    My experience with this vet hospital has not been good at all, despite the fact that it’s a relatively well-known place. I was there to provide help for a stray dog that had been hit by a car. First I requested an ambulance but they told me they didn’t have any and me and some other people had to transport her in a car. When we ended up there they did not want to provide care for the dog because she was stray, which to some degree I understand, but a frequent client of that hospital intervened and they accepted to see the dog. They did an X-ray and found out that the hip bone was broken. They also noticed that the dog had also given birth recently and had puppies. They only did and injection to reduce the pain and the vet assured us that nothing would happen to the dog and that it would heal on it’s own. We asked again to make sure everything was ok because we were worried for the puppies as well and the vet just said:” With this injury, this dog can live 80 more years. Nothing will happen”. We sheltered the dog during the night and provided water and food and in the morning we found out she had died. We asked other vets about the possible cause and they all said that she probably died from internal bleeding and that it’s a procedure to administer IV fluids in cases of fractures to prevent the inner bleeding and blood clotting. We lost the mom but tried to find the puppies by looking around the area for them but were unable to do so and most probably they died of starvation. The vets neglecting and lack of knowledge cost many lives and I feel like people need to know about this so it never repeats again.

    This place is great :-) They have a very good system in place and all the doctors seemed competent. We had a kitten we adopted from the street that developed a cyst and needed anti biotics. This required shots over a period of three days. The problem went away and each doctor did great when handling our kitten. We had went to a different hospital first and had a bad experience before coming here. The prices were also more than reasonable. Thank you :-)

    While it may be a good place for your cat and dog, it is not the spot to bring rabbits. Our rabbit ended up dying the day after the neutering surgery. After getting a new rabbit and having the surgery done in Greece, the pre-op and post op experience was totally different. Some instructions provided by the Tirana Vet hospital like getting the rabbit to fast prior to surgery goes completely against the protocol. While we cannot say for sure what caused the inhabituel death of our rabbit, we know that the hospital is at best inexperienced and at worst negligent in their procedures. I would stay away, there is a new vet clinic that is going to open soon specializing in “exotic” animals that hopefully will be able to fill the gap here in Tirana.

    This place deserve more than 5 stars! Very kind and professional vets, that care about the animals, and are easy to talk to! These people deserve all the thanks and love. They helped us adopt our sweet dog we found abandoned in Albania and made it possible to get her home with us. We are all so forever grateful for the good experience and kind help we received. ❤️

    They are totally not worth it. My cat died there because they didn’t do their job right . They couldn’t even clean him when my cat was alive or just pet him. Don’t trust your pets to stay there or else they will be unhappy and when they most need you from sadness you can’t be there. Totally irresponsible and very expensive.

    Hospital driven only to earnings. They were the only place that has glucantime(an antibiotic) that treates very bad skin desease in dogs and they even diagnosed the dog themselves one month ago and I called them two days ago after I saw the post in an animal aid page and they told me I could get it in their clinic. When I went there they told me they didn't have it just because I didn't bring the dog there for them to get some extra money for hospitalizing the dog. The dog is in another city far away from Tirana. Now I cant treat the dog and cant find the antibiotic anywhere and her skin is horrible

    If it wasn't for Emre, one of the vets that works there, I wouldn't even bother to take my cat at Vet Hospital. Not only have I heard negative and bad comments from others, but I also experienced it myself, twice. Emre was not there and I have spoken with 2 other vets, different times and not only they were extremely RUDE, but they didn't even bother to see my cat. Another day I had a rescue dog with me that I was supposed to leave it there for the night, and even though all the expenses were covered one of the vets touched the dog like it was a garbage and said 'what's this, I can't do anything about it' The dog had broken his leg. HOW CAN YOU NOT DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT 😠

