Veterinarian

Always take care of our cat, offer great advice and super friendly staff.

First vet trip ever for both me and my cat. Friendly, knowledgeable, and answered all my questions. Less expensive than I'd expected too.

Just want to take a little time to say A BIG THANK YOU to the staff at Dartmouth Veterinary Hospital. For taking care our pet Zoey. If you need to take your pet for an emergency this is the place to go. Thanks to everyone who took care of her.

A nice friendly environment to take your pet to for a check up and for treatment if your pet needs it.

The ACH team is exemplary, always offering cuddles and cookies to my cats when they come visit. They offer to clean your kennel anytime your cat has soiled themselves on the way, and have a nifty cart to wheel kitties from the car up to the office, which would otherwise be quite a long way to carry more than one cat at a time. Dr. Forgeron was definitely my favourite vet, who I was very sad to hear left the clinic after she got a full time position. She always gave my cats extra love and helped with lifestyle concerns, not just purely medical ones, and took her time with each clinical encounter. ACH also has many diagnostics available in-clinic, which helps alleviate anxiety quickly when a not-yet diagnosed condition rears its head. The team always comes armed with a second (or third!) body to keep kitties still during tests, allowing the guardian to feed treats during examination & procedural ordeals. I love that the doctor's provide you with their clinical impression, the conclusion of your discussion, and home instructions in writing every time you get your receipt. I think the most unique part of this office is the knowledgeability of the reception and vet tech staff. They're always willing to take a panicked phone call, recommend a supplement, and have an evidence-based conversation, in addition to testing products on their own cats to offer some anecdotal advice. I wish I could take my dog here!

I brought my cat in because of suspected bladder problems and ended up with a bill of over $400 spread throughout multiple visits. My cat is anxious and hates the vet, they weren’t very accommodating and made me come back multiple times because the sedative medication they gave ‘wasn’t strong enough’. Eventually they ended up giving him an IV line to knock him out, and the tests turned out negative. The multiple visits created more stress for him instead of just getting the tests done on the first go. They love to try and sell you on extra medications and treatments for your pet, I felt like I was at a sales centre instead of a vet. I’ve been to a different vet before and after this incident and my cat has only needed to be sedated at this one location. I’m glad I’ve found a new vet since.

A warm and kind staff, well-known for working with local non-profit Hope for Wildlife, and caring for all sorts of animals. Professional and knowledgeable. Worth your time and business.

Dr Barry and his team Dr Jessica and Dr Susan along with all the techs and desk folks are truly amazing, couldn't do what they do every day

Terrible work ethic. Always screaming and yelling at eachother where the customers can hear. Employees constantly quitting due to abuse and harassment not only from the doctors but also from other senior employees. Should be ashamed at allowing such a thing when the industry is difficult enough to navigate. They reuse items that should only be one use to 'save money' and the back of the clinic, especially where the animals are kept is always filthy. They will also house pets near eachother regardless of they have been diagnosed with anything contagious such as kennel cough, fleas, etc.

Amazing staff. 2:40am emergency with dog and they were so kind and fast to act. 100% recommend

I've boarded Widdershins a few times now and have been pleased every time. He's a one witch black cat who treats everyone but me like his own personal scratching post. I know that he will never be a cuddly kitty with other people and they understand that here. They don't infringe on his personal hiss space, but keep him warm, fed, clean and safe. He could have a great time and be played with and cuddled and petted. All the other cats are. It's reassuring when I am out of the country to know that his vet is just up the stairs if anything were to go wrong. Thanks to all of the staff who tried so hard to be friends with Widdershins. He appreciates it deep, deep, deeep down in his black kitty heart. ( and I do too!)

Great vet for rehab and sports dogs. Our dogs love Full Circle

Very professional and loving with your pet. Great team.

By far the most respectful and professional vets in the HRM. I will always bring my pets.

All of the employees are so kind and are hard working. To make your visit great.

The most caring staff anywhere!

As usual, very little wait time, caring and competent staff. My dog actually looks forward to her visits! I highly recommend them.

I don't know what we would do without Jeff and Alicia
