Canyon Creek Pet Hospital

I think this vet hospital is a gem. It's conveniently located, has excellent hours and accessibility for appointments and for drop in questions and product purchases. I dropped in for an emergency once as well . It's so reassuring to know how experienced Dr. Chahal is with cats, dogs and large farm animals.  He saved our cat's life when he became gravely ill. We are so fortunate to have our cat with us today. Dr. Cotton has been so good to our cat too. He is a sweet cat, but at the vets office the "tiger" comes out. Dr Cotton and the staff managed to handle him professionally and skillfully as to get the tests they needed despite his defensive behaviors. Both vets have a genuine caring demeanor and bed side manner. I am so grateful for this clinic and its staff. Read Less

I have been bringing my cats to Canyon Creek Pet Hospital since they first opened. I have never had a bad experience with the care of my cats or how they treat me. They all have been kind and caring with how they handle my cats. They treat them and me like family. My Vet is Dr Chahal. I have found him to be extremely knowledgeable and easy to work with. We treat my cats as a team. One of my cats was losing fur...licking and chewing the back of his paws and tummy. I had taken him to another close by clinic. They had wanted to put him on antidepressants because they felt he was acting out of anxiety. I knew my cat was relaxed and not experiencing anxiety. That is when I took him to Dr Chahal. Long story short Dr Chahal believed the behavior was caused by allergies. He did an allergy test and it showed what things we needed to avoid. He also suggested a certain medication which we tried. Thanks to Dr Chahal my cats no longer itches and chews. Another time I had decided to catch a feral I had been feeding for a couple of years. Dr Chahal assisted me with advice on how to crate him to bring him into the clinic.  I didn't want to risk bringing anything into my home that my cats would catch so they kept my feral at the clinic until all tests were completed.  I was encouraged to visit any time I wanted....which I did. I can't praise Dr Chahal or his staff enough. My cats and I are treated with respect and kindness. I would not hesitate recommending this clinic to anyone. I am so grateful this clinic is in my area.  They are open 7 days a week....no extra charge for nights or weekends. The clinic is immaculate. The staff is helpful, friendly and accessible. Dr Chahal puts his heart and soul into treating his patients. He is an all around magnificent veterinarian. Read Less

I've been going to Dr. Chahal for at least 10 years, not only for my own dogs and cats but the cats I've fostered for 13th St. Cats. I originally selected Dr. Chahal as my vet when he owned Akal Animal Hospital because it was very close to my house. And I hold Dr. Chahal in such high regard that even though Canyon Creek is a bit of a distance for me, I still prefer him over all other vets. I have had him care for my two shih tzus, two poodles, and countless cats and have been happy with his expertise and care. I have never felt rushed, or pressured into a particular path I did not want to go down.  When my shih tzu developed an unusual eye issue, Dr. Chahal did not hesitate to recommend a specialist which was exactly what was needed. My animals mean everything to me and I want the best care I can get for them. I have never felt cheated or disrespected in the slightest by Dr Chahal or his staff, and will continue to have him care for my animals. Read Less

If I could give ZERO stars, I would. Absolutely appalled by how Dr. Chahal spoke to us. My cat went missing, found her, took her to him. He permformed a procedure at an outrageous price. Was given 2 medicines for her to last 2 weeks. They did not give us an extra dose for one of them, claiming that they had. While on vacation, we had to settle this over the phone as our pet sitter was trying to get this taken care of. Dr. Chahal got on the phone, stating "we are not going to play the blame game here, I will give you the medicine at no price as a favor to you". EXCUSE ME?! No one was blaming anyone, we just needed the medicine they never gave us. Absolutely sick to my stomach. WORST VETERINARIAN EVER. Does not care about patients or the pet owners. PLEASE FOR THE SAKE OF OUR FUR BABIES, DO NOT TAKE THEM HERE!! Read Less

