About Our Hospital
Hard Rock Animal Hospital opened its doors on June 6th, 2016. Prior to landing on Third Avenue, Hard Rock was known as Algonquin Boulevard Animal Hospital on, you guessed it, Algonquin Boulevard here in Timmins.
We have 4 full examination/consult rooms, a complete dental suite with x-rays, a double surgery suite, radiography & ultrasound, a dedicated space for our therapeutic laser program, as well as our digital thermal imaging and stance analysis services, an isolation ward, and a private, quiet comfort space for the hard goodbyes.
We’re happy to serve our clients and their animal companions in Timmins, Schumacher, Porcupine, Cochrane, Gogama, Matheson, Iroquois Falls, and surrounding areas!
About Our Schedule
The reality of veterinary medicine in places without convenient access to a staffed 24/7 emergency clinic, is that we must operate as primary care providers as well as simultaneously providing emergency care for severe and life-threatening cases.
We appreciate your patience during these times and would like to assure you, it’s never intentional.
Hospital Policies
We ask that all pets be leashed or kenneled in the clinic, not only to assist in preventing the spread of communicable and zoonotic diseases, but also to mitigate the chances of unfriendly meetings between animals.
For the safety of your pet, other pets in hospital, and our staff, we require all pets coming in for elective surgery to be up to date on their rabies vaccine, and core vaccinations (DA2PP for dogs, FVRCP for cats).
Elective surgery includes spay, neuter, routine dental cleanings, etc. Ask a staff member for clarification if needed.
We require 24 hours notice of appointment cancelations, and 48 hours notice for surgery cancelations. Failure to provide this notice will result in missed appointment/surgery fees.
And while we understand that having a pet at the hospital can be a very stressful situation for all involved, aggressive or abusive behaviour will not be tolerated. There is ZERO TOLERANCE for any form of aggression.
