     10/27/20   1     3     4     3   I went to the vet because my cat had suddenly become very picky and was refusing to eat many of her foods even when I switched variety. I went to the vet (the young female vet) for them to tell me she's having gastrointestinal problems/may be allergic to her food, and so prescribed me some hypoallergenic food. I came home to feeding her this, and have her still reject it, and so I did a google search on what it could possibly be and the first thing that came up was teeth problems. I then had to call the vet and asked them to check her teeth, something that should have been done immediately knowing that she was suddenly refusing to eat her food. I had a different vet this time (the older male vet), who checked her teeth, then proceeded to ask ME ,"so it's gingivitis right?". When I asked for treatment options, he then proceeded to tell me to GOOGLE the possible alleviations and treatment results?? Overall, would not recommend. RID: 69615

 2/2/14   5     5     5     5   The staff here are absolutely amazing. Dr. Dwahliwal is concise, honest and above and beyond friendly with your pet. I cannot emphasize enough the amount of positive energy that comes from the staff. The vet techs here are wonderful and helpful people. I would not feel my pup could be in the best hands unless it was with them. Highly recommended. RID: 49607

 12/3/13   4     5     4     5   We have always found Dr. Dhaliwal and the staff, especially Niki to be compassionate, knowlegeable and helpful. We recently had to have our pet put down and they were more than caring. Thank you! RID: 48561
     12/20/12   4     3     5     5   Dr.Dhaliwal is a very kind and thorough vet.He will not suggest things you do not need. I was not as happy with Dr.Khan. RID: 39168
Click to report rating    6/10/12   5     5     5     5   Dr.Dhaliwal is a very good vet. We'd been advised by others to have our little dog's ACL repaired and waited a while to book. When Dr. Dhaliwal examined and xrayed our pet it was apparent to him that the operation would not help her condition. So he called us to advise the surgery be cancelled, and that other options be explored. He explained things very clearly, sent us the X-rays so we could have them for our files. His staff was super warm, caring and friendly as well. The clinic is immaculate. We are very impressed by the service we got at this vet. I highly recommend Dr.Dhaliwal. He's caring competent professional and very knowledgable. He went out of his way to sent our dogs X-ray to another vet for a second opinion on what could be done to help our pooch, but also explained that this other option would be much more invasive. Bully Buddies recommended this vet to us and we are very grateful for the referral. RID: 34880
Click to report rating    11/6/11   5     5     5     5   My little guy(kitty)has been to Dr.Dhaliwal a couple of times now.I have to say our experience BOTH times were top rate! Dr.Dhaliwal is clearly everything a Doctor should be.He put a very distressed pet and owner at ease immediately with his obvious sincerity and compassion.It was through word of mouth that I came to know of him.He truly has lived up to his VERY good reputation.He asks in advance for a deposit.When I went to take my kitty home I had forgotten that I had done this and the receptionist didn't know either,we were getting into our car to leave and Dr.Dhaliwal came rushing out and called us to come back,to reimburse us for over payment.SO he is on top of everything else, also HONEST.He will be our Doctor for as long as we have pets!

 9/26/11   5     5     5     5   I took my cat here as she was having problems with her eye, the doctor did a eye test and took me that she had a ulcer, the last vet i went to don't do anything. i am so happy to have found this vet. also the person at the front desk was very helpful too he helped me clean her up when she had a accient, i would recommend this vet to anyone RID: 27916
Click to report rating    4/9/11   4     5     5     5   In all honesty I don't like all the front desk ppl but Nikkei is an amazing women and a lot of help ever time iv called or shown up she take my Edward whos a cat in right away, she explains things to me and is more them helpful unlike the other desk ppl that work there they make me feel like I'm a bad mom to my kitty, its aways clean and my cat loves going in to see Dr. Dhaliwal he's very kind sweet and loving to my cat and he's kind to me as well he explains things all the way through weather its on the phone or face to face, I have trouble trusting vets but he's the only one iv ever been happy to leave my pets with without me there, I had my cats teeth cleaned I was told by a different vet that it could cost $700-$1000 because Edward needed teeth taken out Dr.Dhaliwal did it all for $250 with out taken any of my 12 year old cats teeth out I don't have a lot of money I never have but Dhaliwals prices are doable and half the time when I bring my cat in he doesn't charge for the visit RID: 24246
Click to report rating    10/6/10   1     2     2     3   I totally agree with the last comment. Dr.Dhaliwal is an amazing doctor and very good at what he does. But the staff, they need to have better attitudes for sure. The older receptionist in the mornings, is very rude and makes me not want to go there. Dr.Dhaliwal does deserve better staff. I would go there more if the staff changed. RID: 20102
Click to report rating    9/10/10   1     2     3     4   I have been here a few times and the service I get is so different each time. I haven't been back for awhile, since I switched to a more consistent veterinarian. I have to say that Dr. Dhaliwal is amazing. There is no other vet in the district that is as attentive as he is. If you're really unlucky, you will get the other doctor, who seems to only be out to get your money, ordering tests that aren't necessary and suggesting treatments that would cost you much more. The staff during the evening is pleasant enough but not during the morning. The older receptionist in the morning is quite rude at times and demeaning. Overall, its a good deal of a veterinary clinic and Dr. Dhaliwal really deserves a better clinic with better staff. RID: 19682
Click to report rating    8/16/09   5     4     5     5   They fixed my cat after an abcess burst on his head, he was pretty sick. They were very friendly, fast, and did and excellent job on my 18 year old cat. Didn't overcharge me. Very satisified, saved my cat. RID: 13866
Click to report rating    8/4/09   5     5     5     5   I had my dog spayed there and found very friendy and puntual staff. Dr. Dhaliwal was very kund to my dog RID: 13720
Click to report rating    5/11/09   5     4     5     5   Dr.Dhaliwal is the kindest vet Ive ever encountered, and is really in it for the animals. Although he may be difficult to understand, he always takes phonecalls and returns phonecalls when wanted. RID: 12763
Click to report rating    1/14/09   3     4     5     5   I've had a few pups fixed at this clinic and was very pleased with the service. The vet was great to me and one of the staff was wonderful, can't remember her name. RID: 11239
Click to report rating    1/11/09   2     2     3     3   I had a horrible experience at this vet. I took my puppy in to be neutered. After he awoke from surgery, he was biting thecrate and ended up completely pulling his k-9 tooth right out by the root. Now tell me who was monitoring him while he was waking. I was and still am not impressed by this. I did not recieve an apology or any sort of compinsation. Now my odg has one of his major teeth missing. I would not recommend this vet,and will never bring any of my animals there again RID: 11161
Click to report rating    6/26/07   3     3     4     4   Just had my dog spayed and tatooed here. I would say the service was sufficient. Not overly good or bad, nothing outstanding. RID: 4871
