I have been a customer of crestwood vet for many years, mostly seeing Dr. Todd Scott. My animals are rescues - both cats and dogs. Our latest additions are 2 kittens, along with our 2 elderly dogs. We trust Dr. Scott implicitly for the most remarkable compassionate care, with a good dose of dry humour mixed in! He has never recommended any treatment that was not necessary. He just knows what is best for the animal in any given situation. We love our pets, and take comfort knowing that they have the best care possible. read more

I can't say enough good things about Crestwood Vet, especially Dr. Doug Heffelfinger. He is so compassionate and caring, he really makes sure that your animal is happy, healthy, and comfortable. We had to find a new vet clinic and figure out what my dog was allergic to, as well as a few other health issues. Dr. Doug really works with you and your pet as a team. His main goal is the welfare of your fur babies. I've had great experiences with the other veterinarians as well. I will never bring my animals anywhere else! Shoutout to the vet receptionists too - so kind and the absolute hardest workers. They deserve a raise. PS - Milo the Boston Pug gives his love and sloppy kisses! read more

We've visited a number of different vets here, all have been caring and thoughtful treating my elderly gal. Best techs I've seen, and I've been around clinics with sick critters for many years. Blood drawn without shaving kitty... she didn't even notice! Impressive skills. Very convenient to pick up pet food and prices are comparable to other clinics in town. Nice selection of toys and prices are really reasonable. Kong toys were less expensive here than at the pet store! read more

I've brought my cat here once before for an examination and was given medication while having it explained that if he did not improve with what they had tested and treated at the time, they would perform other examinations to test for terminal illnesses the following visit. He was doing fine after the medication up until recently when he began having the same problems (drastically losing weight, vomiting and bowel issues) so I booked another appointment to do the follow up that had been discussed previously. I'm currently working out of town so I had to arrange for someone else to bring him in but I explained that I wanted to proceed with what was discussed for the follow up which was an ultrasound, etc. Well, they ended up performing the same examination while trying to prescribe the medication that clearly didn't work the first time. They weren't able to do the ultrasound and other tests but decided it was still a good idea to proceed with the same appointment as the previous time. It was like deja-vu. If they weren't able to perform the more extensive examinations that day, the least they could've done is just booked the appointment for it and sent us on our way instead of charging me for something that I didn't ask for and reiterating the same information, treatment and potential alternatives. I would've understood but instead I'm left feeling worried and gypped with no new insight on whether he's potentially terminally ill. Not impressed and will be seeking a second opinion and the testing that I requested elsewhere. read more

I have taken my 3 cats here over the couple of years. I like how they call them by names. Very professional staff all staff. My fur babies receive medication and claw trim. I highly recommend this clinic. Dogs and cats have separate exams rooms. Meow meow. read more

I took my sister's dogs here for two different issues and I have to say, I have been very impressed by the professionalism of the staff and the opportunity to also get real help with two relatively serious issues. One was a serious eye issue and the other was a spinal issue that was affecting the ability of the dog to feel what was going on on his foot. They have a chiropractor who comes in Wednesday morning to deal with dog concerns and she gave the dog spinal adjustments that made a real improvement for him. read more

I had a very bad experience in this veterinary. My dog has a swelling paw and found it was a broken toe. They put a cast and couple days later notice that the dog did not use this leg at all; I brought the dog back three times for them to check after the second time they change the cast in a way that it looks like a ballerina ballet on pointed, I brought it back for the third time and tell in many ways something is wrong with the cast. They convince me it is ok it is right and she should be like that for 2 weeks. I was heartbroken to see it hopping in three legs when she stand for food or water the rest of the time just lying there very sadly. I believe the vet knows better than I, but it turns out No true if you know something it is wrong with your pet act promptly. Seek a second opinion. After two weeks we brought her back and the cast produce a swelling and by the way the cast was put was impossible to see it, it also got a very bad bruise on the middle of the leg that has nothing to do with the broken toe. It was totally neglected on my concerns, they completely fail my dog as a vets. there are not trustworthy. I wrote this review so you can make a better choices than I did. I also fail my dog in its care by not follow my instincts. read more

