We have been going to Dr. Ashburner for the last 8 years after our dog attacked our pet rabbit. Dr. Ashburner went beyond the call of duty to keep our little guy alive, checking many times over the coarse of a couple of nights to make sure he was doing well. Our rabbit survived for many years after because of this care. We still take our dog there and we always get a good balance between a through examination and care without pushing unnecessary diagnostic procedures first (Granville Island Veterinary Clinic, I'm looking at you). He is very warm and attentive to both owners and pets. As mentioned in other reviews, not the fanciest office, but great service.

Our family has been going to this Vet for more than 15 years. Dr.Ashburner has been looking after all of our guinea pigs, hamsters, cats, and dogs with patience and care. His front office does not look like the inside of an over priced yuppie pet gadget store. This doctor is warm and sensitive to your animals needs and never gives you the feeling that he is rushing you. My animals have been sent home heathy or on the right path to recovery with his diagnosis always accurate. Your pet will melt in this man's hands because he is the genuine article. Check this pet hospital out!
