Staff were very friendly and understanding of our dog's needs. Our dog is slow to warm, and depending on the person, can be reactive when being touched. The staff very respectful of her space and gave her time to warm up to them. Thank you for making this vet visit not stressful or traumatic for our dog. Read Less

With the unfortunately introduction of Rabbit hemorrhagic Disease into Canada, I had no choice but to vaccinate my buns. I took the recommendation for the West Boulevard Vet, from the lady at Vancouver Rabbit rescue. Overall, it was a pleasant experience! The counter staff were friendly and I was brought into the exam room promptly. The Vet was fantastic. She was very positive and personable. I felt like she really cared about my babies and really wanted to hear about their personalities and any concerns. I never felt rushed during the appointment. I also appreciated that I was left a message on my phone with more info regarding a question I had during the appointment. I would recommend this location to any rabbit owners out there! Read Less

This is a fantastic team! My dogs have been coming here since 1968 for a reason. The vets are knowledgeable, compassionate and sensible. My bills seem to be reasonable, even modest compared to other vets. Above all the dogs, and the humans, have been treated with so much kindness that this is one of my favourite places in the city!

Love all the staff and Doctors at West Boulevard veterinary clinic! I never have to worry about my babies here! I know they’re in the best hands and that they’re treated like family! Always recommend friends and family take their loved ones here! Read Less

Dr. Solomon was gentle, caring and professional when I brought my "little pal" in a couple of weeks ago. I appreciate her knowledge and kindness in answering all my questions. The follow-up phone call to give test results was very much appreciated. Thank you. Read Less

Very friendly service! Probably the best service that I've experienced for a veterinary clinic! Staff are very upfront and straight forward, which makes me feel at ease. While I haven't had a serious incident with my dog, the service so far gives me confidence that she would receive the proper and skilled care! Read Less

Cats have been a part of our household for more than 30 years, with this clinic providing care for all of them. Four of the six cats required no more than vaccinations and an annual routine check-up, but two had significant health problems. All our cats received individual attention and health care from the veterinarians and all staff. The clinic provides medical expertise, love for the individual animals, and information for the animals' human families about options available - this was true for us and other families. As new vets and staff joined the clinic, they honed their skills in delivering the same approach to veterinary practice that originally brought us to the clinic. We have no hesitation providing an "exceptional" review. For the past year and an half, we have been looking after an older dog while the owner recovers from serious illness. The clinic welcomed the dog as a "long term" visitor and provides monthly shots for the dog and advise to us. Very much appreciated! Read Less

Had originally had my rabbit at a different vet (which we still have our dog at) but after adopting a second rabbit, I was urged to take them both here as they specialize in small animals. Honestly, they are freaking amazing with my rabbits! One of my rabbits continues to have some issues after once ingesting plastic years ago and every time I bring him in they are incredibly friendly, patient and compassionate. Would highly recommend anyone - particularly those with small animals - to go here. They are wonderful! Read Less

There is not a better clinic for treating rabbits in all of Vancouver! We have been thrilled with the level of care that we have received from everyone at this clinic over the years. The vets are gentle with our bunnies and they take the time to thoroughly explain the treatment plan to us, as well. Read Less

The West Boulevard Veterinary Clinic completely exceeded our expectations, providing a comfortable and warm environment for ourselves and more importantly, our newly-adopted Thai Ridgeback, Pip. With Pip still weary of other dogs, everyone at the clinic made sure that her first visit was as a calming experience. Jessica, Pip's new and favourite veterinarian, also answered all of our questions, giving us peace-of-mind that what were experiencing as new dog owners was normal and to be expected. The West Boulevard Veterinary Clinic deserves the highest rating possible! Read Less

I was looking for a vet with experience with rabbits and decided to take my two rabbits to West Boulevard Veterinary Clinic after reading a lot of good reviews on the clinic. Dr. Kutney was extremely kind, patient and observant, and she spent over an hour examining my rabbits. One of my rabbits has multiple complex health issues and she asked a lot of questions to determine how to best care for her. I have seen a lot of rabbit vets over the years and she was by far the best one that I have encountered so far. The price is also very reasonable and I believe a lot cheaper than other vets based on some of the reviews that I read online and some of the vets that I've visited in the past. Dr. Kutney is highly experienced with rabbits (over 25 years) and I would highly recommend her to other rabbit owners. Read Less

First time visit for my 16 year old kitty. The staff was super friendly to me and my cat and were all very knowledgeable, helpful, and accommodating. They each had a genuine interest in their profession and in helping find a proper treatment plan for my Lil old lady. Definitely would recommend. Read Less

I've been going to West Boulevard for a very long time. They're the best vets in the city. I maybe wouldn't say my dogs run in to the office, but that's no reflection on the office, my dogs have issues. Dr Potter and her team have always given them incredible care. They make us feel like we are valued and appreciated. That's a good way to feel. Parker is large. Well, fat really. Stanley was really fat. They're really well fed. Most vets would have given up on me, but Dr Potter and the whole office continue to believe that I will learn. We shall see... Read Less

