I have not have a good experience with Centennial Animal Hospital. A year ago, i adopted a dog from the city and i had to go to the centennial animal hospital, due to the settings to neuter a dog under the city of winnipeg and centennial animal hospital, there is no fluids, pain medication, blood tests and a cone to prevent licking post surgery. I have not complaints of the vetenarian who i did not even meet even though I paid for everything else except the 50 some dollars they charge for the procedure. the cone given to my dog did not completely covered the length of the face so he could lick his privates, i phoned asking questions and i was told to address them with the city of winnipeg pound services. Recently, i went for the annual check up of the same dog where i take all my dogs and the vet did not know a rabies vaccines for three years had been given at the centennial animal hospital because the records from Centennial did not have an expiration date written on it. I phoned yesterday Centennial animal hospital and person I spoke with said he was going to leave a message for her manager so she was supposed to call. I had not received a phone call by mid morning so I called her in. Diane has that condescending attitude blaming the staff where I regularly take my pets. A year ago, I saw one of the front desk staff picking weeds from the front lawn of the clinic, and i saw one of the girls at the front not being very nice to other staff at the front. I hope other might have a better interaction with the front staff of this clinic because it does not breath polite or customer service friendly. Read Less

I adopted my cats from the Winnipeg Humane Society shortly after moving to Winnipeg, but wasn't sure where to take them for veterinary care because I was new to the city and didn't have many people to get referrals from. I live down near U of M so I went around to a few vet hospitals in the area to check prices and services and found that Centennial offered the most comprehensive pet care in the area and did it all with reasonable pricing. At our first appointment we met Dr Paetkau and loved her immediately. She's made us feel most welcome and appreciated as new clients. She took a nice amount of time to examine my cats and worked so patiently with their idiosyncrasies! She is clearly very knowledgeable and willing to share her knowledge by thoroughly explaining various treatment options in a way that is easy to understand. We have since become regular clients of Dr. Paetkau's and always look forward to seeing her (well, maybe me more than the kitties). Our visits always feel very personalized. The hospital is very clean and spacious, the hours are extensive, and the hospital runs in a timely and efficient manner (we never end up waiting in the waiting room). The office staff and vet techs are also very attentive, courteous, and helpful. I also appreciate the variety of services offered at the hospital. Beyond typical veterinary services, they offer laser surgery, boarding, grooming, day care, and free nutrition/weight management services. One of my cats is overweight and the nutritionist has been very helpful with advising us on appropriate interventions to prevent further weight gain. I have also boarded my cats here during the day while having work done on my house and was happy with the boarding service. Centennial is the BEST and I highly recumbent them! Read Less

Contacted Dr Hickling, because she came highly recommended for the needs of our animal rescue. I was able to get an appointment ASAP with a special soul, The appointment took place on her lunch, so very kind. The staff was helpful, caring and relaxed(key for animals), facility awesome. Very quick and resourceful. I will for sure be back and again Thank You from the depths of gratitude. Read Less

We only did grooming for our cat here and they did a super job. Our cat is a longhair and had a few pretty bad mats but we didn't want to get him a lion haircut. So at Centennial Animal Hospital they were able to keep most of his coat on and get rid of all mats. They did only gentle haircut as I asked that turned out really amazing. The cat wasn't stressed and seems to feel good about his new look. Don't know what shampoo they use there for bathing but nice smell stayed for a few days! Great experience, definitely will come back again. Read Less

Vet service is amazing! We love Dr. Hickling and she is very knowledgeable. We choose this vet for our bunny because they're held in high regards for bunny care. BUT!! This 1 star is for the boarding center specifically. They may be good with dogs and cats, but they shouldn't have made it sound like they're experienced with bunnies, or particularly special needs bunnies. We left our happy, active handicap bunny (spine injury) there for a week while we were out of town and basically, whatever "care" he received there took about a year and a half of physical rehab away and left him in a poorly lethargic mental state. He was able to stand on all 4 legs before we left him there. His hind legs were back to near-useless (one was back to zero response), he was extremely lethargic, his eyes looked like he was doped up (i don't think he was but that was his appearance), and he wasn't pooping or eating. Hubby took him to the vet the next morning to make sure he wasn't about to die (bunnies health states are fragile and we didn't know how long he had been in that declined state) so we had a lovely and unexpected vet bill and special diet food to pay for. His mental state has recovered but his legs still have a ways to go before they're back to the way they were before we dropped him off. The boarding staff assumed zero responsibility for the severe decline of our bunny's health. NEVER, EVER leaving our dear bunny with the boarding staff again!! Pics are of after about a week of critical care syringe feeding and he was finally pooping again. Legs still need rehab. Edit after response: The boarding facility did not contact me regarding the issue. I contacted them first by email to which i received no reply so i called them a few days after the email. By the end of my last phone call when it was clear they weren't going to do anything, i said i was going to be posting reviews about this and the lady on the phone threatened to charge me with slander if i posted my reviews. It's not slander if it's true. Read Less

