Our Calgary Vet Services

Nutritional Counseling

What your pet eats makes a huge difference in their overall health. At West Springs Veterinary Hospital, we offer nutrition counseling designed to create a diet plan that fits your pet’s exact needs.

From puppies needing the right food to grow, to senior cats requiring extra support, and dogs working on weight management, we’ll help you choose the best options. We consider everything: age, activity level, medical concerns, and even your pet’s food preferences.

We’ll also help you adjust their diet as they move through different stages of life, recommend treats that are both tasty and healthy, and show you how good nutrition can give your pet more energy and help them thrive.

We offer a wide range of therapeutic diets designed to support your pet’s health, whether they are dealing with arthritis, diabetes, or recovering from surgery.

Surgical Care

At West Springs Veterinary Hospital, we know that the idea of surgery for your pet can feel overwhelming. That’s why our team focuses on both safety and compassion, making sure your pet is cared for every step of the way.

Our modern surgical suite is equipped with advanced tools, including monitoring systems and temperature control to keep your pet comfortable. Before any procedure, we run pre-anesthetic blood work and create an anesthesia plan designed specifically for your pet’s needs.

Our surgical care includes:

  • Access to board-certified surgeons for more complex procedures

  • A sterile operating room with the latest equipment

  • Experienced veterinary technicians carefully monitoring vital signs

  • Strong pain management plans to support a smoother recovery

  • Clear guidance and support for you after surgery, so home care feels simple and stress-free

Whether your pet needs a routine spay or neuter or a more advanced operation, our team brings skill, compassion, and the same level of care we’d want for our own pets.

Preventive Wellness & Vaccinations

Keeping pets healthy is easier when we focus on prevention. At West Springs Veterinary Hospital, we design wellness programs tailored to your pet’s age, lifestyle, and unique needs. These plans go beyond a quick checkup to help your pet stay active, comfortable, and protected at every stage of life.

Wellness care may include:

  • Complete nose-to-tail physical exams

  • Parasite testing and prevention (worms, heartworm, fleas, ticks)

  • Customized vaccination schedules built around your pet’s daily life

  • Routine bloodwork to catch health changes early

  • Spay and neuter recommendations with helpful package options

For senior pets (7+ years), we suggest checkups every six months. Because pets age much faster than people, these visits let us find and manage issues like arthritis, kidney disease, or metabolic changes before they become serious.

​Pain Management

Pets experience pain just like people, but they’re often very good at hiding it. At West Springs Veterinary Hospital, our team knows how to spot the small signs—like changes in behavior, movement, or body posture—that may point to discomfort.

We create personalized pain management plans that can include:
✔ A mix of safe medications to target pain in different ways
✔ Laser therapy to support healing and reduce inflammation
✔ Joint health supplements for long-term comfort
✔ Simple lifestyle changes to make daily activities easier

From helping pets recover after surgery to managing arthritis or sudden injuries, our goal is always the same: keeping your pet as comfortable and happy as possible.

​Radiology

Because pets can’t tell us where it hurts, finding the source of their pain isn’t always easy. At West Springs Veterinary Hospital, our digital X-ray system helps us look beneath the surface to understand what’s really going on when your dog is limping or your cat stops jumping.

Our X-ray technology is designed with your pet’s safety in mind:

  • Quick digital scans, often finished in just seconds

  • Very low radiation levels, safe even if repeat images are needed

  • Early detection of problems so we can treat them before they get worse

Unlike many human X-ray experiences that feel cold and distant, we make sure your pet feels supported and calm. Our team stays with them throughout the process, giving comfort and reassurance every step of the way.
