Applecross Veterinary Hospital

We have been taking our pets here for years. Although it has changed ownership, the current Veterinarians and staff are great!

Very happy with the incredibly thorough and understanding care. All staff were friendly, Dr Tara was exceptional. I will be bringing all our pets here from now on.

Very pleasant and helpful on the phone. Was put on a cancellation list and got called right away. I like how the Dr.gave me a price for each procedure first and she was very thorough with my dogs check up. She did not recommend anything that she didn’t feel was urgent.
This is not my regular vet (we live out of province). Dr.said she would follow up in a few days. Overall a very good experience

I've had good experiences here with my dog and those I've referred have had good experiences. I tend to find they don't over do procedures just to bloat the bill, they stay honest and on task. Staff is friendly and always try to accommodate emergencies when possible. Location and parking is a plus as well.

I love these people. Very gentle, understanding, and reasonable. I appreciate that they really do what's best for the animal, and are willing to educate rather than pass judgement. Nine years of visiting bad vets throughout Nanaimo, and I finally found a place where I feel comfortable bringing my furbabies.

Very compassionate individuals work here. Our sweet crazy kitten was hit by a car and they were very consoling, calm and helpful. Highly recommend all the services offered for cremation and paw prints.

The receptionist at this clinic is very unhelpful or just not educated in phone etiquette. I phoned to enquire about a particular brand of kitten food and was told abruptly "We only carry veterinary grade" i asked again if they may have something they could recommend and again "We only carry. " Has she assumed that i just do not want to pay the price? Very disappointing customer service.

Went in here 2018 with my cat who had a lump on her chin. Vet said " well it could be one of 5 different reasons but since you're from Vancouver, why don't you just take her to your vet there"

I thought ok, odd thing to say. But ill leave then.
Well the shock to find out I had to pay $95.00 for that nugget of wisdom!
5 mins.

Seriously, look for a caring vet!
Now that I live here, I have managed to do that.

In Vancouver that kind of consultation would have been free period.
