Yonge-Davenport Pet Hospital

The best vet clinic! They diagnosed my cat with diabetes and made sure I was fully informed about everything to do with her care. She got better really quickly and doesn’t even need insulin anymore. I believe this has a lot to do with how attentive the vets at this clinic are! They answer all my questions through email with kindness and great detail, and it has saved me a lot of stress. Very reasonable prices for downtown as well, I’ve never felt as if I was being scammed. Extra thanks to Dr Levinson and Dr Cummings:)

Be aware this vet dr Vlad stefanescu
Prescribed my cat a medicine not accepted by the FDA
In the United States
Because is known to have cats go into kidney failure
And he did not tell us
Then all of a sudden my car was sick
Took him back to this man
He said if you don’t take him to the emergency room that I found for you that will charge 5000 dollars to take him he will die now because the medicine I prescribed you for artritis
And instead he charge me 700 for this blood work that he done on my cat I only charge you 500 and found this emergency room
After a week there and 8000 dollars
He got to live for another year throwing up almost everyday and never got better, he suffered for no reason, and then he collapsed again, again to the emergency room, and another week and 5000 dollars more my incredible healthy and family cat, past away, he pushed us to give our cat this medicine we had doubts and he said repeatedly why wouldn’t you want the cat to take medicine for arthritis? This vet charges for each and every visit mercilessly, he doesn’t care about you or your pets, and the dose he gave us was meant for a dog! Beware of this vet, I have proof I have receipts and articles to back me up!

The staff at this establishment are wonderful.when people bring their animals to a Veterinary Clinic they are nervous.it is a natural impulse to feel uncomfortable. However the professional attitude and the kindness that these people showed my dog made me feel absolutely comforted. I have nothing but good things to say about this excellent Veterinary Clinic

Great vets and staff! They constantly called to check in on our kittens, were very transparent about costs and proactively scheduled appointments. I feel like my kitten is in good hands and would recommend taking your pet here. Their prices are reasonable too!

I took my dog here from puppyhood until we moved out of the city two years later. My dog was first seen by Dr. Sun, then primarily by Dr. Brown, and occasionally Dr. Stefanescu. Although we were unable to enter the clinic for the first year or so due to COVID, they have ample front-desk staff and techs who are friendly, happy to answer cost questions beforehand if you ask (and provide estimates anyway), and answer emails in a timely manner. The vets are approachable, helpful, and caring toward the animals they see. I would continue to take my dog here if we lived within the city limits.

Parking is surprisingly easy for such a central location- the lot next to the Canadian Tire is easily accessed- and there's often space in front of the clinic itself to stop and drop off your pet inside (just be careful when crossing the bike lane).

Would recommend this clinic to anyone looking for a downtown option.

Been coming to this vet for over 3 years. The doctors have always been patient with our concerns and are transparent about pricing. We never felt pressured to do any additional testing/ procedures that weren’t absolutely necessary.

For a vet office in the area, they are very fairly priced. I would recommend to those looking for a vet in the area.

I had my first appointment at this clinic for my 2 cats and I was very impressed by the service I got. The vet did not try to push any unnecessary treatments on me and only looked for the best plan for my cats. All the staff were pleasant and answered all my questions. They were also extremely reasonably priced! Will definitely be my permanent clinic from now on

I love that you don’t have to stay for hrs in the emergency room waiting for your pet to see a doctor, you wait at home and they call you to come once is your turn. The wait time at the hospital was short, the doctors were very nice and helpful

Good place! I always take my dog here and the environment is friendly, doctors are well prepared and professionals, always willing to answer my questions and patience with my energetic puppy

I have been taking both my cats to Yonge-Davenport pet hospital for the last seven years and I have nothing but spectacular experience with this clinic at all time.
The staff are friendly, thorough and professional.
Dr. Vlad is tremendously knowledgeable, caring, kind and comforting. I trust him fully; he never pushes for any treatments to increase the bill.
Thank you Dr. Vlad!
-S

Can't say enough positive things. I called last minute because my vet is closed on Sundays. They made a spot for me. So extremely kind, the veterinarian (Dr. Nasseri) was so helpful and informative. Thank you again.

The entire team at Yonge-Davenport Pet Hospital is exceptional and has provided the best care for my dog in the city. Your pet will be in great hands at Yonge-Davenport, I can’t recommend them highly enough!

