I was a long time client of these people. The vet was liked by my animals. I brought my little one in for a gland extraction. Upon leaving I asked about getting worm medication for all my animals (6). I had 2 surgeries this summer and didn’t keep up the yard and it was a precautionary treatment, just being a responsible pet owner. The regular woman there said that this medication now requires a prescription. I pointed to her that she had sold that very medication to me, she went through some files and confirmed that this was so. I told her I would just go elsewhere and was encouraged to do so. What kind of service is that? She, not a vet, denied my pets very basic care. Shocked and disappointed I left.NEVER PAY A VET AGAIN FOR WORM MEDS!!! GET THEM ON AMAZON.

Completely unprofessional
Dr. Johar puts his ego/pride ahead of the welfare of sick animals.
He refused to perform a scheduled tooth extraction surgery of a broken tooth on my dog, despite my dog clearly being in pain, after I asked to see whether x-rays taken during a previous dental exam at his clinic, showed any issue with said tooth. Regardless of whether he liked it or not, a good vet would swallow his pride and show the x-rays, since I paid for them and it's my right to see them.
It's clear now why this clinic is always empty of paitients when I visited in the past.
Avoid at all costs!

Haney Animal Hospital took my sick cat in when my pet Hospital couldn’t take the time. Dr. Johal saved Rocky’s life. That was many years ago and I still go there today with both my cats. I know their kindness has been taking advantage of over the years but they still remain caring and patient. I only wish that Starbuck customers would not park close to the Hospital’s door.

I have used this veterinary clinic for the last seven years at least. I have nothing but good to say about Dr. Johal and his associates. Warm and receptive and they work with you to achieve the best results for your dogs and cats. They do not overcharge automatically and give you the best options available to deal with your pet and what needs to be done and include you in the decision making experience. They respect your wishes and treat accordingly. This is the thinking person's veterinary clinic.

I went to this clinic once when my regular was closed and it was a HUGE MISTAKE. The doctor was very rude and dismissive. He wouldn't discuss options for treatment and insisted that we immediately do surgery without telling me what the problem was- language barrier?? My cat ended up okay, he had a small abscess, but the bill was huge. I went back to my regular vet right after and was told that, not only would they have charged less, but the problem wasn't as serious as the dr at Haney made it sound. Their receptionist was nice but that's about all this place has going for it!!

My dog was attacked by a raccoon in the evening. I was freaking out as my poor baby was bleeding and my regular vet was closed. I called Haney Animal Hospital and was so glad that they were able to squeeze me in on such a short notice. It was my first time there. The Doctor and the staff handled him with such love and kindness. It didnt take too long for him to fully recover from the injury. The staff is so caring and compassionate. I had such a wonderful experience. Can't thank them enough for their exceptional service and saving my baby. I am very happy and I would highly recommend this facility to everybody.

I have wonderful experience about this hospital and I am very happy that my little peanut was saved by Dr. Johar and his staff. my little peanut was attacked by a racoon and badly bitten and bruised. Haney Animal Hospital was the only hospital open at that time and they told me to bring peanut immediately and took good care of him. the wounds were cleaned and stitched and peanut had to stay in hospital overnight to be supervised and keep painless. next day when I picked up peanut he was very happy and bouncing all over. wonder if Dr. Johar is having some magic in his hands. highly recommended.

New to M.R our 10 yr pitbull had 2 skin tumors,1 was big&wouldn't stop bleeding.Called Haney Animal Hospital the lady I talked to on the phone said that I can bring him in right away.I did & seen Dr. Johar advised to do surgery,went ahead with blood tests to see if he was ok for the surgery.Got the results the next day & he was ok,I read all the reviews on this website for every vet in Maple Ridge,all of them had 1 or more bad reviews.It's not a good feeling to have when your loving family member has to have surgery.Our pitbull doesn't like alot of people but he had no problem with Dr Johar giving him a blood test or his assistant picking him up to put him on the table,these 2 things & the receptionist was caring & understanding.(THEY SAY DOGS KNOW GOOD PEOPLE)I went with what my dogs behavior was & What I thought.This is why I went with HANEY ANIMAL HOSPITAL.VERY HAPPY TO SAY SURGERY Was a success.I have the most UPMOST TRUST in Dr JOHAR & Assistant& receptionist what an AwesomeTeamA+

I had a horrible experience here with my 10 week old puppy. She had a irritated ear, and he proceeded to say that I was, more or less, an awful dog owner. He didn't do a swab to check what was wrong and jumped to conclusions about what was irritating her ear. We spent almost $200 on different ear drops and food to help her heal and it didn't work. We switched to Dewdney Animal hospital, they took a swab, were VERY kind, and found out that it was just a common yeast and it went away after the PROPER treatment. I will NEVER go to back to Haney Animal Hospital. Dr. Johal is rude, and he jumped to conclusions about the prognosis of my puppy's ear and about my personality. I wish I had said something to him at the time. "If I didn't care, or if I was a 'bad' dog owner, then I wouldn't have been at the vet to ensure my dog's health".

