Click to report rating    7/8/22   3     3     3     1   good vet for the RICH THEY WOULD not LET ME BE WITH MY DOG WHEN THEY PUT HIM TO SLEEP heartbreaking to us, the prices were crazy expensive. RID: 70378
Click to report rating    12/29/19   1     3     3     1   I tried to call her because of an emergency with my cat, she had no intention of helping him in any way, simply just wanted to put him down, demanded I call the spca and surrender my cat to be put down, when I did not call the spca she refused to help my cat, and told me to call Spokane or Kelowna, he needed emergency medical help and she would not do anything, I deal with ArrowLakes vet and they are incredible, Dr Fraser is the best vet in the area, and I tried to call there to speak with her but because all 3 vets in Castlegar share emergency phone service I was forced to deal with dr dennison, she does not care at all about your pet but just wants your money, she is brutally heartless and should seriously not be in the field of work she is in, Please be very careful taking your pet to her, I cant say the rest of her staff is like this, but she is! this was on Dec. 27- Dec-28 of 2019 Please keep your pets safe RID: 68930

Click to report rating    8/31/15   4     3     2     1   I too have had a bad experience with Dr Dennison My view is she cares very little about your pet and cares alot about your wallet. .... RID: 58245
Click to report rating    5/14/15   5     5     5     5   I have been going to this clinic with my pets for years. When we are away my cat goes into boarding there. My cat is really sick (but getting better) and that is because of the care that she has got at the clinic from Dr. Dennison and the staff that work there. They are an amazing bunch of ladies that work there and will go out of their way to help you and your pet.They discuss all treatment and medication that is available for the pet and let you decide what you want to do for your pet. I just want to thank them for everything they are done and again you are all amazing. Coco's family. RID: 57002
Click to report rating    6/25/14   5     5     5     5   I've brought my pets here since day 1 and I've always had very good service. Staff is professional and facilities are clean. I trust the recommendations of Dr. Dennison and always have been given options for care. Sometimes we may think costs are high for our pets but if humans had to pay for medical costs, it may open our eyes! Thanks CVC. RID: 52248

Click to report rating    8/13/12   5     5     5     5   I love this clinic its the best! Dr. Dennison is a great vet and has helped us with all are pets big and small! RID: 36486
Click to report rating    8/28/11   5     5     5     5   Dr. Dennison has always been very candid with us, she helps us weigh all of our options whenever we have a concern with any of our pets. Surgeries are only suggested and we have never felt like choosing the non-surgical remedy has upset her and we have always felt comfortable with the care our pets receive. The staff is courteous and always has good advice to offer. We take all five of our pets to CVH and none of our animals ever seem upset when we go for a visit. RID: 27226
Click to report rating    8/10/11   1     3     3     1   I too have been to this facility where the care received was less than optimum, specifically since Dr. Dennison has been in charge. They suggested a $700 surgery to suture a wound on my cats neck. When I declined the surgery I was made to feel as though I wasn't being a responsible pet owner, even after years of spending thousands of dollars on my pets. The cat's wound healed perfectly fine without barely a mark. Needless to say I don't use their services any more. RID: 26830
Click to report rating    8/2/11   5     5     5     5   Dr.Dennison and staff at the Castlegar Vet Hospital(CVH)are competent and caring.I am an RN with high standards/expectations in regard to quality ethical care for my pets.The CVH has met all of my pet’s non-emergent and emergent needs for years. Dr.Dennison's recommendations for treatment are discussed with me and my questions are always answered.I'm provided the information I need to make appropriate treatment decisions on behalf of my pets.The decision is left to me how much treatment I want to consent to. Dr.Dennison has suggested referrals to vet specialists if treating my pet warrants highly specialized care/procedures.I appreciate this option.A periodic pet check-up is suggested as a preventative measure against underlying disease/illness which if caught early can be beneficial for pet and in the end cost effective for owners. Dr.Dennison and staff conduct themselves professionally and provide skilled and compassionate care.I fully recommend Dr. Dennison and the CVH. S Norman RID: 26654
Click to report rating    3/16/11   5     5     4     5   our family of pets are in wonderful hands, whether visiting for an annual check up or medical assistance. The staff are caring and thorough. They take the time to explain procedures and care - we never feel rushed. A huge thank you to everyone at the Castlegar Vetereinary Clinic. Ann and Terry Cooke RID: 23618
Click to report rating    1/11/11   5     5     4     5   The staff are friendly, the facility is clean and modern. My dog loves going there! RID: 21952
Click to report rating    11/29/10   1     1     1     1   this vet preys on the peoples love for there animals. i know of at least 5 people including myself that have been told false information about there pet needing unessesary surgeries that would cost thousands of dollars. i think they should have there licence taken away from them RID: 21143
Click to report rating    8/7/09   1     2     2     1   Stay away from Kristy Dennision! She is the most hot-tempered, egotistical person I have encountered. She should not be veterinarian. After spending thousands of dollars without here finding out what was wrong with our pet, she called us the next day and said that there was another test to do for another $1000. We said no thanks, our pet is very old, and its just time. She then threatened to call the SPCA! This woman would fit right in to the mafia! RID: 13757
