About Us
Independent Veterinary Care Rooted in Orléans
Crown Pointe Animal Hospital opened in 2008 with a commitment to serving pets and families throughout Orléans and Ottawa’s east end. Over time, the hospital became known for the familiarity of a smaller practice—one where clients can develop lasting relationships with the people caring for their pets.
In 2023, our doctors, Dr. Asma Ghrab and Dr. Nadia Ouellette, took ownership and began a new chapter for the hospital. As women owners and practising veterinarians, they have continued to expand the hospital’s capabilities while preserving its personal, community-focused approach. Independent ownership allows decisions to be guided by each patient’s needs rather than a corporate model.
Our mission is to provide compassionate, individualized veterinary care in an environment where people feel recognized, heard, and respected. Recommendations are explained clearly, questions are welcomed, and each family is involved in developing an appropriate care plan for their pet.
As a Fear Free Certified Practice, Crown Pointe adjusts its approach to help reduce fear, anxiety, and stress during veterinary visits. These efforts reflect the hospital’s broader values of compassion, trust, communication, teamwork, and treating every patient as an individual.
The hospital’s veterinary services for dogs and cats include preventive care, dentistry, soft-tissue surgery, diagnostics, urgent care, pain management, acupuncture, and Traditional Chinese Veterinary Medicine. This combination allows the doctors to consider both conventional and integrative options based on each patient’s needs.
