Our Mission
At VETECO our mission is to provide the highest quality and precision veterinary diagnostic imaging in the Canary Islands. We believe every pet deserves the best possible diagnosis, regardless of where they live or which veterinarian attends them.
We were founded with the goal of meeting a real need in the south of Gran Canaria: to offer specialised veterinary ultrasound services that were previously only available at referral clinics in the capital or on the mainland.
We work closely with the patients' referring veterinarians, sharing ultrasound findings and diagnostic reports to ensure continuity and quality of care for every animal.
Specialisation
We dedicate ourselves exclusively to veterinary ultrasound and diagnostic imaging. This specialisation allows us to reach the highest level of excellence and precision.
Technology
We invest in the best available ultrasound equipment to provide high-resolution images and maximum reliability diagnostics.
Collaboration
We understand our work as a key component within the team caring for each pet, always in coordination with the referring veterinarian.
Transparency
Clear, complete and understandable reports. We explain findings to both veterinarians and pet owners.
What sets us apart?
Our exclusive focus on veterinary diagnostic imaging allows us to offer a level of service that makes a difference.
Reference centre
We are the reference centre for veterinary ultrasound in the south of Gran Canaria. We attend referrals from clinics across the island that do not have their own ultrasound machine or need a specialised second diagnostic opinion.
Certified equipment
We use professional state-of-the-art ultrasound equipment with high-frequency transducers for small animals, allowing images of superior diagnostic quality.
Same-day results
We deliver the written report with representative images on the same day as the examination, or within a maximum of 24 hours in complex cases. The report is sent directly to the referring veterinarian in digital format.
No waiting lists
We manage appointments efficiently so your pet does not have to wait longer than necessary for their diagnosis. In urgent cases, we do our best to attend you as soon as possible.
Personalised care
Every patient is unique. We dedicate the necessary time to each examination and ensure that both the veterinarian and the owner understand the results and their clinical implications.
Accessibility
Located in Maspalomas, we are accessible to all residents in the south of Gran Canaria. We attend via WhatsApp for maximum convenience in appointment management and results communication.
Patients we treat
At VETECO we specialise in diagnostic imaging for companion animals. Our main patients are dogs and cats, although we can assess other companion animals on a case-by-case basis.
Dogs
All breeds and sizes. From puppies to geriatric patients. Routine examinations, diagnostic emergencies and chronic disease monitoring.
