Dr. Bala is wonderful. He is patient, attentive and honest. I've taken two of my dogs to him over the years and he and his staff have been great. He takes the time to help you understand your pet's health and to discuss options. He makes fair and realistic recommendations and takes time after hours when needed to see your pet or follow up by phone. Very happy to have found a vet clinic that respects pets and their concerned owners.

Dr. Bala is an exceptional veterinarian. He is very knowledgeable and compassionate and will go the extra mile to make sure that your pet is well taken care of. He always makes time to see my pets- even if it means having to work past clinic hours. He does not push unnecessary laboratory tests or procedures and his estimates are always accurate. I would highly recommend this clinic!

Excellent small practice. No frills but great clinical expertise. Excellent rapport with pet owners. I have had my many cats treated here for years -I have NEVER been disappointed. Dr. Bala explains what you need to know. You are given the options, the cost, the alternatives and you are the one who decides. Never pushed into unnecessary procedures like in other clinics. The prices: very reasonable. I am a very satisfied owner and for this reason I decided to post my rating in deference to a dedicated and humane veterinarian.

My dog got hit by a car, and I had to take it to the closet vet clinic (not my own, which told me they did not have room). The doctor saw my dog and gave it pain medications. Luckily she was fine, but the vet saw her on urgent basis and did not charge me. On a moment of hysterics on my part the vet calmed me down and helped us in our moment of desparation.

I rescued a kitten with very bad URI who almost died that day. The staff admitted my kitten earlier than our appointment time as a emergency case. Dr. Bala was very patient and explained to us all the options, and he saved the kitten's life. The kitten had bloody diarrhea all over the inside of the carrier, and it was disgusting! The staff helped us to clean it up and sterilized it, and they cleaned up the kitten covered in poo. It's great to see the staff there who are so nice and patient, and who actually care so much about animals!

DR. BALA IS SOOOOO PATIENT AND SOOOOOO KIND AND TREATS AND CARES FOR ALL THE ANIMALS LIKE THEY WERE HIS.WHEN OUR DOG "CHASE" WAS DIAGNOSED AND ONLY HAD LESS THAN A DAY TO LIVE THE DR. STAYED 2 HOURS OVERTIME FOR OUR FAMILY TO SAY GOODBYE TO HIM. hE WAS EVEN UPSET ABOUT OUR DOG.I ONLY TRUST HIM AND HE IS EXTREMELY REASONABLE. I HAVE SEEN OTHER DR.S IN MY 30+ YEARS WITH PETS AND HE IS THE ABSOLUTE BEST! SINCERELY, DIANE WIEDERHOLD

The clinic is alright. Small size. Vet is okay, can use improvement. Displeased when you ask too many questions. Every year we come in for rabbies for our two dogs and every year, it's the same speech about neutering/spaying our pets. Almost sounds like a sales call. Prices are cheap but if you want better, don't expect it here.

Dr. Bala and his staff are amazing. I take both my cat and dog there and trust him 100%. His love for animals is genuine and he is honest. He does not recommend unnecessary tests or medications, so you know that you will not get ripped off.

They creamated my pet without my release and did not have any regard for my familys feelings or wishes. I would never go there as they are not a reliable hospital.

Don't go by the price ,remember you are dealing with life of your pet.This is the clinic which may do very basic stuff.With any complex cases they are lost.They are too busy with routine procedures which is good for a resident of OVC.I believe they don't know how to deal with serious cases and no time either.I won't take my pet anymore if she pulls through.

Dr.Bala is an amazing veterinary doctor.I refered quite a few neighbors and friends to him and everybody gives him high marks.He his very caring,passionate and dedicated.His calmness is amazing tool to memerize nervous pets so he can examine them.Besides he does a lot of voluntary work for rescue groups in Toronto,which I have found by fluke when my daughter was given his name by TCR.We are fostering a stray cat which needed all the vaccines and neutering.He is a honest humble man and graet with animals and people too.I met his partner-Dr.Day once and he made a positive impression on me as well.

Dr. Dayed is an excellent vetranarian with a tremendous experience in dealing with rescue animals (i.e., some of the most complex cases) . He was patient when listening to my concerns; astute in identifying my cat’s problem; pro-active in addressing it; as well as helpful during the insurance submission process.
Being an experiened pet owner I have paid substancially more for veterinary services elsewhere, but received signifigantly less in terms of diagnosis, treatment and follow-up. So, in short, I would happily and highly recommended Dr. Dayed’s Veterinary Hospital.

Dr Bala and his staff are great. It is not one of the fancy clinics in the neighbourhood, but the staff makes up for the environment. Very knowledgeable and caring -- it's obvious with how the pets interact with all of them. I know our puppy really likes Dr Bala and gets happy excited to see him (rather than getting sacred or anxious) All the staff have been great but an exceptionally caring employee is Michelle who called us to get a status update on our sick puppy. Well worth having a relationship with this veterinarian!!!

Excellent vet. Very responsive, tries to accomodate pickup times for animals that have been boarded there and has reasonable prices. Toronto Cat Rescue and Toronto Animal Services bring their animals to him.

I love Dr.Bala and his staff. When my puppy was sick,they were very attentive and they even called a couple of weeks later to check on him. I had been at another clinic before I went to Dr.Bala and they we're charging me double. I highly reccomend him to anyone

The Cloverdale Clinic is excellent. The Vet Dr.G.Bala takes his time & explains everything to you. The facility is extremely clean. The staff is friendly. His prices are excellent, 42 dollars exam fee. No pressure for anything. He also helps with the rescue I volunteer for.
