About Alma Animal Hospital

Alma Animal Hospital is a locally owned, family-founded veterinary clinic serving dogs and cats in the Dunbar-Southlands community of Vancouver, BC. Located at 3151 Dunbar Street, our hospital was built on a shared commitment to individualized care, honest communication, and a genuine love for animals. Whether your pet needs routine wellness care, diagnostics, surgery, or urgent care during our hours, our team is here to support you and your pet at every stage of life.

A Family Practice Built on Generations of Veterinary Experience

Alma Animal Hospital was founded by father-and-son veterinarians Dr. Parveen Munjal and Dr. Vazul Munjal, who shared a vision to create a modern, community-centered practice rooted in compassion and open communication. Dr. Parveen Munjal has served the Dunbar-Southlands community since 2007, building trusted relationships with pet families through consistent, reliable care. His dedication to clinical excellence and genuine connection with clients laid the foundation for everything Alma represents today. The Munjals created Alma as a welcoming space where every patient is treated with the same care and attention they would give their own pets.

Fresh Training and Modern Veterinary Techniques

Alma Animal Hospital was designed with the next generation of veterinary medicine in mind. Dr. Vazul Munjal recently graduated from the Western College of Veterinary Medicine and brings current training, modern techniques, and a forward-thinking approach to practice. Dr. Vazul is currently completing a small animal rotating internship at a specialty practice in New York City, gaining advanced clinical experience before joining the Alma team. Together, the Munjals bring a combination of decades of community experience and contemporary veterinary education that informs how care is delivered at Alma every day.
