Definitely go with Dr. Murphy stay far away from Dr. Douglas. I would argue that Dr Murphy is one of the most intelligent vets in all of Alberta. Dr. Douglas on the other hand is horrible. I brought my toy poodle Tara to Britannia Kingslands vet because she refused to walk long distances, acutely became extremely reactive and aggressive, was yelping in pain when people picked her up, was having panic, had anxiety attacks every night and became a completely different dog. Dr. Douglas barely looked at her and told me she looks fine. I was frustrated with that answer and went to Dr. Murphy. Turned out Tara had brain cancer. She eventually started having seizures and was put down by Dr. Douglas. Dr. Douglas was very rude didn't even read her file as to why she was being put down came into the room as I was sitting crying because I had to euthanize my dog and started interrogating me about why I was euthanizing my dog because she didn't read the file stating she was having 3 minute long seizures due to brain cancer... She's a horrible vet and I highly recommend you never go to her but on the flipside Dr. Murphy is an absolutely amazing vet and I would go to her a million times over

Alexandria,
After careful review of the medical records and speaking to our doctors on staff, it has come to our attention that your depiction of the events leading up to and including the euthanasia of your pet are entirely inaccurate. I will start by saying that our medical records directly contradict the information you have provided regarding which doctor you saw and when. It is clearly identified that you were seen by Dr. Douglas only once within the last year, and that was for euthanasia only. We welcome you to contact us at any time to review the medical record information so that the misperceptions on your part can be clarified and resolved.
Secondly, Dr. Douglas is a long-time clinician at our practice who is incredibly compassionate and well respected. Not only does she practice high quality medicine, but she also consistently demonstrates a level of kindness and care to her patients that makes her one of the most beloved veterinarians in Calgary. She has always maintained a professional, yet warm attitude towards clients and their pets and it is indeed these many wonderful qualities that make us proud to have her as a member of our team here at Britannia Kingsland Veterinary Clinic. I have no doubt that Dr. Douglas would have treated your pet with the same sincere compassion and warmth that she displays on a daily basis to each and every patient who walks through our clinic doors.

Good friendly staff. I brought my dog in with a broken dew claw nail, it cost me $250!!!! :0. Same thing happened to my other dog a couple months later, I took him somewhere else and it cost me $26!? Britannia Kingsland did give me a bunch of antibiotics that the other did not but even with out those it was still over $100 more expensive for the same service. The work done was great and the staff was friendly. I'm not rich though and glad it doesn't cost that much when I myself break a nail. To be clear, good service, friendly staff, but maybe shop around if price is of high importance to you.

Our dogs have been patients at Britannia Kingsland for over 10 years. When we get out of the car, they know the exact path to the clinic's door and are happy to be there. The vets and staff are very professional, caring and responsive to our concerns. They do not order tests unnecessarily or suggest buying dog food at the clinic (as opposed to Costco or anywhere else). They care about our pets as much as we do and as if they were their own pets. If one dog is in for an appointment, they always ask about the other one. Highly recommended.

I switched to this clinic with my new puppy as it was more convenient than my prior vet's office (who were very good but parking was a nightmare). From the moment I walked in the door, it was obvious that the clinic wants to provide a pleasant atmosphere and experience for clients and staff alike. It's bright, airy and the examination rooms are very roomy. It smells clean without smelling of chemicals, and they have a great supply of food and treats. Dr Hamill has been fabulous to work with, and the staff are knowledgeable and friendly. I'm so happy I made the switch.

