Dr. Erin Murphy treated our dog Biff, she had and has a few medical problems, that's what happens when you are a 17 yr old pooch.
Dr. Murphy was absolutely lovely the way she treated Biff and her way of expressing and explaining medical terminology to a regular Joe Blow. Thankyou so much. Highly recommended..

I love Dr Bartel he truly cares about the animals he treats. I have been vetting with him for over 10 years and no matter where in Edmonton I live I will drive the extra mile to go to his office. His ladies that work with him in the front and back of house are wonderful as well. They always remember my furbabies and any special traits or habits they have. Their office is moving a couple doors down to a bigger office.... CONGRATULATIONS!! I wish you much success in your new location!
