Very kind staff. Their bigger facility is spacious. Dr. Douglas is really thorough. I take my senior daughter here for regular check-ups and blood work.

Bowness Vet Clinic, staff, etc - 5/5 Dr. Satnam - 1/5 All the staff are amazing and we’ve always had good experiences here. Other reviews are similar when it comes to their main doctor, Dr. Satnam. Usually another Dr sees us who is amazing, so caring and actually cares to explain what’s going on to you and shows you. We took our cat for his yearly check up and it was Dr. Satnam who saw us. He told us his teeth were horrible and he needed a big dental cleaning ASAP. He pointed to a chart of cat teeth and told us he had the worst category of it, and that he could get an infection and that it could be life threatening if we don’t get him a professional teeth cleaning. We looked in his mouth afterwards and his gums were baby pink (as they should be) not black or yellow like the chart category he pointed to. But because we love our cat very much and I couldn’t stop thinking about it what Dr. Santam said, I got his teeth cleaned at another clinic and both the dentist and the assistant told me he had the cleanest cat teeth and gums they’ve seen in a long long while… and they showed me photos of his pearly whites before the cleaning. So, Dr. Santam just wants to take your money amd uses the love for your pets against you. We don’t come to Calgary often, but when we do we still come here because everyone else is lovely- I just recommend asking for any other Dr that isn’t Dr Santam when booking in. Hope this helps and saves you some $$

Thanks to all the staff that have been caring for our tripawd Aspen! He has had such a rough summer, but thanks to your drive thru injections with Librella, plus the suggestions with Omega oils and glucosamine, Rather than limping on 2 legs, Aspen is running and jumping again! Happy Thanksgiving, and thanks to you all for this gift!!!

This vet is absolutely phenomenal. Prices are reasonable, and once you’re a regular it really does feel like a little family, they’re very kind and treat your pet with love and kindness. My cat recently passed away, and the process of putting her down was well explained and gentle, they even set up a dim lit room with a pillow and a cat tree and everything. I Absolutely recommend going to this vet, and I thank this vet from the bottom of my heart for the endless care for our pets.

I had a very unhelpful and expensive experience here. My cat was showing signs of distress and we didn't know why. We went to this clinic and saw a young female veterinarian. She did an x-ray of my cat's digestive track and a blood panel. She said my cat definitely had a blockage there. There was an option to send the X-ray to a radiologist. I did ask for that and the radiologist said she did not have any obstruction, just a gas bubble. She gave me a wrong diagnosis. Furthermore she did not notice on the blood panel that my cat's kidney numbers were way way out of whack. Luckily I then took her to the 10th Avenue animal hospital where they diagnosed her with extreme dehydration and put her on an IV. So this clinic which calls itself a hospital and is not a hospital at all not only give me a wrong diagnosis but also failed to notice extreme numbers related to her kidneys. I paid $1,300 for this and I'm very angry about that.
