This is the best vet clinic I have ever been to. They have been my clinic since they opened, and have taken care of all of my fur babies. I trust them with all of my pets lives. Recently I've had some issues with my kitty. They have helped, called for followups, and called just to check in. Even when the issue is a bit of a puzzle they help walk me through test results, possible next steps, and diagnosis. I can't tell you what a relief it is to have this clinic in my, and my pets, corner. Seriously, they have gotten me and my family through many stressful moments and I am grateful for

We have been really happy with her services at Glenora pet clinic. Veterinarians take their time answering your questions and always follow up with how your pet is doing after a visit or procedure. We recently got a dental procedure done for one of our dogs and we appreciative that the quotes given to us were accurate. During covid they're keeping everyone safe by getting you to call when you arrive and answering questions outside. We will continue to take our two Dogs here and recommend this place for your family pets.

Dr.Nick & his team are amazing. Aside from regular checkups, I had to get dental surgery done due to a broken tooth. I couldnt of left him in better hands. They ensured all my questions were answered prior to… him going in & afterwards. The follow up from the vet tech during the surgery put me at ease. You can tell they genuinely care for the animals they treat & for their owners.
