My dog had her half priced annual shots and Dr. S. suggested a blood panel even thought my older dog was feeling fine. I was annoyed at myself as it was over $200.00. However he called the next day to have me come to see him as my dogs liver tests were elevated. She needed an ultrasound right away and then special bloodwork for the liver..... talk of a mass which he said would be an operation. I was in tears and devastated with the news. However I decided that we would see another vet as my Dog hates Dr. S. And someone who would do palliative care. And found a couple but when the first one saw the blood panel she told me there was nothing wrong with my dog. NOTHING. And the only thing she would suggest is a repeat in perhaps 6 months but not needed if she was feeling well. The second vet said the same thing. Needless to say we will not be going back.....I wasn't looking for a second opinion I just wanted a gentle caring vet. Read Less

We have had to visit 48th Ave Animal Hospital frequently this last month as we are transporting a couple cats to New Zealand. All the staff and the Vet have been amazing and patient to help us through the process. Their advice has been helpful and have been very flexible with our needs (which can become difficult being that the country import laws in NZ being very strict And precise).

Two years ago, I met the staff at 48th Avenue Animal Hospital. They have me with two kittens imported from Alberta, and my new (now one year old) long haired chihuaua. They have been so helpful answering my many questions, and so kindly helped when one of my kittens escaped outside their office. Looking in the area and alerting others. Happily we miraculously found the kitten over a month later. The staff is kind, caring, and services are affordable for the average person on a budget! Thank you all. Read Less

Friendly & helpful front desk staff. I'm always so impressed that they know my dogs name without asking when I come in to get prescription dog food. My dog had to have a small procedure last year and I was very impressed with the vets calm, informative demeanor. Also loved that they called to check in and see how recovery was going after he came home. Easy to make an appointment and love that they open late so I don't have to take time off work to bring my dog in. Read Less

Turns out my new kitty has a bad case of fleas. He is black to it was hard to see at first. The gal at the front desk was so kind and understanding. She called the previous vet in Washington State to get all of the old medical records and talked me through some of my concerns as I waited. The Dr. was lovely. Calm and kind, and my cat was like butter in his hands. I am delighted to know such caring people are here in my community to help me with my cat! Read Less

Any time there's something wrong with my pets, he has no clue what it could be and doesn't say ANYTHING in the room, he makes you suggest all the possible things you've petMD'd.

Dr. Sharma is great, wont take my pets anywhere else. When my friend's dog (very large dog) had a mystery illness, they did everything to do to help her. He understood that money does not grow on trees, and sent out her prescriptions to a pharmacy to help keep costs down. The assistants are friendly. Even told us he sat with the Nollster at night and hand fed her.We have taken her to other clinics and she was terrified to go in, let alone stay without trying to drag us out the door, Being a 112lb dog she could drag people around. She walks in and looks to the ladies for treats and wants to explore. My cats and ferrets are my fur babies, and will only trust him from now on.Thank you, for such awesome treatment of our Nollie.
