Dundas West Animal Hospital: Avis
Expérience fantastique: I came here for a semi-emergency visit when our family vet was too far away. I called the clinic and they were able to get me an appointment within an hour, which I was incredibly grateful for. The staff were absolutely wonderful and treated my cat, Dobby, with such kindness and care. Even during a stressful situation, they made the experience a very positive one. You can truly tell that everyone here genuinely cares about their patients.
Thank you so much for your wonderful review, Amelia! We strive to provide compassionate and professional care and it’s rewarding to know that our efforts made a positive impact.
Expérience fantastique: Recently moved to the area and decided to switch vet clinics since the previous one wasn’t the most reliable and the experience was always awful. What a difference it was at this location! From the front desk help to the vet assistant to the vet herself everything was seamless. They took a lot of time to talk to me about my dogs health and history and even informed me he didn’t need a lifestyle specific vaccine which the previous clinic had administered anyway for the last 8 years. I usually have a lot of anxiety before the vet but I’m looking forward to my next visit with my frenchie! Great experience, thank you!
Wow, thank you for the amazing review, Amy! We know your pets are like family so we work hard to treat each patient with the same love and care we would give our own. Hearing we succeeded in doing that for you is the best compliment. We're so grateful you took the time to share your experience. ⭐️
Expérience fantastique: We are new to the area, and love this hospital. The staff are extremely knowledgeable and kind, and we feel that we couldn’t be in better hands.
Thank you, David! We strive to provide the best care and service to all our clients!
Expérience fantastique: Dr Emily took care of our cat Ozzy and her is amazing and so sweet to the animals!!!
We appreciate the kind words, TJ. We do our very best to provide the attention each of our clients and their pets need and deserve. If you have any additional questions, don't hesitate to give us a call.
Expérience fantastique: It's a really modern friendly, great veterinary hospital the staff was super caring about my animal. They get busy but that's a good thing. As it shows how good they are at what they do.
Hello Matthew, thank you for your fantastic review! We are grateful for this feedback as our staff prides themselves so much on providing this gold-star service! Thank you!
Expérience fantastique: I can’t say enough good things about Dundas West Animal Hospital and especially Dr. Aaron Van. Before coming here, I was at another clinic where my dog Penny was often bounced between different vet techs and vets. She had quite a few health challenges, and that lack of continuity was really hard. After just one visit to Dundas West, I knew this was different and fully transferred her care. Dr. Van took care of Penny during the last two and most difficult years of her life. He was incredibly compassionate and always treated her like she was his own dog. I never felt rushed, and I could genuinely tell how much he cared about her well-being. When Penny received her cancer diagnosis, Dr. Van was there for me every step of the way. He took the time to explain options, supported me through tough decisions, and made one of the hardest experiences of my life feel less lonely. I will always be grateful that Penny got to spend her final years under the care of Dundas West and their amazing team. They gave her comfort, dignity, and love when it mattered most. Thank you for everything. ❤️
Hi Julie, Thank you so much for taking the time to share such a heartfelt review. We’re honored to have been part of Penny’s journey and to have been able to provide her comfort, dignity, and love in her final years.
Thank you again for your trust and for sharing Penny’s story with us. ❤️
Expérience fantastique: The staff here are very committed. When my cat was discharged they called me at night and followed up by email. They also took a lot of time to explain the diagnosis and treatments, and the fees, so I felt comfortable with my decision. They use a fear free approach (my last vet clinic was very rough) so now I don’t have to fight my cat into the carrier to get there. The cat only side is a big bonus on not stressing her too. I’ve been to six veterinary clinics over the years and this one is the best.
Thank you for your review and kind words! We do our very best to provide the attention each of our clients and their furry friends need and deserve. We hope to see you soon. ⭐️
Expérience positive: The staff are friendly and knowledgeable, and my experiences with the vets themselves were positive. That said, I found the pricing to be very high (nearly $900 for two rounds of puppy vaccinations and a few months of NexGard flea and tick medication.) At first I assumed this was just reflective of the neighbourhood, but I later learned the clinic is owned by VetStrategy, a private equity firm. That helped explain the higher costs, as private equity ownership prioritizes returns to shareholders, and it’s something potential clients may want to be aware of when choosing a clinic.
Thank you for sharing your feedback, Matthew. We understand that veterinary care can be costly and we’re mindful of the financial decisions that pet owners face when seeking treatment. Our pricing reflects the time, expertise, and resources that go into providing personalized care for every patient.
As part of the VetStrategy network, we have access to additional support and tools that help us focus on delivering quality care. That said, our medical recommendations are always made with your pet’s best interest in mind, not driven by corporate policy.
If you’d like to better understand our approach or the support VetStrategy provides, we invite you to visit our FAQ page: https://www.vetstrategy.com/about/faq/.
Expérience fantastique: They are the best! The staff really cares and it shows and Dr. Moore is amazing. Myles says hi! :) We moved to this clinic bc of Dr. Moore but found as a whole it is the best. Thanks for all thr care you have given Myles you extended his life and most importantly his QUALITY of life by years.
Thank you for the 5 stars! We strive to provide excellent service and are glad you had a positive experience.
Expérience fantastique: This is the Mary Poppins standard of care. It was our absolute pleasure to work with Dr. Krayz, Amy, Alice, Sarah, and Angus. All which were exceptional, kind, and went above and beyond to change the course of Maka's concern. I went in expecting a stressful experience and instead left feeling like we had the very best care, kindness and overall experience. The Disney of vet clinics. My stinky kid has maybe accepted treats in public on one occasion. Dr. Krayz came in and camped out on the floor and persisted gently with building a bond. It worked and she even had treats from Dr.Krayz! Dr.Krayz takes the time to step out and do further research to ensure the very best level of care in her patients. I was blown away. My previous clinic left me feeling uncomfortable and like I hadn't received the best level of care. This was a 15 out of 10. Thank you to the team for the complimentary tissue and care with this helicopter mom. May your pillow always be cold, your bus on time, and your streaming platform always have new episodes of your favourite show for you to watch. Thank you again from the both of us.
We strive to make every client feel like family, so your thoughtful feedback means so much, Marko. Knowing we have your trust and confidence motivates us. Thank you for taking a moment to share your positive experience - it truly made our day! ⭐️
Expérience négative: !!! My dog was a long-term patient at this clinic. After visiting another clinic once in September, I was shocked to be told that I now have to pay for yet another full vet exam just to return here — even though only three months have passed. During this entire time, my dog continued getting vaccinations at this same clinic with a technician. The staff knows my dog’s history perfectly well. There is absolutely no medical justification for forcing another exam. This policy feels blatantly money-driven, not care-driven. Requiring frequent, unnecessary check-ups just to keep a client “active” looks like a cash grab, not responsible veterinary practice. I’m not willing to keep paying for redundant visits simply to satisfy an internal rule. Because of this, I won’t be coming back and would not recommend this clinic to others.
We’re sorry to hear that your experience was frustrating, Aimee. Our team always strives to provide safe and appropriate care for every pet and sometimes certain protocols need to be followed to ensure your pet receives the right treatment. We understand this may feel inconvenient, but these steps are in place to prioritize the well-being of all pets in our care. If you have any questions or would like to discuss our approach further, we encourage you to contact the clinic directly.
Expérience fantastique: Dundas West Animal Hospital is one of the best veterinary hospitals in all of Toronto. Although it is not the cheapest, it is worth absolutely every single cent, and here is why: They actually inspect your dog. The vet/techs take a decent amount of time reviewing past records, going over lifestyle, talking through many options and their results. It feels like they aren't kicking you out before you can get a word in. They trust you. It never felt like me against them, despite the fact that it's not cheap and I am by no means "well off". They don't make you feel like a bad parent for not being able to do the greatest and latest. They are so flexible. Referrals. When I could not afford a specific treatment option, they provided referrals to clinics that I could afford. Final thing - I knew there was something up with my dogs heart (for a long time!) and her previous vet never suggested doing any sort of exam on her heart or lungs even though I had brought her in for breathing issues a couple of years before going to Dundas Animal Hospital. The first time I brought her in, Dr. Van validated everything I was thinking was wrong with her. Maggie is happy again, I am aware of her issues and we are treating/already treated! If Maggie could write, she would be making this review herself hehe thank you, from both of us!!!
