Your Trusted Calgary Veterinarians for Pet Care
Fish Creek Pet Hospital was founded in December 2005 with a vision to provide comprehensive veterinary care, including preventative medicine, routine and emergency surgery, and advanced diagnostics. In 2014, we relocated to a larger, custom-built facility in Midnapore to better serve our growing client base. Our team of experienced veterinarians and support staff is dedicated to delivering high-quality care with compassion and a focus on enhancing the quality of life for pets and their owners. We welcome both direct clients and referrals from other veterinary practices for emergency or extended care.Our Healthy Start Program offers puppies and kittens a structured plan for vaccinations, checkups, and spay/neuter services, ensuring they receive essential care while providing value to pet owners. We prioritize transparency, flexibility, and accessibility, with no upfront fees or contracts for our programs. Our commitment to the community is reflected in our extended hours, open daily from 8:00 AM to 10:00 PM, and our willingness to assist with urgent pet care needs, including wildlife rehabilitation in collaboration with local organizations.
