   I couldn’t recommend the hospital for small animals and the team highly enough. From the very first appointment the staff took excellent care of my accident prone greyhound. Angus was fantastic and took great care of our boy. He had a dental and the procedure and aftercare was excellent with Angus. He then began seeing the wonderful Maaike who he adored for his regular acupuncture sessions and I just knew he was in the best hands. We sadly lost our beloved hound in November and we were blessed to be under the care of Fiona who couldn’t have been kinder during our hardest time. Not only will your pet receive the best care at the hospital, you will also meet some wonderful humans who go above and beyond.

   I know my Lexy is in good hands each time we have an appointment. Each and every staff member is so friendly and kind. They always go out of their way to explain certain things which seem complex to me. Albert is an amazing vet and happy he is taking care of Lexy

   We are still not out of the woods but wanted to reassure anyone who has to take their beloved pet here as an emergency that these people will do everything they can. My cat Winston was feeling poorly and not eating too well. After taking him to my normal vet (Dundas Veterinary Group: never again) they told me his creatinine value was 1200 which is not good. 24 hours of fluids and no pain management, only trying to get him some gabapentin via food which he wasn’t eating and his condition was not improving and second blood panel showed 2300 creatinine. I didn’t want to give up especially since no imaging had been done so we received a priority referral to the small animal hospital and the treatment and bedside manner has been night and day. Winston was put on antibiotics, fluids and imaging was done among other things. These things take time and as of this morning his kidney values are back to normal ! Even if things do not end the way we want, I am so comforted by the fact that my cat is getting the absolute best care. Thank you to Joel and Esther and the team for taking such good care your patients and their owners.

   Absolutely wonderful, cannot thank them enough for their above and beyond care and treatment for our little Rolo. They provided an extensive diagnosis and treatment plan in writing to make sure we knew exactly what was going on and what was to happen next. We took Rolo in for radiation treatment for a thymoma and unfortunately the lump had grown too big after the first treatment he couldn’t get enough oxygen and had to be put down. They called us and kept him stable until we could arrive, they took us into a lovely little private room that was comfortable and quiet. The vet treating Silvia explained everything, we knew they tried absolutely everything to help Rolo but unfortunately he was not able to recover. They kept him comfortable and content until we could arrive which we appreciated so much. The team were so compassionate, professional & let us say goodbye to our little guy in a dignified way - even had a side door we could use after so we didn’t have to pass through the busy reception. Just a small thing that was incredibly thoughtful and considerate. They responded to any questions or concerns so quickly, even via email even though. I wish were able to have Rolo treated here from the beginning of his illness, I’ll never forget how well Rolo was treated here & how wonderful the whole team was communicating with us to explain everything. If you have a pet that needs treatment and you’re referred here, take the opportunity straightaway - they are amazing & I’m so grateful for everything they did. Taking care of your pet is honestly their top priority.

   My dog was really well looked after by the professional, competent and kind ICU team when she had to spend 5 days as an inpatient with pneumothorax and subcutaneous emphysema after being hit by a car at 40mph in a freak accident. She has since made a full recovery and is back to herself.

   It's a wonderful place, we took our 11 month old Jack Russell pup there for an operation to cure a liver shunt. Took her in on Monday morning and arrived home with her 3 days later.

   Just had 1st (routine) appointment with my new puppy. Researched various vet practices before registering here. Not disappointed at all. Entire team lovely. Seen on time. Saw two students and a vet. Faultless. Hopefully won't need any emergency services but if I do I'll be confident of kind and expert attention.
