Best animal care of any Vet practice I've ever used over my lifespan (50+) with my many cats and dogs. All staff so loving, caring and professional. Dr. Tyler is the only Vet my dog will take a treat from and she's seen quite a few. He's helped us so much the past 2 years with a difficult case. He takes the time to explain everything so you understand. Was great with our other dog as well. Our family loves him (& his staff)!! Read Less

Doctor Tyler and his team have been great with Leonard, our sick kitty. They laid out all of the options for us, their recommendation, and told us which options would yield which results. He snuggled our cat on the floor while he talked to us and made sure Leonard was comfortable. Definitely pleased with the level of care. He was willing to come in on his normal day off to help our kitty, which is amazing. He never passed us off to someone else. The only complaint I have is that one of the ladies who answers the phones called back about an appointment and was quite blunt and a little patronizing about the options we were given. We discussed this problem with Dr. Tyler and he said that shouldn't have happened. Read Less

We discovered our beloved Westie named Zoey was ill September of 2015. She got better for a while but later we found out she had bladder cancer. Dr Tyler took very good care of her down to the last day Wednesday August 10/16. That day after office hours Dr Tyler came to our home to put Zoey down. As we sat on the lawn swing by the pool Zoey eat a huge donut Dr Tyler had brought her, he gave her a sedative so she would relax and go to sleep, then the final shot. Even though it was very hard for us to do we needed to let her go. We we're able to hold her during her final moments. She was able to pass at home were she loved being outside watching everything in our yard. Dr Tyler was so kind and caring to us all, Zoey, myself and my husband. I hope I never have to go through this again but I will mostly likely be something that I will need to do again if or should I say when I get another dog. But Dr Tyler and the staff at the Sackville Animal Hospital went over and above anything I have experienced at other animal hospitals around this country. Sincerely thank you Dr TylerRead Less

Went in because my dog got bit by a deer tick. No one was there when I went in. Woman came out, didn't greet me just looked at me. I told her I had called early, handed her the tick and she walked back into the back. She then came out and said it was a deer tick. She told me to watch for limping. I asked for clarification, And she rolled her eyes at me. Her lack of empathy really disturbed me. I left with the impression she really didn't care at all. I had to call my regular vet, who told me the actually information I needed to care for my dog - if I had followed this woman's advice I might miss the signs of illness. Read Less

So as many of you know Adam and I have two bearded dragons, Apollo who is 2 and (Tiger)Lilly who is 6 months old. Sadly we did previously have another dragon, Phoenix, but she passed away. In Halifax there are 2 (1/2) vet clinics that handle exotics. Fairview Animal Hospital, and the Sackville Animal Hospital. Poor Nixie tried to lay eggs one day and well things did not go well. We needed to take her to a vet and right away! Naturally this happened on a Friday night around 11pm, and I had been previously told that the emergency vet clinic did not handle reptiles (this was misinformation), so we waited until the morning and frantically called first thing. We were able to get in to see Dr. Benjamin the exotic specialist within an Hour. Although things didn't work out for Nixie all of the staff were extremely warm and welcoming. We walked in with our tupperware container and the second they saw us they said "Oh that must be Phoenix", and you could tell they all genuinely cared about us, our lizard, and wanted to do everything in their power to help. Some of the interns who were working there stayed with her the entire time she was there, trying to make sure she ate, that her distention was properly cared for and that she was warm and as comfortable as possible. Unfortunately Dr. Benjamin was not going to be in on Sunday and Nixie needed continued care so they did all the necessary paperwork, faxed it and called ahead to the emergency Vet Clinic, so that we could transfer Nixie there (which also saved us some money as they did not have to do a full exam and assess her injury or develop a treatment plan). About a week later we received a card in the mail signed by all the staff thanking us for choosing the Sackville Animal Hospital, and then about a week after we had called them to tell them that Nixie had passed away, we received a sympathy card from them with personalized notes from all the staff. Not just signatures but real notes. I have taken many pets to many vets and have NEVER felt like the vet clinic cared so much about the animals and owners. I would very highly recommend the Sackville Animal Hospital, and will continue to make the 45 minute drive to have my dragons cared for, rather than go to the closer exotic vet because the staff are so fantastic!

Went in because my dog got bit by a deer tick. No one was there when I went in. Woman came out, didn't greet me just looked at me. I told her I had called early, handed her the tick and she walked back into the back. She then came out and said it was a deer tick. She told me to watch for limping. I asked for clarification, And she rolled her eyes at me. Her lack of empathy really disturbed me. I left with the impression she really didn't care at all. I had to call my regular vet, who told me the actually information I needed to care for my dog - if I had followed this woman's advice I might miss the signs of illness. Read Less

So as many of you know Adam and I have two bearded dragons, Apollo who is 2 and (Tiger)Lilly who is 6 months old. Sadly we did previously have another dragon, Phoenix, but she passed away. In Halifax there are 2 (1/2) vet clinics that handle exotics. Fairview Animal Hospital, and the Sackville Animal Hospital. Poor Nixie tried to lay eggs one day and well things did not go well. We needed to take her to a vet and right away! Naturally this happened on a Friday night around 11pm, and I had been previously told that the emergency vet clinic did not handle reptiles (this was misinformation), so we waited until the morning and frantically called first thing. We were able to get in to see Dr. Benjamin the exotic specialist within an Hour. Although things didn't work out for Nixie all of the staff were extremely warm and welcoming. We walked in with our tupperware container and the second they saw us they said "Oh that must be Phoenix", and you could tell they all genuinely cared about us, our lizard, and wanted to do everything in their power to help. Some of the interns who were working there stayed with her the entire time she was there, trying to make sure she ate, that her distention was properly cared for and that she was warm and as comfortable as possible. Unfortunately Dr. Benjamin was not going to be in on Sunday and Nixie needed continued care so they did all the necessary paperwork, faxed it and called ahead to the emergency Vet Clinic, so that we could transfer Nixie there (which also saved us some money as they did not have to do a full exam and assess her injury or develop a treatment plan). About a week later we received a card in the mail signed by all the staff thanking us for choosing the Sackville Animal Hospital, and then about a week after we had called them to tell them that Nixie had passed away, we received a sympathy card from them with personalized notes from all the staff. Not just signatures but real notes. I have taken many pets to many vets and have NEVER felt like the vet clinic cared so much about the animals and owners. I would very highly recommend the Sackville Animal Hospital, and will continue to make the 45 minute drive to have my dragons cared for, rather than go to the closer exotic vet because the staff are so fantastic!

We have become regulars at the Sackville Animal Hospital over the past two months since we brought home our puppy. (How many needles does a puppy need!?!) The folks at Sackville Animal Hospital have been awesome. They're very accommodating and scheduling (and rescheduling...and rescheduling) has never been a problem. Friendly, helpful, and efficient staff who gush over Rory's cuteness. Well, who wouldn't? They also have convenient hours for appointments, so getting him in during the evenings is never an issue.
