VCA Canada Morningside Animal Hospital

Best place to take your furry companions. Friendly, excellent doctors and staff. I trust my babies with them.

My first appointment with this clinic for my 5 year old dog. He was due for his annual vaccination plus he started having seizures a week earlier. The staff has been completely efficient, professional and pleasant to deal with. Everything has been explained fully to me, including the fees I would be billed for all his care. The clinic was clean, well laid out and a tv in one section. The only negative which is common to almost every clinic I've ever been in is that there's no hitching post. Hard to rummage through a purse or pockets while holding on to a dog. There should be a hook on the wall to attach the leash to. Appointment times so far have been completely convenient.

Dr. Etherington is a wonderful vet!! He was awesome with both my dog and cat, was very informative and didn't use scare tactics to try to up sell other services which was much appreciated.

Do not bring your animals here for a check up unless you want to mortgage your house. The staff is nice, agreed, however, I have a small dog that has a collapsed trachea and an enlarge heart. I have been bounced around to three different clinics and they all say different things. I did a follow up today as I was given a recommendation and all of a sudden that recommendation was in correct. I will never bring my animals to this clinic again and I am filing a complaint against this doctor and clinic. People be aware.........

Was quoted $61 for a cat checkup. During visit was told a quote would be provided prior to any procedures. That was good. The billing was in the $80 's for the exam not $60. She said the prices were changed as of today. There was a $57 charge for a return visit. Turns out they advance bill then refund you the next visit. There was a $50 fee to shave some hair and swab a small infection. I felt that should have been part of the $60 experience and said no. An antibiotic was agreed on and the vet was going to take my cat with her to another room to administer the shot which I'd never seen in all the years of vet visits. I declined that and requested her to bring the shot and administer it with me present which she did. Left a little unsettled. Realized later the vet didn't check for fleas...somewhat a basic thing that should be done...anyway the staff and vet were all pleasant.