Thank you Yuri for taking the time to post a review.
Expérience fantastique: Amazing staff!! The doctor took his time seeing my cat and explaining everything to me. I was very impressed by the speed in which they had the blood and urine samples results. I also love that they have a separate space for cats only. Would definitely recommend taking your pet there
Thank you for your kind words and recommendation, Caroline! We know that clinic visits can be stressful for cats so we’re glad our dedicated feline waiting area helps make their experience a little calmer and more comfortable. ⭐️
Expérience fantastique: Absolutely the best vet I have been to. Ever. I have taken my various pets to a few veterinary practices over the past (eep!) 50 years as I've lived in different neighbourhoods around Toronto. Dundas West Animal Hospital is the absolute best. Their staff work as a team, and their veterinary assistants and patient representatives are outstanding. They understand you're entrusting them with a beloved family member. They value your subjective information in diagnosis, and involve you in discussing treatment. If there are ongoing concerns, they advise you of options and let you know what to watch for as your pet ages. (And there's a separate entrance for their cat clinic! No more stress-peeing in the carrier in the waiting room.) I'm blessed to have found them. Thanks, DWAH
Thank you for your heartfelt review! It's our mission to ensure that all clients and furry friends are provided high-quality care. We understand leaving home can be stressful for cats and are happy to be able to provide an alternative entrance to help make their experience more comfortable. ⭐️
Expérience fantastique: Thank you for everything you’ve done Dr. Kay, Dr. Killburn and the whole DWAH team! Milly and I could not be more grateful your compassion, honesty and dedication shows in each and every visit!
Hello Ro, thank you for your fantastic review! We are grateful for this feedback as our staff prides themselves so much on providing this gold-star service! Thank you!
Expérience fantastique: Dr. Kai Moore’s communication and commitment are exceptional, she has gone above and beyond for my cat. I received continuous updates, thoughtful explanations, and genuine support. Despite Luna’s rare and challenging stomach condition, Dr. Moore has worked relentlessly to build a plan tailored to her needs, always letting me know my options. I’ve had my cat for 11 years and chose Dundas West due to convenience after I moved to the area, and I’m thankful to have chosen it. The best vet Luna has ever been to!!! Thank you so much to Dr Moore for taking care of Luna in such a scary time for us both.
We never take positive feedback like this for granted. Exceeding clients' expectations is what motivates us. Knowing we did that for you will inspire our team to keep raising the bar! Thank you! ⭐️
Expérience négative: Useless staff. I brought in a lost dog and the staff kept evading us, not scanning his microchip, vanishing next door and to the back, and lying. Dishonest and uncompassionate, I'm so glad we didn't take our pet here when looking at vets in the neighborhood. They do not care about the safety and wellbeing of animals.
Thank you for sharing your feedback, Henry. We’re very sorry for the frustration and confusion you experienced. For safety and liability reasons, once we assess a lost or stray animal, we are unable to return them to the person who brought them in and we do not have space to hold them until a shelter or animal control can pick them up.
We understand this can be disappointing and we apologize if our communication about this was unclear. We always encourage reaching out to 24 hour emergencies, local animal control or shelters, who are best equipped to safely care for and rehome lost pets. If you’d like to discuss this further, please feel free to contact the clinic directly.
Expérience fantastique: Only went here once so far but our experience so far has been wonderful. Very caring. Very professional. Will be back again for sure.
Hi Julian, thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. We know how important your pet is to you because we are owners ourselves and huge animal enthusiasts. We love what we do and reviews like this truly make our day! Thanks again!
Expérience fantastique: Our recent experience at Dundas West Animal Hospital (DWAH) was so reassuring. Our cat was very ill which had us very worried. Dr. Liz and team were incredible. My anxiety level before our visit was 10/10 and after our visit it went down to 3/10. My cat does not like going to the vet, but I was surprised at how well he did at the Cat Only clinic - I'm so glad there's one available. Nicole at the front desk was friendly, helpful and very reassuring. I really appreciated the attention and care we received. I know we are in good hands at DWAH. Thanks for all you do!
Thank you so much for the kind review, Maria! We understand how stressful it can be having a member of your family in the hospital. We are glad we could make it a little easier for you. Give your kitty a pat from us!
Expérience fantastique: Love this clinic and great staff, I have been to several and live 45 min away but it worth the drive knowing you get amazing care and knowledgeable doctors. My niece Matilda used to work there and recommended their care, knowledge.and expertise. I have been there 1 1/2 years and very pleased!
We never take positive feedback like this for granted. Exceeding clients' expectations is what motivates us. Knowing we did that for you will inspire our team to keep raising the bar! Thank you! ⭐️
Expérience fantastique: Very impressed with the entire practice - from the space to the support staff and most importantly the Vets! Highly recommend !
Thanks for the kind words, S! It's our mission to ensure that all clients and furry friends are provided high-quality care. We appreciate your recommendation. ⭐️
Expérience fantastique: I was there on Friday and Monday with my cat and they are amazing people I would like to thank Dr. Fuller who did everything to help my cat he was amazing doctor who was so kind to me and my mom when we put my cat down I recommend you take your pets there because there are so good with your pet and very kind people.
Thank you for your kind words. We’re so sorry for your loss and truly appreciate you taking the time to share your experience during such a difficult moment. Dr. Fuller and the entire team will be touched to know their care and compassion brought you some comfort. We’re grateful for your trust in us and your recommendation.
Expérience fantastique: I can not stress enough that this is the best place to bring your pet. I unfortunately have had both my dogs very ill in the last few months and one unfortunately pass away and in both instances I was taken care of to a level you could only pray for. The staff here is attentive caring and extremely compassionate they deal with people sometimes on their worst day and are able to provide a service I am amazed by because im sure its not easy. There is no other place in the city I would consider bringing my dog. From the front desk staff to the nurses and vet techs all the way to the Veterenarians everyone here is phenomenal. They are priced fairly and I have never felt gauged by any service they recommend. I honestly can not say enough good things! Thank you Dundas West Animal hospital for your incredible care of my babies.
Thank you so much for taking the time to share this heartfelt review, Nicole. We know how difficult it can be when a beloved pet becomes ill or when you’re facing the loss of a family member, and we’re truly grateful that you trusted us to support you through both of those moments. Our team is dedicated to providing compassionate care and hearing that you felt supported really means a lot to everyone here. Please don’t hesitate to reach out whenever you and your pups need us.
Expérience fantastique: Truly the best team! We became patients at Dundas West Animal Hospital 6 years ago when it was just our one cat. Even though we moved from the west to the east end, we continue to bring our furry babies, which have now become 2 cats and 1 dog. The team is the best, hands down. Dr. Folosea and Dr. Bahlmann especially are extremely knowledgeable, attentive, and caring. Same goes for the technician and reception team. I have recommended many of my friends to bring their own furry babies here and they are also big fans. Thank you for everything you do, from Iris, Lucifer, and Freddie.
Thank you so much for your kind words and for sharing your experience, Deniz. We’re deeply touched by your appreciation for Dr. Folosea, Dr. Bahlmann, and our team. We strive to provide compassionate and supportive care, especially during challenging times, and it's wonderful to hear that our efforts made a difference for you and your pet. Thank you for your continued trust in us over the years. We look forward to being here for you and your furry family members for many years to come.
