How we can help

Prompt assessment for a sick or injured pet.

At our Summerside clinic, on-site X-rays and in-house blood testing support our veterinarians’ assessment when these tests are appropriate. We explain the findings and options, including referral when your pet needs care beyond what we can provide.

Sudden illness

Vomiting, diarrhea, coughing, appetite changes, lethargy and other new concerns.

Injuries and pain

Limping, wounds, swelling, eye concerns and signs that your pet may be uncomfortable.

Prompt direction

Assessment during clinic hours and referral to a 24-hour hospital when that is the safer choice.

What to expect

Call first so we can guide your next step.

Call ahead when possible

Walk-ins are welcome. Tell us your pet’s symptoms, when they began and whether they are worsening so we can prepare and advise on the safest destination.

Focused assessment

A veterinarian will examine your pet and recommend the most useful next steps.

A clear care plan

We explain the recommended tests, treatment, estimate and follow-up, or emergency referral when needed. Additional treatment beyond the agreed plan requires your approval.

Good to know

When should I go directly to a 24-hour emergency hospital?

Difficulty breathing, collapse, major trauma, uncontrolled bleeding, repeated or prolonged seizures, suspected poisoning, severe abdominal swelling or inability to urinate can be life-threatening. Seek emergency care immediately. If you are unsure during Lakeview’s clinic hours, call us and we will help direct you.

Common questions

Helpful answers before your visit.

Are you open on Sundays?

Yes. Lakeview is open Sunday, 10 a.m.–5 p.m., except statutory holidays. Call (587) 463-9002 to check same-day availability before coming. We are open Monday–Saturday, 8 a.m.–6 p.m.

Do you offer same-day appointments?

Yes. Walk-ins are also welcome during opening hours. Calling ahead is preferred; the team can advise on timing and prepare for your pet. Waiting time depends on medical urgency and the day’s patients. We are open Monday–Saturday, 8 a.m.–6 p.m., and Sunday, 10 a.m.–5 p.m.; closed statutory holidays.

What should I bring for an urgent visit?

Bring medication details, relevant records if they are readily available, and a photo or packaging for any suspected exposure. Tell us when signs began and what your pet is doing now. Do not delay urgent care while searching for paperwork.

Does accepting walk-ins mean my pet will be seen immediately?

Walk-ins are welcome, but an immediate consultation cannot be promised. Patients are assessed according to medical urgency and the clinic’s current workload. Severe or life-threatening symptoms may need direct emergency-hospital care.

Is Lakeview a 24-hour emergency hospital?

No. Lakeview provides urgent assessment during regular clinic hours. Life-threatening concerns after hours should go to a 24-hour veterinary emergency hospital.

Should I call even if I am unsure how serious it is?

Yes. Tell us what you are seeing and our team can help you decide whether to come to Lakeview or seek emergency care elsewhere.

Before your visit

Not sure whether your pet needs urgent care?

Our guides explain warning signs for dog vomiting, dog diarrhea and eye discharge, redness or squinting. For help choosing where to go, see same-day versus 24-hour veterinary care in Edmonton. If your pet is in distress, seek urgent veterinary help immediately.