Dr. Vlad and Dr. Cummings have been incredibly knowledgeable, skilled and compassionate and the entire staff have been so helpful and kind. The quality of care for your pet is second to none- the team makes sure to answer all of your questions quickly and thoroughly. They are trustworthy and treat your pet as if their own. I am so appreciative to the entire team, thank you!

Have been this vet for 7 years. My dog have been taken good care of all the time. They are open 7 days which is convenient for me to schedule regular check on weekends. The price range is also very reasonable. Overall, really recommend this vet.

Three years later, I still feel the same way I did below. Even more so!

This is a wonderful veterinary clinic. You won't find better.

Yonge-Davenport Pet Hospital is a wonderful place to bring your pet for genuine, ethical, responsible, informative, supportive and warm-hearted care. The staff are positive, professional people (all of them!) and they genuinely care about your pet, you as a client, and their business. I'm so pleased with my experience with them over the last year, and have supplied some reasons (in brief) below.

1. No matter what any other reviews may and say, their pricing is exceptionally fair. They make it a point of making their services appropriately-priced but also accessible for pet owners, as they are aware of the high expense of owning pets (which is our choice, as owners) but also they believe in the integrity of the services and treatment they provide - which is of course, partially supported by fair pricing.

2. The staff is always - ALWAYS - polite, friendly, welcoming and professional. They are also respectful and inclusive. I am a deaf person and they've made every effort to be aware of and supportive of what I need to communicate with them effectively.

3. After I had only just recently transferred my pets' files over to them, my beloved Siamese cat died very unexpectedly of a heart attack. I came home at 10pm to find him, and emailed the hospital to ask their advice, as I had never experienced this before. Dr. Vlad responded that same night (long after work hours!) with a wonderfully compassionate and supportive email, letting me know what I should do and expressing his condolences. Dr. Justin, who is my regular vet, is unfailingly knowledgeable, caring and good-natured while also being clear and supportive about what I need to do to care for my pets.

4. When I made the choice to get a new kitten, who was 3 months old and hyperactive, peeing outside the box, racing around my apartment breaking things and harassing my older cat (ha!) I was stressed out! Dr. Justin provided so many helpful suggestions and resources that made a difference OVERNIGHT. I was so grateful for that (and so was my older cat!) and as a result I was able to enjoy having the kitty and encourage his bond with my other cat successfully.

5. Making appointments with them is very easy, as they are promptly responsive and make the effort to be available for you and your pet at convenient times.

If you're looking for a new vet/pet hospital, this is it!

Great vet (Dr Levinson) & staff who are easily accessible via e-mail or phone. My dog was sick and treated on the same day after I shared his symptoms; and subsequently had more issues towards which the staff promptly answer my questions and concerns in both e-mail and phone. Highly recommend if you’re around the area!

I took my cat Holly here for years, and the staff were always amazing, but I'm especially thankful for all the support they provided when I had to relocate to the United Kingdom for work. Trying to import a pet to the United Kingdom is famously difficult, but Yonge-Davenport Pet Hospital helped me with all of the paperwork, vaccinations and instructions I needed to get Holly across the pond smoothly. Holly and I are nicely settled into our new home now, and I just wanted to leave this review as a way of saying thank you for all of the help getting us here!

This is always such a pleasure to interact with the team! They are kind, joyful and professional. Dr. Cummings is absolutely wonderful. As pet parents know, pets are rarely delighted to come to the vet. This is the best place to make their visit as pleasant as possible

Every single vets in this hospital really give me a vibe of “I’m only becoming a vet because I didn’t do so well on MCAT. ” I feel like none of the vets in this hospital are actually animal person, they wanna be a people doctor instead, which means that they’re definitely more well trained/professional than other vets, but they aren’t animal people. Which is fine I guess

I don't have the vocabulary necessary to adequately describe how phenomenal this place is. My kitten had an eye infection on a Sunday and very few places were open, so I really appreciate that they were. I called them and Selena answered. I'm not sure how they found a literal ANGEL to join their team, but they did! She was friendly and SO helpful and got me an appointment. Once there, I was overwhelmed by how wonderful every single person was. Honestly, I have never experienced such incredible service anywhere in my life. I was seen promptly, the vet and the technician were both incredible with my kitten, treating her with respect and affection. They took their time with me and made sure I understood everything fully and answered all of my questions clearly. I never felt rushed and was encouraged to ask questions. The entire place was bright and clean as well. It's always stressful when your pet isn't feeling well, and every single person in this building was such a gem that I was put completely at ease - they made both me and my kitten comfortable. The care my kitten received was top notch and I cannot stress enough that the service was unparalleled. If I could give it more stars, I would in a heartbeat. My primary vet is a 5 minute walk from my home and I will most certainly be switching to Yonge-Davenport Pet Hospital - the distance is such a small price to pay for such a phenomenal group of people. Thank you all so much!

