We brought our dog in for a complicated orthopedic surgery and we couldn't be happier! He had a TPLO and tightrope, and my husband and I were worried because there are some risks with this surgery. Dr. Rocheleau was kind and devoted, both before and after, and the outcome was better than we expected. His follow-up was thorough too. We could tell this veterinarian really cared about what was best for Buddy, and he took the time to explain the surgery and healing process in great detail. My husband really liked that he got to the point but still involved us in the decisions. This vet explains everything so we know where our money is going, and we have no regrets. Thank you to the wonderful staff too. We’ve recommended you to our friends and family. Buddy looks forward to seeing you all in October. -NB Read Less

Unreal I called ahead of time and had my dogs file sent over as I had already ran multiple tests and no one could tell me why my dogs tongue was paralyzed. I asked if he thought he could do anything before with this case before I made the hour trip to his office. Money grab us all this guy isabout. Cost me 1500 for no answers once again. He ran a CT scan which told us nothing. He tells us I’m a north vet that’s my specialty come back when your ready for a hip replacement, which is another separate issue that we were dealing with. Obviously the tongue issue and my dog joy being able to eat or drink was my first concern. All this guy was concerned with was showing me his “cool toys” 3D printer for ortho use. My poor dog was screaming in the back when he woke up. They tried to hand my dog off to me with the catheter still in. My dog yelled and screamed for about 10 minutes . He was sore and couldn’t move for days afterwards. Don’t waste your money on this guy, he has no idea what he’s doing and has no compassion whatsoever. Wasn’t bothered in the least that my poor dog was screaming In Pain in the back. Blamed it on the staff trying to touch him. Horrible veterinarian. He then books me a referral in Toronto for literally the next day without confirming with me. Now two months later when my dog has finally recovered from the tongue paralysis I call to look into a hip replacement. He then has the nerve to deny me because I didn’t go to Toronto the very next day after my previous appointment. It’s not like I didn’t call ahead of time and advise The Toronto vet that I couldn’t make it. Horrible customer service. I will take my hard earned money to Guelph where the professionals are for a hip replacement. I personally think he really has no idea what he’s doing and probably would have screwed up my dogs hips even more. Nice game reviews for the first 5-10 reviews keep going down the list and see for yourself how horrible the reviews are on this guy. On a side note when I mentioned the bad reviews that the Toronto vet had that he referred me to, he had the nerve to say that people who leave reviews are mostly mentally challenged. Real jerk this guy is, don’t waste your time!!!!! Read Less

I cannot begin to express my gratitude to Dr. Rocheleau and his wonderful team at the Espanola Animal Hospital. Three weeks ago I bought my furbaby in because he had a massive herniated disc.
The day after surgery he was walking a bit and has progressed to the point of nearly running now. The care and understanding by everyone involved was extraordinary, even providing me with a room to sit with my dog for a few hours to comfort him the day after the surgery.

This is the worst animal hospital I have been to in many years. Dr. Rocheleau is so full of himself. He spent the entire consult complaining about past patients and bragging about himself. Our dog ended up with an infection following surgery and despite following instructions to the T it was our fault and we were told not to return. I also find it very sad that looking through the rest of these google reviews, the only positive ones are from staff of the hospital or their family including Kali, Stephanie, Doreen, Shane, and Samantha. Very sad. I should have listened to my friends and the other google reviews and stayed away! Read Less

He acts like he is knowledgeable but is truly incompetent and has some of the highest rates of postoperative infections and complications than any other referral hospital. He will prolong your animals suffering unnecessarily for an extra dime. He is constantly bad talking previous clients, if you have any complication with surgery it will be your fault not his.

My toy breed dog recently broke his leg, I immediately brought him to the emergency service at another animal hospital in the greater sudbury area. . At that time the doctor had told that my single and only option would be to have surgery which was only offered in Toronto. The way he reacted when I told him I wanted a second opinion, I knew something wasn't right... heartbroken, I took my dog home bandaged with pain medication to determine what I could possibly do... My dod had unnecessarily been left with a broken leg. So here's the turn around to this story..... I called the Espanola Hospital Clinic, and explained my situation on the phone to Dr. Pj , i had my dog to the clinic within two hours after that phone call. The staff is so compassionate and caring to there patients and there parents, and take the time to fully inform and explain everything to you. Not only did my dog get the surgery required to fix his leg with continued follow ups and treatment, they truly go above and beyond . Thank you Dr.PJ and team !

