What pet owners say
I signed up to this clinic because of the stellar reviews on Google but overall had a mixed experience. I visited twice in the short timespan of a week. The first time was for basic vaccinations and check ups on my two cats and everything was really good. The vet they have is incredibly articulate and very thorough with examining them both, as well as the staff were incredibly friendly. A few days later I returned with just one of my cats as he was incredibly unwell and the staff kindly offered me a same day appointment to bring him in, which I really appreciated, and again the vet was helpful and clearly knowledgeable about feline health. However, during the appointment I was quoted around $1700 for chest X-rays, which surprised me. Since then I have contacted several other local clinics and was quoted around $250 for the same procedure. I’m not sure whether this was a miscommunication, an estimate including additional procedures, or simply a difference in pricing, but the gap was large enough that it left me feeling uncertain. To be fair to the vet, he seemed genuinely helpful and attentive during the consultation, so it may simply have been a case where the exact pricing wasn’t known at the time. I do wish the clinic had double-checked the estimate before quoting it though. Overall the staff were pleasant and the vet himself seemed very competent. To be fair the price of vaccinations and consults to this point have been pretty fair, so I want to give the clinic a bit of grace that this may have been a misunderstanding. However the pricing experience has made me feel less confident about the clinic and because of this I will likely be switching to another practice. I hope this feedback is helpful because aside from this issue the clinic seemed caring and professional.

This is a wonderful centre. Our girl just passed and they were so kind and gentle throughout the whole thing, even giving us a beautiful signed card from all of them with their sympathies. They’ve always taken great care with our cats, and such great care of us in the worst time. I recommend them highly for their amazing care of your pets, they are always our preferred veterinarian. you can tell they really love the animals they meet. Thank you for being so lovely to us, during our difficult time as well

I viewed an eye matter for my dog as being potentially problematic and I’m very grateful Maple was able to be fitted in with little warning. Mike is great at diagnosis and recommended a helpful course of action. The staff are always welcoming.

Thank you for showing sympathy, writing a personalised card for me and my friend when our sweet void passed away unexpectedly. The toughest time, but the sweet little touches the team at AMC warmed our hearts. Thank you for looking after our lil love during this time. 100000/10 staff

A huge thank you to Mike and the team. They fit my cat in even though it was near closing time because she suddenly worsened. They were very understanding and compassionate and helped me say goodbye in the most peaceful way possible. So grateful for the care received, thanks again
