake up on warmed oat bags and blankets.

  • Our opthalmology equipment can accurately test the pressure in your pet’s eyes. Elevated or decreased pressure in your pet’s eyes is common and painful.

  • Our veterinarians attend a minimum of 35 hours per year of continuing education.

  • We schedule 30 minute appointments for sick pets, new clients, and new pets.

  • Veterinary technologists are available to discuss your pet’s care after your appointment.