My cat was sick, so i went to Dr. Johar, must say he is an excellent doctor with full of knowledge. I visited other doctors but they could not diagnose the problem. Dr. Johar is very caring and the staff is very nice there. I recommend this hospital to everybody for best service and reasonable price. I am very happy, my cat is eating drinking normally, doing great. Thanks again Dr. Johar.

We have been dealing with Dr. Johar for the last 4 years. We drive over 30 minutes to the vet (we used to live closer) because their prices are reasonable and they take wonderful care of my two dogs. They have very accomodating hours, and wonderful staff. I do however insist on seeing Dr. Johar. I've seen two other vets there, and they haven't been as good at diagnosing problems.

I have been dealing with Dr.Johar for the past 9 years. He is experienced,smart and honest. He always looks for the benefit of the animal and the owner. He always tries to save an owner money where he can and avoid any uncessary treatment. His prices as compared to other veterinarians are very reasonable. For example I compared his Advantage product prices to many other clinics and they are a significant amount cheaper. Since I go there so frequently with my animals I have seen the care and honesty he provides for others clients as well. I recommend Dr.Johar his facility and staff members to everyone.

I have been going to this vet for the last 9 years. All my visits had been with Dr. Johar, up until this last year. I have never had an issue with Dr. Johar, unfortunately I can't say the same for his last two associate vets that have been there. Dr. Sharma was a horrible vet, aggressive and rude. The other one. Is questionable. The standards of practice from when it first opened is not there today. So sad to see this office average the rating of "not a vet office to recommend!

Had a horrible experience here with the vet. My dog had suffered some type of injury that left him yelping every so often. My girlfriend and I brought him in to get a check up to see what was wrong. When he checked my dog out for a good 15 min he couldn't find out what was wrong and when he bent down i saw him deliberately pinched his back leg to make my dog yelp. He then demanded (yes demanded) us bring him in first thing in the morning for an xray. When I told him i couldn't due to the fact we both start work before they are even open he told me to take the day off and bring him in, and told me that it'd cost $300 but if he needs more x-rays he's do it then charge us later. I called a vet in pitt meadows and they said it was a muscle strain and that he'd be fine in a week, which was true. Staff however, were really nice and caring. Watch out for this vet he is a sneaky.

Made an appt with this vet for my 15 week old rabbit. I gave her name and age to the female on the phone and she booked it for Aug 2. They did not require an initial exam prior to the surgery which I found peculiar, since she had never been seen there. I went to drop her off and was sent home because she was too young, even though I gave her age on the phone. On Aug 23 I called because Precious was bleeding from her vulva or anus and I thought she may be in heat or possibly in danger. The woman on the phone stated it was normal and she was in heat. I asked her how long the bleeding would last and she said "It depends". I trusted her word, since she's a professional. I found out Aug 26 from another vet that she could possibly have parasites and that female rabbits do not exhibit heat. My poor rabbit has been bleeding and suffering for a week! This vet has no business practicing on rabbits. Filed a complaint with the CVBC.

this animal hospital is very reasonable there prices are fair. The staff here are nice and try to accommodate you the best they can the doctors there caring and will do there best to do what they can for animals i would suggest this hospital to anyone. My dog that's just a few pounds decided to eat something that made her sick i thought for sure she was not going to make it, they walked me through everything and made me understand to the best they could. within a few hours i got an update she was doing a bit better by the end of the next day she was all back to normal and i had my dog back thanks Haney animal hospital and there helpful staff

1 is over-rating this vet and his clinic. We had a horrific experience with him and have filed a complaint with the BCVMA. It is taking longer than anticipated but we are positive that we will get results. We plan to dedicate our time to protest outside his clinic after our complaint has been dealt with, in the memory of our deceased dog. He should be shut down - DO NOT GO TO THIS VET!!!

EXCELLENT STAFF AND VETERINARIAN. Dr. johar saved my dog. My 8 years old retriever dog suddenly got sick and we had lost all hopes of its survival and Our regular vet was not available that time. We took him to Dr Johar.Dr Johar after quick radiographs and physical examination diagnosed a splenic mass and explained in details all the pros and cons. He was so compassionate, so caring about our dog, did remove the bleeding spleen. excellent surgery!!! only in 3 days the dog was almost like a new puppy, 6 months now and still doing like a puppy. Above all Dr Johar charged us so less which is unbelievable. Even for minor surgeries we used to spend lots of money on our dog with our regular veterinarian. Now I will never go back to my regular vet. Thanks Dr Johar.

We have taken our dog here for years. Dr. Johar is caring and not overpriced. He did a great job on our dog's knee surgery. I would recommend him. They have excellent hours, open until 10 on weekdays and 8 on weekends.

The staff argued with me over what breed my dog was. They assued because she had a tail she couldn't be a boxer. Duh, boxers are born with tails. I thought the pricing was good until I went in and then found that the price I was given was only a base price and when we added what they called extras on the price was the same as everyone else. The only special rate was if I didn't want my dog to have pain meds etc. Honestly I'd try a different vet.