Great veterinary clinic to take your four legged family to. The vets and techs are really good and thorough. I take my guinea pigs there and the vets have always been gentle, understanding and treated them with respect. When they couldn't reach a diagnosis for my one sick piggy, despite running relevant tests and doing research, they referred me to a specialist. They sent through all the records and stayed informed on her case after the referral. This speaks of vets that care about the animals instead of just being out to make a quick buck. The front desk staff have always been friendly, efficient and caring. I really trust these people with my little ones, and that is saying a lot. Read Less

West Boulevard Vet has helped us for over 20 years to care for many moggies who have enriched our lives. The vets and assistants have always been knowledgeable, caring, and dedicated, whether in routine care or more challenging circumstances. We like and trust the WBVC team. Read Less

You know your Vets are great when your dogs actually get excited to see the door and want to rush in. We are so luck to have found this clinic as everyone takes special care with our Cairns. The care our little special needs guy gets is particularly appreciated.. he needs that extra love. Can't recommend them highly enough. Read Less

A GREAT place to take bunnies. Dr. Potter is one of the few vets in town who will see them. She truly loves them and is an expert in rabbit care. It's a trek for me to get out there but I trust her so for me it's worth it. The support staff are always professional and friendly as well. Read Less

WBVC has been taking care of our pets ever since the seventies. That includes four dogs and six cats. We've never had anything but the best experience with Janne and Sarah and the rest of the vets and staff who we've gotten to know over the years, most recently Erin. Last week, on Christmas eve, our Yorkie Lizzie gobbled down a spoonful of potato salad heavily laden with raw onions, and we were very worried. I sent an email on Christmas morning to the clinic and within a few minutes Sarah replied with helpful information and got us through the "crisis" AOK. What she told us was far more helpful than anything I found posted on the web. I don't know why, but these kinds of crises always occur around holidays. It was so kind of Sarah to help us out.

A big thank you to Dr. Potter, Dr. Rurak, Amanda, Erin and everyone at the clinic for saving Shasta. This is the best and the only animal clinic that you would want to take your pets to. The doctors and the team are very friendly and family oriented. My Shasta has visited the clinic twice for different issues. The second visit was bit of dramatic as I was prepared for the worst. Dr. Potter did not give up on my little Shasta. Both her and her team performed an experiment and saved my little furry friend. Shasta is recovering well and has back to her normal actives. i cannot express my gratitude enough for the wonderful job you have done. THANK YOU (from Mira) & XOXO (from Shasta) Read Less

I have gone to this clinic for at least 20 years now and have had nothing but the best of care for a long list of beloved pets. Many dogs, a cat, guinea pigs, rabbits, rats, and birds have all been treated with expert and loving care. They have always taken the time to answer all my questions and carefully explain treatment options. I have never been unhappy with the veterinarians or the rest of the staff. Great clinic!! Read Less

Avoid at all costs! The receptionist and support staffs were friendly, but the vets were incredibly rude and stuck up. I've never met such arrogant and condescending people...and I had to pay to bask in their smug. Read Less

Janne, Sarah, Karen and all the staff at WBVC are awesome. Have been taking our dogs, cats, and rabbits there for years. When we finally had to put down our very old dogs they were so compassionate and caring and made such a difficult time just a little bit easier. During exams they always take the time to explain everything and answer all your questions, which is reassuring when your loved one is not well. I definitely can't recommend them enough. Read Less

My old lab was given a new lease on life by having regular acupuncture treatments with Janne Potter. Not only was she able to walk more freely, but I noticed her mischievous joie de vivre return. She is now over 16 and although she is somewhat limited by her old age, she is still enjoying her walks and socializing. Read Less

If you need a Veterinarian,  see Janne Potter.  Dr. Potter is in my opinion a sweetheart who genuinely cares for the wellbeing of animals.  I brought my dog in after being referred here and I wasn't sure if I was making the right decision or not because it didn't have rave reviews unlike other places in Van.  Dr. Potter saw me immediately after I arrived (and no one noted that I was 5 minutes late) and she was very nice to my puppy.  I have been to other places where the vet treated my dog like a number that he/she could make quick money out of.  Dr. Potter and her nurse gave my dog tasty treats and patted him to make him relaxed and happy.  In fact my dog really liked her!  If this place had boarding/day care I would without doubt trust them!  The clinic is very beautiful and clean which was reassuring to me that they are very hygenic.  My dog had retained baby teeth and she didn't urge me to do the surgery right away.  Even though we came just for the purpose of discussing about teeth, she did extra examinations and her great bedside manners proved to me she was very professional.She tried to convince us on buying the science diet foods available in the vet's office but wasn't so pushy.   I can understand that is biased since she does sell those products herself, its not necessary the best choice for them.  The consultation fee is $68.  I was just a little but dissappointed they don't do simple grooming services for free (like nail trimming) Other vets I have been to offer this.  If they had this I would give 5 stars. Overall, great place! I CANNOT WAIT TO BE BACK. Read Less
