Governors Road Animal Hospital

You will not find a better vet in the area, this team took every measure possible to ensure the right decisions were made for both myself and my pet, and even in his passing down the line they went above and beyond to ensure peace and respect for my beloved pet. I can’t say enough how much I appreciate this team and their work, you can’t do better them.

One of the best clinics I've had to visit with my Bengal and miniature Schnauzer. Extremely friendly staff all around from the reception, techs to doctors. They take the time to listen, provide you with all the steps they will take with your beloved pet. Cleanliness of the clinic is also top notch.

i took my netherland dwarf bunny (elora) here to get her spayed. after calling and taking her to 2 other vets and getting quotes, Govenors Road Animal Hospital was by far the most reasonable. after taking her to her pre-surgery visit i felt really happy and safe with Dr. Farooq. everyone at this vet was very friendly, helpful and informative! i was very nervous being that she is only 2 pounds but they reassured me and even called me to let me know when she was out of surgery and that it went well. i was recommend to go here by a friend who also has rabbits and i am happy i did.elora and her shaved belly from surgery!

Our pups Gambit and Ashe are treated so well here. Both vets are kind and compassionate and even did a house call to check on Ashe once.When it was time to put our oldest dog down (Phoenix) they showed us such compassion and understanding. It was so difficult but they made the experience better just by how they interacted with us before and after. Highly recommended this clinic and their team!

I was in a desperate situation and needed insulin for my cat and forgot to get it from my normal vet. I called these guys and they were more then happy to help and provided me a bottle so my guy wouldn't miss his medicine. I don't even bring my animals here and they helped when a lot of people said no. So thank you from myself and Toast.

I should have left a review a long time ago. My very frightened feral pup was spayed at the clinic in May 2022. . She’s from as far North in Ontario as you can go, not used to humans. Today she returned a year later for vaccines and blood work. She was still frightened but the staff were so kind, she left the clinic a happy dog. Also, our old husky had reached the end of his earthly life last November. He gently left us with the help of Dr Dogar. We brought him home to lay to rest, no pressure to do otherwise. Dr Dogar is a genuinely kind man and veterinarian. The staff are patient and understanding with all care needs. Cost is no more than other clinics. I’m lucky to have them nearby.

Another amazing visit to our favourite veterinarian team! Our boys look forward to seeing them. We do too. Very compassionate, and highly skilled. Quite likely the best we’ve seen in this field.

Our family brought our dog into the clinic as they were the only vet open and available to take our Mysty and help her at the end of her life. They were kind and walked us through each step of the process and gave us time to be with her before proceeding. And most importantly they allowed me to stay with her until the very end and hold her paw for the whole process. Unfortunately, the whole time they referred to her by Mitzy. It bothered me but I told myself it’s no big deal. Then when I left the room to give my kids a moment with her I noticed it spelled wrong on the exam room door, so I mentioned it to the lady at the desk and she was very apologetic. However, just over two weeks later we received a card in the mail signed by the full staff and over and over they wrote Mitzy… to me this is such a small thing they could have done to make me feel they cared for my pet and instead it made me cry and hurt just a bit more, not that much can hurt more then losing your beloved fur baby. Had I not said something there it would have been on me but I did and that is why I don’t understand how such a small issue was not remedied, especially when the staff I told most likely signed the card. :(

More than just a veterinarian office!The veterinarians, technicians, and office staff they truly cared about my baby. Their vets did amazing diagnosing and doing surgery for his kidney stone they were more confident and experienced than any vet I’d ever went to for exotics. My Guinea pig recovered but after his stones reoccurred we had to make the had choice to say goodbye, the care and compassion from the whole staff was the only thing that helped they were with him until the end with so much love.Cost for exotics is always expensive but this office had the best prices for general visit, emergency visit and they charged an extremely fair amount for his surgery as well as euthanasia and aftercare.They made this hard experience much easier, after loosing one of my babies last year with an inexperienced vet I was coming into this a fearful, apprehensive mom. But they answered many calls, emails, questions, vets very clearly explained everything and asked me to call with updated after his surgery, had us bring him in for a free follow up visit and our visits never felt rushed.I can’t thank this team enough.Truly people who care about animals, have experience and patience.

I've been bringing my two cats, Sugar and Holly, to Governors Road Animal Hospital since I moved into my apartment April 2021. I've always been thoroughly impressed by the level of care and thoroughness the two doctors, and all the staff, exhibit. I really like that the vets explain what they're doing during a full-body examination, speak out loud about what they notice, and thoroughly explain every single test result.Unfortunately, one week ago, my one cat Sugar had a seizure unexpectedly, and I immediately rushed her to the vet. They immediately took her in to start running diagnostics and prepare incase she had another seizure. Every single tech was so reassuring and kind. When her diagnostic results came back, the vet explained everything to me, and told me what else we could do and let me know the costs upfront and what next steps could be.Ultimately, I decided to put her down. It was the hardest decision I've ever had to make in my entire life, and I was wishing the vet would have brought it up first as an option, so I wouldn't have to. But I'm glad they didn't - I'm glad it was entirely my own decision to put her down and not influenced by anyone else. When I did mention it, I was meant with nothing but kindness and reassurance that I had made the best decision possible for me and Sugar. They let me have a lot of time with her and were so patient with me. The entire staff showed so much empathy and gentleness towards me, even when I came back a few days later to pick up her remains and urn. They took her paw print for me, as well.Even in this incredibly difficult time, I am so grateful for the expertise, compassion, and warmth shown to me by every single person I've encountered at Governors Road Animal Hospital. Thank you, for making the hardest day of my life a little bit easier.
