Bowser absolutely loves his visits with Dr.Barboza, she has done amazing work to repair his ulcer and reduce his scaring very thankful for her. Everyone in this building is just so freaking amazing, so welcoming and overall caring with whatever you're in for. There's no doubt in my mind that any animal that walks through those doors are very well taken care of in the hands of this hospital. These are the kinds of people you want doing this job, they love your animals like it was their own and they treat them as such. Can't believe a place with such great people like this exist.

I recently took my dog to Staples Animal Hospital after my vet recommended an eye specialist there, and I couldn't be happier with the experience! From the moment we walked in, the staff was incredibly friendly and welcoming. They took the time to answer all my questions and made sure my dog felt comfortable throughout the visit. The eye specialist was not only knowledgeable but also took great care in explaining the diagnosis and treatment options. You can tell they genuinely care about their patients and their owners. I left feeling reassured and informed about my dog's eye health. I highly recommend Staples Animal Hospital for anyone in need of veterinary care, especially if you’re looking for specialists. Thank you to the entire team for your exceptional service.

Always a pleasure to bring our girls to see the kind staff at staples. We also love that we don’t get any grief for feeding a wholesome raw diet from the doc!

Dr Wang will continuously amaze us with how much care, knowledge, and empathy she brings to her practice. I cannot recommend her enough for cat owners. No need to look further for your cats vet, there is no better! FIP was racking up bills for us and she helped alleviate costs, get us refunds for medication we had purchased elsewhere and thoroughly communicate with us for free over email about any concerns we had/have. Thank you Dr Wang!!

It’s taken me a while to post a review because I had a pretty traumatic experience. My 11.5 year old, 6lb Yorkshire terrier was violently attacked by a Great Dane. She picked her up, raised her over her head and shook her. Then she threw her over my head and my little dog plummeted to the ground. It took me 30 minutes to drive to Staples where they came running when they saw her little blood covered body, open with an 11cm gash covering most of her tiny body. She looked like she had been skinned. They took immediate action and in spite of all the odds that she wouldn’t make it, Dr. Vieira was able to save her life. She needed much more care with specialists after this because of tissue necrosis over a large area. However, if Dr. Vieira and her amazing staff had not taken immediate action, she would not have been able to survive the attack. They were compassionate, kind and very invested in my little girls care. They were also very caring toward me as I was in a very traumatized state of mind after this experience. We managed to avoid having to amputate her leg, I believe mainly because of the swift action of Dr. Vieira and my pup ended up regaining altered use of her leg after all of her muscles had been severed. Dr. Vieira performed a salvage attempt that proved successful. If this hadn’t been done, her leg would have later had to be amputated due to the severing of all of her shoulder muscles. After a lengthy stay at the OVC in Guelph where they took exceptional care of her, we made a surprise visit to Staples and the staff were so welcoming and so happy to see her. She made rounds saying hi to everyone who helped save her life and it was such a lovely reunion. I think it goes beyond my saying, that I would most highly recommend Staples, any and every day.
