I've been taking my cat here weekly for 3 years for saline drips to prevent her kidney failure from getting worse. The staff are friendly, compassionate and skilled, and I never have to sit and wait. The reasonable pricing is a big plus too! Read Less

We’ve been taking our pets there since we adopted each of them. Never had anything bad to say about the team at Danforth Vet! The staff is friendly, knowledgeable and kind, and the vets (esp. Dr. Au) are amazing! I own a grooming shop, and when I have a client looking for a vet for their pet, I always refer them to Danforth! Read Less

This place is well located, pricing is good and generally the staff is friendly. I would love to be able to write a 5 star review for this place but unfortunately my first experience left me feeling a little cold. Where I got a little turned off is when I was with the vet my little pup who has only ever been to the vet once got slightly snappy (no contact just a "stop poking me" nip that didn't even make contact). The vet essentially blamed it on my dogs breed and that they were unpredictable and kind of insinuated that my dog was dangerous and might need to be muzzled which she absolutely is not and does not. At this point I may or may not go back but being someone who has worked as/with breeders I don't really appreciate the stereotyping of any breed. I have seen many a dog go off from stereotypically family breeds and have met more sweet wonderful dogs from "dangerous" breeds than I can count. Also keep in mind that she had done a very cursory introduction with my dog before she started poking at her; barely a sniff period or a pat. I wasn't super surprised that the dog got fed up. Had she acknowledged that behaviour any other way than to call out her breed I would have been totally down, my dog was definitely not as polite as I have seen her be on that particular day. The dog is a brand new rescue, would that not be a more likely cause? Perhaps the fact she is in a brand new place on a cold table surrounded by the smell of 100 other dogs and a stranger sticking stuff in her mouth/eyes/ears could have been a contributing factor? It was just such a faux-pas and it really rubbed me the wrong way. Read Less

This vet used to be great - now no one cares! Paid for tests and had to follow-up many times to speak with vet about results. Then they FORGOT to run one test we paid for. Our poor cat has been sick for 3 weeks waiting for this vet to help her - we are off to a new vet!! Save you money and go to a vet clinic that cares about your animal more than your wallet!!! Read Less

We used the clinic many times, which was located only minutes from where we lived at the time and found Dr. Au and Dr. Elmhirst excellent vets who treated Juliette, our very active and anxious Yorkshire Terrier with the care she needed from when we got her at 5 months old. After we moved we continued using DVC until the time and distance it took to get there caused motion sickness in our dog, therefore we had to find a closer vet, however we wanted to thank the veterinarians, technicians and support staff at the clinic and note they did not lose a patient because of the care, facilities or staff, it was simply logistics.

The staff are always warm and friendly. They are kind, respectful and they always take such good care of my pup and I. They know that her health and happiness are my main concern and they don't take advantage of that fact. I can't thank them enough, you can tell they love what they do, and that animals are their lives! Read Less

I am always delighted with the care and available attendants to assist while tending to my much beloved companion over the past 8 years. I am prepared to pay a little extra for superior care; if required. Read Less

I recently had my beloved, older cat put down. The entire staff at the Danforth Veterinary Clinic gave good counsel and was incredibly compassionate throughout the process. I cannot recommend this clinic highly enough. Read Less

Honestly so disappointed with how overpriced they are. Went in for a check up and asked for the price of a tooth cleaning, and was told it would be 400-500 $ because my dog had mild plaque buildup. Booked the tooth cleaning and they wouldn't tell me how much it would cost, had to have ANOTHER checkup and blood work drawn to get the estimate at 830 dollars!!! Thats double what I was told previously. WAAAAAY overpriced and will never bring my dog here again. Read Less

They have always treated our cats with professional yet compassionate care, and were very supportive of my boyfriend and I through my older cat's sickness and eventual passing. It is obvious in how they interact with the clinic animals and their pet parents that all of the staff here are true animal lovers. Read Less

I couldn't be happier with the level of experience, professionalism and caring nature of this vet clinic. Dr. Au is amazing and explained everything to ensure results of the wellness of my cat. The young ladies, Ashley, Tabitha and Victoria at the front that make it all happen are fantastic friendly and make you feel comfortable. Thank you everything!!! I wish I could rate them with 10 stars!!! Read Less

This is the best veterinary clinic in Toronto (and surrounding area), period.We've brought our two cats here, under the care of Dr. Au and her incredible staff (the best!),  nearly 14 years ago and have had exemplary service and zero concerns.Throughout that time, we've always been treated fairly with frank and open discussions about treatment options. The staff are amazing and our cats almost feel at home coming here for annual visits. Our cats are  alive and healthy at 17yo and 16yo  and we have this clinic and Dr Au to thank for taking such great care of them and providing quality advice and service to us over the years. Now that we've moved to the US, I can only hope to find a premier veterinary clinic and staff such as this one in my new City. If you have the ability to move your pets to this clinic, take the time and do so - well worth it. Read Less

