 1/28/17   5     5     5     5   I came here with my cat cocoa for an ear infection. Staff where great dr.yang was polite and knowledgeable on what he had to do. We did an ear smear and then found it was bacteria he gave me the proper medication to bring home and now my cat is a lot better. They even called me the day after to see how cocoa was going RID: 62486

 6/24/16   5     5     5     5   Absolutely love Dr.Yang! Have brought all 4 of my huskies, toy pomeranium, and cats in since the clinic opened. My animals absolutely love him, and he is very patient. I have taken my animals in over 20 times throughout the years and he is very accommodating, way cheaper than other emergency vets. He Spent 7 hours straight pulling 2000 quills out of my husky, with no breaks! Allowing us to be right beside our dogs side throughout the ordeal. He has saved my pets life and I'm grateful to have a vet that sometimes doesn't even charge for extra xrays he may have had to taken. Best vet I've ever had, explains things thoroughly and is calm when I've been panicked. He works very hard and everytime I've been there, customers are praising his clinic and services. There will be good and bad everywhere no matter where you go. Pets are honest and if they show signs of fear, that's more truth than anything! Mine hug and kiss Dr. YANG every time..that's enough of for me ..as a true animal lover RID: 60941

 6/29/14   1     1     1     1   Very bad experience. I was extremely overcharged for the little bit of care that my cat received. My cat needed an abscess on his ear lanced and I was shocked when they asked me if I wanted to pay extra for intravenous fluids to keep my cat hydrated and in a stable condition while he was sedated. Really? I thought that keeping the animal hydrated and in stable condition while sedated was routine. I am very very sorry that I came here. Sadly they are only interested in money here and not about the animals at all. RID: 52321

 3/29/14   1     2     1     1   This vet was real close to my house so I brang my pit bull in because one of his ears were infected and for a check up. When I met Dr.Yang he basically asked me alot of things i wanted him to tell me about my dog health wise. He tried to teach me how to clean n treat my dogs ear with antiseptic and i could barely understand a word he said. I was expecting him to atlease clean my dogs ear the first time to show me an example but he did not. The visit costed me 700 with a bottle of antiseptic n medicine. I got home and felt like i went there for nothing but over priced ear solutions i had to go on youtube to learn how to properly wash a dogs ear and that even taught me better than dr.yang did over all i regret going there wasting my money when i barely even treated my dogs ear and waiting til it healed by it self. I only been to two vet clinics and i hope my next trips to other vets are nothing like Dr.Yang RID: 50751

 1/18/14   1     1     1     1   Horrible Clinic. Dr yang is the most arrogant person I have ever had the displeasure of meeting. He only cares about money, couldn't care less about your animal. Also zero communication skills which likely has to do with his lack of compassion. Do yourself, and your pet, a favour and go to EVEC downtown if you have an emergency or get your pet transferred elsewhere RID: 49325

