Gagemount Animal Hospital

Falsely advertises acceptance of exotic pets. Website states they accept "mice, rats, hedgehogs, ferrets and other exotic pets", yet when I called to inquire what the other exotic pets consisted of the respetionist replied, "things like mice, hedgehogs and hamsters; no birds or reptiles, though." Utterly ridiculous. Read Less

Dr. Keir as well as Janis have been awesome with Winnie. I can tell they have nothing but the best interest for the animals that come in. Front reception staff is very friendly and welcoming. I always show up early to my appointments and they help me right away. Excellent service at gagenount. Read Less

So happy that we switched to Gagemount & just in the nick of time too! 6 months after the switch both of our dogs needed care, it was very reassuring to know that we had this team with us every step of the way and it was clear they only had the best interests of our dogs in mind. (Unlike many other vets who we've had push unnecessary treatments & procedures just to hit a sales target.) Cannot recommend enough :) Read Less

I have had 3 dogs over the course of my life, all were clients of Gagemount. I cannot say enough about everyone there. Over the yrs their level of care has risen & exceeded any other animal hospital near or far. My golden retriever was not just an occasional visitor, due to health reasons he required regular frequent visits, so I got to know everyone there very well. Right from the moment u walk in, you r greeted by Claire and Lindsay who are r so very knowledgeable - due to my high maintenance boy I sometimes would call in a panic with a simple health question. Lindsay or Claire would often know what to do to ease my mind. If they didnt they would immediately check with Dr Keir and get back to me. All the vet technicians are equally learned. Highly knowledgeable, wonderful to deal with, always gentle and loving. And then there is Dr Keir. This is a man who is truly "in it for the love of the animals". He is beyond compassionate, gentle and loving. Near the end of my golden's life (15+ yrs), there was an option to do an invasive surgery. While other vets would have jumped @ the chance to make $$$ and put my boy thru the ordeal, Dr Keir put the interest of my beloved first. I have seen 1st hand - this is not a place that will nickel and dime you - yet the level of care by far exceeds top notch. Over the yrs there were many instances where Dr Keir opted for my boys best interest instead of going after the all mighty dollar. He is on top of the newest forms of care, always quickly & correctly diagnosing problems, and will never do anything that is not the best for your pet. There is most definitely a reason why Dr Keir is voted best vet in Hamilton every yr. Everyone @ Gagemount treats your pet as if it were there own, they respect it, only want what's truly best for it, just like they were part of their own family. They r all the ultimate professionals who deliver the highest level of care, while doing so with compassion, empathy and love - they r all in it "for the right reasons". Everyone at Gagemount is conscientious & on top of your pet's health. I have referred people to Gagemount and all are equally impressed & happy. To say i am happy with Gagemount is an understatement. I can never thank them, and especially Dr Keir, enough for all they have done for my babies over the years - they r all truly fantastic. If you love your pet and want nothing but the best care for it, Gagemount is the only place you should ever go - I would never go anywhere else. Read Less

This is an excellent veterinary clinic, friendly and knowledgeable staff who are always willing to make time for emergencies. Great place if you are a Rabbit or other "exotic" pet owner like myself, the staff here are more than capable with animals other than dogs and cats. Prices are perfectly acceptable. Read Less

They were so amazing, we brought in a leopard gecko with an abscess and they were skilled and comfortable enough to sedate her and excise the cist. Fantastic work, she healed so quick and painlessly. Would recommend to anyone with reptiles they are certainly knowledgeable Read Less

I brought my bunny here because she had a blocked gland. The doctor was extremely friendly and welcoming. I did not have any hesitation letting them take her to the back. It is difficult to find a vet who will treat small animals. I will be taking my other bunny and cat here for checkups from now on.Read Less

I recently started taking my pets to Gagemount Animal Hospital, and I think Dr. Keir and his staff are the best! They treat me and my dog and cat like family. I was unhappy with my former animal hospital, because I never got the same vet, and I was skeptical about some of the recommended treatments. Dr. Keir spends lots of time with me, explaining what he thinks is wrong and my options. Also, you can tell he loves animals, as he gets down to welcome them, petting them and talking to them. You would think this would be true of all vets, but I can assure you it isnt. The staff at Gagemount are also super friendly and knowledgeable. I am really happy with my decision to change to them.

Dr. Keir has been my vet for my last 3 dogs and has been nothing less then amazing! When getting unsettling news about my new puppy he was very kind and quickly gave me options on what could be done to help ease my worry. He took the time to sit down with me and explain the diagnosis, as well as gave me reliable websites to look at if I wanted to do more research! I have always valued his opinion and he has never steered me wrong by giving the best care to my furry family members.Read Less
