Super friendly staff and very considerate of family pets. I was extremely impressed with the service Charlie received and it was free of charge (tick removal). Thank you for helping out my buddy.

Very quickly took Tonka in and had him assessed. Very friendly staff, very nice doctor he explained, things very well. Very reasonably priced. I am confident they will take very good care of Tonka for years to come.

My one cat who I got registered here when she got spayed (one year ago) had a seizure the other day, and it worried me (obviously lol) and I got my partner to call gardiners Rd animal hospital to be able to bring her in immediately to get checked and make sure this wouldn't get any worse, they knew my cats name as soon as I mentioned my last name (which was actually really comforting to know) We got there roughly 15mins later, and she was seen right away. I got a call part way through the checkup and talked a bit about what was happening and get some more information from myself. After 1 hr, she was good to come home and with medication! She has since been seizure free, and the medications are working!

Dr. Farooq and staff are so friendly and caring. I feel like they genuinely care about the animals they see, and I know that every time I take my dog there she is being provided with the best care. Everyone is professional and their hours are great, highly recommend!

Gardiners Road Animal Hospital was very responsive to the needs of our 11 month old cat last Monday. He was having trouble urinating and we expected some sort of urinary tract infection. We called first thing on Monday morning and they were able to take him at 10 am. The treatment protocol was very comprehensive and effective. Although treatment had to be explained over the phone due to covid restrictions, the vet was very thorough and took all the time we needed to answer any questions. He clearly cared about our cat's outcome and wanted to make sure he didn't leave anything to chance in terms of his recovery. The office has called to follow up on two occasions which we appreciated and again shows that they are willing to go the extra mile to ensure client's success and satisfaction. They also have great hours, both through the week and on the weekend, which minimizes the extra cost and stress of having to get a pet into an emergency clinic or hospital. We also had our cat neutered and vaccinated at Gardiners Road Animal Hospital. He recovered quickly and the costs were very competitive.

I took my fur baby there over the Easter weekend. I was very impressed. The staff were very good to my baby, he has anxiety issues and they seemed genuinely to really care for him and try to make him at ease. I would highly recommend this place. Thank you so much for taking such good care of him.

I just recently switched my 10 year old dog to this vet and they have been amazing. My dog loves going here. Shes been having a lot of issues with one of her eyes and Dr Farooq has been amazing with finding something that will help fix the problem. He explains everything in a way that i can understand what is happening and he makes sure i understand why he is suggesting different treatments. They have also called a couple days after every appointment to check up on my dog and make sure i have no concerns about anything. I recommend this vet to everyone i know.

Took my male Siamese in because of vomiting. Diagnosed with pancreatitis and stayed overnight. In the cage on the way home he was struggling to get out and very distraught. When I let him out, his hind legs were crippled. He was so traumatized he barely left my arms for two weeks. He was there from 11 am till 5:30 pm next day. What did they do to make him crippled and so terrified?! I do not recommend this place. Apparently he should have had a full pill not 1/2 pill of antibiotics for his weight. They gave me a liquid as a food stimulant. He hated it and was eating well so I stopped giving it to him. Later found it was actually to cost his stomach to cause less pain. I will never go back there! Jean Quinn

We have received the most amazing service from both Gardiner Road and East Side Veterinary Services. Dr Farooq has gone above and beyond in supporting us and our aging dog and has even made himself available to us after hours. We have owned our dog for over 11 years and never had this level of service in Toronto. The teams at both locations are reliable, supportive and kind. Highly recommend them!

I had a problem with my 12 year old cat on a Saturday tried to contact her regular Veterinarian but could not get any respond. On Sunday called Gardiners Road Animal Hospital they took her in that afternoon treated her. Dr. Farooq & staff are very kind and friendly. They even do a follow up call to see how your pet is doing. If you have any problems with your pets i would recommend giving them a call.

We took our 4 yr old cat to the Gardiners Road Animal Hospital with what we thought was a broken arm, but the vet diagnosed it quickly as an infection and abscess and with an antibiotic shot, some pain killer and some anti inflammatory to take home, our kitty was better by the next day. Fantastic treatment, fast, professional and thoughtful. We are super delighted to have found this clinic! Thanks to the staff and vet!

Best vet I have ever been to - and I have been to many over my 30 years of pet ownership (cumulatively 8 dogs and 5 cats). I now have 2 senior dogs and 2 young cats and I continue to be impressed. The end of life care is superior.

Their vet techs support declawing despite scientific evidence provided to them and are incredibly rude if you disagree.

I took my four month old kitten in for kitten vaccines and the vet held him down into the table and put the needle in his leg that then went through hia leg. Do not take your animals here

This place is awful, if you love your pet you will take it elsewhere. They will call you obsessively until they have throughly nickel and dimed you. They soaked us for an x-ray, 3 different types of antibiotics that didn't work and then a mucus swab test for $200 that we never seen the results of. They stopped calling us completely after the we paid for the swab test and they had been calling us almost daily before that. Our cat was limping after visiting them due to being wrapped in a towel and being held down. And this cat is one that never stops purring, the kids can carry him around upside down like a baby and he just loves the attention. Not at all a difficult animal to deal with. If you love your pet, and care about how it is treated you will avoid this place.

I went to the clinic this eve. I am still shaken by my experience. I had to arrange for a euthanasia for my cat and didn't contact my regular veterinary clinic as I was sure it would be difficult to get a last- minute appointment at this time of year. The scheduling was great a long with the receptionist greeting and treatment. Once in the treatment room for my appointment the vet entered, asked me to go around the table. By the time I came around the table, instead of retrieving clippers and shaving his arm like many other procedures I have been witness too, she proceeded to rip 2 chunks of his hair out of his arm by the time I was around to the her side. I was so stunned, I didn't know what to say. I have seen many euthanasia's, blood retrieval's, etc, but nothing quite so barbaric. I didn't have a chance to say anything and she was injecting his fatal dose....only it wasn't enough...she proceeded to pull 2 more chunks of hair from his other arm and injected his final fate. Had I not been completely flabbergasted at her performance I would have said something, but it all happened so fast. I was 11 minutes from the time I walked in the door , had this tragic experience, paid the bill, $341.00 and got back in my car... They have made me appreciate how very lucky I am to have the Veterinary Clinic I do have. I have gone through this procedure many times before....never, ever seen anything like this????
