When I lived in Richmond Hill, I brought my dog to Abbotsford Animal Hospital, and even after we…read moremoved downtown and had a new vet, it was the only place I would take her when she stopped eating, and after an ultrasound - where we were by her side in the back room, contrary to some other reviews - it was discovered her heart was beyond repair, and we said our tearful goodbyes to her in the room she had received physio for years and was comfortable in. Fast forward and we now have 2 dogs, and they have a local vet downtown, but when serious issues came up with our older dog, I went straight to Dr. Bockneck at Abbotsford for a second opinion and ended up having him do the x-rays and ultrasound. For this ultrasound, she was dropped off and I picked her up a few hours later, along with a copy of the ultrasound on disc, and thankfully she will be okay and won't require surgery. The fact that they have the equipment and experience to do so many procedures in house at Abbotsford means a lot to me. So even though I can get my dog's teeth cleaned at my local vet, I feel more confident taking her for the 45 minute drive up to Aurora to get it done at Abbotsford where they have the ability to do a more advanced x-ray on her teeth. I LOVE my dogs, and my older dog has always been a nervous girl, but she has always happily walked into the back with the vet techs, and that is only when she is going in for a procedure, any other examinations have been done in one of the many exam rooms they have there with me by her side. Lastly, I need to do a shout out to Annette, the head vet tech at Abbotsford, and the first Canadian awarded Petplans 2016 Vet Tech of the Year Award of North America. Her love of animals, and her calming influence of nervous dogs like mine, is a wonder to behold. Annette was the therapist who did physio on our previous dog, and was by our side when we said goodbye to our beloved old girl. Annette is one of the many reasons I trust Abbotsford with my beloved dogs. I am obviously a fan, and don't just take my word for it, there are many Google reviews of other pet owners who love Abbotsford, and a few reviews on Yelp, but they are all hidden.

Bottom line is profit and the vets and doctors fall in line do what they are told and cash in. Clearly they lost ethics, humanity , and any sort of doctors oath they promised.

Everyone there has always displayed the highest degree of professionalism and competence. They've seen my feline friends through sickness and health, as well as the sadness of end-of-life. I've always been impressed with their focus on the animals, and how they continuously search for new ways to help them. They have always taken care to explain things to me and answer my questions. I've found them all to be unfailingly kind and considerate. More importantly, all of my cats have trusted them (none of them enjoyed visiting the vet, of course, but were never fearful of any of the staff). They have my highest recommendation.

I'm truly upset with how I was treated as a women in this clinic. If they only wanted my boyfriend to bring him into the vets, they've done a great job! Update: we had to go in to finish the booster shot and their temp vet tried to put a muzzle on my dog without my permission which was not cool or okay at all then asked if I would like to wait to make an appointment where my boyfriend could attend. I have let my boyfriend know everything which happened on the visit from the pushy attitude, condescending questions, to still having his late fathers card on file (which has been requested to be removed multiple times now) and we are not happy here anymore. Tip: have your employees greet the owner before their pet. Remember who has say in this relationship... because I am treated as an afterthought at this vet only to serve them and my dog.

He has an auto-immune issue which requires his teeth to be cleaned under sedation annually. One of the veterinarians is studying to beocme a specialist in dentistry, so we thought we would give them a try. We were really impressed with the care Henri received. They took xrays and were thorough. The veterianian actually does the cleaning instead of a vet technician which happens at most clinics. They followed up with the next day to see how Henri was doing and even followed up a few days later. It turns out that Henri develped an eye infection and they were able to get us in quickly to see the veterinarian. The clinic is very clean and the veterinarian sits down and explains everything very clearly.

I did find another vet who is charging me $30 less than what his clinic charges.

She was referred from our usual vet and we have never met her previously. For something so emotional and difficult we were of course nervous who was showing up but could not have imagined a better fit. Dr Patricia and her colleague Danielle were so calm, compassionate, and well organised. They arrived on schedule and were communicating in anticipation of being late from another event. They brought everything needed for this service(End of Life), gently briefed us what to expect, when they would step away while the process was happening so we could spend time and say our goodbyes, where best to be around the dog so they could do their work. It is really is the hardest, most emotional time when your beloved pet is passing and they made it as peaceful as possible for all involved. They accommodated our wishes to be outside this chilly August day, luckily the rain held out. They offered/included a sentimental keepsake of some fur trimming. Left us some brochures for guidance as we were new to grieving. We are still crying seeing her imprints in the grass and it's devastating being out in the yard where she was happiest but know this was the best place and way for her to leave. They service all of Markham and gta for many different services, but if you are considering an in home vs at the vet clinic for end of life, Dr Patricia is one I would highly recommend. The price is reasonable and worth just a bit more to have your pet pass away in the comforts of their surroundings and loved ones. It's been a few days since the event and their clinic called to follow up on how we were holding up. They really do care and do an excellent job.

I am appalled at how this operation so blatantly tries to rip me off. They made me bring her several times for simple puppy shots...I was told "she is small, we must do them in several sessions" and the billed for a visit each time. My other 5 pups, all smaller breeds, had ONE visit for ALL shots. However, what promoted this warming was the $1400 (plus tax) extortion attempt to have her spayed. Seriously? It is $400-$500 at nearby veterinary clinics. Just because we live in a nice neighborhood doesn't mean we just toss money away like idiots. If you value not getting ripped off there are many places not so focused on how to take your money but actually in the health and wellbeing of your pet. Please take your business to a more respectable organization.

Their staff is ultra receptive and have an incredible amount of patience. They are great with regards to answering phones.

The staff is incredibly knowledgeable and helpful. As for what I see from the corner of my eye. The location is clean and the front desk always populated. They have double doors going in which helps with pets who are trying to make a run for it. There is ample parking and grassy space for pets who need to empty bowels before or after a visit. The service is accompanied by an array of treats. They are very gentle for handling rambunctious overgrown puppies. They also have dog food and pet supplies on hand for sale. They support community and local initiatives. There is a constant stream of clients coming in and out although from the street it always looks like it's empty. (Parking is in the back)
