New Clients

Thank you for considering our hospital as your provider of veterinary services. We are dedicated to maintaining the health of your pet and look forward to many future years.

Although we are a new hospital Dr. Steven Nicholson is well known on Cape Breton Island. He is also one of the few veterinarians that examine pocket pets and exotic animals including birds and reptiles.

Dr. Steven Nicholson wants to invite you to be part of the family. This is a new hospital and we unfortunately will need to restrict the number of pets that he can provide exceptional care for. We will be adding more doctors after we are open to join the current family.

You can apply to be a member of our family by completing an online questionnaire and sending your pet’s medical records.

Veterinary Service with Courtesy & Respect!

As a new client of our Veterinary Hospital in Cape Breton, you can expect our full attention to your pets’ needs. Our service will be provided with courtesy and respect.

When you arrive for your appointment, you will be greeted warmly by one of our family members, and we will usher you into an examination room as soon as we have one available. Our goal is to see all of our clients and patients on time, and although we have contingencies for emergencies, there will be times where the unexpected will create delays. We will ensure these are minimized as much as possible.

You will normally see a Veterinary Technician first who will take a history, and gather some data for the doctor. A veterinarian will see you next, examine your pet, answer your questions and plan further diagnostics or treatment as necessary. You will normally see the Technician again to wrap things up, and she will provide you with further educational information and answer routine wellness and care questions for you. Our client care specialists will handle billing and schedule any needed follow up.
