Owner Review Summary

Distilled from Google reviews — see what pet owners actually say

👍What Pet Owners Praised

Owners consistently praised the vets and nurses for being compassionate, gentle and thorough, especially with anxious pets and during difficult end‑of‑life moments. Many highlight clear, patient explanations, good pre‑ and post‑operative care, and proactive follow‑ups, with repeated mentions of excellent outcomes in dental work, desexing and other surgeries. Several long‑term clients noted they trust the team and would highly recommend them.

💬Common Feedback & Suggestions

While the sentiment is largely positive, a few reviewers reported lapses in communication and follow‑up, including missed call‑backs and one cancelled appointment without effective notification. There were isolated complaints about difficulty securing urgent bookings (including euthanasia timing), a strict policy on repeat medications without a consult, and perceptions of higher pricing or medication mark‑ups. A small number of reviews alleged poor clinical outcomes or disagreement with recommended procedures. Overall, these were exceptions amid a strong pattern of care and kindness.

🐾Tips for Pet Owners

  • Book ahead for urgent needs and confirm your appointment on the day, especially for time‑sensitive or end‑of‑life visits.
  • Ask for an upfront estimate and discuss medication pricing or prescription options to manage costs.
  • Let the team know if your pet is anxious so they can take things slowly and make the visit positive.
  • Before surgery or dental work, prepare questions—the vets provide thorough explanations and follow up after procedures.
  • Plan repeat medications in advance, as a consult may be required before refills are provided.