I brought my dog here as she was choking and this was the closest clinic near my location. This is not my regular vet, yet the service we received was nothing short of outstanding. I had called just before arriving so the staff were aware that it was an emergency situation. As soon as we arrived, they dropped everything and immediately took her in. I cannot say enough about the discretion of the staff, as when they saw we were distressed they took us outside to talk away from the busy reception area. Special thanks for Dr. Cynthia Kashivakura for her incredible caring and compassion and to Joanne for looking after us. Dr. Diana Hartel Vancouver, BC read more

After over a year and about 5 vet's opinions, I finally found answers at Crestwood. Whenever I told coworkers or friends about my dog's problems and the lack of help from vets, they kept recommending me to Crestwood. So eventually I went and I am SO happy I did. My dog had been vomiting blood for about a year. Vets treated the symptoms but could never find the problem. I went to Dr. Doug primarily because he has a lot of experience with endoscopy which is what I felt my dog needed at that point to figure this issue you. He actually told me the endoscopy might not be necessary but that he would still do it so we could rule out any issues. Hear that? A vet that doesn't pressure you into spending money... Anyways, he did the endoscopy and everything did turn out fine. Turns out the magic cure for my dog's problem was a simple prescription of pepcid ac. That paired with the sulcrate for several months cured her. She continues to take 1/2 a pepcid daily for the last year and is doing great. I cannot believe that after ALL those vets and ALL that money (over $2000) I spent, and the solution was so simple. My dog has continued going to Crestwood for any other issues and they are always amazing. She once had an issue where she was digging in her kennel and causing her nails to bleed. I took her in to make sure there wasn't any other issues, and he told me that it was just due to the digging and there wasn't much I could do apart from putting socks on her or some training. All good! Best part there? I was NOT CHARGED for anything that day, including the appointment, because as he jokingly put he "didn't really do anything". After being to so many vets and seeing how many put money above animals, it is very refreshing to find a vet that so obviously puts animals first. read more

My family has had a few experiences with Vets in this city and never have we had as good experience as we do at Crestwood! Our little poodle is now almost 17 so we have had our fair share of visits. Just recently we were out of town and had to leave him at a kennel which unfortunately lead to another dog biting our poor poodle, leaving him with injuries that needed a vets attention. We had a friend go and pick him up from the kennel and take him to Crestwood where they took care of him and offered to kennel him for us so they could assure us he was going to be okay! I wouldn't recommend any other vet in this city. Thanks guys!! read more

Crestwood Veterinary - This is our little guy when we went to pick him up! He was very happy to see us:) - Veterinarians Near Me - Edmonton, Alberta

They are simply great! I have been taking my dogs there for a year now and always amazing treatment, they are super nice

This has been my primary dog vet for a couple of years. Dr. Hefflefinger picked up a murmur other vets missed. Today, they were able to fit me in on an emergency basis to treat my dog's bites from a dog attack. Everyone from Dr. Machum to the front staff and the vet techs went above and beyond. Delighted that these doctors are our vets. (Our pup had another laceration recently and we took him to the emergency vet nearby since it was after hours. As expected, for virtually identical treatment, the emergency vet charged about 20% more. What I didn't expect was just how much neater the sutures were at Crestwood and how much better my dog reacted to the anesthesia - At the emergency vet, my dog was stumbling and I had to carry him home and he really suffered post-anesthesia. At Crestwood, he had limited grogginess, wagged his tail when I saw him and jumped into the car on his own. I don't know what would cause the better outcome at Crestwood, but just based on everything I think it was a higher standard of care.) read more

While visiting Edmonton our dog became very ill. We walked into the clinic and they were so kind and worked us right in. Dr. Joel was fabulous! So caring and thorough and saved our dog's life! Highly recommend. read more