Dr. Bellinghausen, Dr. Cotten and Dr. Johal have been wonderful to work with over the past decade. They have cared for and managed complicated end of life conditions like colon cancer, and congestive heart failure for five older animals (dogs and cats) with great sensitivity and care. They are very diligent and thoughtful about all the medicines we needed to give. They really listen. They were also very practical and open about our choices, never making us feel guilty or pressured if we didn't want heroic measures for our elderly animals, and alternately sprung into action pulling out all the stops when we DID want heroic measures. I like their long hours so I can drop my animals off on the way to work at pick up by 10p. Super easy to deal with, and close to other conveniences like New Leaf, Starbucks. Highly recommended.

I can't say enough amazing things about Canyon Creek. The veterinarians, staff, and facility are beyond exceptional. The care that our pets receive is so thorough and prompt. The way that they explain every detail of your visit, ways to keep your pet healthy, and work with your budget, is beyond amazing. Read Less

I gave 4 stars because it was only my first experience with this business. Its very interesting because another reviewer posted today with a 1 star review and she saw the same vet as I did and had a very different opinion/experience. I thought he was great and I'm pretty picky!Today I went to Canyon Creek for the first time. My dogs and I went on a hike yesterday and this morning one of my dogs was favoring her right back leg and didn't want to walk or put weight on it. I'm very anxious when it comes to the health of my pets and that can be good and bad. We lost our whippet to CHF last year and I'm very proactive when it comes to the health of my two Podencos (they are both rescues from Spain). Anyways I called my regular vet and he couldn't see her till tomorrow. I called Silver Creek which is about a block from my house and they were booked too. Then I called Whole Pet in Los Gatos and they could squeeze me in but not until 5pm. I didn't want to wait. I called Canyon Creek and they were able to get me in right away. The clinic itself is very nice and clean. The receptionist(s) were nice. We were taken into an exam room and about 5 mins later Dr. Chahal comes in. My dog is VERY shy. It takes her quite a long time to warm up to people. She is very sweet and will let a vet do anything to her (no fear biting or anything like that) but she is still very shy. I was very impressed with Dr. Chahal. He knew how to approach a shy dog and he was calm, relaxed, and spent quite a few extra minutes to gain her trust with treats before trying to examine her. His exam was very thorough. He explained what he wanted to do and gave me a clear estimate. He even offered me a cheaper option for blood work. I was given pain meds and an anti inflammatory spray for my dogs foot (we think she got bit by something on our hike). Blood work was done in house which I LOVED. Results back in 20 minutes and no anxiety for me!The prices were pretty much the only downside. But given the area and the expensive equipment they have and the late hours I can totally understand a bit higher pricing. I love that they didn't try to sell me on anything I didn't need. It was just a foot wound so maybe if it was something else they would have but so far I am very happy. I asked the Dr about his opinion on certain flea and tick brands and he gave me an honest opinion and respected that I was very knowledgeable about the products (I work for a pet food store that has a lot of product training). Oh! I almost forgot to mention. I told the receptionist that my dog was insured with Trupanion and he filed the claim for me! I thought that was fantastic!!I am happy and will definitely be back!

I love Canyon Creek! They have taken care of my 2 dogs for years. The staff is always very friendly and extremely helpful! Dr Jahal ( not sure of the spelling, my apologies if I misspelled) has been there for my 1 of my babies through 2 surgeries within the past six months. He's wonderful! Thank you! Read Less

let's talk about Petunia-- another one of our miracle kitten recoveries. Petunia was the tiniest little thing and just would not grow!! All her siblings were healthy and happy and moved onto forever homes. Petunia lagged far behind. She alternated between being very constipated or having horrible diarrhea. She was seen by specialists; hospitalized overnight a few times and looked like she would not make it !! Fianlly, the vets at canyon creek were able to diagnose her with a rare parasite- Tritrichomonas foetus -- and with a lot of intense nursing care by her foster mom- she started getting better and growing stronger! Many people helped with her care- held her, cleaned her and fed her. It took a village for sure!! Petunia has now been adopted by an amazing family and continues to be healthy and happy This post is from 13 th st cat rescue and we are so indebted to this hospital for saving petunia and helping us with so many other rescue kitties over the years. Dr Chahal and Dr Garcia are amazing and the staff go out of their way to help me ! They are professional and polite and I adore them Thank you !!Read Less