Dr Brown is so patient and knowledgeable. She also considers for the owners for the vet costs. She gives plan A and B and never scares you or forces you to do the unnecessary checks. Costs are reasonable. Love this vet.

They are reasonable in every way.and it's an overall great energy. Super gateful for having them so close to my home.

P. S. Extraordinary support staff. Queeny loves them as well

I cannot say enough nice things about this place. The vets and techs are so nice and friendly, they really put you at ease about any issues your pet may have. They're also really upfront about their pricing, which is always good. I know some people might say their prices are high, but most of the vets in the area are actually more expensive.
6/5

A friend recommended Yonge-Davenport pet hospital to me and I’m forever grateful to her. I have taken my dog here on 4 different occasion and dealt with different veterinarians which I can only remember two dr Vivek and dr levinson and all were really great. Very honest, super caring and calm and patient on explaining things. No surprise costs or unnecessary medication. Thank you

They turned away my elderly Bernese Mountain dog, and told me to go to emergency care instead (emergency care then told me to go to my vet). At no point was I offered another appointment by Y-D after I called back (having been turned away from the three urgent care centers they suggested and desperate for help), in fact they doubled down and turned me away again and said they weren’t able to do any of the testing or specialist procedures in their clinic. I found them to be lacking in sympathy, or understanding given the situation. Ultimately, I was able to organize a zoom conference with another veterinarian (Midtown Mobile Veterinary Hospice Services), who was exceptionally helpful and compassionate.

Update: at no point did I say anything other than I thought your practice of turning away dogs who needed help to be shameful. I did not say anything verbally abusive, as you suggest.

They're really nice and accommodating and take great care with your animals. Vets are super transparent and helpful.

I am so grateful that I chose this vet for my cat. I've been with them since they first opened. Dr. Vlad is incredible. He genuinely cares about animals. When my cat had some serious health concerns that required me to monitor her closely at home, Dr. Vlad was so kind to have me email update him everyday even though his schedule is crazy busy. The entire staff atmosphere is very pleasant. They are always friendly and helpful no matter how busy they are. The price is also very fair. They don't try to charge you extra for unnecessary things. I think everyone here genuinely works from a place of care, which I very much appreciate! I highly recommend this vet!

Our go to Vet, and can't say I have any complaints besides parking. The doctors have always been able to offer the right medication/solution to all our dog problems. The reception is also very friendly unlike others.

Took care of my pup when she had pyo.very polite staff.a bit pricy but hey it’s good service and very honest.

I've recently moved to Toronto during the pandemic and I decided to go to this hospital after reading all the great reviews. They definitely lived up to the reputation, I have so many different positive things to say about Yonge-Davenport pet hospital!

I have had interactions with Dr. Burke and Dr. Brown, they are both amazing vets. Both are so kind and extremely empathetic when dealing with your pet's illness. Due to COVID-19, I have not met either one in person, however, this does not in any way impact the care that they provide in any way to my Great Dane and Sphynx. They both go above and beyond and are very trustworthy and knowledgeable- they are not out to get you to extra spend money on your animals. They are very genuine and provide you with a list of different options when selecting the best course of treatment. They make sure to explain things clearly, let you ask questions and see what you're comfortable with without rushing you off the phone. The recommendations they give and the sincere follow-up go such a long way and is very appreciated.

Also want to mention the admin team at the front desk, they are also so kind, friendly, and empathic towards your animals. They go above and beyond, to ensure your pet receives the care that they require.

My animals are my children and I would highly recommend this wonderful place to anyone! Thank you for all you do Yonge-Davenport!

Xox Winston & Nairobi!