Crestwood has been our primary vet for 30 years and many pets. Quality care and personal service. They're accommodating with billing when we were away and our kids were pet sitting too. read more

We have been to this vet office to see Dr. Doug Heffelfinger on numerous occasions. He neutered our male guinea pig and has worked along side us to help with various skin conditions that have occurred. He also tried to save our female guinea pig who wasn't well- due to an ovarian cyst. Unfortunately, our mommy guinea pig wasn't strong enough to survive the surgery and passed away. Both the doctor and the office were very sympathetic when this happened- and even sent us a condolence card. I have been to Park Vet in Sherwood Park a few times (before I found Crestwood and when Dr. Heffelfinger has been out of town). Every time I have gone to Park Vet, I have left feeling ripped off. I truly appreciate the affordable pricing at Crestwood. Friendly and knowledgeable staff, reasonable pricing, and community work with Rescue associations (such as Rescue for Life) all illustrate to me that Crestwood Vet truly values their clients and that they believe in giving back to the community. They are motivated by much more than the business-side of things! Two thumbs up for Crestwood Veterinary. read more

Dr Todd Scott has been my vet for quite a few years now. Recently my Doberman was very sick and he was able to pool his resources along with the other vets at the practice to help diagnose the problem. They went to great lengths to save my girls life. I would recommend this vet clinic to anyone who cares deeply for their fur babies. read more

I'm not sure what I can say about this place other than I trust them wholeheartedly to care for my very loved furbabies. It's truly as good as it gets there. Plus, they will board your cats and dogs if you need 'em to do so. read more

I have to put down my dog . Very deep sad emotion. People were amazing. I will go Back when I get a new dog

I have been with Crestwood Veterinary services for about 12 years. They helped keeping my little poodle Caesar in top shape, him now being 16 years old. I have dealt with a number of their vets and vet assistants and found without exception, all of them to be outstanding, compassionate professionals. For the last 4 years I have dealt mostly with Dr. Kubik, a superb surgeon/dentist. The desk staff is very friendly helpful and efficient. Their pricing has been very reasonable. Yes, I highly recommend Crestwood veterinary services to anyone who value their pet, you can not go wrong, using their services. Yes, there may be other clinics as good, but none of them better. read more

I did have a terrible experience with the vet there for the first time visiting of regular health check. The vet has some disagreement with my puppy's raw diet, the guy does not ask us to help. He just roughly grab the puppy and try to put him down which really scared the puppy. For his instinct, he defends himself by the mouth after forced out his pee and poop. The vet got scratch on the hand, he was so mad that he asked us to get out of the clinic room immediately at the moment of our shocking. Then we switched to another vet clinic, the vet does his work perfectly without any issue with the puppy. read more

I wanted to thank you Dr Kubic the level of care you showed our dogs. We could not be happier with the care we received from the front desk staff to the care from Dr Kubic. I have always found we are never rushed, he will not suggest a procedure or medication he does not feel is necessary. And always takes the time to explain things and encourages our questions. He is very compassionate and kind, I would recommend to everyone. read more

We've taken four of our dogs to Crestwood for nearly 10 years. The staff is caring and the facility is clean and well maintained. All the vets who have looked after our dogs seem knowledgeable and have listened to our concerns. When our elderly dog became suddenly ill a few years ago, they threw everything they could at her to determine what was wrong. And when it became clear it was time to say goodbye to her, the staff were so kind and graceful when we put her down. They understand how much our dogs mean to us, and treat them and us accordingly. read more

Do NOT trust Dr. Heffelfinger with your hedgehogs or other exotics! This guy has nearly killed my friend's pet! This poor hedgehog is going to have to have her leg amputated months after her first visit when the only injury she had was a slightly stolen toe. Rather than treat properly, he slapped some meds in her hand and sent her away. She emailed many times with pictures of the injury getting worse, and he brushed off her concerns up until now where the for has become necrotic and will require amputation when she finds a new vet! read more

I've been coming here for years now. All the staff and vets are great. Large clinic. Happy to be here. And they just did a renovation.

