NVA Canada

100% dedicated to local veterinary medicine

A medium to large-sized dog with a short dark coat, possibly a pit bull mix, stands confidently at the front of a canoe. The dog is wearing a harness and is attached to a leash, gazing attentively into the distance. The canoe is floating on a calm lake surrounded by trees and tall grass, reflected clearly in the water. The image has a high exposure or desaturated effect, giving it a soft, washed-out appearance with a tranquil atmosphere.

From big cities to small towns, our hospitals are built around the needs of Canadian pets and their families.

Our hospitals are led by Canadian veterinary professionals who bring local expertise, deep community ties, and a passion for exceptional pet care. Looking for partnership? We offer joint venture, partial ownership opportunities in select hospitals.

We support the next generation of Canadian veterinarians through mentorship programs, scholarships, and continuing education, ensuring high-quality care across Canada.

Through partnerships with organizations like Community Veterinary Outreach, we help pets and pet parents across Canada in need get access to life-changing care.

Whether it's a cabin-style hospital in Muskoka, a modern clinic in downtown Toronto, a welcoming coastal practice in the Maritimes, or a mountain-side hospital in British Columbia, our hospitals reflect the unique Canadian communities they serve.

A dark tabby cat with distinct black and grey stripes sits by a window, gazing intently outside. The cat wears a black collar with a small bell and a tag, its ears perked forward and whiskers extended in alert curiosity. Sunlight streams in, softly illuminating the cat’s face and the window frame, while a blurred mix of green and yellow hues outside hints at trees or a garden. The overall atmosphere is calm and contemplative.

Your passion is helping pets.
Our passion is helping you.

We understand your dedication to animals because we feel the same way. Our network was created by a veterinarian who saw the opportunity to give other doctors the tools to pursue their vision for medical excellence. His firsthand experience inspired a collaboration opportunity you won’t find anywhere else.

We champion you and your community.

We support what’s important to you. You play a special role in your community, serving pets and families and employing local people. We value and uphold your hospital’s name, team and practices.

Our hospitals are highly engaged in local giving, from working with rescue groups to sponsoring special events that matter to their doctors and staff.

At NVA Canada, we champion our communities by caring for the whole person. We offer our teams a range of CE curriculum, virtual learning opportunities, and are setting a new standard with industry-leading benefits that include mental health and long-term retirement planning resources.


We provide support and opportunities for collaboration

We work with our partner hospitals to support their individual goals and secure important resources to match their needs and vision. Doctors and staff can rest assured that they’re poised to offer pets and their families the best medical outcomes possible.

Our teams also enjoy the chance to network and cross-collaborate with other NVA professionals across Canada. Community gatherings, with powerful speakers, innovative vendor presentations, and knowledge sharing, are held every year bringing together our local leaders to connect and grow, together.
