Calgary Pet Wellness and Spay & Neuter Clinic

What Calgary Pet Wellness and Spay & Neuter Clinic does

Calgary Pet Wellness and Spay & Neuter Clinic is a single-location full-service veterinary hospital established in 2013 in the Erinwoods neighborhood of SE Calgary, Alberta. The clinic's core offering is surgical sterilization (spay and neuter), positioned alongside general wellness services including wellness exams, vaccinations, microchipping (provided free at the time of surgery), in-clinic bloodwork, nutrition counselling, parasite prevention, senior wellness, and end-of-life care. Dental procedures and radiographs are explicitly excluded from the service menu. The clinic operates a direct-to-consumer model: appointments are booked by phone or online request, surgeries are accepted on a first-come, first-serve walk-in basis (drop-off 7:30am-8:30am, pick-up 3:00-5:00pm), and payment is collected at the time of service via cash, debit, or credit card with no payment plans offered. Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed, though customer testimonials explicitly emphasize affordability as a differentiator.

The clinic is staffed by three veterinarians (Dr. Laina Knorr with a feline medicine specialty; Dr. Jazmeen Suleman with emergency/urgent care experience; Dr. Maddy Kuan with high-volume spay/neuter surgical expertise) supported by a Practice Manager who is a Registered Veterinary Technician, an additional RVT, a client communications coordinator, and several veterinary assistants, totaling approximately 15 team members per the company website. Technology is limited to standard veterinary medical equipment and in-clinic laboratory services; no proprietary software, integrations, APIs, or AI/ML capabilities are disclosed. Distribution is primarily in-person at the 3559 52nd St SE clinic, supplemented by a third-party (ClientVantage) online storefront selling Hills, Purina, and Royal Canin pet food and over-the-counter pharmaceuticals. The clinic maintains mutual community partnerships with six rescue organizations (Pawsitive Match Rescue Foundation, Feline Rescue Foundation of Alberta, Canadian Animal Task Force, Cats Home Foundation, Calgary Animal Rescue Society, and Animal Rescue Foundation), supporting subsidized services and serving as a referral channel.