Wonderful, caring people from the veterinarians to the friendly front desk staff. The doctors are patient and empathetic, and provide clear explanations for any procedures they need to carry out. They are always willing to squeeze you in if your pet is in distress. One of my vets even gave up their lunch to provide my pet with an emergency treatment. From the first kitten examination and vaccinations to the dreaded moments when you have to say the last good bye to your terminally ill pet, I can't imagine anyone more caring and thoughtful in helping me deal with all these situations than the staff of Crestwood Veterinary Clinic. read more

The staff and vets at Crestwood are the personification of empathy and skill. I'm a low income individual and they went above and beyond the ensure that my furbaby was taken care of. The staff displayed concern and care for my cats health. They looked for solutions to my problems where lesser folk may have only seen roadblock. They provided stellar care both to my beloved buddy and to me as a very anxious parent. Do not hesitate to bring your furry family member to their warm and talents staff and medical professionals. Many thanks to them. read more

I have six animals and have been to many clinics, and this is one of the best that I have been to! I was referred by a friend who had a diabetic cat, which i too have, and now I will not take my babies anywhere else if I don't have to.... And I don't live in Edmonton, I live in surrounding area with many vets in between! read more

This vet is amazing and they have very good prices. I will be switching my current vet to this one. They did surgery on my dogs radius and it cost me half the price that i was quoted by guardian animal clinic. They are sooo helpful and very friendly. I've thanked them over twenty times because I'm very happy with the outcome. One friendly reminder to all, Get Pet Insurance. read more

I've been going to this vet for many years and have had a great experience. They are very thorough and truly care about your pet. They took care of my dog who was brutally attacked by another dog and he made a full and great recovery thanks to them. They stayed late when I came in with my emergency and treated me like family. I love the ladies up front too. They truly care and love seeing my dogs when I come in and remember me and are friendly and wonderful. The vets are great! Dr Andrea and dr Doug are the greatest vets I've been too in a long time. I highly recommend Crestwood. They also waved an entire exam fee for my friend who couldn't afford the visit but desperately needed to get his dog meds and they saw the dog and Prescribed medication and didn't charge a single cent for an exam fee. Only $13 for meds! That truly shows that they care about the animals more than the money. Kudos Crestwood! read more

Forty-five years ago, when I was 18, I found a little kitten on my doorstep. I lived close by the original Crestwood on 142 Street and they became my vet of choice. Other than for emergency after-hours care, I have never needed to go anywhere else. Dr. McFeteridge was my original vet, followed by Dr. Mary (who assisted when my friend's dog went into labor during an exam, allowing us a private room for the delivery of 6 healthy puppies); Dr. Doug who has treated my kitties, doggies, a pet mouse with cancer and even an injured pigeon; Dr. Scott took phenomenal care of my brothers Boston Terriers for their entire lives; Dr. Andrea and Dr. Lisa have recently repaired my cat's injured toes, did his dental work, removed tumors from my 14-year-old dog's leg and shoulder; and I can't say enough good things about the front desk ladies! If you are looking for a clinic where they truly care about you and your pet, this clinic comes with my highest recommendation. They have treated all my pets like family and during those very hard end-of-life visits, have shown me wonderful compassion. Keep up the good work. read more

Some of the sweetest, most caring animal people I've ever had the pleasure to meet. They answered all our concerns, and explained medication/what to expect during treatment. We did not feel rushed. They had colouring books for our kids to keep them busy. These ppl are knowledgeable and AMAZING at their jobs. Reasonably priced also. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!!! read more

