Dr. Simon is a dedicated and heartfelt vet. Having used other vets in the area he does not try to up-sell services or unnecessary medications. He has treated our pets for over a year after we were discouraged and disheartened by several local vets who seem to live on up-sellling and tests that they have to send away. Dr. Simon and his staff do most everything in-house which leads to faster diagnosis and treatment. This type of vet hospital is unfortunately becoming fewer and far between.
Oh and he still takes emergency calls. Try that with your vet. Read Less

I just had my kitty in for a simple blood test to check her thyroid; I’ll never return. We sat in the exam room for 10 minutes waiting for the vet, this is after taking her out of the comfort of her carrier to weigh her, which was just enough time to get my kitty all worked up about being there. They took blood from her neck which is normal, but didn’t shave her fur but did soak it on alcohol. I mean soak it. She’s a long haired cat so even after I cleaned it at home, she’ll still be licking a lot of it off herself (so puking is in her future). They didn’t hold her neck up long enough, allowing her to put her head down while the needle was still in. I came home in tears. Read Less

I was recommended to Dr.Simon by a friend and I am very pleased with the care he and his wonderful staff have given my two little boys Buddy and Ben.

I highly recommend Parksville Animal Hospital for great care for your lovely pets. Cheers Read Less

A very special thank you to Dr Simon, Gabrielle and all the staff at the hospital. We've owned pets for over 40 years and haven't found a vet that's as caring and compassionate as well as being very knowledgeable. Thanks sincerely for all you did for Toro, our cat. We have never had an experience with any of our previous vets that could compare to what you did for him. If we could, we'd give you a hundred stars. Read Less
