I brought my shar pei (Lilly) here to have a lump inspected on her belly after a 400$ vet bill I was reassured that the lump was non cancerous I was given some prednisone to treat the lump Dr Whitcomb was quick to rule it a skin condition because of her breed. Over the course of the next 2 weeks my shar pei got progressively worse having gained 30-40 red spots witch became very inflamed began to puss and pop during these 2 weeks I was in contact with the vet almost daily telling him something is not right she seems to be getting worse on the medication again over and over Dr Whitecomb insisted that it was a skin disease very comon in the breed, he also said she may be having an allergic reaction and to give her some Benadryl to help. The spots began to dry out and scab over Dr Whitecomb said this was normal after a few days Lilly became lethargic she wouldn’t eat food , treats anything would not go outside was very low energy I called Dr Whitecomb once again and expressed my concerns he told me it was very close to closing and that she would be fine over the weekend and he could see her Monday unfortunately Lilly passed away the follow morning. I had a autopsy done by s third party who discovered the lump was cancerous and the prednisone he prescribed realeased all the toxins into her body witch ultimately made her pass away. I later discovered that the only way to know for sure if the lump was cancerous was to send it away to Guelph for testing witch was never done Dr Whitcomb just guessed and ultimately it costed Lilly her life. Dr Whitecomg showed no remorse or concern regarding Lilly’s passing. I was offered a 1200$ reimbursement, for cremation,testing and autopsy cost in exchange for not releasing any info on the matter witch was declined

I have been taking my new fur baby here since I adopted him back in May. From my first initial check up, to my last minute appointment today to calm my nerves for a tiny little "sickness", it has been all around a great experience, both times. Seeing as I am a first time cat owner on my own, in a new city, the staff have been nothing short of knowledgeable, comforting, and friendly. Thank you!

As new puppy owners, we were nervous about providing the best care for our dog. Baxter Animal Hospital has taken great care of our new addition and has been able to answer any of our questions or concerns. The receptionist (Anne) is so pleasant and attentive! The technician that we had (Michelle) was able to supply us with information that we needed in order to make sure we are doing all the right things. Our vet (Joanne) was gentle and caring for our puppy and put our minds at ease with all the questions we had. Definitely would recommend! :)

I first brought my dog here in December 2015 as a second opinion when I was originally told he had only days to live due to kidney failure.
The friendly staff and doctor re-assessed the results and did confirm the kidney failure but also mentioned to me that after examining him, asking a few questions and with his daily activity life that it was probably something he has had since birth and that he has learned to compensate for it somehow. They recommended putting him a low protein diet, always providing plenty of fresh water and as long as his activity level and appetite remained that I shouldn't worry too much. Life expectancy however could be cut short due to the disease.
It is now late May 2017 and my little buddy is still going strong, some days stronger than ever with plenty of activity level.
I am forever grateful for their second opinion on this matter.

The receptionist that I spoke to said all I needed to know about the type of animal clinic Baxter Animal Hospital is. My dog injured her front paw today playing ball and I was extremely upset about it, considering she might have to go the vet, which as a student is financially difficult. The first thing I asked the receptionist was about how much x-rays would be and she gave me a very reasonable quote. She then explained to me the Vet could look at the leg and do their own examination before any x-rays needed to be done. I then explained to her that my dog could still apply a bit of weight on her front leg, which she then told me showed that it might just be soft tissue injury and could be temporary- so it might get better in a day or so. Well thankfully after giving my dog a bit of rest at home, she already seems to be doing so much better. Although it was a quick conversation, I just want to say how much I appreciate this person I spoke to on the phone. The entire conversation was just so wonderful, she was very helpful, sweet, honest, and understanding of my situation. If my dog does need to go to the vet in the future, I will be sure to go to Baxter Animal Hospital! They clearly demonstrated that they sincerely care about animals :) A class act!
