Services
Because of the shorter lifespan of our pets, we stress the importance of an annual physical examination. Thorough check-ups and preventive care can help your pet avoid serious health problems. We offer a wide range of veterinary services to keep your companions feeling their best. Diagnostic and Therapeutic Services: Our hospital is equipped to provide diagnostic and therapeutic services to care for your pet's complete health care needs.
Except in emergency cases, an appointment must be made in order to see the veterinarian. This allows ample time for all patients and scheduled surgical procedures. Emergency cases will always receive top priority, which makes the occasional appointment delay inevitable. Please understand that we do make a sincere attempt to see each patient on time.
We are a proud member of the American Association of Feline Practitioners. The AAFP improves the health and welfare of cats by supporting high standards of practice, continuing education, and scientific investigation. As a member practice, we have taken the steps necessary to elevate the standard of care given to our feline patients, to help build productive relationships with our cat owners which will result in improved care.
Here are the answers to some questions that we commonly receive. If you have additional questions that aren't covered here, please feel free to contact us. Payment is required at the time of service. If you would like to arrange financing, we work with a company called Medicard, which offers finance plans for medical procedures.

So far so good, friendly with excellent communication and very transparent, fair price. The vet came after a first examination to give me an overview and asked me couple of questions before he does the vaccines. I was very happy to see that the vet came to talk to me since I couldnt be in the exam room with my kitty, decided to make this place my kitty vet for now on. I even got welcomed the first time by that lovely kitty, and she kept me company while waiting š. Got a follow up call the next day to see if all was well. I was impressed by there follow up and transpatency. Thank you to the team

They got me in the same day I called which was such a relief. Their lobby is quiet which made my cat less anxious about travelling and being at the vet. The vet techs were kind and the vet was very gentle with my cat. The vet also very transparently laid out my options and the costs of those options for my cat, which I appreciated knowing upfront. This will be my regular vet from now on.

Absolutely phenomenal! Dr. Deyoung and her staff have been nothing but great when it comes to my Staffie mix. They take their time explaining everything, donāt pressure you into expensive medications/procedures, very reasonably priced, are beyond patient with my usually uncooperative chunky boy, and donāt discriminate breeds. Offer great solutions to every health problem weāve had so far (including a very scary issue over the summer - got a same-day appointment and was resolved within a couple of days). You can tell they genuinely do care about the pets that come in as well as their owners

Be warned - this IS the most expensive vet in HRM. If you think you are paying for experienced vets, you're not. Here is an example - my cat needs a cardiac ultrasound. The ONLY Dr. who does this in the maritimes (Dr. Rist) charges $350. Bedford HWY charges the customer an ADDITIONAL $150 - for "admin" fees. Other vets charge between $50-75 additional to cover the cost of renting a room for an hour. The exact same doctor - the exact same service.
Bedford HWY also charges $25 per pet to trim their nails with the purchase of an $85 "check up" - I called 5 other vet clinics, and they offer this service
