We complement the care of primary care veterinarians
We are a fully-integrated, full-service specialty, emergency and critical care veterinary hospital; we provide specialty and emergency services to primary care veterinarians and their clients and patients.
We do not offer the wellness care, vaccines, or routine medical, dental or surgical procedures that primary care veterinarians normally perform. We provide care when pets have an emergency/critical condition, require specialty diagnostics such as CT or MRI, require the expertise of a board-certified veterinary specialist, or require specialty treatments such as mechanical ventilation.
If your patient or pet has an emergency, BBVSH is here 24/7/365 to help; walk-ins are welcome, no referral is necessary. If your patient or pet might benefit from a specialty consultation, we encourage a referral to a specialist at Boundary Bay Specialty Veterinary Hospital.
Being an emergency and critical care hospital, we are equipped and staffed – 24 hours/day, 7 days/week – to deal with any eventuality.
Where we are and who we serve
Boundary Bay’s specialty and emergency critical care animal hospitals are located in Langley, BC and Bellingham, WA. We are proud to serve dog and cat owners located in the following areas:
British Columbia – Vancouver, Surrey, Langley, Coquitlam, Abbotsford, Maple Ridge, Burnaby, North Vancouver, West Vancouver, Vancouver Island, and beyond.
Washington State – Bellingham, Ferndale, Lynden, Mount Vernon, Burlington, Island, San Juan, and Snohomish Counties, and beyond.