I cannot begin to express my gratitude to Dr. Rocheleau and his wonderful team at the Espanola Animal Hospital. Three weeks ago I bought my furbaby in because he had a massive herniated disc.
The day after surgery he was walking a bit and has progressed to the point of nearly running now. The care and understanding by everyone involved was extraordinary, even providing me with a room to sit with my dog for a few hours to comfort him the day after the surgery. They put my mind at ease from the moment I walked through the door the first time and once again Thankyou, Thankyou, Thankyou.
This place is fantastic. Read Less

This is the worst animal hospital I have been to in many years. Dr. Rocheleau is so full of himself. He spent the entire consult complaining about past patients and bragging about himself. Our dog ended up with an infection following surgery and despite following instructions to the T it was our fault and we were told not to return. I also find it very sad that looking through the rest of these google reviews, the only positive ones are from staff of the hospital or their family including Kali, Stephanie, Doreen, Shane, and Samantha. Very sad. I should have listened to my friends and the other google reviews and stayed away! Read Less

PJ is a complete narcissist and knows better then every other vet/ research article. He acts like he is knowledgeable but is truly incompetent and has some of the highest rates of postoperative infections and complications than any other referral hospital. He will prolong your animals suffering unnecessarily for an extra dime. He is constantly bad talking previous clients, if you have any complication with surgery it will be your fault not his. He treats his staff like garbage and is a horrible human being. If you care about your pet, spend the extra money and head to Guelph you wont regret it! Read Less

My toy breed dog recently broke his leg, I immediately brought him to the emergency service at another animal hospital in the greater sudbury area. . At that time the doctor had told that my single and only option would be to have surgery which was only offered in Toronto. The way he reacted when I told him I wanted a second opinion, I knew something wasn't right... heartbroken, I took my dog home bandaged with pain medication to determine what I could possibly do... My dod had unnecessarily been left with a broken leg. So here's the turn around to this story..... I called the Espanola Hospital Clinic, and explained my situation on the phone to Dr. Pj , i had my dog to the clinic within two hours after that phone call. The staff is so compassionate and caring to there patients and there parents, and take the time to fully inform and explain everything to you. Not only did my dog get the surgery required to fix his leg with continued follow ups and treatment, they truly go above and beyond . Thank you Dr.PJ and team ! Worth the drive out of town! -forever grateful!Read Less

This animal hospital is excellent for everything from routine physicals, to complex, emergency cases requiring immediate surgery. If you follow their Facebook page, you'll get a glimpse of some of the incredible work they do! Nothing seems to shake Dr. Rocheleau and his staff, despite often having to act quickly during unexpected, emergency situations. Don't let the small-town location fool you; This hospital's name is known all over Canada, America, and even Europe, for its high-end equipment, and Dr. Rocheleau's highly-skilled and perfected orthopedic surgery techniques. I've been a client for a while now, and I always recommend EAH to family and friends in need of a consistently great animal hospital. If you become a client, you will not be disappointed. Read Less

Our Newf Shepherd Jackson had the absolute best care from Dr. PJ and his staff when Jack needed TPLO surgery on both legs, 4 weeks apart. He is at 12 weeks and 8 weeks post op and doing incredible. They were patient with my many questions and PJ explained the surgery in detail so we knew exactly what to expect with the recovery. Jackson barely limped even with both legs done and the only way people know he had surgery is his funky haircut on his back end. Thank you so much for your incredible skill and genuine love of what you do for animals. I would trust you with my sweet dogs anytime. Read Less

Thank you guys so much for taking in and fixing our kitten when she broke her leg. Most of the vets in sudbury turned us away in an emergency and the one we did get into made it seem like we either had to put her down or spend an ubsurd amount of money in toronto guelph or ottawa. We were very happy that you guys took her in after hours on short notice and were very willing to take on the challenge of repairing a bad break in a tiny cat. The whole staff and doctor have been very wonderful and we couldnt have asked for better service during and after the ordeal. Thanx again. Read Less
