​
​RAPS Animal Hospital was created to service the community. We deliver affordable animal healthcare in a region where the cost of living is very high. RAPS Animal Hospital does this by:
  1. By having a mission for “affordable healthcare” that guides our activities.
  2. Pricing our services to break even rather than for profit.
  3. Investing heavily on in-house diagnostic resources to keep costs down for patients
  4. Utilizing volunteers for non-essential services to keep staff costs down
  5. Relying on generous tax deduction donations by the public for the purchase of diagnostic and other equipment
  6. Making specialized arrangements with suppliers to keep hospital costs down
  7. Running a Thrift Store in support of the RAPS Animal Hospital to subsidize the operations
We recognize the cost of living challenges of working professionals in the Lower Mainland, which is one of the most expensive regions to live in Canada. Therefore, the RAPS Animal Hospital is providing targeted discounts to help specified groups afford the animal healthcare they need. Please visit our VIP page to get your time limited VIP card.
