I was not impressed with Dr Shattuck nor Dr Johnson. I took my dog to have a wellness exam by Dr…read moreShattuck and she did virtually nothing in her exam of him. When I was concerned about him a month later I took him in to see Dr Johnson and she had to be guided through the exam as she was constantly asking permission to do different things. I had to tell her I wanted a full blood test done as well as a urine screen. We found out he had a UtI and was given an antibiotic. What she didn't seen in the bloodwork was issues of concern which I later found out were markers for cancer. The emergency vet I took him to made a request of Royle to send his bloodwork early in the day and the ER vet never received it and had to do another full bloodwork screen at a cost of $500. I will never take my dogs to them again and would caution others from doing so.

Amber was firm with me that Kizmet should also have a fecal test. I was reluctant because my finances are limited right now, but I went ahead and did it and I'm so glad I did because the light of my life, my joy, my most precious little gift from heaven, my little Kizmet came up positive for hookworm. The next person I interacted with was Jess, who was compassionate and very capable and patient in her interactions with me. She explained everything to me and I had my prescription within the hour. I'm beyond grateful to this clinic. If your looking for a skilled, efficient and compassionate facility for your Pet, this is the one. Thank you North County Animal Hospital

Based on the excellent reviews, I was genuinely looking forward to establishing care for our dog…read morewith this practice. Unfortunately, despite multiple phone calls and voicemails over several days, I never received a response. I understand that veterinary clinics can be very busy, and I appreciate how demanding their work can be. However, timely communication is an important part of patient care, especially for new clients trying to schedule an appointment. Without being able to reach anyone, we had no choice but to look elsewhere for our dog's care. It's disappointing because everything I had read suggested this would have been a wonderful veterinary practice. I hope they can improve their responsiveness so future clients have a better experience than we did.

Driving to pick him up terrified about what these unknown lacerations are how bad,??? Alllllllll the vets I call are busy. I'm sorry to whatever angel of patience answered the phone at this place. When she told me she wasn't sure if I could get in.... I freaked out WHAT AM I SUPPOSED TO DO IN AN EMERGENCY?! How can EVERYONE be busy? They said he's bleeding what am I to do let him bleed out??? Bless her heart, she kept her cool. Get to him, take a look and call us back and let us know how bad it is bleeding she told me. I did that, and she told me to come on in. I'm already feeling better because it's not super bad & now at least I know he can be seen. Never knew this place existed! Get there and immediately feel relieved. Calm vibe, everyone was super friendly & Sky!! Let me just tell ya' I actually stole a hug before I left! I felt like a friend or an auntie. I was totally taken care of with such respect. Sky was personable, kind, relatable and professional. More help than I knew I needed!! Thank you Sky and everyone at EPAH!! We will be back, we are changing vets!!

I would never take another animal here ever again. There is…read moresomething wrong with a vet who stands at a distance and doesn't pet, palpate or talk to a clean and well behaved dog. There is no excuse! Also, when I spoke to her during my dog's dental cleaning, she responded angrily when I said we could only do a portion of the work needed at this time due to expenses. When I got him home only the right side of his mouth was cleaned and he was adversely affected by the anesthesia for two weeks. For dental care, do not come here. There are specialty Pet Dental offices who know what they are doing and CARE about your animal. Not this place. It's only the money they care about.

My dog was recently diagnosed with Diabetes and Dr. Ferguson was so patient with my long list of…read morequestions and concerns. This review is long overdue actually as I've been taking my dogs to him for several years now and every time I see him, I'm blown away by his knowledge and ability to explain things in a way that is easy to understand. I never feel judged or coerced like at other places. It's one of the few vet offices that's not owned by a big corporation. He doesn't nickel and dime you nor recommend anything unneeded. His whole team is phenomenal and go above and beyond to take care of us. I wish he took human patients. When he retires, there will be a vast void in vet options in Vancouver

We have been taking our cats, as kittens and adults to Animal Medical for about ten years now, and…read moreall I can say is Dr. Ferguson would make an excellent human doctor and I would trust him even with my own life. That is saying something as I, myself, am a human medical professional. He is gentle and genuinely cares for the pets, gives good advice in an almost off-hand manner, and refers to other practices if treatment would surpass the capacity of his own. His practice is limited, so don't expect a fancy ER or ICU for pets, but he does an amazing job diagnosing and understanding small animals. And the psychology of their owners, as well. That's another issue. He is straight foreward, thorough and knowledgeable and he has little interest in expensive add-ons or padding the bill. His charges are reasonable, especially considering the bills one finds at local 'animal hospitals' which border on human-scale expensive. I have also had him 'put down' a pet who was beyond hope and he is sensitive and responsive to such grim occasions. I can think of nothing unkind to say.

It is clear how much they adore dogs, and returning them to an active life is their purpose. Beyond the therapy, each visit they looked any Benny for the progress of his recovery. At one point they reminded me that he really needs his two good walks a day. It made me realize that I needed to do better on his walks, and started the regimen. Beyond speeding his recovery, he has come to love his walk time. Benny is that aloof poodle where life is transactional. He was never sure that walks were cool, and he had to be convinced. Not anymore. He loves his walks. The first time around we used a different business, but you can just stop at Splash. TPLO surgery is enough of a difficult challenge. Splash made months 3 and 4, where he was off meds and wanting to do more, not just tolerable but successful. Benny is back. Freshly groomed, he is his old self. Thank you Splash.

We've been going to Kristen for over 5 years now and can honestly say she's single handedly chaged…read morethe lives of all three of our dogs: 1. Our senior girl swam with Kristen until the very end. It was the highlight of her week, and likely extended her life by at least a year. Her swimming improved her mobility, made her feel silly and goofy after, and helped us enjoy her until she was nearly 16! 2. Our young pup has elbow dysplasia, and at 1 year old our surgeon, Dr. Novo, recommended we see Kristen instead of surgery. She did great, avoided surgery and has no elbow issues. A year and a half ago she tore her cruciate ligament and subsequently had to have two TPLOs back to back. With a combination of underwater treadmill and Kristen's expertise, followed by a transition to swimming in the pool and she's got all the mobility of a young dog again! She's now 6 and in great health. 3. Our third dog strained his psoas and again underwater treadmill rehab was recommended. With Kristen's guidance he bounced back and now swims with his sister as often as he can in the pool. Both of our living dogs were seen by a new vet recently and she couldn't stop complimenting their body condition. She thought our 8 year old was 3 he has such great muscle tone Without Kristen I'm not sure where our dogs would be, but I'm thankful everyday we don't have to find out. I recommend hydrotherapy with Kristen to everyone for their pets, injured or not!
