Click to report rating    12/9/16   5     5     5     5   A big thank you to Dr. Potter, Dr. Rurak, Amanda, Erin and everyone at the clinic for saving Shasta. This is the best and the only animal clinic that you would want to take your pets to. The doctors and the team are very friendly and family oriented. My Shasta has visited the clinic twice for different issues. The second visit was bit of dramatic as I was prepared for the worst. Dr. Potter did not give up on my little Shasta. Both her and her team performed an experiment and saved my little furry friend. Shasta is recovering well and has back to her normal actives. i cannot express my gratitude enough for the wonderful job you have done. THANK YOU & XOXO (this is sent from Shasta :) RID: 62157
Click to report rating    8/30/16   5     5     5     5   Dr. Rurak and Dr. Ford performed surgery on our hamster's eyes to correct her eye lids that were causing infection. The entire staff at WBVC are so caring, and knowledgeable. Our hamster, Bubbi, is now happy and healthy, and we owe it all to Dr Ford and Dr. Rurak, along with the entire staff. RID: 61458
Click to report rating    10/13/13   5     5     5     5   Although we don't use this clinic exclusively, they have seen our rabbits on an emergency basis several times. The vets are experts in rabbits, and Dr. Ruark actually took the time to teach me how to do sub-q fluids for my rabbit. That ability has saved my rabbits more than once when they have gone into stasis on a Sunday evening. Also, both Dr. Ruark and Dr. Potter have generously donated their time to provide services at Vancouver Rabbit Rescue and Advocacy's annual Rabbit Festival, where people bring their rabbits in for vet checks and grooming. It's that kind of community outreach and involvement that makes for better pet owners! RID: 47606
     10/14/12   4     4     4     3   There are two words to describe this hospital brutal and unethical. My 10lb dog came here for having wood chips in his ear. The young Doc Sara is definitely not an angel. She used an long, sharp instrument poked into dog's ear canal. Her assistant used all her might and strength to hold the dog in place. The dog was groaning, screaming, biting, struggling in pain, tried to get away from her hold. Finally, Sara declared the object was too deep to lodge, asking me to sign a form to sedate the dog and promised to pay the bill. Total charges was $364.56. The dog was totally in shock, traumatized and depressed when he went home. He stood in front of our home head and tail down, frozen, motionless refused to walk. His bump was bothering him and in pain. I found the area between anus and testicles was swollen. After 2 days,he shake out something like black pepper in his ear. The dog has gone through this horrible ordeal. Now new foreign objects inside his ear plus a swollen bump RID: 37820
     3/31/12   5     5     4     4   West Boulevard is the only vet clinic in Vancouver where I will take my rabbits. Dr. Potter is the best rabbit vet around and she is a leader in rabbit medical care. (At one time, this was the only place you could get Oxbow CC). She can come across a little gruff sometimes but she has a heart of gold. Without a doubt, she loves animals and is completely devoted to their well being. She gets very frustrated and hurt when she sees an animal mistreated and doesn't "suffer fools gladly". Her daugher Sarah is a great vet too and I am so happy to see she is working with her Mom (I remember when she was a little girl hanging out at the clinic). Dr. Kuteny is also an excellent vet. Mandy the receptionist is a gem. They are expensive, but you pay for priceless expertise. You might have to wait for your appointment, but they will never rush a patient through so you know you're always getting 100% from them. If you have a rabbit, don't go anywhere else. RID: 33265
Click to report rating    2/26/12   5     5     4     5   The staff at this clinic are so friendly and good to me and my animals. They speak honestly and work hard to do their best by the animals that they treat. They provide excellent service for a very fair value. I trust them fully with the care of my pets. RID: 32488
     3/31/11   1     3     3     1   Dog has allergies. The doctor recommended my dog Sasha to eat z/d. How is science diet z/d going to solve this? Look at the ingredients: Dried Potato Product, Hydrolyzed Chicken Liver, Potato Starch, Soybean Oil (preserved with BHA, propyl gallate and citric acid), Hydrolyzed Chicken, Powdered Cellulose, Iodized Salt, Choline Chloride. Why is it that the first three ingredients are not meat muscle? RID: 24007
Click to report rating    10/20/10   3     3     4     3   Clinic is clean, staff are O-KAY- sometimes kinda grouchy and sarcastic. Dr. R wouldn't treat an ear infection for my dog, instead she insisted that I purchase some vet prescribed diet ( ie. Science Diet w/ fillers, by-products and other crap). She got hostile when I told her that I would be feeding my dog raw food. The physical exams are pretty expensive for what it is- $80 for 10 minutes. RID: 20408
Click to report rating    3/14/09   5     5     5     5   The best vets and clinic! Especially for treating rabbits, which Dr. Potter leads the way in research and care. I have been to two other vets who claim specialty with rabbit care & treatment before finding West Boulevard 7 years ago and they do no compare. True care for pets and their persons role in this treatment - after all, we are a team. These doctors and technicians run as a true team to ensure the BEST care and you feel you are part of the family while you are there. This clinic supports rescues and has a heart with wonderful friendly caring staff and doctors. Mandy is such a treat to be greeted by each time! I can no say enough as I have had three rabbits over the years who have had some form of cancer and their lives have been incredibly extended with treatments as this clinic embraces an integrated approach to healing and palliative care. I feel safe with my pet in their hands, hearts and minds. I have learned so much about caring for my pets from this clinic! RID: 12103