 1/11/14   5     5     4     5   I don't understand the all the complaints. I used to be a vet assistant when I was younger and I've always found this clinic was very reasonable. I've been bringing my dog here since they opened. My little dog is terrified of the vet and both vets have always been very caring to her. A shame Dr.Lecky has moved though, both great vets! RID: 49178
     9/28/13   1     1     1     1   Dr. Yang is a horrible vet! Just concerned about money. Does NOT care about my animal's well being at all. Dr. Lecky however is amazing. Great vet, wrong location. Will NOT return to this clinic. Horribly understaffed and could not understand Dr. Yang at all. I will follow Dr. Lecky to where ever her career takes her. I doubt this clinic will last long with it's poor service and rude staff. The staff didn't seem to enjoy working there or even want to work there. Horrible negative environment. Waste of my time and money. Will not recommend to anyone! Take the extra drive to the downtown emerg. Dr. Yang nearly killed my cat. SO MAD! RID: 47267
     9/25/13   1     3     1     1   No good staff and lack of staff. Always put on hold for 5-10 minutes EVERY time I call. When I go to buy food, no one at the desk....have to ring a bell for service. Clinic is nice though, but service is inefficient. RID: 47204
Click to report rating    8/25/13   1     4     1     1   I myself had to barge into the X-ray room and take my cat they hurt him worse than his original injury . And that was after giving him enough ketamine to drop a person it was 6-7 hrs before my cat (that jumps out the second story window ) could start walking again . ... Then today my friends dog was clearly having extreme difficulty breathing was taken there and sent home no treatment . Better off downtown emergency for sure . RID: 46524
Click to report rating    8/5/13   1     3     3     1   I only went to this vet clinic because of its location (a 5 minute drive away from my house). I brought my dog in for a check-up and vaccines. I told the doctor that I noticed my dog licking his behind sometimes so the doctor said he would check my dog's anal glands. I agreed and asked if my dog's nails could be trimmed too. After looking at my invoice, I noticed that there were additional fees added on for cleaning the anal glands and the nail trim, but these fees weren't mentioned to me during the exam. All of these treatments were included in the exam at the clinic where I usually take my dog. I think I'll bring my dog back to his original clinic even though it is a half hour drive away. The vet and staff at that clinic are nicer and happier than the ones at Hollick Kenyon anyway. RID: 46090
Click to report rating    7/12/13   2     3     2     1   Brought in my dog for what I was told would be minor surgery. est. was $600.00 When my wife went to pick her up it was over $3,000.00. No call to let us know. Just pay or we will hold your dog at $50 a day plus boarding until paid. I had the tumer sent in for testing. The results accourting to Dr. Yang were not cancer. Good news, Wrong. Had to take my dog back for check up visits each one had a cost. After dog was given clean bill of health. Total bill amost $7000.00. Two months later I have found out my dog has cancer. Dr.Yang did not take all of the cancer out with his sergey. Now I have to put my dog down. RID: 44273
     6/6/13   1     1     1     1   Brought my dog here as it was the closest clinic. Big mistake! Was charged $680 to trim down a broken toenail. Dr.Yang was rude and cold with my Dog. Not for a second did I believe he genuinely cared for my dog. This is a classic example of a Vet who only cares about money, and most likely doesn't even like animals! Front end staff is also rude. Clinic is very nice and new when you walk in, but behind closed doors it is dirty and run down. STAY AWAY! RID: 42967
Click to report rating    4/25/13   3     5     4     2   I was really disappointed with the clinic as it's location couldn't be better for me. The vet was disconnected and I felt dismissed during the appointment. The facility proper is quite nice and the appnt ran on time. I had to pick my jaw off the floor when I was handed the bill as I have never paid that much for a basic checkup. RID: 42040
Click to report rating    4/22/13   2     4     4     2   Dr. Yang was hard to understand. Went in for professional opinion and left completely confused. We asked him what are the steps we need to take from here, but his answers were totally different from the previous. It was the quickest close to $300 we've ever spend. Didn't feel comfortable leaving our dog with him. We felt Dr. Yang is unprofessional, adds on services only to charge you more, his communication skills are zero. Please save yourself a trip. Go to another clinic! RID: 41959
Click to report rating    4/16/13   5     5     5     5   I had an emergency on Sunday with my Pug.He had multiple puncture wounds. The clinic is beautiful and the staff, including the Veterinarians were all wonderful. They were very compassionate regarding the situation and had taken very good care of my Pug. He had to undergo surgery and I had felt considering all the work they had to do on my pet, I think that the price was very reasonable considering I am employed at a different Veterinary Clinic. RID: 41794
Click to report rating    4/15/13   1     1     1     1   Have dealt with multiple vets at this clinic. The owner/main vet is arrogant, rude and cares only about money. Rates continuously go up after each visit with obscure charges showing up on my bill. Refused to provide my dog with an International Health Certificate, citing it was unnecessary for entry to the US despite being told the exact opposite from another vet at the same clinic (on a previous visit) as well as WestJet staff. Long wait times, make you feel as though you're wasting their time and just an unpleasant demeanor overall. Save yourself the trouble and avoid. RID: 41774
