The Oaks Veterinary Medical & Referral Centre

Great service and knowledgable staff.

The staff at The Oaks are wonderful. They'll take the time to get to know you and your animals, explain things in great detail, or give you the Cole's notes version if you prefer. They are welcoming, personable, and will never make you feel rushed or that you are taking up too much time. I really appreciate their transparency, their approach to medicine, and most of all, the level of care that they have for their paw-ients.

My experience bringing my pets there has always been an excellent visit.

Friendly staff, and very helpful with any questions or appointment bookings. Had both my cats neutered there and have had no issues at all

After my dog BUDDY fell ill and rapidly deteriorated...I hoped that I would have at LEAST...one last weekend with him or that he might just need some antibiotics or something...I was sooooo wrong.

I did not even know my dog had cancer...and worst...he was dying.

Fluid was filling up his lungs, an x ray and blood test confirmed that he had multiple tumors and he could suffocate or have complications soon.

Wow.

The team at Oaks Veterinary Hospital informed me that his condition was very bad...my options were limited and had risks...my dog was 8 years old but heck...I assumed that I would have many more years with him !

This was not about me.

I needed someone rational to be supportive and kind.

This was not the time for me to be unreasonable or stubborn (I wanted him home...And I know myself...lol)

But I knew very quickly this was not a joke.

The truth was he had cancer. It had spread and fluid had limited his lung capacity to only 25% it would be a matter of time before he died...and possibly in a horrible way or by having complications this possibly while we might not be home...to help.

Veterinarian Rianne Dykstra was very sweet...extremely professional...compassionate... patient friendly...and kind?

I can say the same of the assistant that also helped me that night. Even if I cried and left there without my buddy...they helped my doggy dowg...get to a better place !

I believe...better than this one.

I guess I needed them that night...more than buddy needed me.

Love you buddy !

Cheers my good friend.

But thank you very much to all the wonderful Oaks Team !