Canyon Creek Pet Hospital is such a great pet hospital! Amazing people work there. They saved my dog. Only because of professionalism of Dr. Chahal and his wonderful team my dog is still alive.   Severe abdominal surgery was done successfully. After couple of months I hardly could find any scar after it. Right after the surgery they called me constantly to know about my dog's condition and to help me what to do and how to take care of my dog after surgery. It was hard time for me and my dog, but I felt that I am not alone and I very appreciate what they did! Read Less

One of the best pet clinic in the neighbor hood. Front desk staff are very friendly. As a first time pet owners, Dr Baljit Chahal explained the process on what to feed and what not to feed and one good advice is treat "pet as pet" and suggested very good websites on how to raise a healthy puppy. I would recommend this place all. Read Less

Everyone there is exceptionally nice and helpful. Our first visit there was at 9:45pm for an emergency. Everyone there was extremely caring about our situation and we didn't feel rushed out of there due to them closing. They took their time, ran all testes possible, and gave us such awesome service. The care that came from Dr. Chahal and the staff was above and beyond anyone could ask for which is why we haven't left. Each time we walk into the center, the dogs are excited to see him and the staff which tells me alot. I would highly recommend them!! Read Less

My cat Bijou is 9 years old and has ear and skin problems from time to time. Dr. Gill has always been very helpful in controlling her problems. He changed her diet several years ago and now treats her when her symptoms reappear. I am grateful for the quality care provided us and the nice environment. Read Less

Dr. Gill spayed and vaccinated by new Pug puppy Paulie Girl recently. I have always gotten good service there and am pleased with the friendly atmosphere. My 2 cats have been cared for there for several years. Dr. Gill and his staff are efficient and professional and the prices are very reasonable for the excellent services rendered. Read Less

I love the doctors and staff there. We just got our little pup examined and vaccinated. They have been so helpful in teaching us things and taking care of our little Xena as well as taking care of my older dog. Read Less

My 3 cats and I are very happy with Dr. Gill at Canyon Creek Pet Hospital. All 3 are older so I take them in regularly for checkups and medications as well as special food. One thing that helps make me such a conscientious and vigilant feline mom is the pleasant and friendly staff and the great overall environment at this beautiful veterinary hospital. You are all great! Read Less

I have been very happy with Canyon Creek Pet Hospital for over 3 years. My 2 dogs have gotten good care and I have gotten good advice about how to feed them right and provide them with proper preventative care. I as well as my dogs are older and they both need veterinary care for arthritis plus one of my companions has occasional skin and ear problems due to allergies. I really appreciate the pleasant environment and compassionate care givers there. Read Less

I have 2 spoiled cats named Muffy and Dahlia who needed to find a new vet since we just moved into the area. I was very happy to find Canyon Creek Pet Hospital to take care of my babies. They were both due for heartworm tests and medication plus my older cat Muffy was not acting like she felt good. Dr. Gill examined her and took a blood test. It turns out she was diabetic. She acts like she feels much better now that she is taking the medication she needed and eating a proper diet. Muffy is precious to me and I feel better knowing that I have a good vet to take care of her. Read Less

My Dalmatian is old and arthritic in the hips and low back. Dr. Gill has been a great help in keeping my companion healthy and happy. The staff and the facility are top notch and we owe them a debt of gratitude for their compassion and skill. Read Less