Expérience positive: I have been takijg my animals to Dundas West Aninal Hospiral for a few years.now After the recent loss of my two beloved dogs I was hesitant to come back as I felt like we were bounced around from vet to vet,and we did not get the consistent care I needed..I recently rescued another dog and we now see Dr Kai Moore and that all changed. Brodie and I just love her. The staff are amazing and truly love animals that shows everytime we come there. Recently had to bring my cats to the other side of the practice and that too was a good experience for them as well. Now I have a permanent vet it has made coming back that much easier. Brodie loves you!
Thank you, Dianne! We're so glad to hear your pup loves visiting us. It means a lot that you’ve trusted us with Brodie's care all these years and we truly appreciate you spreading the word. See you both next time!
Expérience fantastique: Dr. Kay is an absolute gem. I came in heartbroken after my dog was attacked by another dog and she did such an amazing job at taking care of us and reassuring us that he was in good hands. Her bedside manner was amazing and was very mindful of how traumatic of an experience that was. She was professional, thorough and attentive. Would definitely recommend to anyone looking for animal care.
Your kind words mean so much, S! We understand how worrying vet visits can be, so we aim to ease every pet parent's concerns. Thank you for entrusting us with your fur baby - we don't take that responsibility lightly! ⭐️
Expérience fantastique: Got an appointment for the same day, they performed all the necessary exams on my dog and we left with the correct treatment
Thank you for the kind words, Sofia! We are so happy to hear that you enjoyed your experience. We look forward to your next visit!
Expérience fantastique: My partner and I used this vet for our elderly Great Dane. When the time finally came for her, they were very kind, caring and compassionate. We were very impressed by the care given by their team. Thank you for everything.
Thank you for your kind words, Taylor. You have our heartfelt condolences. We know how stressful that situation can be and are glad that our team could make it a little easier for you. We sincerely appreciate your feedback. If you have any future questions, please feel free to give us a call.
Expérience fantastique: Thank you for a great first experience today with my 4.5-year-old rescue. My family and I had been going to the same vet since the 90s in the west end, but after recent changes in their office management, I decided to look elsewhere. It was truly a relief to walk into a clinic that felt professional, compassionate, and organized. The staff made both me and my dog feel welcome and cared for, and the appointment was thorough without feeling rushed which is very much appreciated :)
We are so happy we exceeded your expectations and we look forward to your next check-up!
Expérience fantastique: I took my one year old cats in yesterday for their one year check up and shots. My cats were rescued from the outdoors and are extremely timid and nervous. Lindsay went out of her way to bring us anxiety medication and reschedule the appointment when it didn’t work the first team. Dr. Randy, Angelica and Lindsay were so welcoming, patient and kind the entire time and went out of their way to make it a smooth visit for everyone

Expérience fantastique: My cat has been a patient of DWAH for many years and we have always received great care but recently my cat had what felt to be an emergency and everyone that helped us gave us exceptional care . I was extremely anxious and Dr Folosea was very understanding and kind to me and my cat. I have moved and it is definitely no longer close for us but I will continue to have them as my cats primary care.
Hi Kaila, thank you for your heartfelt review. Your commitment to our practice is the greatest reward we could ask for. We cherish the bond we've built with you and your furry friends over the years! . ⭐️
Expérience fantastique: Dr Krayz treats our cat, Jack, as if he's her own. She takes time outside of working hours to call and check up on him, and she was dedicated to getting his diabetes under control when we couldn't seem to get a handle on it. The entire team is fantastic and have truly saved his life. He just underwent a dental surgery and, once again, it went so smoothly. Their team is full of excellent, empathetic staff. Can't recommend this centre enough!
We never take positive feedback like this for granted. Exceeding clients' expectations is what motivates us. Knowing we did that for you will inspire our team to keep raising the bar! Thank you! ⭐️

Hi Karol, thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. We know how important your pet is to you because we are owners ourselves and huge animal enthusiasts. We love what we do and reviews like this truly make our day! Thanks again!
Expérience fantastique: I can’t express how much I love this clinic. The vets are knowledgable and have never tried to upsell me or do anything unnecessary for profit. I’ve always been given options and been able to make decisions without feeling as though I’m hurting my kitties. I love that they are in a separate building from the dogs and I don’t have to bring them to another clinic for things like ultrasounds or other procedures. They are amazing!
We never take positive feedback like this for granted. Exceeding clients' expectations is what motivates us. Knowing we did that for you will inspire our team to keep raising the bar! Thank you! ⭐️
Expérience fantastique: I recently had an appointment with Dr. Do as my cat had a medical issue. She is thorough and explains everything which I appreciate. My cat is a very difficult patient but through her kindness, compassion and caring, the visit is less stressful for him. Thank you Dr. Do! And to the team! Friendly staff on arrival at the Cat Hospital and always with a smile! Special thank you to the person who helped me with my cat going home. I really appreciated you help! Great team :)

Expérience fantastique: Best veterinary service around very empathetic very involved in what they do. I wish family doctors for us kind hearted and attentive as veterinarians are I’d go there for treatment. They definitely helped me through a horrible time.
Thank you so much for your kind words. We’re truly touched by your sentiment and so glad we could support you during such a difficult time. It means a lot to hear that our care made a difference.
Expérience fantastique: Two years ago, I rescued a 9-year-old feral cat named Princess. Sadly, she suddenly became ill not long ago and crossed the rainbow bridge. Thanks to the heartfelt advice of an angelic soul named Patsy and Lori, who helped me during the rescue, I was guided to Dundas West Animal Hospital, where I met the incredibly kind Dr. Ben Fuller. Dr. Fuller welcomed us with such warmth and compassion. He cared for Princess with such gentleness and respect — and most importantly, he gave her the peace to pass in my arms, as if she were simply falling asleep. Though I’ve said goodbye to other beloved fur babies before, this was the first time one of them was able to cross the rainbow bridge so peacefully in my arms. That moment helped ease the weight of my grief in a way I’d never experienced before. I was truly thankful for that experience. But today… I was moved to tears once again. I received a handwritten card from Dr. Ben Fuller — inside was a drawing he had done himself, and a note saying he made a donation to Team Cat Rescue in Princess’s name. It touched my heart so deeply. I cried with gratitude and emotion, overwhelmed by the kindness and love shown to both Princess and me. I’m sharing this story because I wholeheartedly recommend Dundas West Animal Hospital to anyone who loves animals. To Dr. Ben Fuller and all the staff — from the bottom of my heart, thank you.
We truly appreciate you sharing your experience with us. We understand that saying goodbye to a cherished pet is an incredibly emotional and challenging moment. Our utmost priority is to provide compassionate care during these difficult times. Your feedback means a lot to us and we're here to support you whenever you need us.
Expérience fantastique: I have a senior dog she is 20 years old and Dundas West has been amazing with her they are always thorough and friendly I have been using there services for over 10 years thank you

Expérience fantastique: I want to give a big shout out to Dr. Randy Do and Charlotte! I’m always amazed by how much they truly love animals. Every time we bring Gary, our crazy cat, both Dr. Randy and Charlotte are so kind and caring, it really shows how much they care. Dr. Do always takes the time to explain everything in detail and makes sure we don’t leave with any doubts. Charlotte is super professional and sweet, always helping with weighing and gathering the pre-consultation info. Please keep them on the team forever! They're one of the main reasons we keep coming back to Dundas West Animal Hospital, we always feel well taken care of.
Wow, thank you for the amazing review! We know your pets are like family so we work hard to treat each patient with the same love and care we would give our own. Hearing we succeeded in doing that for you is the best compliment. We're so grateful you took the time to share your experience. ⭐️
Expérience fantastique: Dundas West Animal Hospital is a fantastic vet clinic. We are so lucky to have received exceptional attentive and compassionate care for our pet, Freddy, who was recovering from a broken arm. Dr. Folosea is an absolute gem. He is so patient and professional. He really takes the time to thoughtfully explain the care that is being given and he always left me with such confidence and comfort knowing my Freddy was in caring hands. My experience with all of the staff and vet techs from DWAH was wonderful. Highly recommend!

