I highly recommend this team for your animals eye care needs! Dr Gavin Kennard and his team are the best!! Dr Kennard performed cataract surgery on my 9 year old dog Sammie. They came on quickly and Sammie was blind and running into things. Dr.Kennard is a straight shooter and an expert in this field. I left with all the information to make my decision and what the risks were. The surgery was a success and Sammie can see again!! I will be forever grateful to Dr Kennard and his entire team. They are the most kind and caring people you will ever meet. Sammie and I thank you all from the bottom of our hearts 🙏❤️

I can't recommend Drs Norman and Roy enough!!! My horse had a very serious eye issue which ended up needing surgery. It was a horrible situation but knowing I had Dr. Norman in charge made it so much better. She is amazingly knowledgeable and compassionate. She had even done this surgery on her own horse, which helped me through this. They were easy to contact when needed. The surgery was very successful, and my horse’s eye is doing great. I can't forget the amazing staff, very helpful and supportive!

Dr. Kennard is great. He has been taking care of our dog Ryno's eye for a few years. It progressively got worse due to a tumor behind the eye. We had the surgery to remove the eye and all went very well. The whole staff are professional and caring with our boy. Highly recommend.

Called to get my boxer in for her eye. They didn’t have an apt until 1.5 week later then I called. So I booked it. They called the next day and asked how my boxer was doing, also asked to send photos so Dr. could see the eye and give me some idea on what to do in the meantime. Told me what drops to get and also medicine until I could see them. My daughter had to take her to apt, She said they were very friendly and helpful. Wish I could have got in sooner because of infection that was only negative I can say about them. Because eye got way worse in the meantime. And no other optometrist was available, was around Christmas. Otherwise was great. I would highly recommend.

We really have enjoyed our visits to the Eye Care for Animals Clinic. The Doctors and Staff have provided excellent care, and love, for our Benjamin. Just a wonderful group here, and I definitely would recommend the Happy Valley Rd. location for your furry friends too. 5/5 score, and many, many thanks! Benjamin is doing great.
