⚠️ IMPORTANT OPERATIONAL UPDATE: SUNRISE ANIMAL HOSPITAL
Dear clients, please note that effective November 14, 2026, Sunrise Animal Hospital will be temporarily closing until further notice.
Our commitment to pets, their families, and the community remains unchanged. To help ensure continuity of care, our sister practice, Torbay Road Animal Hospital, will support Sunrise clients and patients during this transition. Your pet's medical records will remain secure and accessible through Torbay Road Animal Hospital, which offers a full range of veterinary services.
• TORBAY ROAD ANIMAL HOSPITAL
As of November 14, veterinary appointments, prescription renewals, medication pickups, food orders and all other veterinary services will be provided by Torbay Road Animal Hospital, located approximately 17 minutes away by car from Sunrise Animal Hospital.
If you would like to transfer your pet's medical records to another veterinary practice, please submit your request by email to Torbay Road at [email protected]. Their team will securely send your pet's records to the veterinary practice of your choice.
• PRESCRIPTION AND FOOD REFILLS
If your pet has an established veterinary-client-patient relationship with Sunrise Animal Hospital (having been seen within the past 12 months) and your previous veterinarian has already approved refills for the year, Torbay Road Animal Hospital will continue to honour those previously approved medication and food refills. Requests for written prescriptions will be reviewed on an individual basis to determine whether a prescription can be provided or whether your pet will need to be examined at Torbay Road Animal Hospital. If you have questions about an upcoming refill, please contact the Torbay Road team directly.
• APPOINTMENTS ALREADY SCHEDULED AT SUNRISE
If your pet already has an appointment scheduled in the coming weeks, we are committed to ensuring continuity of care. A member of our team will contact you before your appointment with the information and support you need to plan your pet's next steps.
• EMERGENCIES
In case of an emergency outside of regular business hours, you may visit Veterinary Specialty Centre of Newfoundland and Labrador (VSCNL), located approximately 4 minutes by car from Sunrise Animal Hospital.
