Quick to get an appointment which has saved me a ton of money over the past year. Vet herself seemed knowledgeable, she answered questions with supporting information. My pet was cared for quickly, shots caught up. I thought there was something like a dark hair in her eye and the vet examined carefully to see that it was actually pigment. The only reason for 4 instead of 5 is one of the intake gals is a little rough on the customer service skills, she was firm and loud on the fact that raw food diets are NOT recommended. Her facial expression while telling me was very serious and her tone was commanding, telling me what to do instead of telling me her recommendations with reasoning. The vet herself agreed but was kind, informative, and offered a fact sheet with the cons and kind of said “we need you to know the risks”. The vet obviously knows her customer service, but the intake gal needs to work on it as their business partially depends on bedside manners. If you don’t know your reasons, then let the vet do the recommending. It’s just a small thing, but the bad taste in my mouth made me second guess whether to come back, so it reallly is a critical piece. Read Less

Let’s start with They bribe good ratings with the promise of a free dog tag. We Went here for my dogs a couple times. This vet /the staff doesn’t remember your animals or their conditions, are not friendly, more interested in getting paid than the animal itself. Staff Always have conflicting opinions about the most simple things. Etc After my old vet in Edmonton knew every animal and was very kind and cared more about the animals than a paycheque, had reasonable prices.. I can’t do this vet. Need to look for a new one as they 1. Don’t even compare 2. Give me a bad feeling when it comes down to the care of the dogs. 3. They bribe good ratings with the promise of a free dog tag. Read Less

My Maltese is 10 years old and for the majority of his life I have brought him to the the Aurora vet clinic. The clinic is clean and I thought the service was reasonable.
Early this year my dog got sick and as usual I consulted this clinic. After multiple vet visits there was still no improvement. At one point the vet clinic even called me and suggested I cancel my dogs appointment since they weren’t sure what they could really do. I finally took my dog to another vet and found very quickly his albumin level was critically low at 10. He has been diagnosed with PLE which we are struggling to get under control still. I am very happy I got a second opinion since this condition I am being told can be life threatening. If I didn’t go to another vet when I did perhaps my dog would be dead now which is really upsetting to me. I would not recommend this vet clinic based on my experience. Read Less

We took our pride and joy into this veterinarian. They we're great to deal with and very well spoken. I found the prices are very competitive with the other veterinarians in town. Their check up was very thorough and my cat was very clam in their examining room. They sent us out with pamphlets on how to clean our Cats teeth, the gave us thorough instructions and sent us on our way.
We had appointment for 4pm and they didn't get us in until 4:22 which is a long time for our pet to wait in their cage and it can cause a lot of unnecessary stress on your pet. Their parking at this complex in terrible, that's not their fault but I could foresee that being an issue if your pet is frequently going to this location.
We plan on bringing our Cat back, I hope next time our appointment will be on time! Read Less

Terrible we usually go to another vet but this one had an opening they handled the situation completely wrong and put a muzzle on my dog who has never been violent in his life, loves everyone and goes with the flow and would not let us in the room to keep him calm 3 nurses had him pinned they didn't even tell him the lay down command and the doctor could tell he was in pain and kept playing with it and poking the wound while talking to us when he was obviously uncomfortable and wanted to stand up again.

Very disappointed with this vet clinic. My dog got her duclaws removed over 8 days ago in Edmonton, and we went to Aurora because it was the only place with openings to get her stitches removed. Before removing them, we additmently asked if they were ready to be removed because we didn't want them out too early. They assured us that it was fine. Before leaving they said, "Make sure you pay, there's a fee."
Woke up this morning and the site where her stitches were removed was completely ripped right open. clearly not ready to be removed. They were just too worried about the money. Read Less

I was incredibly impressed with how friendly and knowledgeable all the staff at this Vet Clinic were. Anything you ask them, they will surely take the time to answer honestly with all your available options, not only the most expensive options. (Biggest pet peeve when places do that!)
What drew me to this place is that they took the time to invest in the highest quality equipment and services. Nice added touch was their inclusion of free laser therapy to help aid swelling and pain after surgeries. How cool is that?!
You can just tell they genuinely love animals here. Highly recommend this place to anyone looking for top notch service. Read Less

(another family pet that had gotten out and was dropped of here without our knowing) same experience hundreds of dollars spent with no definitive answers just more required test and more money to be spent !
