We took our very sick cat Rusty here to put down on may 14th, the tech Tara was very kind and…read moregentle with her actions and words. There was no rush and she gave us the time we needed. She also gave us a few stamped pages of Rusty's paw prints which the kids absolutely adored. Thank you again staff at AV and Tara for making a tough time that much more easier.

We saw Dr Jamie Campbell. I told the doc of the issue with our labradoodle. Our doodle had been…read moresick with specific issues and told him. He immediately said it's an UTI. NO testing just his hunch I asked if we need blood work he said NO. I asked if we needed xray... again no. He prescribed her pain medication and she prescribed her an antibiotic I bought the anabiotic did not the pain medicine as I had the same thing at home we took her home her condition got worse overnight I found a prior vet before we moved and Halifax told her what happened she immediately said bring her to me. We took a 3 1/2 hour drive got her there. She did bloodwork immediately and she said she thought she had Addison's disease. She sent her straight to a animal hospital in Halifax. They confirmed what our vet in Halifax said Immediately they put her in the ICU unit and they also said that they thought it was Addison's disease with all the indications to them. Two days later we bring her home I had phoned straight, veterinarian clinic to tell them I could not speak with an office manager, as I think this doctor should have been more aware of the problem other than to brush me off. I would not even recommend this place.

Fantastic staff. I have had two cats, and two of my dogs as patients here. I've had nothing but…read more pleasant encounters with the vets and techs. I recommend them highly. The animals love them

Today was my last time at this clinic. I don't need to see ads for staff needing an apartment all…read moreover the reception area. I don't need my pet to have treatment "In the back" without consulting me first. I don't need to have a my phone call answered by putting me on hold. I don't need to listen to how late the clients stayed the night before so "no one wants to vacuum at that hour", side note that hour was 7pm. There isn't one single receptionist with sympathy or even a smile when you come in. I have talked to the office manager last year(no I'm not Karen) and expressed concerns and nothing has changed. Even the answering service leaves much to be desired. And most of all, I don't need to hear bad info being passed along to a client by a receptionist who was more concerned about getting the person out of the clinic. And another thing....putting up a closed sign so you can make calls while the clinic is full is just wrong. Overall, poor work ethic
