Hate leaving bad reviews but in the case I feel I have no other options.
My dog was prescribed a medication that apparently can kill her (or make her very sick) if stopped immediately. I was given 10 days of said medication and told to follow up 2 weeks later. Therefore she has been cold turkey for 4 days now. The owner was away on holidays however she said she noticed the prescription and couldn't even give us a follow up call to inform us when she noticed. She simply said "I was hoping Ruby comes for her follow up"
When I saw her today I felt that she came into the room prepared to start and argument and rather than getting answers I spent the duration trying to calm her down (raised voice, interrupting me, outright being disrespectful). I was respectful and simply trying to gather information. This was the 4th visit and I find myself having more questions than answers. I was feeling confused and simply looking for a solution.
I would not recommend this vet to anyone.
The front desk staff have always been friendly but my dog simply did not receive the attention or care she should have from the medical staff.
I can go so much more into detail but I feel my point has been made. If it is not an emergency or you are looking for a new vet I recommend seeking help elsewhere.
I look forward to building a respectful relationship with another local vet.

I brought my sick cat here 2 times for the same problem, once on Friday morning and again 3 days later on Monday morning. He was not being himself and I could tell that something was very wrong. I seen a different vet both times. I told both vets that it was a possibility that he had eaten an earplug. First vet decided to check for crystals in his urine. He said he could run other tests if I wanted but didn't sound like he thought any would be worthwhile and he thought he was fine to send home. The vet I seen on Monday suspected a bowel obstruction after doing some xrays and suggested an overnight stay with IV and force feeding as a first course of action to see if he could pass it on his own. I was not made aware of any risks of this choice of action, and I'm kicking myself for not asking questions and just taking the advice of the vet. That evening before they closed I called to check in and my cat was apparently doing well. The next morning I got a call that my cat did not make it through the night. I wrongly assumed my cat was in good hands being at the vet's office overnight, but in actuality he was left alone overnight to die. Further investigation after his death revealed that it was in fact an earplug he had eaten, just as I had said to not one but two different vets. Finally, a seemingly sympathetic receptionist tells me the cremation options ($150+ for a private cremation) on top of the $600 bill I have to pay. Fortunately I was aware that the City of Kamloops Bylaw office will do a private pet cremation for $42. Heartbroken that my healthy 4 year old cat's life was cut short by a series of wrong decisions, both on my part and the vets at this clinic.

At about 5pm on a saturday, my cat had been chased by a dog and was so scared she ran into a fence. He jaw was broken and she was clearly in a lot of pain, as her second eyelids were prolapsed and HER TOOTH WAS STICKING OUT THROUGH HER UPPER LIP??
It was an emergency, so we took her to Valleyview Veterinary Clinic. Let me remind you: it was 5pm. On a Saturday.
They took her in, but demanded we pay the 2000 dollar fee on the spot. They would not even look at her without their money.
They didn't care my cat was suffering. They just wanted their money.
This premises is into the veterinary business for the wrong reasons. Low and behold we don't go there anymore.

I had the pleasure of having my 8 year old German Shepherd taken care of by Dr. Maricle and the Wonderful Staff @ Valleyview Veterinary Clinic on Friday the 3rd of March. I had taken my boy to a local vet here in 100 mile and the care was very Shoddy. Hence I made the 2.5 hour trip down to Valleyview Veterinary. All of the Staff were pleasant - empathetic - understanding and professional. My GSD was treated with Respect and kept in touch with me through out the 7 hours of care. My Thunder had to have two teeth removed due to a fairly large cyst. I was told by the local clinic in 100 mile that my dog had cancer - however this was not true. I would recommend any one who wants a Wonderful Clinic to utilize the expertise of Dr. Maricle and Staff. I made the round trip of almost 400 km and would make it again in order to have a reputable clinic with outstanding staff who went above and beyond. I am forever thankful - Colleen McCann

First of all the vet charged me for saying, "I don't know what's wrong with your cat." Not even a suggestion on what to do with my cat throwing up. Took him to the Cat hospital, Dr. Sandy changed his food, all is back to normal. Thankyou Cat hospital, great caring people who actually know cats. Took my dog to Valley view clinic for a check up. Vet said he COULD turn me in for animal abuse if I didn't get my ADOPTED dogs teeth cleaned. He said he was sure 1 or 2 of them would have to be pulled. I felt so intimidated that I had it done. No teeth were so rotten that they had to be pulled. I just got an email from them saying they want to recheck my dog's teeth. I don't think so. I take my dog to Kamloops vet clinic now. Kathy (the vet) is awesome and very caring.

Absolutely the worst experience I've ever had at a veterinary clinic:
-doctor has a terrible bedside manner and ridiculously overcharged us for the check-up and follow-ups
-vet tech was pushy with trying to sell us something we weren't comfortable with and didn't listen to our concerns at all
-support staff was very rude and uncaring
-most expensive clinic we've ever experienced anywhere in the province
At our scheduled follow-up appointment (date/time printed right on our bill) the doctor had the nerve to say that he wasn't prepared for the second procedure because he didn't know we were coming. He acted like it was our fault, when all we did was attend the appointment that THEY scheduled. I cannot understand how they could be so unprofessional and not apologize at all.
Definitely will be going somewhere else for a second opinion. Extremely disappointed in the huge amount of money we wasted at this clinic.

