Steveston Veterinary Hospital

Dr. Galloway is a very good vet when I brought in my dog for an emergency. She was friendly and loves animals. Yesterday, I went in to pick up some meds for my dog and also brought her in for an examination. She saw Dr. Ambrose. My dog was so anxious that they didn’t do an exam. I ended up being charged for $130 for the meds and exam. The meds was $40. The $90 was an exam which was never given. I was supposed to bring in my dog today for an exam at 2:45pm. At 8:40 I got a call for reschedule to 5:30pm today. I called back to cancel due to a conflict and was told I have to cancel 24 hours prior to the appointment. They will also charge me for another exam fee. I am very disappointed in their services.

I have been to a few veterinarians with my pets over the years, and I would highly recommend Dr. Galloway over any others. She is worth the drive for us! Dr. Galloway is clearly very knowledgeable, patient and kind to both her furry patients and their owners. She took her time explaining everything and answering my questions and concerns before and after my dogs neutering. The front staff were friendly and accommodating, and the prices are reasonable. I have heard from a few friends that she is very experienced in joint surgeries- and they have had great success with Dr Galloway.Will definitely be back and would not hesitate to recommend Steveston Veterinary Hospital to anyone looking for a wonderful vet.

The first time I brought my cat to the clinic I had absolutely no problem with the service and was overall satisfied. It is not until two months later that I come to find out that they completely misdiagnosed him and neglected my comments on very clear symptoms. Last night I had to take the cat to the emergency because he has lost vision in both of his eyes and his pupils were different in size, he also seemed to be in a lot of pain. At the emergency, I came to find out that his blindness was due to glaucoma caused by severe hypertension coming from a deeper underlying condition that is likely hyperthyroidism. Back at the vet clinic I have mentioned multiple symptoms of hyperthyroidism that the cat has been having progressively and the vet didn’t even consider checking him for it, didn’t even do bloodwork. The vet somehow also failed to notice the glaucoma that the cat clearly had at the time of the visit and was already going blind on one eye. Moreover, I was told at the emergency that he has severe heart murmur, which has likely been there for a long time. The cat has been continuously suffering for MONTHS and the doctor failed to notice. Right now, the only hope for him would be that the glaucoma medication works, otherwise I was told that he may need his eyes removed; however, he may not be a good candidate for surgery due to his age. Very sad outcome that could have been prevented by earlier diagnosis.

I recently brought my senior dog here and was blown away by the friendly and helpful staff. The Doctors and support staff were both informative and caring. They took the time to explain my treatment options and outcomes and made me feel at home.I would definitely recommend visiting Steveston Veterinary Hospital!

I’ve been seeing Dr. Galloway and the team for a number of years. They have always been so friendly and welcoming. I know they take really great care of my dog (who can sometimes be a challenge!!). They lead with compassion and understanding while wanting to provide the best options and recommendations for treatment. You can definitely tell they are true lovers of animals!! And the office pets are PRETTY great too!

Dr. Galloway and team seem like family with the way they care for our pets. They are so gentle and sweet to our animals, while being communicative and approachable to owners. Steveston Veterinary Hospital has been there for us in emergencies too and are quick to slot our dogs in when we are in a pinch. Dr. Galloway has followed up personally to check in after the fact too and make sure the pups are doing OK. It's nice to know we have the support and dedication of all of the professionals at Steveston Vet. Even after moving to East Van it is still worth the trip for the service they provide!

Review for Dr. GallowayWe recently lost the light of our life our cat Buddy to congestive heart failure. While the process was painful the compassionate and attentive care he received from Dr. Galloway and all the staff at Steveston Veterinary Hospital made it more tolerable. We only had Buddy in our lives for 5 years after he moved in off the streets, during this time Dr. Galloway was kind and compassionate with him and his humans throughout his veterinary care needs. From routine check-ups, to later, in Buddy’s life when he needed immediate intervention, Dr. Galloway was open, honest, approachable. She went out of her way to make herself available to answer questions and provide her expertise as needed—which during times of distress for Buddy and his humans, was greatly appreciated.As was typical for many cats, Buddy was very afraid of car rides and visits to the vet/new places, even though Dr. Galloway and her team were always gentle and thorough with his examinations, he just hated riding in the car to foreign places. When Buddy and us needed it most we were able to prearrange house calls with Dr. Galloway which helped to mitigate Buddy’s stress levels significantly. We are so thankful Dr. Galloway was able to provide Buddy with this option as he was so much more comfortable at home in his domain.Dr. Galloway provided compassionate care to our sweet Buddy, all the way to his last moments on earth —thoroughly and sensitively explaining what to expect which set our minds and hearts at ease. Dr. Galloway was supportive all the way to the end and for this, we are eternally grateful. Thank you, Dr. Galloway (and team), for all you have done for our family. Buddy is smiling upon you from the other side of the Rainbow Bridge.

I’ve been a client for approx 9 years. They have always provided the utmost care for my dog, cat and a few fosters that I’ve had over the years. I recently had an emergency with my dog and they were able to take care of my dog on their lunch break! Very much appreciated.I highly recommend themThanks so much for everything Dr Millar and crew

Highly recommend them. We consider ourselves very blessed to have them as our vet. Everyone is friendly and professional, they all genuinely care for your pets, the place is clean and bright and the prices are very reasonable.We see Dr Bonnierre and she’s wonderful. I’m sure your pet is in good hands with any of the vets here though!Our doggy Lucy was rescued from Turkey and arrived with skin and ear infections. Everything healed entirely within 2 weeks and Dr Bonnierre called us a few days after our visit to checkup on Lucy and ask about how she reacted to the medicine and all. When we had our revisit, Dr Bonnierre was so happy and excited to see Lucy’s condition had improved drastically. I felt her genuine love and care for animals. Even though Lucy is very scared of going to new places, she was still smiling away at the clinic. The receptionists and nurses are wonderful people as well. 5 stars!

We got a pup again and I took him for his first visit with Dr. Millar.Dr Millar had been our previous dogs vet so I knew her. She is very knowledgeable, & kind and explains things thoroughly. She took care of his ear (mites) problem right away. (Thank you!)The front staff are courteous and friendly.Steveston Vet has a small town feel. You feel good going there & are assured your pet will be well cared for.