Had a horrible experience here, along with many in the neighbourhood. They forced us to buy medication for our dog that was unnecessary. They also claimed our dog was aggressive and needed a sedative to come back to the clinic. We had been to a previous vet with no aggression issues, as well as a new vet with no issues. It turns out this clinic loves to prescribe tranquilizers and barely assesses the situation at hand. Additionally the drop off was rude, no vet ever met us in person, no one ever explained anything to us properly and my dog always came out shaken and scared. Would not recommend this place.
Since posting this the owner has written a post indicating his work, unfortunately he was not the doctor that saw my dog. I have never seen him or spoken with him.

Very flexible with appointments, they don’t ask for unnecessary tests and very knowledgeable doctors.

UPDATE: during the pandemic, the Yonge-Davenport where a bit less flexible and understanding. While I understand that guidelines exist for a reason, I had an experience where I wasn’t clearly explained the procedure of drop off and was blamed for not accepting them. Followed by them declining treatment to my dog during lockdown and forcing me to go somewhere else. They could be trying to be selective with their time and energy, but I found their approach slightly too ‘cut throat’ for a place that’s supposed to truly understand the connection pet owners have with their pets.

Dr. Vlad and the team at Yonge-Davenport Pet Hospital have been there for over 5 years for the compassionate care of all of my rescue cats- through the good and not so good times. Always with love, compassion, helpful discussions and genuine care. I would be lost without Dr. Vlad's steady hand and heart in dealing with the palliative cats I most often adopt. Thank you all at YD.xo

Incredibly responsive, kind, and knowledgeable. It’s a sign that our dog wants to go in to see the vet every time we pass the office on a walk.

My dog ​​Momo has been examined in Dr. Stefanescu’s clinic since he was two months old. My dog ​​limped when it was about six months old. I was very anxious. But Dr. Stefanescu gave very professional advice after the examination. He said that my dog ​​does not need surgery and X-rays, as long as he takes more walks, he will get better. One month later, my dog ​​really recovered naturally.
Every time I take my dog ​​to this clinic for an examination, I am very satisfied with the enthusiasm and friendliness of the staff. I am so glad I found such a good veterinary clinic.

Love this vet. Everyone is so sweet + kind, from reminders, to booking over the phone, to explaining all information up front. Dr Vlad is candid + knowledgeable and I feel a sense of comfort when he has my senior boy in his care!

Dr. Vlad and his team are fantastic - I can't imagine where anyone would find better veterinary care. Dr. Vlad always takes the time to explain things clearly and treats my cats like they're his own. When something is not right, you can count on a followup phone call. When one of my cats developed an untreatable form of lymphoma last year, Dr. Vlad took a great deal of time answering my emails and returning my phone calls. His compassion, dedication and commitment to his patients is exceptional.

Dr. Vlad helped my cat receive the care he needed. Super caring and empathetic doctor. Staff was wonderful. Booking an appointment was easy and there was minimal wait time. Great first time experience here and I would definitely recommend this clinic.

Amazing vets and very knowledgeable staff here! The phone line is very accessible and they reply emails in a fairly timely manner.the team is patient and they tend to all the details about the pet condition and care.i took the foster cat in for some checkups, shots update, and basic grooming on multiple occasion and they informed me everything i need to know.

I was hesitant to write this review because I so wanted this to be my dogs primary vet because Dr. Sun and Dr. Brown were very compassionate towards my dogs well-being and my concerns. Having brought my dog to five other vets just for them to all tell me the same thing about her kennel cough, it was nice to finally have a vet who took my concerns seriously. I initially spoke to Dr. Sun, who suggested an x-ray and created an entire treatment plan including changing my dogs diet to their canned food and antibiotics ($425). A week goes by and my dog is not doing any better, so I bring her back and get a blood test, fecal test and respiratory test and some more antibiotics ($874) and it was at this point that Dr. Brown took over for some reason and I never heard back from Dr. Sun. Another week goes by and still no improvement, her diarrhea actually got worse from the canned food so we stopped that. I bring her back again and have more x-rays and another round of antibiotics ($209). My dog ended up receiving the wrong dosage of antibiotics for one week because they failed to communicate the fact that it was cut into different sizes. All that was said was that I needed to give 3 pieces- they didn't specify that it needed to be two big pieces and one small piece. All the tests came out negative so they suggested forwarding the x-rays to a radiologist as well as referring her to another vet for a bronchial lavage since they did everything they could to try to figure out why she kept coughing. At this point I had already spent $1500 on her treatment so I declined and decided to wait it out. Her kennel cough goes away a few days later. I call back to make an appointment for the kennel cough vaccine. I asked if I could have the check up fee waived and just have the vaccine done since Dr. Brown said that if shes not coughed for 3-5 days then it is completely healed. They declined and told me that a check up is necessary. I ended up taking my dog back to one of the original vets who simply did the check up and vaccine for $34, no check up fee was charged reasonably so. At that point, I realized that this clinic just felt like a money grab. As a first time dog owner, I excessively worry about my dogs health which is why I brought her to five different vets. I didn't want to accept that it would 'just pass with time' as they all said and I didn't want to accept such a 'light' diagnosis for something I thought was so serious. However, I felt like my worry was used as an opportunity to try to get as much money out of me for treatments that would provide only as much as peace of mind. This is something that I take fault in, and is a huge learning lesson. Unfortunately, I will not be coming back to this clinic due to unnecessary over treatment.