Expérience fantastique: I have a 13 year old orange tabby I wanted to take in for a check up. I've heard some horror stories about other vets in the area but everyone in my condo building raves about this place, so I went to see Dr. Kaitlin. Wow. This place is fun so beautifully. I love how the cats are a separate entrance/waiting room than dogs and other pets. The receptionist was very a nice dude and everyone who works with Kaitlin (like Sydney and Lyla!) is so compassionate, which put me at ease. Plus, the bill wasn't even as expensive as I thought it would be! Nothing but gold stars across the board. DWV is the place to be, y'all

Thank you so much for your wonderful review, Catherine! We strive to provide compassionate and professional care and it’s rewarding to know that our efforts made a positive impact.
Expérience fantastique: Dr. Olette-Root is one of the most wonderful vets I’ve had the pleasure of seeing. She not only deeply cares about my pet, but she take the time to thoroughly explain things, never making me feel rushed. I immensely trust her with my pet’s care. Thank you for everything you do!
Reviews like this remind us why we love what we do, Julie. Providing excellent veterinary care is our top priority, so we appreciate you recognizing our efforts.
Expérience fantastique: The vets and vet techs at DWAH have taken such expert and gentle care of both my geriatric cats. It's clear that their number one priority is animal health and wellbeing. They give prices up front, in addition to all treatment options, which facilitates an easier decision-making process. Highly recommend the team at DWAH!
Thank you for the glowing review, Corey! We know your pets are family, so going above and beyond for you is our top priority. We're grateful you took a moment to share your great experience with us. It keeps us motivated!
Expérience fantastique: So kind and patient. They took the time to explain everything to me. 10/10 would recommend
We appreciate the kind words, Delia. We do our very best to provide the attention each of our clients and their pets need and deserve. If you have any additional questions, don't hesitate to give us a call.
Expérience fantastique: Dundas West Animal Hospital has to be one of the most compassionate and sincere vets in Toronto. It can be tough to find a vet. The team here provided me the comfort of conversing with very calm, compassionate and reliable receptionists, and sincerely compassionate veterinary assistants and veterinarians. Everyone provided the most careful and empathetic care both in health, and especially at the end of life, for my wonderful cat. I am so grateful to Lyla, Dr. Ben Fuller, and Dr. Kaitlin Bahlmann. I recommend this vet for any cat owner. They will not let you down, and they will be transparent about costs and about the severity of illness in your animal, and they will ensure you are ok throughout every step.
Thank you so much for your kind words. We’re truly grateful for your trust and are honoured to have been there for you and your beloved cat — both in health and during the more difficult moments. Supporting both pets and their people with compassion is at the heart of what we do, and we're so glad we could be there for you.
Expérience fantastique: Dr. Emily Kay helped my dog recently with a terrible skin infection. She is absolutely outstanding and I highly recommend taking your dog or your cat to see her for anything and everything. The clinic itself is always clean and nice - the other staff are all warm and friendly. Overall a great experience.
Patient and client care are very important to us. We are happy to hear that you enjoyed your experience with our team. If you have any future questions, please don't hesitate to give us a call.
Expérience fantastique: I can't say enough good things about Dundas West Animal Hospital! We moved and needed a closer vet. Dr. Moore is absolutely amazing, so patient, thorough, and caring. She takes the time to explain everything in detail and always ensures we understand the costs upfront before proceeding with any treatment. The entire team is professional, compassionate, and incredibly attentive. They even send follow-up emails to check in after vaccines, which shows how much they truly care about their patients. We take our Giant Schnauzer here, and we always feel confident she’s receiving the best care possible. Highly recommend this clinic to any pet owner looking for a trustworthy and dedicated veterinary team!
Wow, thank you for the amazing review, Anne! We know your pets are like family so we work hard to treat each patient with the same love and care we would give our own. Hearing we succeeded in doing that for you is the best compliment. We're so grateful you took the time to share your experience. ⭐️
Expérience fantastique: I needed to change our Vet and found Dundas West. It was my lucky find. The office is professional. My appointments are always on time. The doctors and staff are amazing and caring. They are very current with new treatments and medications. They also recommend specialty care when needed. My pup is healthy today because of Dundas West. Parking is also convenient I am so thankful to have found them.
Hello Janet, thank you for your fantastic review! We are grateful for this feedback as our staff prides themselves so much on providing this gold-star service! Thank you!
Expérience fantastique: Exceptionally warm, caring and compassionate care. Worked with me to make the best decisions for my fur baby. Very reasonable in terms of cost control. I so appreciate the clear communication, respect and understanding care. My pug had an ear infection, and after Dr Folosea’s treatment, he stopped scratching his ears within a day or two. We are both very grateful! Many thanks to Dr Folosea and team!
Thank you for your review and kind words, Jennifer. We do our very best to provide the attention each of our clients needs and deserves. We enjoy having your fur babies; we hope you all come by soon!
Expérience fantastique: What sets this vet clinic apart is that they don’t treat every case the same, they truly take the time to understand each pet and owner. I love that they know me and my dogs personally, which makes a huge difference in the level of care we receive. Unlike other vets I’ve been to, they make every pet feel special, and I genuinely trust their judgment, they’ve always been spot on. Another thing I appreciate is that they check up on your pets and offer helpful recommendations, but they never pressure you into unnecessary purchases or make you feel guilty if something isn’t within your budget. You’re always comfortable saying no, They also take the time to answer all of your questions, making sure you feel informed and confident about your pet’s care. This clinic is like a second home for both me and my dogs, I want to say thank you for a successful surgery, Zero is recovering very well
We never take positive feedback like this for granted, Nicole. Exceeding clients' expectations is what motivates us. Knowing we did that for you will inspire our team to keep raising the bar! Thank you! ⭐️
Expérience fantastique: Always professional, kind and extremely helpful. They've waived fees and never try to add unnecessary things to any of our appointments. All of my pets go here despite now living on the other side of the city
Thank you for the glowing review, David! We know your pets are family, so going above and beyond for you is our top priority. We're grateful you took a moment to share your great experience with us. It keeps us motivated!
Expérience fantastique: Dr Kilburn is very obviously gifted at what she does and I genuinely admired the way she weaved her intelligence, attentiveness and intuition into the care of my best friend, who happens to be a very cautious Shepherd mix. Thank you to the DWAH team for the attention that Vita received, during what has been an indisputably confusing and terrifying time for us as a family. Your staff is compassionate and thorough. There is an overall workforce culture of people who truly value the lives of animals and the feelings of those fortunate enough to love them. Thank you
Wow, thank you for the amazing review, Tee! We know your pets are like family so we work hard to treat each patient with the same love and care we would give our own. Hearing we succeeded in doing that for you is the best compliment. We're so grateful you took the time to share your experience. ⭐️
Expérience négative: The amount of upselling that happens in an appointment is disappointing it’s always “ this May or could happen”. They prey on their customers vulnerability and it’s the reason we are switching vets. They don’t realize it’s their customers first time having pets too and instead of educating them they shame their clients. I’m not sure what happened in the last 5 years we have come here but the vibes are off. Edit: This hospital upcharges because they are owned/co owned by the big 3 - Vet Strategy, VCA and NVA. Shame on you!!!
Thank you for sharing your comments, Angel. Yes, our clinic is part of VetStrategy, a network of veterinary hospitals across the country. While we are supported by a larger organization, our medical team makes all treatment recommendations based on each pet’s individual needs.

Expérience fantastique: Best vets in town. It is a bit pricey but the service you will receive here is outstanding! They reply emails and answer the phone super quickly. The vets aere super friendly with the animals and take the time to explain everything thoroughly to the owners. I have never had a bad time at this place. I highly recommend it!!
