If a pet requires bloodwork prior to surgery, or if you need to know what is wrong with your pet at the time of a consultation, you need to wait 1-2 days to get results back requiring you to make not one, but two (or more) very stressful trips - first to get the bloodwork done and then a followup appointment for an actual procedure or treatment. We also feel that Dr. Cropper did not truly listen or take our concerns and observations seriously about how extremely stressful it was on our cat to make not one, but numerous visits to the clinic. This lack of consideration may have even been a contributing factor to renal failure in our cat after a routine dental procedure. Dr. Cropper may have been a good veterinarian at one time, but perhaps it is time for him to retire.

Claire is equally outstanding - friendly, knowledgeable, and always ready to lend a hand. Her patience and understanding are so appreciated. We're grateful for the expertise, care and camaraderie that Dr. Paulderman, Claire, and the Caufeild Vet team bring to our family. They truly bond with animals and the families they serve.

My senior dog was not doing so great with the care he was receiving and since we followed the suggestions out of our own hesitations from a bad experience prior around Librela and slowly swapped my senior dog to gentler natural arthritis medication and got him on kidney medication my senior who was in pain monthly is at greater peace and in much less pain now. He has really improved and we are so grateful. In addition to this, my puppy gets great care and both Puppy and Senior got great treatment for some severe stomach bugs recently even when medication was scarce, we are so grateful about how Vancouver Downtown Pet Hospital ensures our dogs all get great care and the most natural supportive effective care possible for their individual needs as though Soda and Nono Bean were members of their own families.

If you don't mind not knowing that your fur baby is dying, over a period of 4 years and then when…read moreinformed that they had kidney issues from a blood test from back , not informed, but it didn't matter because they were up 15 points since then you have to wonder who you're dealing with. The blood test taken 4 months before he actually passed was a death sentence. Doctor namazi's only comment at the time was you know you have a senior dog. I sent all of the blood tests from 4 years ago and current one through chat GPT and was astonished and in anguish over the careless attitude of this vet. One I had been referred to as perfect and who I had at once time thought sat at the right hand of God. I told him at the time for months before he died during that blood test that I thought that he probably had a UTI. It was suggested I give him another test. I didn't need to it showed up in his blood work. I took my dog in because at one point in a walk he just stopped and didn't do anything for a minute or two. Well you know what it was? It was a sunset moment for him. It was proof of his dementia beginning. But no let's do a $400 blood test first. Then let's try and wring $137 UTI test out of it. Let's tell the owner that the dog now needs to be on kidney medication at 90 bucks a pop and on special kidney food. Not 4 years before in the previous blood test and not divulged. So nothing was done. Let's tell them now and let's not apologize. Let's just tell the owner that they should be grateful because the kidney actually is up 15 points from the last blood test. Like he had anything to do with it. Like now that it's better it's mandatory to have him on medication and proper food but not 4 years before what it might have mattered. My dog made it 4 months past the last blood test. When I took him in to cross the Rainbow Bridge the vet looked at his blood test and said whose blood test is that? And I said it's my dog's blood test. He said what dog? That dog? And I said yeah that dog. Paco. How long ago was this test taken he said? I said a little over 4 months ago, why? He said well did you give him a blood transfusion? And I said no why? Why are you asking these questions? And he said even was a blood test I wouldn't have given your dog a week. And yet he made it 4 months. I asked the vet why do you think that was and he said because I think you were a very good owner and gave him very good care and because he didn't want to leave you. Dr namazi never mentioned anything about his Twilight memory. He just charged me $400 for really unnecessary blood work and $90 for kidney medication and never even mentioned that Paco may have been facing cognition issues. So I just really really good care of him. And I brought him home to the Rainbow Bridge just before Christmas. I think of that like Dr namazi should not be allowed to practice and I will be writing a letter with the complete story to the College of Veterinary medicine. So if you don't care if your vet forgets to tell you important medical information that will kill your pet sooner than later and then brush it off as if it is nothing then please continue to see this doctor. If you don't mind that he just loves to bill for the sake of billing and then do nothing with the results including telling you of any danger, and letting that go 4 years? Then please continue to use this veterinarian. But if you're suddenly surprised with the shock death of your pet or if you're surprised by the shock setback of your pet by something like kidney disease that was not divulged and was too late to do anything about then carry on. I didn't even get so much as an apology. In fact the only thing I got from this vet hospital was a reminder that Paco had shots due. After he was dead. I didn't let this doctor anywhere near Paco after I found out how much he lied to me and I found out what was really in those tests. And I strongly advise anyone with pets to make sure you get copies of all the tests and you run them through AI. You'll be astounded at what you don't know and what they have kept from you and how much it is hurt your pet. I will never in a million years understand why a veterinarian would act in such a callous and malignant manner. All the while projecting and empathetic and sympathetic demeanor. I think people like him are the most dangerous people to know in any business. But particularly when it comes to children and pets. Shame on him. I will be taking this matter up in the courts as well. What a waste of $900.

I have gone as far as North Vancouver in search of Doctors that aren't practicing ' corporate veterinary services ' The corporate model is based on the color of your credit card with very little focus on your animal. Its about up selling and promoting food products that offer the clinics 'incentives' One of those incentive food products put my dog into emergency. The vet suggested the change ( which was not necessary except to pad his wallet ) and after spending over $1000 I went back to my regular food. So I have searched for those people who actually put the animal in first position. Who will take a measured and considered approach to the situation at hand. Its not about checking off the boxes to get the most dollars per visit. Its about the health and well being of your pet and best friend. At the Point Grey Veterinarian clinic, I felt both comfortable and confident with the treatment received here. They extended their hearts to me in times of concern for my dogs.

Our only point of criticism is that we were not informed about the dosages for the antibiotics. Just to be given twice a day. The bill came to $507, which is standard in the Vancouver area. The big ticket item was the urinalysis, which is necessary to see if it is more than a UTI. I would recommend this place. We really liked Dr. Dodds.