Regarding Doctor Pat Kubik: We attended with out cat (Ali) Oct 11/11 for a diagnosis .. Our cat hadn't eaten for some time and was quite old and sick so we made the sad decision to end her suffering. Dr. Kubik was sensitive to our feelings and made a difficult time much easier for us. I can not speak more highly of this clinic and the care we received both from the receptionist and Dr Kubik under these difficult circumstances. Our heartfelt thanks to all of them. Doug Barrett read more

While the standard of care is very professional, Crestwood was our regular vet for two years and was exceptionally expensive. Additionally, the centre routinely charged us for services without telling us they were going to be provided, or recommended services without indicating the sometimes staggering additional cost. One such incident, for a minor check, cost us over $1,000. As with all Edmonton vets, prices even without gouging were outrageous. Our recommendation: it's worth the drive to one of the small towns surrounding the city, where costs were HALF what they are in the city. read more

After seeing dr. Scott about a month ago for a consult on my dog after a friends referral and multiple visits to my regular vet with no definitive answer on what was going on with my girls leg, Dr. Scott was able to give me an answer almost immediately. Today she went for surgery to fix a torn meniscus and I could not have had a better experience. The entire staff at crestwood are absolutely wonderful and accommodating! I will be switching vet clinics and look forward to both a great recovery for my dog and future visits. My utmost appreciation goes to this clinic for their passion for pets and their well being rather then feeling like your just another number walking through the door!!! Best clinic experience in Edmonton! read more

We have brought our animals to Crestwood Vet since the first days we have had them, and our family all bring their animals to Crestwood. Our two main doctors are Dr Doug and Dr Andrea. Both have been amazing and really seem to care about our animals. We have a dog and a cat. Our cat recently had a blockage, very common in male cats. Dr Andrea was very quick to react ensuring we caught it in time, as blockages are very time sensitive. Our cat Glen ended up at the vet for 6 days, he kinked his catheter and got another blockage, which caused him to need another catheter put in. Dr Andrea called us everyday with multiple updates, even if it was just to say he's doing great and everyone loves him. It's very stressful when your animal is sick, she was very calming and understanding, and was very supportive. We knew Glen was getting the best care possible. Crestwood and Dr Andrea made sure we were fully informed on all costs and care that was needed, while Glen was at the vet and now that he's home. I would highly recommend Crestwood and their amazing vets. read more

Absolutely fantastic clinic. You will not find a better veterinary team in the city. We owe Dr. Scott for our dogs life and we can not express in words the joy he brought back to our lives read more

I have been very satisfied with my experiences at Crestwood Veterinary Centre. They have seen me through the senior years of my malamute, worked to keep my senior cat healthy, and supported my 2 year old rescue dog with thorough annual check ups. I recently adopted a 5 month old shepherd. Within one week I knew something was not right with this pup and I took him to see Dr. Andrea Pellegrino. I was happy to be able to see her again as she was so exceptionally kind and considerate and caring with my senior dog. Dr. Pellegrino ran appropriate tests, made a diagnosis, and immediately put my puppy on medical management for a serious life threatening congenital issue. We were quickly referred to a specialized surgeon. During the consultation with the specialiist I was told that the management that Dr. Pellegrino recommended was excellent and that she was impressed. Dr. Pellegrino has taken time to explain everything thoroughly and to call me to ensure adequate follow up. She has reassured me that although this is a serious condition and a favorable outcome is not guaranteed, it is very possible that my pup will pull through. She exhibits calm, intelligence, intuition and absolute caring. I trust her completely and I am grateful that my pets are under her care. read more

I'm a long-time cat lover and owner and have been taking my little guys to Crestwood for over a decade, seeing most of the vets there. They recently started seeing the newest vet at the clinic, Dr. Andrea Pellegrino. One of my guys has been having health issues for a long time and it looked like we were at the end with him, I didn't think we'd have him with us this Christmas. But Dr. Pellegrino fought tooth and nail for him and now we have him with us - she is an incredibly caring and compassionate person and vet. I am so thankful our cats have her looking out for them. Can't say enough for the caring team at Crestwood - everyone there really looks out for their furry patients. read more
