A Fresh Veterinary Experience

Elbow River Vet Clinic was founded with a clear vision — to create a space where pets receive high-quality veterinary care and pet parents feel connected to the team.

At our clinic, we have built our team and designed our space with intention and care. Recognizing the need for a fresh perspective in the veterinary field, we aim to bring greater transparency and understanding to the diagnostic and treatment processes that your beloved pets may undergo. Our highly experienced team comes from diverse backgrounds, including private practice, corporate environments, and hospital settings, allowing us to offer a wealth of knowledge and expertise. We believe in the power of open communication and collaboration with pet parents, working together to create tailored plans that meet the unique needs of each pet and their family.

Our name is inspired by Calgary’s own Elbow River — a reminder of the natural beauty that surrounds us and the calming, grounding presence we aim to bring into veterinary care.
