Metro Animal Emergency Clinic
Metro Animal Emergency Clinic was established in 1997 and is the only privately-owned veterinary clinic in Nova Scotia to exclusively offer emergency and critical veterinary care. Our member relationships with many veterinary hospitals in the Halifax Regional Municipality and surrounding area allow for experienced and immediate 24/7 emergency and critical veterinary care for pets. We currently serve more than 30+ hospitals in Dartmouth, Halifax, and beyond.

We have a group of very committed shareholders, who all are veterinarians and own their own practices within the HRM, some of which are privately owned as well as corporately owned. Our shareholders wish to lend their strengths to the career development of our veterinarians and all our staff with the opportunity to match interests with the right team.