I, thankfully, have never had an issue at this clinic. The only problem is the overselling. The last straw was when my dog was fixed, I was given a bill for close to 700.00 then they wanted to charge me for the cone on top of that. Really? You can't just throw that in for good measure. It kind of turned me off. Read Less

After several years of being hounded for feces tests during vacinations (and declining my cat was fine) I came to need blood tests for medication. Once diagnosed the vet clinic insisted we have blood tests every 6 months otherwise they would withold the medication. 200 bucks a pop.or 400 bucks a year.  Exthorting funds for what became very clear totally unnessesary testing. Hey i get it, they are running a business.Testing your pet when something is obviously wrong makes sense. When everything  is A-Okay? Taking our pet and our money elsewhere. Read Less

Have to go with 5 stars thanks the amazing care that our animals have received from both Dr. Au and Dr. Elmhirst.  Both vets are happy to answer any questions, and have responded quickly whenever we had a serious concern.  Support staff at the Clinic have also been great and very patient with us and our pets!I would definitely recommend to anyone looking for an excellent vet clinic.

I've gone through many vet clinics in my 22 years of being a pet owner. Too many clinics try to squeeze in procedures to make an extra buck, or are just plain crusty. This clinic does/is neither of those things and I'll never change again :).Dr. Elmhirst is very knowledgeable and it's instantly obvious she has a love of what she does and for her furry patients. My puppy (Sacha) didn't even flinch when she took her blood and couldn't stop giving her kisses. She also did her spay and aside from being a little groggy right after Sacha recovered almost instantly.I recommend this clinic to everyone Sacha and I meet on our dog walks. Read Less

Unlike several people who have reviewed this clinic, I was not impressed with the demeanor of Dr. Au. I found her to be insensitive & not at all thorough in explaining what was going on with my pet.On the other hand, we found Dr.Grant to be attentive, personable & kind with my pet.  She asked a lot of questions & gave us a thorough explanation of her findings. The staff were friendly & gentle with my pet(s) whenever we went there.  I think overall, a great clinic.  I would not choose, however, Dr. Au in the future.  Dr. Grant will be our only choice.

Stay away! Unless your pet has a minor problem that can be easily diagnosed and treated, stay away. Once you paid your money, you will get no follow up care or call back from the vet if you have a question or a concern. We ended up dealing with two doctors, not one, and with several staff, each saying different things. After a lot of money, we were back to square one, looking for another vet who would be able to help our pet and who would have professional staff and service. Being nice is not helpful to a sick animal. It takes care and knowledge.After spending $900 at this clinic and getting nowhere, I finally diagnosed the problem myself by way of research on symptoms. I then went to the Leslieville Animal Hospital where I received great, professional service, antacid pills for acid reflux (that was the diagnosis), after which my pet got better:) There is little else to say but about the comparative cost: the re-check at Leslieville is free up to 20 minutes - I paid $54 plus tax at the Danforth clinic for a few- minute re-check that led to nothing. I was also sold an appetite enhancement pill (one at a time, so I paid the dispensing fee twice) for nearly $22 plus tax EACH - I was told that the dispensing fee was high. My pet needed that pill so I had no choice. I was astonished when I paid only $17 plus tax for THREE of the same pills at the Leslieville clinic. The mark up on this fee at the Danforth clinic is unbelievable and unethical! People feel that have no choice but to pay, because they don`t want their pets to die.Up to you to decide where you would rather go with your sick pet... Read Less

Truly the best vet in the world!  Dr. Au is amazing with the animals and so friendly.  She gets right down on their level and is so kind.  My dog actually LIKES going to the vet!  She takes her time with each client and explains everything very thoroughly.  No matter how many questions, and trust me I've asked some dumb ones, she answers them until you understand.The support staff are so kind and VERY sweet.  They know all of the animals by name and even know their personalities.  When my dog Finn tested positive for heartwood, it was a false positive.  But this had happened two years in a row and the team at the Danforth Vet Clinic dealt with the drug company directly, saving me time and hassle.  Their hours are great, their prices are very reasonable.  The clinic is very clean and each room is cleaned after each visit.  They have just added another Doctor to help with the demand.  Their pet scale is probably in the best location.  It's easy access for the animals and is open enough that you can stand to clam down your animal if they are scared.All I can say is amazing!