I am so angry with the two dark haired girls. The young one, and the new one. They are rude and they don't care about my cat. I don't trust them not to hurt or mistreat my cat. Be aware everyone.
I took my cat there, to Stephanie, the new vet, she did the follow up. We talked about medicine for my cat. She no longer works there, I just found out. The two girls wouldn't let me get the medicine for my cat. I talked to Bruce, whom originally saw my cat. They don't care about my cats, I could hear the older girl, tell the young girl not to give me the medicine. I was so embarrassed. It is not my fault that the vet doesn't not work there anymore. I understand why if she had to put up with those two girls. The young girl had no clue what she was doing. I emailed them with no response back. They didn't make it right. I wouldn't trust them with any animals. They owe me an apology, but of course they won't. I am glad Diane is back, she cares. We are now going up there. She is an amazing vet, and I am so happy!!!!!!!

That evening before they closed I called to check in and my cat was apparently doing well. The next morning I got a call that my cat did not make it through the night. I wrongly assumed my cat was in good hands being at the vet's office overnight, but in actuality he was left alone overnight to die. Further investigation after his death revealed that it was in fact an earplug he had eaten, just as I had said to not one but two different vets. Finally, a seemingly sympathetic receptionist tells me the cremation options ($150+ for a private cremation) on top of the $600 bill I have to pay. Fortunately I was aware that the City of Kamloops Bylaw office will do a private pet cremation for $42. Heartbroken that my healthy 4 year old cat's life was cut short by a series of wrong decisions, both on my part and the vets at this clinic.

At about 5pm on a saturday, my cat had been chased by a dog and was so scared she ran into a fence. He jaw was broken and she was clearly in a lot of pain, as her second eyelids were prolapsed and HER TOOTH WAS STICKING OUT THROUGH HER UPPER LIP??
It was an emergency, so we took her to Valleyview Veterinary Clinic. Let me remind you: it was 5pm. On a Saturday.
They took her in, but demanded we pay the 2000 dollar fee on the spot. They would not even look at her without their money.
They didn't care my cat was suffering. They just wanted their money.
This premises is into the veterinary business for the wrong reasons. Low and behold we don't go there anymore.

I had the pleasure of having my 8 year old German Shepherd taken care of by Dr. Maricle and the Wonderful Staff @ Valleyview Veterinary Clinic on Friday the 3rd of March. I had taken my boy to a local vet here in 100 mile and the care was very Shoddy. Hence I made the 2.5 hour trip down to Valleyview Veterinary. All of the Staff were pleasant - empathetic - understanding and professional. My GSD was treated with Respect and kept in touch with me through out the 7 hours of care. My Thunder had to have two teeth removed due to a fairly large cyst. I was told by the local clinic in 100 mile that my dog had cancer - however this was not true. I would recommend any one who wants a Wonderful Clinic to utilize the expertise of Dr. Maricle and Staff. I made the round trip of almost 400 km and would make it again in order to have a reputable clinic with outstanding staff who went above and beyond. I am forever thankful - Colleen McCann

The staff from the front desk, to the vet techs and Dr. Maricle are amazing. Very caring, professional, honest and thorough. Never pushy but always recommending the best approach for our dogs. And when we lost one of our pups they were very supportive providing us reading material and sending a post card. Couldn't ask for a better team!

Bad experience! I do not recommend this clinic. They were rude and didn't update in regards to status of the pet or billing prosse!

First of all the vet charged me for saying, "I don't know what's wrong with your cat." Not even a suggestion on what to do with my cat throwing up. Took him to the Cat hospital, Dr. Sandy changed his food, all is back to normal. Thankyou Cat hospital, great caring people who actually know cats. Took my dog to Valley view clinic for a check up. Vet said he COULD turn me in for animal abuse if I didn't get my ADOPTED dogs teeth cleaned. He said he was sure 1 or 2 of them would have to be pulled. I felt so intimidated that I had it done. No teeth were so rotten that they had to be pulled. I just got an email from them saying they want to recheck my dog's teeth. I don't think so. I take my dog to Kamloops vet clinic now. Kathy (the vet) is awesome and very caring.

Absolutely the worst experience I've ever had at a veterinary clinic:
-doctor has a terrible bedside manner and ridiculously overcharged us for the check-up and follow-ups
-vet tech was pushy with trying to sell us something we weren't comfortable with and didn't listen to our concerns at all
-support staff was very rude and uncaring
-most expensive clinic we've ever experienced anywhere in the province
At our scheduled follow-up appointment (date/time printed right on our bill) the doctor had the nerve to say that he wasn't prepared for the second procedure because he didn't know we were coming. He acted like it was our fault, when all we did was attend the appointment that THEY scheduled. I cannot understand how they could be so unprofessional and not apologize at all.
Definitely will be going somewhere else for a second opinion. Extremely disappointed in the huge amount of money we wasted at this clinic.

I am so angry with the two dark haired girls. The young one, and the new one. They are rude and they don't care about my cat. I don't trust them not to hurt or mistreat my cat. Be aware everyone.
I took my cat there, to Stephanie, the new vet, she did the follow up. We talked about medicine for my cat. She no longer works there, I just found out. The two girls wouldn't let me get the medicine for my cat. I talked to Bruce, whom originally saw my cat. They don't care about my cats, I could hear the older girl, tell the young girl not to give me the medicine. I was so embarrassed. It is not my fault that the vet doesn't not work there anymore. I understand why if she had to put up with those two girls. The young girl had no clue what she was doing. I emailed them with no response back. They didn't make it right. I wouldn't trust them with any animals. They owe me an apology, but of course they won't. I am glad Diane is back, she cares. We are now going up there. She is an amazing vet, and I am so happy!!!!!!!
