Where Fantastic Pets Find Fantastic Care
Animal healthcare as unique as your fantastical fur children
Our hospital has 3 separate divisions!
The funds collected in our traditional clinic help support our work with animal rescue organizations, as well as our low-income division.
Notice to Central Island pet owners
We have recently extended our evening hours from Tuesday-Thursday until 10pm
Given the amazing response from the community, we are making this change permanent.
In light of the most recent CIVEH announcement:
We have also decided to remain OPEN FOR OVERNIGHT CARE ON FRIDAY MAY.16 AND SATURDAY MAY.17
This means we will be open from 8am May 16th continuously through to 8am May 18th.
All appointments during this time will be triage-based with priority given to the animals with the most urgent need.
We appreciate all those that have come together to help us help the community - Please have patience with us, as we are new at this
For more details, please contact us today.

Priority for evening appointments will be given to those experiencing urgent concerns
Who we are
(and how we're different)
Our clinic was created to provide veterinary services to animals without access to veterinary care, and we accomplish this by running two separate divisions.
The first is a traditional vet hospital that runs in the same manner as most clinics. Through this division we provide everything from puppy-love appointments to cat dentistry to advanced diagnostics. This is the side of our clinic that most of our clients see and experience, but not everyone knows that there is more to us than first meets the eye...
Our other division is a non-profit clinic dedicated to working with animals that would not otherwise receive even the most basic of healthcare.
We have 'Pawsitive Care' programs that aim to reduce the cost of vet care for owners experiencing financial hardship, as well as 'Rescue Vet' programs that partner with local animal rescue organizations to care for surrendered, stray, feral, and otherwise unowned animals who are trying to find their fur-ever homes.

Thank you to everyone who continues to work with us to help us in our journey toward increasing veterinary accessibility! This includes animal rescue organizations, local non-profit and traditional vet clinics, industry partners, and individual community members.
All of our programs are based on volunteer work and donations from the community.
We could not provide these services without your support
FBVS is now using Co-Vet to enhance the quality and efficiency of our medical records.
***Please let us know when booking your appointment if you do not feel comfortable being recorded.
Co-Vet is an AI software program that records consultations and translates them into medical notes. It has been shown to save at least two hours of administrative work everyday for vets! This helps to reduce feelings of burnout, and allows vets more time to focus on their patients. It's a complete game changer for the entire vet team!