Edit: Spoke to Dr. Vlad. He was understanding and apologetic of this situation which I appreciate. He took my feedback into consideration and says changes will be implemented to avoid situations like this happening in the future. I wanted to clarify that Dr Brown called/emailed me regularly throughout the treatment and diligently answered every question I had. I have no doubt she is a great vet. It was her approach to Marus treatment which could have been better. I understand her best interest was in marus health, but the best treatment doesn’t always mean to jump the gun on every thing. I did request blood work and fecal testing, but as a frantic first time dog mom, I didn’t know any better. I ignored the advice of five other vets. I was desperate and terrified, and was willing to spend whatever it would take for Maru to get better. As a professional vet, there should have been better guidance. Instead, I felt they just went along with my hysteria and it was all yes yes yes. Even when they’ve exhausted all their measures, I was presented with even more money spending options of sending the x-rays to a radiologist, and a bronchial lavage. I was never given the reassurance that it may possibly just be a bad case of kennel cough and to wait a bit before or between testing.

Some of the nicest vets I have ever encountered. They care and their prices are very reasonable. They do not push you for diagnostics like vets I have visited in the past and that is much appreciated. Keep up the amazing work. Even through COVID, they continue to work and help animals.

Very friendly staff, receptionists seem organized and price is great too! Been to different vets in the suburb, and the puppy exam here is by far the best price. It was around 50 bucks whereas other places all charged around 100. We will definitely go back to this vet from here on.

If you are looking for a trustworthy place to take your pet, I highly recommend Yonge-Davenport Pet Hospital. We were very pleasantly surprised by the great service and care we received very recently.
Dr. Sun was very transparent, kind and genuine. She always kept us informed and we were never billed without consultation. The hospital is very fair with their prices and this was new for us! We received followup phone calls and emails with regards to our pet's health. To Veronica, Jessica and all of the caring staff, thank you for going the extra mile. I have never written a review in my life. I know how we all love our pets and want the best for them and so I felt compelled to share our positive experience.

I really like this pet hospital. Before you do any exam or purchase any medication, they will tell you the price of each, and makes it transparent. Price is also very fair. Staffs have a welcoming and patient attitude for any question. Definitely recommends!

I have nothing but good things to say about this place. Every interaction is open, positive and professional. The rates are more than fair, especially for a downtown clinic. They patiently and clearly answer every question or concern. And they follow up. I initially came here because they are close to me, but if I ever move away I will absolutely travel here.
I am thankful that they are here for me and my pet.

Dr. Vlad and his team are compassionate and explain everything very patiently. I had to take my cat in twice in a week due to trouble breathing and she was attended to by Drs. Vlad and Brown. They took time explaining what they checked for and treatment options. My cat is still ill at the time of this review but we have a treatment plan in place and I hope she returns to her old self very soon.

I am very pleased with this Animal Hospital. Even during COVID-19, I found my experience to be very smooth, transparent, and comfortable. What I liked about my experience is that my questions were answered directly and the professionals here are happy to educate. Given the transparency, it felt less business operated and more focused on the wellbeing and health of both pets and owners, which is perfect to say the least. Will be coming back. Thanks!