We strive to make every client feel like family, so your thoughtful feedback means so much, Valentina. Knowing we have your trust and confidence motivates us. Thank you for taking a moment to share your positive experience - it truly made our day! ⭐️
Expérience fantastique: I have been going to Dundas West animal Hospital for years. Every single time the staff and doctors are so incredibly kind and welcoming and dedicated. I have gone through some incredibly heartbreaking and difficult experiences with some of my beloved animals and they have been there every step of the way to support and help guide me. I would highly highly recommend them. There is clearly so much care and love and skill in their clinic and I’m grateful that I found them.
Dear Rachel, Thank you for your touching review and for trusting us with the care of your beloved pets over the years. We’re truly honored to have been by your side during both the joyful and challenging moments. Your kind words mean so much to our team, and we’re grateful to be a part of your journey with your furry family members.
Expérience fantastique: We are super grateful to Dr. Fuller who has been very helpful in helping me navigate my senior cats end of life care. He had given practical down to earth advice, provided resources, taken the time to explain things to me patiently and conducted himself with empathy and kindness. Thank you. Stevie and Juanita
Dear Stevie and Juanita, we offer you our deepest condolences for the loss of your cat. We know what a difficult time this is. We are happy to read that you appreciated the support of our team. We wish you all the best.
Expérience fantastique: January 9, 2025 Below is a review from a year ago, and I am very happy to report that DWAH continues to impress me when it comes to caring for my dog. She recently had a bad reaction to accidentally eating something that wasn’t good for her. Not only did they take us the same day, they managed all of the tests needed within six hours to ensure she would be okay. And indeed she was. I remain heavily impressed by the professionalism, knowledge and genuine care they take with my dog, and with me. Thank you very much to all, and especially Dr. Ben in this most recent case. Post from last year below: I could not have been happier and more at ease during my and Rosie’s (puppy) first appointment at Dundas West Animal Hospital. The front desk associate was lovely and clearly knew how to react to and treat dogs. Then Dr. Burke made the visit that much better being a calm and loving with Rosie, and knowledgeable and kind with me, a first time puppy owner. I look forward to our next visit, and have nothing but good things to say about DWAH.
Hi Hayley, thank you so much for taking the time to leave us such a thoughtful review! As fellow pet owners, we know how important it is to find a veterinarian you can trust with your furry family members. We strive to provide compassionate, high-quality care to all of our patients, so it means the world to hear we exceeded your expectations. Thanks again for the kind words - they really made our day!
Expérience fantastique: We have been taking my kitties to DWAH for close to 15 years and have always been happy with the care. A special shoutout to Dr. Do who was so patient with 2 high strung rescues and me at their recent health check. She took the time to answer all questions, and when bearing less than good news did so with the utmost professionalism and caring. She followed up with a detailed explanation by phone explaining bloodwork results and charting a plan forward. The new cat hospital attached to DWAH is gorgeous, and such a serene calm environment.
Hi Diana, thank you for your heartfelt review. Your commitment to our practice is the greatest reward we could ask for. We cherish the bond we've built with you and your furry friends over the years! . ⭐️
Expérience fantastique: For the past few weeks our sweet doggo has been suffering with some GI issues; it's been a tough time for us, but the staff at Dundas West animal hospital have gone over and above to help us during this time! From answering our many emails, walking us through treatment plans, strategizing next steps (thanks Dr. Folosea!) and fitting us into last minute appointments, it's clear the people who work here actually care. I mean it's obvious that they honestly care about the animals they see. We can't tell you how many times they've wished us well, or signed off an email with "we all hope your sweet Sevi gets better". And when we come in with our doggo, it's so clear how much the people there love the animals they see. While everyone there is amazing we want to shout out a few people in particular: Sabby, Taylor, Katie and Brooklyne, thanks for all your help these past few weeks! And obviously, Dr. Folosea, thank you as always for the care you show to us and Sevi. Clearly, we'd highly recommend Dundas West if you're looking for a vet!
Wow, thank you for the amazing review, Jahn! We know your pets are like family so we work hard to treat each patient with the same love and care we would give our own. Hearing we succeeded in doing that for you is the best compliment. We're so grateful you took the time to share your experience. ⭐️
Expérience fantastique: Best veterinary in all GTA. After trying so many places I’m so happy that I’ve found Dundas West Animal Hospital. From the very first time I called in to book the appointment, Andrew impressed me and made feel that I was being valued as a client. And Doctor Kay is amazing. I cannot be happier with the service and the care of my dog. I highly appreciate all they’ve done with my dog and I recommend them 1000%. They went above and beyond with absolutely everything. Thank you Dr. Kay. I’m so blessed and I would never go anywhere else.

Expérience fantastique: Thanks for taking care of my spicy kitty Macallan and being thorough with his diagnosis. They even called around for emergency hospitals to refer him to. Macallan is like family to me so it means a lot ! He is now safe and happy at home
We strive to make every client feel like family, so your thoughtful feedback means so much, Brittany. Knowing we have your trust and confidence motivates us. Thank you for taking a moment to share your positive experience - it truly made our day! ⭐️
Expérience fantastique: Dr. Bainbridge and the Dundas West team provided veterinary care to my two rescued dogs from 2012 to 2020. They provided the best care, were so accommodating, and always provided me with treatment options without making me feel guilty in case I had budget restrictions. Every person who works in the clinic loves the animal patients. When each of my dogs passed away the staff did their best to make the experience as painless and private as possible for me. Best veterinary clinic in the GTA.
Hi Jasmine, Thank you for sharing such a heartfelt review. We’re honored to have been part of your journey with your two rescued dogs. Providing compassionate care and support during both happy and challenging times is what we strive for!
Expérience fantastique: We have been clients of Dundas West Animal Hospital since 2019. They have provided exemplary care to our Golden Retriever and helped us through some challenging times. The vets, vet techs, vet assistants, and administrative staff are a very skilled and caring group. We would highly recommend Dundas West to anyone looking for qualified veterinary services in west Toronto.
Thank you for your wonderful review, Stephen! We're thrilled to hear about your positive experiences with us. Your loyalty and trust in our services mean the world to us. Looking forward to serving you again soon!. ⭐️
Expérience négative: Disappointed, disgraceful and utterly atrocious behaviour from these so called vets at Dundas west animal hospital. I booked my appointment in person as I was told two wellness exams with first rounds of vaccines would be 130 each, which would total too 260 dollars for both dogs. On the day of the visit, at the end they tried to charge me 780$ for 2 vaccines for each dog (rabies parvo) and 2 deworming pills. After being held hostage from 230-530 pm I left spending 307 dollars without DEWORMING PILLS. I hate this hospital. They do not care about your pets. They are greedy with no empathy or morals. Shame on this awful place.
Dear Julia, Thank you for your feedback. We are sorry to hear about your experience and understand how billing discrepancies can be frustrating. Transparency in communication about costs is very important to us, and we apologize if there was any misunderstanding regarding the pricing of services during your visit.
We also regret hearing that you felt the visit did not meet your expectations regarding care and empathy. This is not the experience we aim to provide, and your comments will be shared with our team to ensure we address any gaps in communication or service. We wish your pet all the best with their veterinary care.
Expérience fantastique: I can't say enough good things about the care my cat Sweetpea has received recently at DWAH. Dr. Krayz and Dr. Wang have been amazing with Sweetpea. I really appreciate their follow-up calls (and on days Dr. Wang isn't even working there) and emails. I always know my cat is in good hands even when I make the last minute 'can you see my cat today' call. The best vets and animal hospital I have ever taken my animals too.
Thank you for your review and kind words, April. We do our very best to provide the attention each of our clients needs and deserves. We enjoy having your fur baby!
