Quite Expensive but the quality of care is reflected in the cost! and I would rather pay up front and get exceptional care the first time around. I appreciate the highly knowledgeable and down to earth staff who always make me feel like my pets are their #1 priority. I also appreciate that I have never felt pressured by the doctors or staff, they help me make an educated decision for my pets well being

Staff is friendly, courteous and understanding. The hospital is absolutely gorgeous, well stocked and equipped and very clean. Occasionally running a little late, but i'm okay with that as my visits are always long and informative. They don't rush you out when you have questions. I've worked with all 3 vets for my dog and cat, and they all take the time to be thorough and make sure I know what's happening. Yes, a little more expensive, but you get what you pay for, and I believe they are the best. I constantly Recommend the Ellwood Team for their knowledge, friendliness, and willingness to work with you on a budget and finding the answers!

Dr. Ray and his team consistently provide exceptional care and concern for animals and people (the latter must be tough), communication (and a range of options for treatment)and follow-through. His support staff and two vet colleagues, Drs. Engle and Bruce, are always cheerful, attentive and willing to help no matter what the issue. We are lucky to have such a professional vet team in the Valley. I only wish that there were more categories in this rating format and an "outstanding" column. I travel quite a distance to their clinic and have followed Dr. Ray for many years. He has given several of my dogs a new lease on life and I will be forever grateful. This is an individual who goes above and beyond....

Awesome staff and veternarians! They know what is wrong when other vets don't. They are awesome! Helped my dog when he was really on the verge of dying - other vet had basically given up. Thanks Dr. Ray!

Dr. Ray saved my dogs life! After going to a very bad vet in Mission (the one at Lougheed Animal Hospital - nice man but needs a lot more training) and paying thousands in fees, we were directed to Ellwood Park Animal Hospital where Dr. Ray looked at my dog and diagnosed the problem in 30 seconds! Amazing! Best vet I have ever every been too! Take my advice - it may cost a little more but it is well worth the money and peace of mind to know that my dog is safe and pain free! I will never go anywhere else.

We had Dr. Engle examine our pet and although we found her very personable, it felt that she was trying to impress us with her veterinary knowledge. I found it difficult to follow the medical terminology that she used to explain our dogs condition. The follow up calls came the very next day and although they were appreciated, I had the distinct impression that they were pushing for additional tests to be done. Perhaps they need the extra cash to pay for the new offices. They are close to where we live, but I think we will be looking for another vet.

The vets and techs at Ellwood are great. They really care about the animals they treat. They listen to what you have to say and keep you well informed as to what they are doing. You get what you pay for here and they're worth every nickel.

Dr. Ray is an amazing doctor. Upon meeting him you'll know he's in it for the pet and not for the money. The staff are very educated and great to meet, and the facilities are top quality. I would highly recommend this Dr. to anyone who wants the best for their pet.

Dr Ray and all his staff are so pleasant to meet. He makes sure you are involved with your pet's health decision making, and always makes your options clear. You very seldom have to wait past your appointment time and if you do, it is because he has spent lots of time with an owner explaining the health issues they are dealing with. They schedule plenty of time with each patient, and occasionally you get in ahead of time. They are always trying to stay up to date with new technology that can assist with speed of diagnosis. Very highly recommended.