Great location and great service! Took my cat in when he was experiencing some issues and they helped me through an emergency. They continued to reach out about extra information about his condition and calling for regular updates on how he is doing. Thank you so much! They are also now helping me to prepare him for traveling abroad. Would highly recommend!

Really appreciate how professional and helpful they are. Thanks to the team for taking such good care of our girls.

My 7 month Shiba was having concerning black stools. As a first time pet owner and nervous doggo mom, I can say hands down that the veternarians and staff here are incredible. They helped reassure my nerves, were incredibly responsive in many email exchanges and supportive throughout the stressful process.

Another incident where I was walking my pup when she was around 4 months; 1 hour later she was wobbling and shaking. She looked like she was seizing, I called the clinic and they were calm, collective and again so professional and supportive. Dr. Brown and Dr. Vlad are such incredibly experienced and kind veternatians. Soba digested some marijuana from taking a bite from a cigarette. I left feeling relieved, not judged and stress free knowing Soba was in the right care.

I highly recommend bringing your pets here. I've had nothing but warm welcomes and positive experiences. The staff are so sincere and they really do go above and beyond! I always leave every visit, call or email exchange feeling more well-informed, reassured and satisfied with their services.

I had Dr. Justin looking after my FIV positive kitty for a couple of years. Mine was a challenging case since he had developed issues that weren't clear even after taking him to a specialist twice. He always treated me well and was clear and honest with me about what our options were. I'd definitely recommend this place to anyone around. I've heard from others that Dr. Vlad is also great.

The only reason this isn't 5 stars is that the clinic had to forward me to the emergency clinic when my guy had an emergency and to get any special treatments, ultrasounds, etc. That clinic is conveniently a couple of blocks away, but it would have been nice to have a more comfortable place available when he needed to be put on IV and under observation.

The doctors at Yonge and Davenport pet hospital were so amazing. I have a timid rescue dog and all doctors were fantastic with him.

Dr. Brown and staff took wonderful care of our kittens during both their routine vaccinations and spay procedures. They kept in contact over the course of the surgery, and let us know how the kittens were both doing.

There’s nothing but positive things to say about this place, great service, not overpriced, clean, etc. You can also see that the whole team actually cares about your pet. Best clinic in town!

The best vet clinic in Toronto, we couldn't imagine going anywhere else. Their staff is kind, compassionate, understanding, etc. All of the good qualities.

We have used Yonge-Davenport Pet Hospital since we moved to Toronto over 3 years ago. They took unbelievable care of our rescue French Bulldog, in fact, he loved to visit them!

We currently take our new French Bulldog and our housecat to them. We have never received less than exceptional care from the staff and vets.

They are crystal clear on any costs that are associated with your animals and give you a multitude of options when it comes to caring for them. Prices, in my mind, are extremely reasonable.

I would recommend them in a heart beat. One of, if not, the best vet hospitals in the city.

My selfie whenever is sick, only one doctor at this clinic knows well how to do treatments. Love ️ it.

The staff here are very friendly, and even though a trip to the vet is never really a fun event for my puppy, he loves all the employees here. They are gentle with him, and you can sense how much they care about each animal. Great place to take your furry friends!

Caring and professional staff. My dog had bladder stone surgery here. Glad to have found this clinic, definitely recommend.

This place is great. The staff and the vets are super friendly and reassuring and the price for my cat's dental work was very good. I would gladly recommend this place to anyone - keep up the great work!

Very flexible with appointments, they don’t ask for unnecessary tests and very knowledgeable doctors.

Great service, reasonable price.

Everyone is very nice and professional.

I’m rly happy that I chose this place.

They answer all your concerns and questions.

Love how they do the follow ups and check with my about my pets.

Our nine year old Rottweiler has been having problems with his activity and chest, so we took him to many vets. All of them wanted a lot of money just for check up and then gave us guesses of what he might have, and to do surgery. Thank god we encountered this vet because he gave us xrays on the spot and told us straight what was wrong and that there is no point of doing surgery. May god bless him because I really think he genuinely cares for animals.

Amazing staff, very helpful and informative. Props to Dr. Vlad who had great recommendations and is very personable!

I really only have great things to say about this place. I was recommended Dr. Justin by a friend and I'm so glad we came here. Our cat had a suspected bladder infection and they were clearly laid out all treatment options, costs and next steps to help our cat feel better. There is parking next door at the Canadian Tire, friendly reception staff and very clean facilities.