    (Translated by Google) Zero competence and professionalism. Compassion and empathy zero. Two animals have died of their ignorance and incompetence. My cat was fine when they sent me a non-phone message that the cat had died. What kind of behavior is this ?! They look at the money, they don't look at the innocent creatures that need the cure. I do not advise at all. If you have pets for cures please do not send them there. I'm not talking about the high prices they have (300 € an operation) but the incompetent people. I can't barely answer the phone. Disappointed to the max ... (Original) Kompetence dhe profesionalitet zero. Dhembshuri dhe empati zero. Me kane vdekur dy kafshe nga injoranca dhe inkompetenca e tyre. Macja me thonin eshte mire, kur me dergojne mesazh jo telefonate qe macja ka vdekur. Cfare sjellje eshte kjo?! Ata shikojne paret nuk shikojn krijesat e pafajshme qe kane nevoje per kure. Nuk e keshilloj faree. Nese keni kafshe per kura ju lutem mos e dergoni aty. Nuk flas per cmimet e larta qe kane( 300€ nje operim) por njerez te pa afte. I mer ne telefon mezi te pergjigjen. E zhgenjyer ne maksimum...

    I took my cat there as a severe case, asking for the best doctor they have and explaining the history in details. The 'public figure' doctor did not do any further examination (like echography) and prescribed some medicines telling me that he can handle the case but a month was needed for that. The cat was not eating and when i wrote to him, he was replying like bothered and without empathy. The cat was deteriorating and only when she was in the last moments he decided to do an echography (before he did only some blood tests) to explain what was happening. Once telling me that it is her last moments and on the other hand telling me he will go on with the therapy. And when i was asking him very kindly about the situation and what and if anything was done wrong he attacked me in a very ugly way telling me that i was blaming him and that i wanted to play games....I was shocked twice: once bcoz i was not understanding how my cat was dying so quickly when one day ago he said overall things were stable and second how a doctor to whom i was talking very kindly and in pain for my situation was reacting like that in that specific moment...when i told him that it was a poor behaviour from his side he started saying sorry sorry...for sure they neglected many things and took it slowly whereas a more vigilante reaction was needed immediately. Dedication and professionalism are missing there (referring to my case) and in general nowadays. You think you are choosing the best place for your pet but only time shows you the quality of the place...Try to check carefully before taking your pet to those places...they say it hurts them too but it is not true...fake smiles without real dedication...but they did not charge me the last day when i left (some other people could ask for money too even in that situation)...

    The Vet Hospital saved the life of my puppy with their prompt and expert care, when he showed signs of parvovirus. Another vet at a different clinic, closer to my home, had told me to go back another day (which I believe would have been too late), so I went by taxi late in the evening to the animal hospital, where he was immediately put on IV fluids and kept under 24 hour care through the very touch and go five days of this terrible virus. He was kept in isolation as it is contagious, but I could phone for information and was always met with friendly and kind honest information about his state, in English. He made an incredible recovery and is now happy at home. I was prepared for a huge bill as I know it is expensive to treat but it was much less than I expected - very, very reasonable. During the time he was in their care I read A LOT about parvo and can see they did exactly what he needed every step of the way. There is the second dog I care about the Vet Hospital saved when other vets didn't. She is an extraordinary street dog beloved by her community whom had run into trouble. They came out at night and collected her even though she was snappy in her pain. It is a private hospital frequented by soft pedigrees but they handled her brilliantly without flinching. She left fully healed, stronger, fitter and friendlier than I have ever known her to be. The costs were cheaper than a usual vet as I didn't get extra charges for being English, which seems to happen in Albania quite often. In fact I had a discount for helping a stray. Such a very fair, friendly and professional service with the best possible animal care at the heart of what they do. They are right by the grand park, so even living across town it's a good location for visiting your dogs when possible, and taking them for gorgeous walks whilst they recover. They also get walked whilst staying there; the street dog was much better on the lead when I collected her than when I left her. I am happy to know this place exists and highly recommend them.

I still don’t understand why analysis of our car where twice worse as we leave our cat only for 5 hours in hospital and came for echo at 2 p.m. Too much animals, too much flow!

    Every person that I have met tells me that the veterinary clinic that they use is just as good (or better) than Vet Hospital Tirana. They are out of their minds. Vet Hospital Tirana treats my dogs better than the nurses treat me at the human hospital. Vet Hospital Tirana regularly keep my puppies healthy and occasionally has to put one back together again when he inevitably gets himself injured. The staff is always friendly, professional and nurturing. Don't trust your family's best friend to anyone else.

