It was very nice of them to take in my cat as he was vomiting this past 3days. I lose my husband last month and I’m not going to lose my cat as well as he is only I have left. They were very accommodating and helpful. They told me how much and what option I have. Staff were very nice. Thank you very much for your help. Highly recommended them.

My experiences at Columbia Square have always been very positive. Lately, it’s been hard to get appointments at any vet on short notice, but they have been very accommodating and have squeezed me in when I had a bit of an emergency with my cat. The vets and the staff are good at explaining procedures and I find the prices to be very affordable. The food prices here are also a bit cheaper compared to other clinics.

Do not go here. OUR DOG IS DEAD BECAUSE OF THIS CLINIC AND IT'S AWFUL MULTIPLE MISDIAGNOSES!! And they LOVED pushing us for ultrasounds when we already did it elsewhere and gave the report. They have been telling us for years our little dog has a liver shunt and needed a special diet. So for many years we bought their high priced special vegetarian food. She ended up refusing eventually and we had to make her food. They said she couldn't have anesthesia due to her liver shunt, so she never got her teeth properly cleaned and spent years with recurrent dental infections. They gave her medication that caused significant weight gain. Well...GUESS WHAT! After she had a severe breathing issue and the person on the phone was rude and said to just go elsewhere, we did. And we got a BIG surprise....She doesn't have a liver shunt and NEVER needed their expensive vegetarian food. In fact, the incorrect diet caused major long term health complications. She also never got badly needed dental cleanings because why? THEIR INCOMPETENCY! She would have been fine having anesthesia for her teeth. They didn't check her for a collapsed trachea when we told them she was coughing a lot, over-panting and breathing weird. They said she would be fine. Well....when we got this new vet...he revealed her collapsed trachea, which needed surgery. But her health was so far gone from this Dr. Brar's MASSIVE mistakes, that we had to put her down because she wouldn't have pulled through the surgery.

So happy I found this location yesterday. It was time to put our 17 year old cat out of her suffering. Our regular vet hospital is closed on Sunday's so I phoned around. Columbia moved some things around and accommodated my painful request, and helped me avoid additional procrastination. Sammy was treated with professionalism and compassion in her final 30 minutes. They partner with "Until we Meet Again" to deal with cremation. They allowed 3 of us to enter the room to say our final goodbyes, after the IV line was gently put into place. I could not stay in the room, but one of my sons stayed to the very end. I am typing this review through the tears, but every responsible pet owner knows this is somewhere in their future. Thank you to the staff at Columbia Square Animal Hospital. Rob Allen

I love these vets and this clinic . They have cared for our pets for over 10 years and their love of animals is apparent . Gentle , considerate and value for money is a 10 out of 10. I trust them and am so grateful for them.

I appreciate the respect towards animals and genuine care. Incredibly happy I switched vets. I had a concern about my dog and called to book an appointment. Most of the time i easily get the appointment but While the clinic was booking well into late September / early October, one of the doctors on the phone was deeply knowledgeable and advised me to check around to get my pup seen sooner. She was perfectly professional, compassionate, and genuinely concerned about my dog's well-being. The staff is super friendly and makes your pet feel very loved. Fair prices and amazing people.????

Pretty decent, knowledgeable, but not always the best bedside manner. Very reasonable prices though, so a good option if cost is a factor and the personal interaction/communication is less important.

I’ve called this vet office twice now and the receptionist woman took down my phone number to call me back later. I received no call from her the entire day, twice now. It seems like this is a common complaint from other reviews as well. A terrible first impression and I’ll be looking for a different vet.

This place has some of the best pricing I've seen in the area and they're also very efficient. They have always explained everything in a way that makes sense and if your pet's situation seems urgent, they'll usually find a way to squeeze you in even if they're fully booked. Been taking my pets here for years!

My dog had abdominal and Uterine infection but the doctor couldn't notice it and he didn't show us a place that can help us. He tried to fix the problem of losing hair with shampoo but she passed away few months ago. Sorry for being rude but I can never forgive this clinic because of this uneducated doctor.

The people at Columbia Square Animal Hospital are always friendly and helpful. My dog had many health moments in his early ages and they are good at calming first time dog parents. They have called to follow up on my dogs symptoms and always do their best to squeeze us in for any last minute appointments. Typical vet prices.

Ever since I moved here in 2015 I've been going to this vet. They give great advice, are very patient with my questions (and I ask a lot of them for my senior furbies!), and are always friendly and professional. Their prices are super reasonable especially for the exceptional service they give. I cannot say enough good about both Dr brar senior and Jr. I live all the way over in kitsilano right now and I still take my animals there for regular checkup stuff. Highly recommend these guys. Also - Morton is an awesome greeter!

The whole appointment flowed very smoothly. As a new patient everything was explained well and the hygienist was wonderful.

By far the best veterinary clinic out there. Both doctors are extremely gentle and caring. I have been taking my cats here for over five years and have only had positive experiences. I have never been concerned for their well-being when left overnight at the clinic. Pricing is fair and thoroughly explained. Would recommend making this your choice clinic in a heartbeat.

I have been to this vet a couple times however while trying to book an appointment they've refused even the basic of needs. I was denied scheduling a rabies shot, deworming, and nail trimming. And when asked why, Was told because of the pandemic and if I didn't like it, then to find another vet. Receptionist on the phone was extremely rude.

I wanted to like them so much as they come highly recommended by the New West community but unfortunately, I have not been impressed. I tried booking online 2 times and never heard back from anyone. I called the office and spoke to a man who took all of my information down and said they would call me to book an appointment, no one called. I called back and spoke to someone else who took all my information down and they said they would call me back for an appointment, no one did. Finally I called again and they told me that they have no record of any of my requests. I found them to be very unorganized and unprofessional. Now to go find a different vet clinic.

Amazing as always. Life long pet owner And Dr.Brar is an amazing vet. Best thing that ever happened to my cats was finding Columbia Square Animal Hospital. Other vets used previously don’t come close to the level of care and attention to detail. Thanks again for the amazing care provided.

Very good experience. Thank you so much for saving my little cat’s life, Dr. K Brar! My cat has been at this animal hospital since birth for various vaccinations and medical examinations. Their doctors are very patient and professional. The price is the most reasonable among all the animal hospitals. Even if I moved to richmond, I would still drive 40 minutes to this animal hospital.

I have been taking my cats here for years, even after I moved from New West. Great prices and caring staff. I appreciate that they take the time to explain the options, I have never been pressured into expensive procedures or treatments.