Our experience at Dr. Vlad’s clinic has been fantastic. I have been bringing my pets here for the past 2 years. We have a dog, Ragnar, and 3 cats. When we first got our dog 2 years ago, he had so many puppy issues (giardia and allergies) ; he also got a cold. Anyway, we had to bring him at least once a month for the first few months. We never felt Dr. Vlad was trying to make money of us; on the contrary, we always feel he does what is necessary and tries to avoid unnecessary spending. In fact, every time there is something, I usually email him, and he replies quite fast and only advises to bring my pet over when it is necessary. When I first brought my cats for a checkup and shots, he gave us a discount without asking. It was a nice surprise. Ragnar is always extremely happy when he visits and thanks to Dr. Vlad, he is now a healthy dog, with his allergies under control. Ragnar got neutered here as well and it was like nothing happened. Within hours of picking him up later that day, he was his usual happy self. My last interaction with Dr. Vlad was a few weeks ago, and as usual he went above and beyond for my dog. We were in Montreal, we drove there, and Ragnar puked all the way there due to motion sickness. He was so kind as to send us a prescription to refill in Montreal. He charged us nothing. Honestly, we cannot recommend Dr. Vlad enough. He truly cares for the animals under his care, he is knowledgeable, kind, and very honest. We trust him completely.

The wonderfully kind, patient and intelligent Dr. Stefanescu makes the best medical decisions for my cat’s care. Typically Cleopatra hates vet visits and requires a muzzle, but she loves Dr. Vlad and the team here! They saved her life. I will continue to return and highly recommend this hospital.

The staff at Yonge Davenport, are kind and friendly and helpful! Dr. Justin is our vet and he is very knowledgeable and is both professional in his care of our dog and straightforward when it comes to pricing options and never tries to upsell us on unnecessary products or services.

They will try to get as much money as possible from you.even though their doctor saw your kitty they ask for additional exam cost on top of shots, which is ridiculous. Other vets in the city does not ask for that. What prices I was told prior to the appointment and what I paid was completely different.so beware of that.as much as they show a caring attitude and call you many times, i do think this place is a very expensive place. I would not be returning there.for some antibiotic i paid $268 dollars in one visit.

I called to make an appt to unfortunately put my (over 17 year old) pooch down. I thought she would make it a few more days but we woke up Sunday morning and just new today was that day. Called around and no one was able to see us especially on a Sunday except for this office. I spoke to Alessia on the phone and she was absolutely wonderful and made us an appt for the the end of the day. We saw Dr. David Sheehan. He was amazing. He explained everything and gave us all the time we needed. I felt very taken care of and I felt that each of the staff I delt with actually really cared. Thank you Kelsey for your extra help making arrangements so quickly for me the next day. Your efforts and success means the world to me.

I felt at home as soon as I walked through the door. The staff are friendly, knowledgeable, compassionate. Dr. Vlad has tremendous experience, skill, and really cares about his furry patients. Perhaps most importantly, they offer a free evaluation for dental health of cats and dogs. I have reviewed dozens of other veterinary clinics and nobody offers that. The estimate I received was reasonable and the final price came in on the lower end of the estimate. I felt respected and not taken advantage of. All options were clearly laid out to me, and the pros and cons explained. I may switch to this clinicas my regular vet because the dental specialty care was so good. The walking distance from Bloor and Yonge subway station is also a huge perk for people who do not have cars.

Avoid this vet at all costs. We raised multiple concerns that putting our cat on prednisone would give him diabetes but Dr. Justin insisted it wouldn't, and not only gave him prednisone but later told us to increase the dose. Well, lo and behold, now our cat has diabetes and we are stuck bearing the very high cost of the diabetes treatments. We are absolutely heartbroken and devastated by this situation.

Awesome clinic with awesome staff! Even though we moved to the east end, I have still been taking my dog here for the last year and a half. Although the clinic is steps from Rosedale, I have found the rates to be comparable to other vets in the city.

It's easy to see that Dr. Vlad and Dr. Justin truly care about the health of my dog as they both spend time explaining what they are doing and why. This is a fantastic clinic and I highly recommend it.

Staff were friendly and seemed happy to be there. Dr. J patiently answered all our questions and concerns about our cat. Costs were reasonable too. Would definitely come back!
