    Veterinary Griffintown made me suffer an extreme scare, cost me a fortune, and put my dog’s life at risk. On June 10th I took my 2 year old Dahschund to the Vet because she was showing signs of pregnancy. I had spoken to the secretary and explained when was the last possible date she could have mated. They informed me that since it had passed 42 days the best/cost effective way to tell that she was pregnant was by conducting a physical exam & x-rays. On that day, my dog went to get an x-ray and the vet comes back saying she is not pregnant. However, the signs were clearly there. She had enlarged breasts, gained weight, exhausted etc. The Vet barely did a physical exam and didn’t show any signs of concern. 

2 weeks later my dog’s water breaks and gives birth at night on our bed. As we didn’t know she was pregnant, we were not prepared. Since we were unsure how many puppies she was going to have we had to run to the emergency hospital the day after. Yet again another vet fee. Veterinary Griffintown showed no signs of concern, they were extremely unresponsive and when we informed them of what had happened no signs of empathy were shown. Do not take your pets to vet Griffintown, they only care about making money & they don’t care about your animals.

    Has been our vet clinic for 5 years from day one when we got our puppy to his last day last week. I usually have excellent service, my Rocky was picky but hated going there due to his anxiety but they always found a solution to his problems with the correct meds and treatments. I wanted to thank the staff for their hard work. His last day was so emotional but the staff took great care of us and our baby.

    Not recommend. Don’t trust your beautiful pets with them, other than giving vaccine. Vet for my two gorgeous Persian cats. One got sick in April this year (2022). Ulcer in his mouth, had to take him to VDM. Did the tests, came back negative for any serious diseases. But the ulcer came back somewhere else in his mouth. Kept taking my beautiful baby to this vet. He was loosing weight. Started at 3.8kg and last visit he was at 2.6kg. Kept telling me it’s allergies. While I was told if the cortisones won’t work it should be FPV and the tooth should be removed. I even told them to remove the tooth. Kept giving my poor baby cortisone, 4 months. No improvement. Took him to another vet, told me decrease the cortisone dose, otherwise his kidney and liver will fail eventually. He did not last that long 🥺💔 Took him last Wednesday, to a cat who is not eating enough they prescribed fungus treatment without a PCR test. He stopped eating after a day that he took the medication. Took him again on Monday, and told them that his gums are turning white. The vet was asking me why is he taking fungus treatment wo test! And that he probably has some untreatable diseases, which they should have tested sooner, suggesting tests now, to see what might be wrong. And none of the outcomes were treatable. Do the test to be at peace, that’s what they told me! I had to put my baby down the day after!💔😭 Never taking my other cat there. Don’t rely on their diagnosis. Find a vet that cares! Which you are not able to find here I lost my baby boy to their carelessness

    We have been going there for almost one year now since we got our puppy. The customer service and the care received are not acceptable considering the fact that you pay for all services provided and it is in fact not a public system. Many times they have an attitude when answering the phone or questions. We tried to remain there because it is a clean clinic close to our home, but we will not return for veterinary care. Vet Dix 30 (Brossard) was wonderful for our dog’s neutering, both in the customer service received, care, and prompt communication with us. For Vet Griffintown, choose another vet, it will be worth it in the long run. I am providing a detailed explanation of the context for the instances where the service was subpar. I apologize for the length of the review. 1) They forgot to call us for 2 puppy vermifuge doses and they forgot to put us on their email list for the standard vermifuge doses (April-December). When I asked how this happened, the technician kindly apologized and said that the vet had put it in her notes to call us but she must have forgotten. When the vet came, she told me: “On va vous les donner les prochaines doses alors faites juste continuer”. There was no apology. 2) Because of COVID we had to drop off our dog for appointments. Now that we have gone to other vets, we enjoy and are thankful for other vets who allow us in the room during the appointment. It's our first dog and a puppy and it makes such a difference. 3) When we pick up our dog after appointments, it is never clear if we can talk to the vet afterwards and no info is provided. When we did talk to her, it was in the middle of the clinic near the entrance (no confidentiality, no sense they are paying attention). One time my partner brought our dog back to the car directly. We realized we were missing a lot of info, he went back in with the dog and asked for the vet. When he pointed politely that he wasn't sure if he could talk to her because the tech hadn’t mentioned we could talk to her, she said: "Ben, je vous parle là maintenant." Again, no apology or acknowledgment of the miscommunication between the team members and with us. 4) Our dog has had 2 episodes over the past 2 months of intense, unexplained diarrhea + vomiting. When I called those 2 times to make sure it was best to go to DMV, they told us they didn't have any openings for emergency appointments and that we should go to 24/7 vet hospitals with a tone and arrogance that would make anyone uncomfortable. No follow-up appointment were offered. 5) For the past 5 days our dog had a red and inflamed ear. When I called to ask for an emergency appointment, they told us they would call back. They called 4.5 hours later at the end of the day, late enough for us to not be able to get another appointment elsewhere. Vet Griffintown left a voice mail saying no medical treatment was needed but an ear cleaner that they can sell us at the store. I called back explaining my dissatisfaction for both the delay in calling back, the communication, and the poor medical advice provided since we had tried already an ear cleaner. They offered an appointment for the next day but we were able to get an appointment at another vet in the evening (during which we obtained medication for otitis requiring urgent treatment). 6) Disappointed by the lack of reliability, I wanted to cancel any upcoming appointments we had. I was put on hold for several minutes, and they finally found our appointments on file after several minutes of searching. They are often inefficient for such a simple task and I encountered this difficulty several times.

