Alicia Jimmy

Veterinary Assistant

I was inspired to enter the veterinary field by my late dog that was attacked by a cougar. As I cleaned her wounds and administered medications, I decided that this was something I wanted to do. I graduated from the VIU Animal Care Aide Program in 2009. I enjoy being a part of surgical procedures and monitoring animals while they are under anesthetic. What I love most about my job is being a part of animals' lives and helping veterinarians and technicians ensure our patients' health and comfort.

Dear Clients,

With recent changes to restrictions on businesses, we are pleased to advise that effective May 15, 2020 some 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).

3. OPERATING HOURS

We are OPEN with the following hours:

Monday to Friday: 8:30 am - 5:00 pm
Saturday & Sunday: Closed
