What an awful experience! I brought my cat in for a simple check up and prescription renewal. (This cat is diabetic and has been receiving insulin injections for over 5 years). The vet told me that without her old prescription from a previous vet he couldn't give the prescription without $250 worth or paperwork! I know this is untrue as I have received this prescription many times from different vets. Besides that, I had brought a copy of her prescription with me! He said they needed it faxed from the vet directly. Then they refused to contact my previous vet, and left my cat without her vital medication. As a healthcare worker myself, I know the cues of a ripoff and this vet was trying to coerce me into buying $250+ of procedures that were completely unnecessary.
Cannot say enough good things about this place. Dr. Brar really cares about the animals and also explains things well. The prices are great. I can afford this place and when they tell me a test needs to be done I believe them. I know they are cash grabbing. If you need a good vet go here. they are so awesome
I was completely non-plussed after my visit here. I had recently adopted an animal and chose this vet as my SPCA provided visit. He said the dog was in good health and that there was nothing wrong, even though we'd pointed out that he'd experienced two falls on his right hind leg and when he got up he would favour it and limp for quite some time. He dismissed it and said the dog was fine, ignoring the worn skin from where the dog had been licking his knee. After hiring a professional dog trainer, she immediately noticed that there was something wrong with this dog's right rear knee.We immediately sought out a second opinion. I went to another vet and discovered that it was in fact soft tissue damage, had a series of x-rays and examinations done, all at my great ($800+) expense. According to the other vet, it was a pre-existing condition. If you love your pet, I would seriously make sure that they either listen to you (as we were clearly ignored) or take your beloved animal elsewhere.
Father and son vet practice, Drs. Avtar and Kam, respectively. My dog blew out her one knee, then the other all within 6 weeks - so alot of vet visits. They call in a small animal surgeon, but all the care and ancillary services provided by the Brars and their team were excellent. Very gentle and knowledgeable and great hours. Open 8 to 10, but they will stay open later if necessary. Highly recommended.
This is a wonderful Vet. I was able to get a same day appointment for my cat. They took care of the problem, explained what had happened, provided medication, and patiently explained what exactly I needed to do. They helped me feel better about the situation, and showed that they genuinely care about the animals that come to them.