    Excellent vets, best in the area ! Have been six times now. Really great staff (receptions, vets, nurses), helpful and professional, very caring and interested . Clean and tidy place, easy to access. Would definitely recommend it. Average price for these services (not cheap, not expensive).

    The best veternian hospital in Albania. The veterinarian and nurses were very professional, accommodating and caring. The hospital was very clean, neat and warm for the animals. I took a stray kitten in that was abused severely and when I brought him in the vets knew exactly what to do. Their feedback and communication was spectacular. I am in awe with the service, care and welcoming experience that this hospital provided. I recommend anyone who has a pet or sees an animal in danger to bring them here for care and security.

    I was forced to leave Albania on short notice earlier in the year and boarded my pet at the Cat Hotel. I ended up being out of Albania much long than anticipated and Vet Hospital Tirana took excellent care of my cat the entire time. I am grateful for their flexibility and love of animals. Strongly recommend.

    my dog had leishmania and they didn’t know how to cure him they gave him a lot of antibiotics which made his liver in a very bad condition. although i told them that my dog had leishmania because i knew the illness very well they didn’t listen and only told us that my dog had that illness three days before he passed away. Im disgusted and i would not recommend it at all. i stayed there for almost a month going two to three times a day to cure him and they didn’t even know how to put a bandage and keep the dog calm at most times. no empathy for the animals.

    I am sure they are doing great work and are amazing at it. I joined another VET in Tirana after some strange comments form a doctor and not having the parvovirus test kit for the dog available at the time. Anyhow, the shop there looks good and I know plenty friends who go there with their pets.

    Dr. Erko and the rest of the staff – Dr Marvin, Dr. Martin and Dr. Emri at Vet Hospital Tirana are absolutely phenomenal! I went there with an emergency. My poor little dog, Bruno, began suffering from unexplained gastrointestinal issues. Dr. Erko went out of his way to find out what was going on and correctly diagnosed Bruno medical condition right away. Bruno had a surgery for an intestinal obstruction caused by a strangulated hernia. All the doctors made me feel very secure that my Bruno was going to be fine. They were so sweet, friendly, knowledgeable, and kind. All procedures were explained to me and my husband in detail and all of our questions were answered. Dr. Erko and Dr. MArvin were very thorough in their explanations which I really appreciated. Everything they did for my baby was necessary. I can easily say they saved Bruno’s life Words cannot express how thankful I am for the great care and the professionalism of this veterinary clinic If you have pets this is definitely the place to go! Love, love, love this place! Thank you Dr. Erko and his wonderful staff

    We can not thank Vet Hospital Tirana enough for constant help and excellent service🙏🏼🙏🏼 My boyfriend and I arrived in Albania on holiday only to find two puppies with broken legs and it all started from there. Dr. Marvin and his team have been instrumental in providing life saving surgeries for the puppies, vital check-ups and performing all vaccinations and blood testing we needed to help these puppies travel to a safe home.❤️ Rescuing puppies from the streets and getting them to a safe home is a lot harder than we expected but whenever we had a question or needed help, Vet Hospital Tirana was there to assist us. Because of them our puppies are healthy, safe and are walking and running like they never had injuries. If you have animals in Albania, only trust Vet Hospital Tirana with their care, they will do the best job. We are forever grateful❤️

