POLICIES

• We aim to provide the best possible veterinary and health care to our patients. We consider pets to be family members and clients to be our guests.
• Major emphasis is placed upon preventative health care and nutrition.
• We take a special interest in behavioural problems.
• Examinations and surgeries are by appointment. We try to see our clients as close to their appointment time as possible, but sometimes delays occur due to emergencies. Thank you for understanding.
• Please feel free to discuss fees before services are rendered. Payment is due at the time of service. Cash, Visa, Mastercard, American Express, and Interac are accepted.
• For everyone's comfort and safety, please have your dog on a leash and your cat in a kennel or suitable carrier. If your dog is very excitable in the clinic or does not get along well with other animals, please have your pet wait in the car while you report in with a receptionist.

The doctors at WinRose examine all species of animals and provide diagnostic, surgical, and therapeutic procedures for your pet. The doctors at WinRose are among the most experienced in preventative health care and the treatment of exotic pets. They consult with each other on hospitalized and complex cases.

Veterinary Assistants at WinRose are experienced in pet animal management, behaviour, nutrition, and dog training. They will discuss these aspects with you as appropriate. The team members assist with dentistry, in surgery, laboratory tests, taking and developing radiographs, monitoring anaesthetics, preparing prescriptions and administering treatments. Each of the team members is a pet owner and all are concerned and involved with the comfort and nursing of our patients.

The doctors and staff regularly attend continuing education conferences and seminars and read veterinary journals in order to keep informed about the latest developments in animal health. We are particularly concerned with patient comfort.

Our team members constantly keep the cages and runs clean. We maintain a large supply of blankets and towels (many thanks to those clients who donate these!) and a wide variety of pet foods. Special needs are met as required.

HOURS

WinRose Animal Hospital has extended hours for client convenience. Pets may be admitted for vaccination or examination while you are at work. We will phone you with our findings.

If your pet has an emergency, one of our veterinarians is usually available to advise and deal with the emergency. Phone the clinic, the recording will inform you of the relevant number to contact.