Expérience fantastique: I HIGHLY recommend DWAH. I had an emergency situation, life or death, and their entire staff were so kind, caring and compassionate. Without the genuine empathy and understanding from Dr Kay I would have been a complete mess. They gave him such phenomenal care, and I truly believe if we had gone anywhere else, he would not be home right now recovering from surgery. Dr Do also gets an honorable mention as she was in charge of his surgery, she was incredibly kind, and did an amazing job. The vet techs were also just so sweet, giving him all the love during his stay. They really are the best, and from the bottom of my heart I will always be so incredibly grateful to every single one of their staff that was on my little guys case.
Hi Rachael, thank you so much for sharing your experience with us. We’re truly honored to have been there for you and your little one during such a critical time. Our team is dedicated to providing compassionate and expert care, so it means the world to hear that Dr. Kay, Dr. Do, and our vet techs made such a difference for you both. Your kind words and gratitude have touched all of us – thank you again for trusting us with your furry family member's care.
Expérience fantastique: This is hands down the best vet clinic anywhere in the GTA (and i've tried quite a few!). They take such good care of every animal. They are patient with owners, taking extra time to answer questions and make sure you understand the options and are comfortable. All of the staff are friendly and they do check-ins afterwards to make sure everything is going well. The online food ordering system is also convenient and affordable for dogs on prescription diets. A special shout out to Dr Buchanan for all her support. My pup is a bit of a medical monster and an absolutely horrible patient. She has been so patient with him, learning what makes him comfortable and going truly above and beyond to ensure he's cared for without sending me into debt. I honestly cannot thank her enough!
Thank you for the glowing review, Kristin! We know your pets are family, so going above and beyond for you is our top priority. We're grateful you took a moment to share your great experience with us. It keeps us motivated!
Expérience fantastique: ***UPDATE: An officer manager called and acknowledged I had been billed in error and offered me a partial refund so my bill would be in-line with my quote, which I took them up on. Happy and appreciative that they made it right!*** Generally have found this vet to be good, but had a poor experience there today that kinda soured me on them. They had followed up with me re: getting some bloodwork done on my dog, and I asked them what that cost, and they gave me a price / I booked. When the appointment was done, the charge was noticeably more than quoted. I asked the front desk why and they said there was a fee for blood collection - I explained the email I sent was pretty clear that I asked about the total appointment cost and I felt the person at the front desk was patronizing in defense and that they didn't take any accountability for the vet not including collection fees in the email. It's pretty straightforward - provide the cost, or if there are variables that can affect the quote, explain them up front. Ultimately, had they taken accountability for the mistake, I wouldn't be too bothered, but this doesn't give me confidence in seeing them in the future that charges won't be all over the place.
Thank you for sharing your experience, Calvin. We appreciate your patience and understanding, and we’re glad to hear our office manager was able to address the billing error and provide a partial refund!
We understand how important transparency in pricing is and we sincerely apologize for the initial miscommunication regarding the charges. Moving forward, we’ll ensure that all cost details are provided more clearly upfront to avoid confusion. Your feedback helps us improve, and we hope to continue providing the care your pet deserves
Expérience positive: UPDATE ARRIVED at 5 10 Monday to pick up medication. Reception staff refused because they are doing inventory. Blackberry is out of medication. Not posted on website. Supposed to be open till 8. Not apologetic. No problem solving. Not client or pet centric. Near Roncy I am really happy I made the switch. Follow-up is strong. Reception staff are kind.
Dear Christine, we are truly sorry about your experience on Monday. We have taken note and will improve our communication with our clients regarding closures. We are sorry that our team was unable to assist you and will be speaking with them about how this should be handled in the future. We hope that you will give us another chance. If you are open to calling our management team to discuss this further, please call 416 535 8387.
Sincerely, Lindsay & Zoe
Expérience fantastique: Amazing team here at Dundas West Animal Hospital! Very caring and respectful, giving me all my options and helping me decide what were the best options for my cat at this time. I see why this location was highly recommended to me by my friends.
We never take positive feedback like this for granted. Exceeding clients' expectations is what motivates us. Knowing we did that for you will inspire our team to keep raising the bar! Thank you! ⭐️
Expérience fantastique: I went to this clinic because my dog's vet moved there. The moment we stepped foot into Dundas West Animal Hospital, I knew we were in the right hands! Thank you to the helpful and wonderful people on the staff and especially to Dr Kai Moore!
Thank you so much for your kind words! We’re thrilled to hear that you felt welcomed and well cared for.
Expérience fantastique: I brought my cat in, who had been very badly matted and had been told by other places that he would need to be sedated, but because of his size, he might pass away. I was extremely distraught and was terrified of something happening to my kitty. But the staff and doctor had assured me that would not happen and couldn't believe I was actually told that. I left my kitty and not too long after, I got the call to come pick him up. They told me everything went very well and my baby was totally fine and he had no more matts. I was obviously thrilled and relieved. I cannot thank the staff and doctor enough for what they did. So very grateful for helping my baby.
Your kind words mean so much! We understand how worrying vet visits can be, so we aim to ease every pet parent's concerns. Thank you for entrusting us with your fur baby - we don't take that responsibility lightly! ⭐️
Expérience négative: I choose this clinic because of the convenience of having all test done in house but I will not be going back to this clinic ever. I took my dog here in 2022 and I was happy, came back last year June and after a month my dog had an me on a panic mode so I took him for emergency check up which the doctor did not find anything but states my dog who is 13 at that time has a heart problem and I should look into getting a cardiologist vet … I declined my dog has never had heart problem..fast forward to yesterday without doing any test I was told my dog has cancer, heart problem and was given a pain medication…

We have tried to reach out to follow-up with you regarding your concerns. If you would like to chat further, please give us a call at (416) 535-8387.
Expérience fantastique: We are new to Dundas West Animal Hospital, having switched from a corporate clinic several months ago (enough said!). His introduction meeting several months ago was great. The vet and vet tech were very supportive and thorough in this examination, easily building trust with our dog Whisky, and showing sincere care for a slightly nervous boy. Our boy Whisky was neutered earlier today and the care provided by the team was exceptional. Communication was frequent, detailed and very helpful every step of the way! Our vet tech, Alex, was absolutely lovely. As all dog parents can attest, we know when people are sincerely interested in the well-being of our fur-children. The vet who did the operation, Dr. Moore, called afterwards to provide a helpful update and explain next steps. I very much appreciated the conversation. I also appreciated the attention to the pre-op and post-op stages - providing medication to help with understandable pre-op nervousness and post-op pain control; and providing detailed post-op instructions to ensure a smooth and speedy recovery. Whisky is now resting comfortably at home. My wife and I highly recommend the team at Dundas West. Many thanks again Alex and Dr. Moore!
Thank you so much for the kind review, Scott! We understand how stressful it can be having a member of your family in the hospital. We are glad we could make it a little easier for you. Give Whisky a pat from us!
Expérience négative: I’ve refrained from writing this review but I think it’s about time. We brought our 15 year old cat in for an oral infection, they fed us tales of cancer so we opted for more tests and insisted we needed a 5 grand surgery. When I picked my cat up from the initial assessment she was covered in her own vomit and feces. I understand it is not common practise for vets to bathe cats, but when they’ve had an accident and you’ve been paid thousands of dollars for their care should you not? We asked them to call when she was ready, they never did. I eventually called and they said oh ya she’s been ready for hours. Upon getting her, she handed her to me, told me the medication suggested then said hang on a second let me go get your cat. Who she just handed to me. We got a second opinion, not only did our cat not need a surgery but she had ecoli from being left in her own filth. Now all 3 of our cats have ecoli due to Dundas west animal hospitals lack of care for your furry friends. Not to mention they’ve killed a dog due to negligence. So when looking for a vet, look away from this place. Unless you want your animal to suffer, you to go broke, and your animal to lose years off of their life.