    On October 16, 2023, my beloved nine-year-old cat named Martina sadly passed away due to hepatic lipidosis. This condition resulted from a severe and continuous weight loss, which was a consequence of my inability to find a specific type of cat food here in Albania, where I reside. This situation led to Martina progressively losing her appetite. When I realized that my cat was rapidly losing weight and not eating as usual, I decided to seek assistance from the team at the "Animal Veterinary Hospital" led by Dr. Luiza Hykaj. Initially, I thought that Martina's loss of appetite might be attributed to the presence of a mother cat with kittens, which I had rescued from the streets and were awaiting adoption. However, I had taken strict measures to keep these cats separate from Martina. One day, Martina produced very dark urine, prompting me to have it analyzed at a laboratory in Valona. This test revealed a liver issue. I shared all these details with Dr. Luiza Hykaj, who recommended two blood tests, for which I paid 100 euros, including the "visit" (which essentially amounted to a blood draw). Subsequently, the doctor suggested a hepatic ultrasound, suspecting a possible liver cancer or a viral disease, although I reiterated that my cats had never come into contact with each other. However I would have had to go to Tirana because her office did not have an ultrasound machine. I was advised to administer intravenous fluids (IV) to Martina. However, due to my temporary lack of cash and the clinic's lack of a card payment terminal, the first IV was not administered, even though I was scheduled to return to pick up a special Royal Canin food for cats with liver issues and a liver medication. Unfortunately, I was not provided with detailed instructions on how to correctly administer the IV saline solution. I believed that the food and medication would be available the following day, on Thursday, September 7, but they were only delivered on Saturday. Meanwhile, I continued to take Martina for daily IV treatments in Vlorë, which proved to be ineffective. Upon our return to the clinic to collect the food and medication on Saturday, Dr. Hykaj was surprised that we had not brought Martina back to her who previously “diagnosed” her disease. In reality, no clear diagnosis had ever been provided. ONLY AFTER THREE DAYS did the doctor recall that cortisone needed to be added to the IV, providing a kind of dosage. In the meantime, I asked a friend to book a hepatic ultrasound at the Vet Hospital clinic in Tirana, but this appointment could only be scheduled for the following Tuesday, September 12. On that date, the ultrasound and additional blood tests were performed for a total cost of 82 euros, and the diagnosis of hepatic lipidosis was finally confirmed. During this visit, the veterinarian who examined Martina explained that the "medication" previously provided by Dr. Hykaj was, in reality, just a simple food supplement. Martina was admitted for the necessary treatment for her condition. Despite the dedicated care and attention from the veterinarians in Tirana and the improvement in her liver function, Martina sadly passed away on Saturday, September 16, due to heart failure. This tragic event was a result of the delayed administration of appropriate treatment, attributable to the clinic's superficiality and inadequacy at the Animal Veterinary Hospital in Fier.

    The best animal hospital at Tirana! My dog was infected with parvovirus, he was hospitalized for one week at Vet Hospital, I could not thank enough all the staf from receptionists to doctors who were very friendly and kind to us! They did all the medications he needed and in the end my dog made it and came back home safe & healthy! 100% recommended, you will not find better hospital in Tirana who offers you all the necessary conditions and fantastic service! I will always choose Vet hospital for the care of my dog! Special thanks to Doctor Emre ( Hugo loves u)

    (Translated by Google) Thanks to vet hospital for free services and checks. All the staff are very understanding to be involved with Emre. I thought it was a place in Albania. It's not too far away, but you need to go to your table car. Cleanliness is very good. The prices of the products sold on the market are expensive but I think they are professional products. If you have pets, or if you see a needy street animal, I would advise you to take it here without hesitation (Original) Ucretsiz hizmet ve kontrolleri icin vet hospital’a tesekkur ediyorum. Emre bey dahil olmak uzere tum personel cok anlayisli. Arnavutlukta boyle bir yer olduguna sasirdim. Konum olarak cok uzak degil ama tabiki sahsi arabanizla gitmeniz gerek. Temizlik cok iyi. Iceride satilan urunlerin fiyatlari bayagi pahali ama profesyonel urunler oldugunu dusunerek hak veriyorum. Evcil hayvaniniz varsa, veya bakima muhtac bir sokak hayvani gorduyseniz cekinmeden buraya goturmenizi tavsiye ederim

    I was going to relocate my dog; I started the process and everytime I was taking appointment. The day my dog needed to give blood for the titer test they sent us back. I got so furious; a family member took an unpaid leave, my dog got so stressed going there and they said oh no we can’t , not even sorry it’s our mistake. Same people I took the appointment over the phone. Not to mention the looks they give you when you enter, like you’re not welcome, no matter how much money you spend there. I asked them what documents do I need and where I could get them. They had no clue, I found it unbelievable tho and after i saw the veterinarian helping other people to get the documents. Did they get any money under the table maybe, this is how it works in there to get stuff done. I just needed to know where to go as I lived outside all my life. Not sure why do they make your life so difficult, they said I can’t travel for 2-3 months after I get the titer tests result which was not true, I wouldn’t have wasted so much time if those girls didn’t give me wrong info.

I suggest it strongly and please do not hesitate to contact me in mssng for any question you may have or advice you may need.

