COMING SOON
Veterinary care that meets you where you are.
Esquimalt’s new privately-owned veterinary hospital offering flexible, compassionate, and accessible care for pets and the people who love them. Opening Fall 2026.
About Us
Fireweed Veterinary Hospital is a locally-owned, small-animal veterinary clinic opening soon in Esquimalt. The clinic will offer full-service veterinary care, including preventative care, medical care, surgical care, dental care, behavioural care and senior pet care.
We are proud to be a values-based clinic, which means that every decision we make is based on our core values. Everyone who walks through our doors is called upon to uphold these core values and is fully welcomed into our community.
We are extremely fortunate to live and work within the Traditional Territories of the xʷsepsəm or Kosapsum (Esquimalt) Nation and Songhees Nation.
Our vision is to fully embrace a ‘community care’ model.
Community care focuses on providing a spectrum of care approach, mitigating barriers to accessing veterinary care and bringing a variety of care options to as many pet-families as possible, despite their financial or personal circumstances.
PREVENTATIVE CARE
We believe that preventative care, such as annual wellness exams, vaccines and nutritional support is the best way to ensure all pets are happy and healthy.
MEDICAL CARE
We address health concerns through a family-centered approach to ensure that each pet is getting the best treatment plan.
SKIN HEALTH & ALLERGY SUPPORT
If your pet is having skin issues, is itchy or has ear infections, they might very well have allergies and we can help!
SURGICAL CARE
We try to make all surgeries a little less scary – from the routine spays and neuters to the more unexpected and complex surgeries, we offer pre-operative guidance and detailed post-operative care instructions. Our team is highly skilled to care for your pet while they are with us for their surgery.
SENIOR PET SUPPORT
We love to support pets through their golden years and provide in-depth guidance to help you manage the changes that are to come as your pet ages.
DENTAL CARE
We understand that a healthy, pain-free mouth leads to a happy pet! Dental care is one of our priorities so please do not hesitate to ask about our oral health services.
PET FAMILY SUPPORT
We know first-hand the ups and downs that come with having a pet and we want to be there for you. Whether that is with our in-clinic counsellor or with a community partner, we want to make sure your entire pet family feels supported.
PET BEHAVIOUR SUPPORT
Our goal is for you and your pet to have a compassionate partnership and we know pet behaviour plays a huge part in this. We can offer medical and training support through our team in-clinic and our community partners.