Hi Lauren, we’re deeply sorry to hear about your experience and the distress it caused. We strive to provide the highest level of care, and it’s disheartening to learn that we fell short. The situation you’ve described is not reflective of the standards we aim to uphold, and we take your concerns seriously. Our goal is always to offer accurate diagnoses and compassionate care, and we regret any miscommunication or lapse in service. We are reviewing your feedback thoroughly to address these issues and improve our practices. If you’d like to discuss this further, please contact us directly. Thank you for bringing this to our attention.
Expérience fantastique: Really great vet practice. Went for the past 2 years to care for my senior cat, and recently had his end-of-life care there. All the Drs and vet techs I met were great. The prices are a bit expensive but that’s what you expect for good vet care, and they were always good about telling me my options for my budget. The cat clinic has amazing facilities which made difficult appointments comfortable both for me and for my cat. I was worried about doing end-of-life procedure in a “cold/clinical” environment, but it really didn’t feel that way in the end. They were very patient and caring at our last appointment, and sent a kind sympathy card afterwards. You can’t really ask for anything more from a vet.
Thank you for your touching review, Finley. We are deeply sorry for your loss and humbled by your kind words. Our team strives to provide the best care possible, and we are glad to have been there for you and your beloved cat during such a difficult time. Your appreciation means the world to us.
Please know that you and your pet are in our thoughts. If you ever need anything in the future, we are here for you.
Expérience positive: Big thanks to the team at this vet clinic. They were very helpful and patient with me and my reactive dog. I highly recommend it. Also shout-out Dr. Randy Do she's was great with Henny.
Thank you for your review and kind words, Jahmal. We do our very best to provide the attention each of our clients needs and deserves. We enjoy having your fur babies; we hope you all come by soon!
Expérience fantastique: It is never easy to hear something is going on with your furry family member but it is such a relief to have a doctor and hospital you can trust! I have been coming to Dundas West Animal hospital for 5 years now and can say with confidence regardless of where I live I will keep coming back! I have worked with various doctors here and all of them have been very supportive, compassionate and informative. Recently I have brought in my 11 year old beagle in to see Dr. Aaron and it turned out my old girl had cancerous mass. Dr. Aaron was incredibly supportive mentally and emotionally. He took the time to calmly explain the situation, answer my many dumb questions and walk me through next steps. Even though it is sad news and a stressful time, I am incredibly grateful to have an advocate like Dr. Aaron that I trust and can lean on for support! I appreciate all that he and the lovely staff at Dundas West Animal Hospital do for mine and others furry friends! Highly recommend a visit!
Hi Simay, Thank you so much for your kind words and for sharing your experience. We’re deeply touched by your appreciation for Dr. Aaron and our team. We strive to provide compassionate and supportive care, especially during challenging times, and it's wonderful to hear that our efforts made a difference for you and your beagle. Thank you for your continued trust in us over the years. We look forward to being here for you and your furry family members for many years to come.
Expérience fantastique: We are so grateful to Dundas West Animal Hospital for the wonderful care our sweet Nica received after an accident last weekend. From the moment we walked into the clinic, the receptionists were incredibly helpful and so kind, squeezing us in and finding a doctor who was able to see Nica and get her on a path to recovery. Everyone we have interacted with at the clinic has been so kind, patient, caring and incredibly knowledgeable, letting us ask as many questions as we need and helping us feel reassured that Nica is in the best hands. In just 1 week, we were were able to have Nica seen for an unscheduled urgent appointment, were provided with a follow-up, Nica was scheduled in for dental surgery and we were provided with support, phone call follow-ups, report cards and written care instructions at every turn. We are eternally grateful to the whole team at Dundas West Animal Hospital who took care of our beautiful girl.Thank you <3
Reviews like this remind us why we love what we do, Olivia. Providing excellent veterinary care is our top priority, so we appreciate you recognizing our efforts.
Expérience fantastique: After a couple of unsettling and unimpressive visits to another Vet Clinic a friend encouraged me to try Dundas West Animal Hospital for my 18 year old cat. I have been so impressed with the care and professionalism that we received on each visit and on the follow up phone calls, after Lily's surgery. Lil's incision is healing well and she really bounced back well after a pretty long procedure. The dedicated Cat Clinic is an added bonus. Vet care is expensive but at least I feel I am getting the best care for my old gal. Very happy with all aspects of our encounters.
We never take positive feedback like this for granted. Exceeding clients' expectations is what motivates us. Knowing we did that for you will inspire our team to keep raising the bar! Thank you! ⭐️
Expérience fantastique: The moment my pup and I stepped foot into Dundas West Animal Hospital, I could tell we were in the right hands! After a horrible vet experience in the city, I was in search for a new clinic and I was extremely happy we chose them! The doctors and staff here clearly LOVE what they do. They are passionate about animals and they are extremely knowledgeable, supportive, caring, and kind people! They adhere to not only the animals’ needs and feelings, but their humans as well. They appreciate the fact that coming to the vet can indicate a difficult time in your pets life, and they do everything possible to ensure a safe, comfortable experience for all. You are greeted with smiles, hugs, and lots of treats! My dog absolutely loves coming in for routine check ups and both him and I no longer have vet anxiety!

Thank you for the thoughtful feedback, Venezia! We know vet visits can be stressful for many pets, so our top priority is making them as comfortable as possible. We're glad we could provide a low-stress experience for your furry friend. Give your pup a pat from us!
Expérience fantastique: Great place to recommend We was traveling from Canada to EU, personnel helped us with understanding of all the paperwork needed and helped to pick up the most suitable time for an appointment. Vet was very professional and kind, all the documents necessary was prepared in a great way, no second visit to fix them was needed. Most importantly, our dog wasn't in stress during check-up, and complimentary nail trim made her even happier
We strive to make every client feel like family, so your thoughtful feedback means so much, Ivan. Knowing we have your trust and confidence motivates us. Thank you for taking a moment to share your positive experience - it truly made our day! ⭐️
Expérience fantastique: Two weeks ago I was sent to Dundas West hospital as my regular vet was too busy. My elderly dog was quite sick. Not only did we get the immediate service we needed, but also the answers we may have not have wanted, but in a kind, gentle and supportive way. Dr. Fuller was amazing. Sweet, informative, kind and loving to my dog and supported me in making a difficult decision. Although my elderly dog passed last week, I have transferred care to Dundas West for my 4 month old puppy. Again Dr. Fuller was amazing and the technician Ryan was so caring and kind. I felt so supported. In the busy and crazy world we now live in, I feel like I got the personal service I needed at Dundas West, with a gentle kind family like manner that every pet and animal owner deserve. Thank you for restoring my trust. Dr. B. Fuller and Ryan, you are AWESOME!
Thank you for the amazing review and you have our heartfelt condolences. We know your pets are like family so we work hard to treat each patient with the same love and care we would give our own. Hearing we succeeded in doing that for you is the best compliment. We're so grateful you took the time to share your experience. ⭐️
Expérience fantastique: Exceptional care and service! This vet clinic truly goes above and beyond. The staff is knowledgeable, compassionate, and always willing to answer any questions I have. I trust them completely with the health and well-being of my Morty. I highly recommend this vet clinic to all pet owners looking for top-notch care and a welcoming environment for their beloved pets.
Reviews like this remind us why we love what we do, Shawn. Providing excellent veterinary care is our top priority, so we appreciate you recognizing our efforts.
Expérience fantastique: Love DWAH! I only trust my fur babies with this animal hospital here in Toronto. My fur babies are always so excited to see all the staff there! Can you imagine my dogs don’t have PTSD from the vet office even if Zeus had his neuter surgery there. All my vet visits with them are amazing! Staff are so friendly and they take time to explain things. Dr. Moore was so great and empathetic about Deen’s condition. She comforted me and reassured me that my girl is in best hands. She walked us through all the test results and was very patient with all my queries. Thanks for everything you do, DWAH team love, Zeus, Deen, and Artemis
Thank you for your review and kind words! We do our very best to provide the attention each of our clients and their furry friends need and deserve. We hope to see you soon. ⭐️
Expérience fantastique: I cannot recommend Dundas West Animal Hospital highly enough. It is clear that everyone who works there LOVES AMIMALS, from the front of house staff, to the technicians, to the vets. My dog is actually happy and excited to visit this place, which says a lot! They have always been kind and accommodating when I need to make an urgent appointment. Dr. Do is truly a treasure. I trust this place with my dog's life and feel so grateful to have found them.