    This is a business, not a health care provider. As such, there is little empathy for your animal, especially if it interferes with running the machine. After 6 years with them, when it was time to have my pet euthanized, I was told that there were no slots for 3 weeks. Didn’t ask if she was suffering, didn’t have an emergency slot, and told me they would call back if there was cancellation, as if it were for a check up rather than end of life. It’s a clean place, they sell some nice treats, but they will not stretch themselves even a bit for you or your animal. Hard to get in touch with them, hard to get answers, hard to get help. They are not even good at their own business. Look elsewhere while there’s time.

    Friendly knowledgeable team. Everyone we interacted with appeared to be on the same page and communication was very clear. The clinic was clean, organized, and quiet. My dog genuinely enjoys going to the vet and his experience today was a positive one. Additionally, their prices were very reasonable relative to what we are used to paying for an annual exam and vaccines.

    The vet and vet techs are SO sweet, caring and professional. They answer all my questions and provide thorough explanations to their examinations, vaccines etc. They are very patient and calm with my new puppy and follow up on issues with each visit. I am so happy to have my puppy as their client! :)

    Has been our vet clinic for over five years since we’ve moved to the neighborhood! We’ve had two cats and one cat has passed since of which this clinic did everything we needed to comfort them and us before, during and after her passing. We have had excellent service with our second cat before and since his siblings passing and he is 18 years young! All the techs and vet find solutions to his problems with the correct meds and treatments. We travel with him and they think ahead to provide the meds with paperwork we need. The doc will make recommendations which is her job and it’s our choice to take them. We have always proactively asked questions of almost every aspect of their care which is our job as well as confirming any financial aspects before proceeding. Honestly because we have and do continue trusting you guys with our babies we truly want to thank the staff for their hard work.

    I am two chihuahuas mother. They are sassy and aggressive. However, the vets and staffs have been very patients with my kids. And one of my biter chihuahua even fall in love with these ladies whom have been nice to him. He also has a nickname within this circle” lover boy.” Here is the point, everytime when I have issue with them, the staffs always been helpful, accessible and patiently to find solution for my sick kid. And I would like to highlight a staff, her name is Maude, she is an angel align with the vets in there. She seems very knowledgeable about the incident of what happened to my lover boy, etc. Explained to me and provided me the super clientele service this morning. She is an angel for me. Again, the other staffs are super nice as well. I just not good remember the names. Love the owner( the vet), and the other vet too! They always caring and sharing the pet care knowledge with us.I would give a five ⭐️!

    Great establishment, super friendly and helpful staff. Easy to find parking and a convenient location. All my 5 animals (4 dogs 1 cat) have been cared for by them. I would not go anywhere else.

    Great experience; friendly and knowledgeable staff. I really appreciate the vet in charge - who I believe is the clinic’s founder - addressing all my questions and concerns. They care about their clients’ satisfaction (and our pets’ health!) and address any issues in a timely manner. I will be coming back! my poodle loves them too.

    I was skeptical going in here based on the reviews, but I had the exact opposite experience! Went in for a quick nail trim, my dogs dewclaws were overgrown. Extremely friendly staff, they took their time with my pet and were professional.

    I want to leave my comment here and say thank you to all the staffs. Years have been with them, they took care of my two cats, neutralization, vaccine, tests, one of my baby had a serious blood urinary problems and they took care of her with a surgery took place in Dix30 in a timely manner, and financially reasonable; older cat had once not eating for long time, they also took emergency immediately. Vétérinaire Griffintown treats my cats as family member of us and communicate efficiently, receptionist is always passionate and doctors. It hard to say goodbye since we left Montreal to far away, they helped me on profile transferring in 48 hours. I hope I can meet another vet like you guys, hopefully.

    I had a great experience at this clinic, my dog Jack was well treated. Doctor Tetreault was able to quickly diagnose the problem that the previous clinic I visited was unable to find.

    Called to make my first appointment, not only do they require you to give a $50 deposit but are asking for the full credit card information over the phone including verification code and address, putting you at risk. Their response "everyone does it". I offered to pay when I'm there but they refused. Not a good start. I shouldn't need to put my financial security in the hands of a vet assistant to get my puppy vaccinated. Also the lack of willingness to work with patients is a bad sign, can't recommend.

    Great clinic, especially Dr Courchesne and his most professional team! Even more, the team is great, even with a sensitive/stressed or grumpy dog. So recommended.

    Geneviève has been my little dog's veterinarian for 7 years. I know that I can trust him and that my pet is always in very good hands. She will definitely be the veterinarian of all my next animals! ☺️

    We have been going to this clinic since adopting our dog 4 years ago. We always take care of Théodore. The staff is knowledgeable and accommodating. I completely trust the veterinarians at the clinic. I live in Rosemont and I find that the clinic is worth the trip.

    This has been our vet since they opened up and never been disappointed. The staff is competent, friendly and most of all caring. The prices are also really reasonable.