My cat had a soar on his neck and I took him there at the Centennial Animal Hospital. The vet gave me an antibiotic cream to apply on it as it's due to allergies perhaps "food", within a weeks time the soars were 95% heal. He should be 100 % cured soon ,so I higly recommend this hospital as I am quite pleased with the service, thank you kindly for taking care of my cat. Read Less

I had very sick pupper on my hands, and even though this isn't my regular veterinarian, it's is the only one open on a Sunday, so I had to go. The care and attention we received was second to none! If this vet was closer to my home, I wouldn't hesitate to make them my regular. Thank you to the staff for making us feel comfortable and cared for :) Read Less

I had a gecko emergency and when I called in that morning the staff got me in between Dr. Hickling's surgeries! When I went in I did not feel rushed because of how busy she was and had a great manner with my little Brownie. She took the time to show me how to give my gecko his needle meds since I had never done it and she was sooo nice! I really liked her and did not make me feel like I was a bad lizard mommy just because Brownie had a booboo. Instead she was glad I got him in so fast instead of letting the situation get worse and then brining him in. Even the vet assistants were fantastic! Everyone was so nice. I also loved how cozy the inside was. When you walk in it is open and very clean! And everyone is smiling! I also liked the rooms were also cozy and clean! They had couches and cute pics on the walls (you know instead of the stark white uncozy rooms most vets opt for) I have/will tell everyone about my time here and tell everyone that they should (especially if you have any sort of exotic animal or pocket pet) to go there since it was a very positive environment! Thank you so much for helping out my lil baby Brownie! Tania Read Less

Two times now Dr. Hickling has helped us in getting our Conure Pineapple back from what I was sure was near death, Dr. Hickling is patient, knowledgeable, understanding and always takes her time with us. You can tell she cares dearly for our little avian family member. Even after what we know was likely a long stressful day she gave us all the time we needed. The staff has always been able to get us in on short notice as well. Thanks for being there, hopefully this time we can fend of this illness for good. Read Less

On November 30 my family and I had to make one of the hardest decisions a pet owner could have to make. Our beloved Lab Sheppard cross Patrick was ready to give up his fight with cancer. As a family we brought him to Centennial Animal Hospital to lay him to rest. The staff that was on that day showed tremendous compassion and made us feel at ease with our decision. We would like to give a special thank you to Dr. Pat Hunt who confirmed we were making the best decision for Patrick, which made saying goodbye easier knowing we had done all we could. This experience was made easier because of the people who were there that night, were it not for you our family would have had an even tougher time that night. Thank you so much for your kindness and compassion. The McInnes family Read Less

A great place to take your furry family member. Dr Goodridge ... Awesome! He always takes the time listen to us and treats us extremely well, whether its the annual boosters or dressing up as Santa for Christmas picture he goes above and beyond for his clients. The entire staff are always very friendly and great to deal with. I've been a client for over 10 years and recommend Centennial Animal Hospital to all our family and friends. Read Less

My family has taken our pets to Centennial for 20+ yrs. Once I got my own dogs, I continued the tradition. I've always been happy with their service, friendliness of the staff, & the facility. I can't comment on pricing as I've never gone anywhere else to compare.I recently had one of my dogs become ill. He was almost 14 so I knew he didn't have much longer. I followed Dr. Goodridge's recommendations for standard testing, nothing over the top. While waiting to get in elsewhere for an ultrasound some bloodwork came back which indicated he probably had cancer. He quickly declined over the holidays then one morning he just couldn't stand and wouldn't eat. It was time. I took him in & Dr. Goodridge administered a sedative then euthanized him. Throughout this experience Dr. Goodridge made time for me to explain the situation, made himself available over the holidays, and even called me on New Year's day to check on my dog. I will continue to use Centennial for the support they provided during this hard process. Read Less

We have been going to see Dr Goodridge for over 20 years, for both our cat and several dogs. Compassionate care with consideration for both our pets and our finances are the hallmarks for this Vet.  We would never go anywhere else Read Less
