We know the walk-in fee creates a wait-and-see approach in veterinary medicine, which is why we've replaced the exam fee with a manageable monthly membership.

Frequently Asked Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
Where are you located?
Our inaugural location is located at 561 Brant Street in Burlington, ON, right beside the No Frills.
What is membership-based care?
We've replaced the walk-in fee, otherwise known as the physical examination fee, with a manageable monthly membership fee. The membership fee provides exceptional value (it pays for itself if you see us more than once per year), and disperses the cost of care into smaller monthly payments.
Do I need a membership to book an appointment?
We believe our best value comes through our membership, where our team can provide proactive, ongoing support for your pet’s health at member prices. Even if you are not a member, we will always provide your pets with exemplary care and attention, at non-member prices. Our clients find that our membership pays for itself in both value and peace of mind. See our pricing page for more details!
What are your cancellation policies for monthly and annual memberships?
Our memberships are a 12-month commitment, designed to give your pet consistent, relationship-based care throughout the year. Annual Membership (paid in full upfront): If you’re on a single-pet plan and your pet passes away within the first six months, we’ll cancel your membership and refund the unused months. If the loss occurs after month six, no refund is provided. You can upgrade to add more pets at any time, but downgrades are not available mid-term. Monthly Membership (billed monthly, 12-month commitment): Our monthly membership is designed to help you pay for your annual membership in 12 payments. If your pet passes away and you’re on a single-pet plan, we’ll cancel your membership at the end of that billing month. No refunds or fee adjustments are made for downgrades.
What is your cancellation and refund policy?
An annual member can cancel at any time and receive a prorated refund (equal to the balance owing on an annual membership).
What is a team-based approach to medicine?
At Novel, our Registered Veterinary Technicians (RVTs) are equipped with the knowledge and skills to support wellness and minor illness appointments alongside Veterinarian oversight and support.
