I’ve been going to Western Veterinary ever since both of my girl cats were desexed, and I honestly wouldn’t want to go anywhere else. Dr Singh and his team are always professional, knowledgeable, and genuinely focused on what’s best for the animals in their care. They’re incredibly accommodating and have always managed to fit me in on the same day when needed, which I really appreciate. Today they were even able to see us earlier than expected and provided treatment and medication promptly. The whole team is straightforward, efficient, and very reasonably priced. They act quickly, know how to identify the issue, and explain everything clearly. I trust them completely. Both of my cats have needed care for different issues over the years, and because they were seen and treated quickly, it thankfully never had to result in surgery. I’m so grateful for the care they’ve given my cats over the years and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy and experienced vet. Thank you so much for your service Western Veterinary!

Only this vet had appointment immediately on a Saturday was the first clue. Did not even check my friend's cavoodle. She had to go for a second opinion after which the dog had to be admitted for a neck injury, Dr. Singh have him antibiotic that he did not even need. $260 down the drain. Choose wisely for your pets.

The vets here are amazing! I called thinking they were the emergency clinic (had previously been to one which goes by a similar name) as my golden retriever had eaten a Karaka berry. Despite not having us in their system, they (female vet and veterinary nurse) were lovely and managed to get the Karaka berry (and everything else) out. Would highly recommend. Thank you so much! Charlie says thanks too!

I have been bringing my cat here for the last 10 or so years. Dr Singh and his daughter are excellent vets. My nervous cat is putty in their hands. Can't thank them enough for all the care they always show. Highly recommend