Worst vet clinic I've ever had the misfortune of taking my pets to.Nearly killed my Bulldog during a routine neuter because they didn't keep him hydrated, even though I paid the extra money to keep him hydrated. They overstated their competence levels, showed no remorse and left me with a near dead dog that then cost me $20K in surgery to keep alive who now has a permanent hole in his throat to breathe from; all because they didn't give him a drink of water after waking from anesthesia. And before they let me take my choking, black tongued and near dead dog to the hospital who now had a completely preventable grade 3 collapsed trachea, they made sure I paid my bill before I left.Two VERY easy steps could gave saved my dogs life: 1: they could have gave my dog some water after surgery instead of leaving him alone for an hour without checking on him (as they'd noted in his surgical file faxed to the hospital), 2: called me earlier. I was at the vets 11 minutes after they called me to tell me "somethings gone wrong". Their own clinic notes, as released to me from the hospital that saved his life, showed that a full hour had passed before they called me. What went wrong was they found him panting himself into a collapsed trachea, knew it was a matter of not giving him water and instead of calling me at that exact minute, they then tried to take a situation they were not fit to handle into their own hands in a pathetic attempt to save face (not my dogs life). It wasn't until my dog had panted himself to a near dead state that they called me. I could hear him choking from the front door as soon as I walked in, his tongue was a foot long and black, hanging out of his mouth and his eyes were sheer terror and non-coherent.They are incompetent with short nosed breeds, will state otherwise and say "accidents happen". No, "neglect happened" and they're lucky I haven't sued - I'm too busy paying off my emergency surgery bills and the daily dog care my dog now needs to afford a lawyer. A tip, drive a little way down McLeod Trail to Fish Creek Animal Hospital and go to a group of competent, ethical and genuinely caring, professional vets. These Ladies are incompetent and lack remorse, but, their profit margins certainly aren't suffering - just their patients Stick to the nail trims and anal gland extractions, Ladies. You certainly don't know how to give water or use a phone when a surgery goes awry. You disgust me.

I took my dog here and loved the knowledge Dr. Murphy has and shared. I have been to other vets but this was by far the most thorough initial exam. Dr. Murphy practices wholistic medicine as well as conventional so she will pull from either or both areas to ensure my dog gets the best care needed (alas my pup has allergies and a compromised immune system but the good news is that Dr. Murphy is helping her get better). We have been to homeopathic vets and conventional vets and in my opinion Dr. Murhpy is the best blending of both.

Good friendly staff. I brought my dog in with a broken dew claw nail, it cost me $250!!!! :0. Same thing happened to my other dog a couple months later, I took him somewhere else and it cost me $26!? Britannia Kingsland did give me a bunch of antibiotics that the other did not but even with out those it was still over $100 more expensive for the same service. The work done was great and the staff was friendly. I'm not rich though and glad it doesn't cost that much when I myself break a nail. To be clear, good service, friendly staff, but maybe shop around if price is of high importance to you.

Dr.Murphy and the whole team have been excellent to our family! From helping our older chocolate lab to helping us as we went through knee surgery with our old English bulldog puppy; referrals, follow ups and support dealing with insurance. They are so thoughtful and supportive.

Our dogs have been patients at Britannia Kingsland for over 10 years. When we get out of the car, they know the exact path to the clinic's door and are happy to be there. The vets and staff are very professional, caring and responsive to our concerns. They do not order tests unnecessarily or suggest buying dog food at the clinic (as opposed to Costco or anywhere else). They care about our pets as much as we do and as if they were their own pets. If one dog is in for an appointment, they always ask about the other one. Highly recommended.

I've been bringing my cats here for over 15 years and have always had a great experience no matter which vet I have gone to. The staff are always friendly and professional they are always on top of following up re: test results, medications etc.. They always return my phone calls and emails in a timely manner. You can tell that they care about their patients. I would highly recommend seeing any of the vets here!

Just called this location this afternoon. This place wanted SIX HUNDRED dollars to spay a cat. You have to be kidding me. Take your animals elsewhere, this place is just looking for your cash. I was just quoted $210.00 at three other places in Calgary- I would advise to visit there.