Expérience fantastique: I have no words to describe my incredible experience in this vet. Every person there is so kind and lovely they really care about your pet and provide the best care and support. Doctor Alex and doctor Debbie are amazing. I’m really so greatful I found them and they will be my babies doctors for the rest of their lives

We strive to provide compassionate, high-quality care to all of our patients, so it means the world to hear we exceeded your expectations. Thanks again for the kind words - they really made our day!
Expérience fantastique: Dundas West Animal Hospital is really the very best in care, friendliness, and expertise ! I love that I feel so confident taking their advice and having my Freya cared for by all of the wonderful vets and assistants. So nice to know that there are still vets that care about our precious little furbabies :)
Thank you for the great feedback. We are glad to hear that you had a good experience!
Expérience négative: I wouldn't recommend this place - especially if you're dealing with serious health concerns - because they charge a lot, but don't seem to have the experience to back it up. Mistakes get made that could be prevented. We were patients here for several years but ultimately decided to move on after my dog's case of acute pancreatitis was mismanaged by the clinic. After several days in their care, we wound up being sent to an emergency vet clinic in Scarborough and were told that Dundas West was calling ahead to set up an immediate intake for us upon arrival. However, the place they sent us to does not do that, and we were completely unprepared for this. The more experienced vet we finally saw at the emergency clinic called into question some of the drugs and dosages that our dog was given at Dundas West as well as the logic of sending him home each day. This confirmed my suspicion that his treatment hadn't been handled properly. Specifically: His case of pancreatitis required continuous treatment, but Dundas West had him coming in during the day and then at home with us at night because they didn't have the facilities to house him overnight. If he had received continuous treatment, he would have recovered faster (and it certainly wouldn't have cost me as much to deal with it more efficiently). Looking back on it, I presume they were interested in keeping things in-house to make money, or they may have been ignorant of their shortcomings. Perhaps they were naive about how acute his condition was. Maybe all of the above. They also overdosed him on methodone when sending him home for the night to the point where he couldn't even stand. When I brought this to their attention the next day, nobody seemed to know what the other ones had done. These things made a difficult situation much harder. It didn't sit right with me that my dog suffered for longer than he needed to because of the poor care he received from the clinic.
Hi Candace, we are sorry to hear your experience has left you feeling this way. Our aim is always to provide gold standard medicine but work within your means. Management has tried to reach out to you to discuss your concerns. Please contact us at your convenience. Thank you.
Expérience fantastique: Dundas West Vet have opened up a cat hospital last year, and I have nothing but positive things to say, as the service and expertise in dealing with my cats has been excellent. Dr. Bahlmann, a feline specialist, was able to diagnose a rare condition in my cat that had not been sorted out prior to this. She is a great diagnostician, and caring veterinarian, who follows up on my cats when they have had issues. The staff as well have all been excellent, and I know my pets are good care with them.
Thank you for your review and kind words! We do our very best to provide the attention each of our clients and their furry friends need and deserve. We hope to see you soon. ⭐️
Expérience fantastique: This clinic came highly recommended by my community once I stated I was looking for a vet that is soft and caring for my senior cats. I sadly had to put my 16 year old to sleep but Dr. Drago and the rest of the staff were so amazing, caring, patient and thoughtful. It really was a great experience despite it having been one of the worst days of my life. I opted for a private cremation through the company they deal with and got to select a special urn..Im just waiting to go pick it up. I would recommend this clinic to anyone I know with pets, and the biggest blessing is that they have separated their cat and dog clinics...makes for a much nicer experience. Thank you all, I'll be booking more appointments soon for my other two kitties
We're so glad we could be there for you and your pet during a difficult time, Ashleigh. Easing your worries is hugely important to us. Thank you for recognizing our compassionate care when you needed it most!
Expérience positive: We visited dundas west for the first time yesterday. Front desk left a bit of a sour taste in my mouth- a smile and good customer service won't kill you. My biggest pet peeve is when you go to the vet and they try to sell you on any and every product in the clinic. Dr Fuller is one of those vets that does not do that, and that is why we followed him from our previous clinic. Ben is SO incredibly kind and patient with my very very anxious dog. We are forever grateful for him. The vet tech he was working with (tall blonde, i cant remember her name, sorry!) was a lovely human being as well. Those two as a team are very pleasant to work with. Parking/getting around in that area is AWFUL and will potentially be a deterent for bringing Moose in for all his services, but his checkups/vaccines will 100% be with Dr Fuller!
Hi Claudia, Thank you for all your kind words! Our goal is for every client to feel 100% satisfied with their experience here and we're genuinely sorry to hear that your visit did not meet the compassionate and caring standards we strive to uphold. Your feedback is invaluable, and we appreciate the opportunity to address your concerns. Please know that we will review this incident internally and take appropriate measures to ensure that such experiences are not repeated. If you would be open to discussing your visit further or if there's anything specific you would like us to address, please feel free to reach out.
Expérience fantastique: Very professional clinic, the staff is very helpful and they make sure to accommodate all their patients for the best service. My partner went in while I was working and he was very pleased with how the appointment went and the clear solutions brought up for our cat. We felt that we could trust their expertise and we will gladly come back for further checkups. The fact that there are two hospitals (one for dogs and one for cats) is also a great thing, it makes us feel like our pet is the main focus as they only deal with cats in that part of the hospital, which is a service you don’t always get in other veterinary clinics which mix all breads of pets. They were very transparent about the costs of all the options that were suggested to us which we found very professional. Overall very happy with this clinic and we would gladly recommend to those who live on the west end.
Hello Cloé, thank you for your fantastic review! We are grateful for this feedback as our staff prides themselves so much on providing this gold-star service! Thank you!
Expérience fantastique: I’m so impressed by the staff at this clinic. Everyone from the intake/front desk, nurses, and vets are so helpful, friendly, patient, and professional. The clinic works seamlessly with the rescue my foster dog is affiliated with- Golden Rescue Canada- and have been so kind and loving towards him. The clinic is also located in a convenient area in the west end.
We never take positive feedback like this for granted. Exceeding clients' expectations is what motivates us. Knowing we did that for you will inspire our team to keep raising the bar! Thank you! ⭐️
Expérience fantastique: Best vet in the city! Dr. Kim Buchanan is great with our dog. She is very knowledgeable and trustworthy. We always know we are in good hands. They do a great job following up after a procedure. All the staff are very welcoming.
Thank you for the 5 stars! We strive to provide excellent service and are glad you had a positive experience.
Expérience fantastique: You know your vet is amazing when your dogs don't ever want to come home. I highly recommend Dundas West Animal Hospital. I've been trusting them with my pets for a number of years now. I cannot express how much I appreciated how helpful and kind they were when my cat suddenly passed away at 7 months old from FIV. Now having two dogs I truly appreciate how honest they are, how they focus on preventative care and never try to up sell or push services on you. Most of all, they take care and approach every situation with empathy. Huge shout out to Doctor Alex F.
Hi Vanessa, thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. We know how important your pet is to you because we are owners ourselves and huge animal enthusiasts. We love what we do and reviews like this truly make our day! Thanks again!
Expérience fantastique: I have been using the Dundas West Animal Hospital for about 5 years now, and the whole team has been wonderful in providing excellent care for my dogs. Highly professional, efficient and kind. They work well as a team and always follow up with after care.
