Welcome to WAVES

Founded to provide emergency and specialty care to our furry friends and their families, WAVES is a locally operated veterinary hospital on Vancouver Island’s west shore. Our 9,700 sq. ft. hospital is equipped with state-of-the-art advanced diagnostic equipment and board-certified specialists who work around the clock to ensure your pets live a healthy and joyous life. 

We provide a wide array of services for our clients and patients including full-time critical care and specialized care such as internal medicine and neurology. The hospital is staffed 24 hours a day throughout the week and has a fully digital diagnostic unit. At WAVES, we have everything in-house to help our furry patients and their families through difficult times. With our mission to provide the highest quality of veterinary care, you can rest assured your furry pals are in good hands.

At WAVES, we love both our clients and our patients and are determined to provide the best possible care to all that come through our doors.

The staff at WAVES are working very hard to see your pets in a timely manner. During these difficult times, we have seen a tremendous increase in cases and as a result you may experience longer than normal wait times. We are doing everything we can to provide the best care possible for all patients. 

We understand that things can be very stressful and that Veterinary bills can be quite expensive, however, WAVES will not tolerate abusive, derogatory, bullying behaviour towards any of our staff members. This includes yelling, swearing, threats of violence, as well as demeaning and abusive behaviour. You will be asked to leave and your pet will not be seen.
