After being in a local pet facility for a few days our Molly had kennel cough and was very sick for a few weeks. Called the Airport Animal Hospital and Dr Sing performed a thorough examination, gave me antibiotics and told me to come back in a few weeks and at that time said she was doing well and did not charge me for that visit. Now Molly is back being the pet we all love. As for me that is one of the best caring Hospital and staff in the area, bare none.

I am relatively new to this veterinary clinic from the past year. I rescued 4 cats last year and Airport Animal Hospital took us in as patients. To date we have spayed both girls and neutered the boy. Then the boy had to undergo a serious abdominal surgery to retrieve a blockage. The same Vet did them all. He did a remarkable job on all of my pets. I am so pleased with the outcome. He saved my cat's life. While my boy cat was recovering, we didn't know if he would live or die, the support tech called me every evening to update me for the 3 nights he stayed in hospital. She was so caring and thoughtful. For all the surgeries, my cats all recovered very quickly, and without any problems. I am thoroughly impressed with this Vet and the other. For the general care the support staff were attentive throughout for each cat's care. I received followup calls from the staff for all of the surgeries and other treatments, including their shots, and for mites. My boy cat had mites in his ears and the other Vet who looked after him did a great job. He was engaged, gentle, and knowledgeable. I am so impressed with the care we have received from all of the staff at this veterinary hospital. I highly recommend them.

Extremely difficult to get through to reception-- phone rings off the hook. Front staff are frequently unfriendly and dismissive. Some Vets disregard what you have to say about your pets symptoms resulting in prescribing the wrong medication and having to return for another costly visit. Bottomline: My opinion only, making money comes first before your pets health.

I was previously with another animal hospital and my vet retired. I was not impressed with her replacement. I started searching elsewhere and came across the Airport animal hospital. They took me in and Dr Bassi and his staff treated me real well. They took care of my Labrador retriever until her last days which occurred in February 2024. I found Dr Bassi to be fair in price and a very kind and considerate man. I would recommend this hospital and their staff. If I get another pet later in life, that is where I would go hands down.

I have been called many things in my life but never did I think I would ever be called a racist. Today after waiting an hour at Airport Animal Hospital. The manager came into the room and told me Dr. Singh refuses to be in the same room as me because of the previous appointment I had with Bella and the comment I made. Bella does not to well with unknown men especially men with hats. Dr Singh was wears a turban and I wasn’t sure how to refer to it , so I said she probably doesn’t like your headdress, this comment was after I explained the men scenario to him. So now I am without a vet as I make him feel uncomfortable and he will not see my animals any longer. Needless to say it was on my radar to start looking for another vet, just hard to find anyone local taking new clients. I have spent well over 6,000 in vet bills in the last 6 months and Everytime I go there, it seems like they are constantly pushing for more treatment plans to make more money. They have no bedside manners. There seems to be minimal upkeep inside. And the wait times are insane. There has not been an appointment where I was not sitting in the waiting room for well over an hour everytime. I left today feeling discouraged and to be honest also angry that he is insinuating I’m racist. Everyone that knows me knows that my son is biracial and I am the first one to stand up and defend my son when it comes to racism I do not tolerate it. It is literally the last thing on my mind and certainly was not my intent with Dr. Singh.
