I have been coming to Whites Rd. Clinic for 20 yrs now and would not go anywhere else. Drs. Birch and Donovan are amazing and saw my first 2 goldens throughout their entire life. Their compassion and sympathy at the end made a very difficult time less scary. I have always said that although they are not the cheapest vets around, they certainly are not the most expensive and they are NOT test happy. The Drs. give you options when it comes to treating your pet but NEVER have I felt that they were upselling a service. Drs. Birch and Donovan are very aware not everyone can afford to spend $$$ and would never think less of anyone for opting not to do something. What people forget is that it is expensive to run a clinic and with our health care system, people have no idea what medical care costs.

I took my cat to them because her tummy seemed to be larger than normal and she was losing weight. They charged me $350 to do blood test and told me that she is completely healthy. A few months later her belly became too large and she looked very thin. I took her back to the clinic and this time the owner of the clinic told me that she must have a tumor and needs xray. I paid for the xray and they told me it was inconclusive. The next step was ultrasound and draining fluid from her belly. They charged me another $600 and told me that it is cancer. When I had to take her to be euthanized, he suggested to have an injection to numb the area for the cost of anther $180. The injection made my cat more agitated and he even did not wait for the injection to work. He gave her he final injection and it only took 10 sec before her heart stopped. He knew that The final injection would be very quick but still wanted to drain money from a heartbroken pet owner. They are only AFTER YOUR MONEY.

I personally felt the front and assisting nurse staff were not that friendly. Some people need an attitude adjustment. I can tell the dr's are well educated so I can appreciate what they have to say about my pet. The place is spotless, whomever cleans does a great job. Very pricey however.

I trust Dr. Donovan with my pet's life - he's simply a trustworthy veterinarian and really knows his stuff. Not to jump on the bandwagon, but yes, the front staff are terrible. They don't even look up from their computer when I get there and just seem to want to rush you in and out. I completely understand that I'm just one of many clients, but I'm also a paying client who's bringing their animal. I think I deserve a little eye contact or a 'How are you doing'. If it weren't for the fantastic vets here, I'd take my business elsewhere.

The vets are amazing - they really know their stuff and their prices are reasonable. However, their front staff and some of the technicians are absolutely awful. Aren't receptionists supposed to have people skills???? I go for the vets, NOT the support staff.

Dr. Birch is great for a no nonsense western medicine take on stuff. If you don't want to get stuck with hocus pocus herbals and you just want someone to look at your pet, tell it like it is, and hook you up with the real medication your pet may need, then this clinic is great. We personally also maintain a relationship with a more holistic vet for our pets' routine needs, such as vaccine titres, raw diet support, etc.

Bait and switch tactics. Call for a quote and while your animal is in their care they call back and say oops, we meant another $500 on your bill. Very unscrupulous owners. Profit outweighs your pets needs at this place. The last 3 visits cost more than we were quoted.