Through neglect and complete disregard and lack of detail - they killed my bunnies leg.
Sept 14 - I brought my bunny in as he injured his leg and needed a cast.
They applied the cast as well as gave him an xray and charged me $1000.
There was 2 checkups before the removal of the cast.
I asked for on the second checkup for the cast to be replaced as I thought it was too tight.
They explained that it wasnt too tight and that it was looking good.
The day of the removal they noticed the leg as completely died and they sent me home

I switched to this clinic with my new puppy as it was more convenient than my prior vet's office (who were very good but parking was a nightmare). From the moment I walked in the door, it was obvious that the clinic wants to provide a pleasant atmosphere and experience for clients and staff alike. It's bright, airy and the examination rooms are very roomy. It smells clean without smelling of chemicals, and they have a great supply of food and treats. Dr Hamill has been fabulous to work with, and the staff are knowledgeable and friendly. I'm so happy I made the switch.

I have to say they are amazing! I had brought my dog Sasha into see Elaine Murphy, as Sasha had a lump on her tail they did X-rays, blood work and found out that it was a tumour and they had to remove it. In saying this they had removed the lump and we tought at that point we would have to cut her tail off but again Elaine and her staff were amazing and with long term care and cleaning and changing the bandage regularly the lump went away! Hi highly recommend Britaannia Kingsland!!
Thank you so much Elaine and staff for everything!! :)

Never had an issue here. I really appreciate the follow up calls to see how your pet is improving. I particularly like Dr Murphy, I feel like she genuinely loves my scraggly little ex-Mexican street dog. The affection she gives the animals is authentic and that is very reassuring as a nervous pet mama.

They did a tumour test, DIRECTLY on a tumour, took blood from the tumour, but in house instead of biopsy, my new vet tells me that they shouldn't have done that, and should have done biopsy and sent it to lab that are experts in that. From their "in house Kingsland lab test" to his biopsy with new vet was around 3 weeks. Found out...not only was it tumours, but agressive cancer. Thaaaanks Kingsland.

Worst vet clinic I've ever had the misfortune of taking my pets to.Nearly killed my Bulldog during a routine neuter because they didn't keep him hydrated, even though I paid the extra money to keep him hydrated. They overstated their competence levels, showed no remorse and left me with a near dead dog that then cost me $20K in surgery to keep alive who now has a permanent hole in his throat to breathe from; all because they didn't give him a drink of water after waking from anesthesia. And before they let me take my choking, black tongued and near dead dog to the hospital who now had a completely preventable grade 3 collapsed trachea, they made sure I paid my bill before I left.Two VERY easy steps could gave saved my dogs life: 1: they could have gave my dog some water after surgery instead of leaving him alone for an hour without checking on him (as they'd noted in his surgical file faxed to the hospital), 2: called me earlier. I was at the vets 11 minutes after they called me to tell me "somethings gone wrong". Their own clinic notes, as released to me from the hospital that saved his life, showed that a full hour had passed before they called me. What went wrong was they found him panting himself into a collapsed trachea, knew it was a matter of not giving him water and instead of calling me at that exact minute, they then tried to take a situation they were not fit to handle into their own hands in a pathetic attempt to save face (not my dogs life). It wasn't until my dog had panted himself to a near dead state that they called me. I could hear him choking from the front door as soon as I walked in, his tongue was a foot long and black, hanging out of his mouth and his eyes were sheer terror and non-coherent.They are incompetent with short nosed breeds, will state otherwise and say "accidents happen". No, "neglect happened" and they're lucky I haven't sued - I'm too busy paying off my emergency surgery bills and the daily dog care my dog now needs to afford a lawyer. A tip, drive a little way down McLeod Trail to Fish Creek Animal Hospital and go to a group of competent, ethical and genuinely caring, professional vets. These Ladies are incompetent and lack remorse, but, their profit margins certainly aren't suffering - just their patients Stick to the nail trims and anal gland extractions, Ladies. You certainly don't know how to give water or use a phone when a surgery goes awry. You disgust me.

I took my dog here and loved the knowledge Dr. Murphy has and shared. I have been to other vets but this was by far the most thorough initial exam. Dr. Murphy practices wholistic medicine as well as conventional so she will pull from either or both areas to ensure my dog gets the best care needed (alas my pup has allergies and a compromised immune system but the good news is that Dr. Murphy is helping her get better). We have been to homeopathic vets and conventional vets and in my opinion Dr. Murhpy is the best blending of both.