    The best place in town to take your pet wether looking for lifesaving treatment or a "day at the spa". The vets at Vet hospital Tirana truly cares about your animal and I have always felt that I as an owner and more importantly, my animals were treated with respect - so much that instead of trying to do surgery on my old dog, I was recommended to go abroad to a clinic that was better suited to treat old pooches! Lastly they have fair prices and as an expat here, I finally don't feel like I'm paying more just because of that. I can only recommend the vets and the hospital!

    This vet hospital saved my dog and made possible that she can live a second life now. Back in June/July of this year our 14yo female dog Bianka started showing symptoms and behaviors that she was really sick. She was being aggressive with everyone, hiding around the house especially in the bathroom, would refuse to go out, overall was extremely heartbreaking. We saw that her tooth gums were degrading and thought that was the problem. When we took her to the hospital we decided to go through with the tooth cleaning even tho it was risky because she was in a lot of pain. As we did a check up to ensure that she is healthy enough to go through with the surgery we discovered that Bianka was in the first stages of hydrometra and also her mammary tumors have been growing due to the womb sickness. Going back and forth a lot with the vets about this surgery, since Bianka is a 5kg dog and 14yo her going through anesthesia has a lot of risk at the time was like 70% chance or survival. The vet told us that the womb sickness would kill her in a few months and if she does the operation later the chance of survival would lower drastically. We asked almost every vet in tirana about the case to get a few extra perspectives and almost all said this dog will die and there is no way to save her, no one in tirana could handle this case. We even looked for opportunities to take her to France out of desperation. So Bianka 14yo poodle mix, had to had removed her uterus, the bigger mammary tumors and have her tooth cleaned. In the end we decided to go with vet hospital and dr Emre. We decided to split the procedures in two, first do the uterus and mammary tumors, then her tooth clean up. Dr. Emre handled the whole case. On the day of the operation the vet saw it fit to do all the procedures at once, and Bianka successfully made it. The recovery for her went extremely quick. We took her home after the operation so she wouldn’t feel stressed but would take her to the vet two times a day for her to take painkillers and antibiotics. By the fifth day bianka was running and was her old self again. Now it has been 5 months since the procedure and we couldn’t be more happy. She it thriving and living extremely comfortably, her fur grew back and even her eye health has improved something that the hydrometra really damaged. She is an old dog and we dont expect her to live forever but I think she after this she has a few more good years left. The most important is that the chance was worth it, the doctors were great and handled my dog perfectly. Now bianka lives in comfort, without any pain and honestly is the best she has been in the past year. Here I put a few pics of bianka before and now after the surgery to get the idea. If you have a dog with similar health issues I would recommend this hospital. Keep in mind that even though bianka had these three issues she was in really good overall health for a dog her age. This is the only hospital that could take her and did an amazing job. Other clinics told us nothing could be done. If you have a dog In similar circumstances I highly recommend to go through with the procedure and trust this hospital.

    Excellent staff, very caring and very responsible... Unfortunately, my kitten (3 months old) fell from the 9th floor whilst playing late in the evening in a metal structure. I chose Vet Hospital(which offers service 24/7), the staff was very caring. They did a Xray, treated the cat with all necessary supplements, pain killers and they kept it with oxygen therapy. Despite the awful stage and the damage my feline had in the lungs, they took care for it non stop for six days. I could call in the middle of the night, very early in the morning and they were willing to inform me in details about its stage... They gave 100% so that my feline could stay with us. They also wanted to take care of the deceased cat, but we decided to take care on our own. Despite the unfortunate situation my feline was in, due to severe injuries in the organs, I totally reccomend the hospital, especially Doc. Marvin for the humanity and care shown.... Honestly, I don't think you'll ever find a better service in Albania and they also have very reasonable prices....Plus they offer a service 24/7 and they don't close the door at 4:00p.m... Thanks to everyone at Vet Hospital for their service... I bet Cesare sends its blessings from above too 🙏🏻💜

😠 Doctor and non-professional staff. I had a very bad experience with my cat that died due to the indifference of the staff of this hospital. Environment with unhygienic and bad conditions, it does not deserve to stay open as long as it does not have these conditions and above all a professional staff...