Nobody really wants to go to the veterinarian I guess, especially in an emergency, but my first experience with Canyon Creek Pet Hospital was terrific. My cat suddenly started having trouble urinating which scared me to death. But I was able to get her in to see the vet right away and the doctor said she had a urinary tract infection which they treated with medication and she is much better 2 days later. I learned that this problem is not only common but very dangerous for cats. Relieved and problem solved. Read Less

I wish this place was also a human hospital. The staff is super friendly and Doctor Holiday is the best. You will always feel like your pets are in the best of care. The only reason I give it four stars is the $$$ it costs to give your pets this quality care. Read Less

This is a very good place to take your beloved pets. The doctors and staff are compassionate and caring and the hospital facility is amazing. Just had a dental cleaning done with excellent results. Top ratings on all counts. Read Less

I and my 2 old dogs really like Dr. Gill for his kindness and high quality veterinary care. The staff is compassionate and caring. The hospital is very nice and the office hours are very convenient. This is an excellent choice for quality veterinary service. Read Less

Canyon Creek Pet Hospital is a great place to take you pets for veterinary care. I have taken my Siamese Molly in on several occasions when the need arises. I get convenient appointments and prompt service every time I go. My favorite vet is Dr. Gill, but everyone there is professional and very nice. Read Less

Dr. Gill has taken care of my Sheltie since he was a pup. Buster has needed veterinary care for allergies and chronic dermatitis most of his life along with low allergen prescription food. Dr. Gill has always been there for us through every crisis – for me with comfort and assurance that Buster will be OK, and for Buster with excellent treatment. I am grateful for his expertise. Buster is getting old now and I am planning to get a new puppy soon. One of the first outings my new puppy will make is to Canyon Creek Pet Hospital. Read Less

I have taken a Guinea Pig, Rat, Dog, and Cat here. All of them received the best care. The staff from the receptionist to the vet techs to the doctors are all top notch. Not only did our pets get premium care, we did as well. The clinic is beautiful and the hours are very accommodating. I cannot say enough wonderful things about Canyon Creek Pet Hospital. Read Less

I and my 3 cats have 2 years of good experiences with Canyon Creek Pet Hospital. We have been attended by Dr. Gill and Dr. Chahal and I really like both of them. We always get reliably good service in a nice facility with friendly and kind staff assistance. I cannot imagine a better place to take my veterinary problems. Read Less

Beautiful facilities, very fair prices, and most importantly, excellent veterinary care. The entire staff is friendly and professional -the vets are thorough and they really listen. My senior dog was eager to return and greet the vet- just days after having a dental and extractions! (I don't like my own docs nearly that much, lol !) I couldnt be happier with Canyon Creek Pet Hospital... I live in another town, so I have many options that are closer to home, but this place is the best and well worth the drive ! Read Less

Came home to my 11 week old boxer puppy not putting weight on her left hind leg. Looked up this clinic today because we had passed by it going to the grocery store before and had discussed checking out this place since we weren't really fully satisfied with our primary vet. Coincidentally, this was the closest place that was open and near our house so I decided to drop by, no phone call, no appointment or anything. Just walked in and had my poor Leila seen within 5 minuted of filling out the patient intake form and that was with other appts there as well. The lady working the front desk was very friendly and personable as was the Vet (Ms.Dr. Edwards). She performed an exam and informed me the best course of action was to have an X-Ray done to fully see the extent of the injury which I agreed to and good thing I did because turns out Leila had a fractured leg right below her kneecap! Dr. Edwards had her in a splint within 10-15 mins and out the door! Overall experience was great, clinic was very clean and nice looking. Would def recommend this place and will be bringing her here in the future for all our vet needs due to the excellent service received!!! Read Less

Easily the best place we could have taken Murphy. They did an awesome job of making him feel welcome and getting him back to normal. They were all very attentive and a willing to answer ALL my questions (I had a lot). I highly recommend this place to anyone needing a great to take care of their loved ones. Thank you Canyon Creek staff!!! Read Less
