🐾 November is Pet Diabetes Awareness Month! 🩸🐱🐶

Did you know diabetes is becoming more common in both cats and dogs? Early diagnosis and proper management can make a huge difference in your pet’s health and quality of life.

At Sarnia Veterinary Urgent Care, we’re equipped to diagnose and monitor diabetes accurately with:
✅ Blood glucose monitoring
✅ Comprehensive blood chemistry panels
✅ Urine analysis
✅ Fructosamine testing (to assess long-term glucose control)

For our feline friends, diabetes can be tricky, cats often hide their symptoms until the disease has progressed. That’s why regular screening and expert care are so important. If your cat is drinking or urinating more than usual, losing weight, or seems more tired, it’s time for a check-up.

🐾 Why choose us?
We offer same-day diagnostic testing, gentle handling for anxious pets, and a experienced veterinarian who understands the nuances of feline diabetes.

If your pet is drinking more water, urinating frequently, or losing weight despite eating, give us a call today. Let’s keep them healthy and happy!

👻 Halloween can be scary fun but not all treats and tricks are pet-friendly!
Here are a few spooky reminders from Sarnia Veterinary Urgent care to keep your furry friends safe tonight:

🐾 Keep candy out of paw’s reach, chocolate and xylitol can be toxic.
🕯️ Watch the decorations, pets can chew cords or knock over candles.
🎭 Costume check! Make sure your pet can breathe, see, and move comfortably.
🚪 Secure your doors, frequent visitors and costumes can spook pets into escaping.

💜 If your pet accidentally gets into something they shouldn’t, call us right away, we’re here for you (no tricks, just care!).

We’re proud to introduce the heart behind Sarnia Veterinary Urgent Care, Dr. Balreet Sidhu! 🩺🐾

He moved to Canada in 2017 and began his licensing exams in 2018. Since 2019, he has worked as an emergency and locum veterinarian in Manitoba and the Lambton region. He has trained alongside several board-certified specialists, including Dr. Bruce Grahn (Professor and former Head ophthalmology WVCM, Saskatoon) , Dr. Chris Bell (President CVMA- Equine and Canine sports medicine and surgery), Dr. Hagen (Board certified veterinary Surgeon, Manitoba), and Dr. Lea Stogdale (Internal Medicine specialist, Winnipeg), shaping his skills and career along the way. He enjoys practicing both Emergency and Wellness veterinary medicine.

Dr. Sidhu holds a BVSc & AH and a Master’s degree in Veterinary Surgery and Radiology, bringing advanced knowledge and skill to every patient who walks through our doors.

With a passion for urgent and emergency care, Dr. Sidhu is dedicated to providing fast, compassionate, and high-quality treatment, from routine wellness visits to complex surgical and diagnostic cases.

💙 His goal?
To bring state-of-the-art veterinary medicine to Sarnia and ensure every pet receives the care they deserve when it matters most.

When he’s not in the clinic, Dr. Sidhu enjoys spending time learning about new veterinary advancements, mentoring the team, and spending quality time with his children Arnaaz, Baaz and Stark (his adorable Pomeranian).
