Services
Hpital Vtrinaire Gnral has the well-being and health of your pet at heart. Whether you book an appointment for a regular check-up, a dermatological issue or an eye problem, our team is there to provide quality veterinary care at our clinic in Montreal. In an added effort to provide your pet with quality care, we offer pet dental services in our veterinary office in Montreal.
Pets age faster than humans. While their lives progress more quickly, their serious medical conditions do too. Our veterinary clinic offers annual pet wellness exams that can help detect serious medical conditions and allowing our facility to treat them before their status becomes unmanageable.
In seeing your veterinarian annually, you have the opportunity to discuss your pet's future health outlook, and ask questions about any existing conditions.Prior to your pet's wellness exam, note any severe changes that have occurred with your pet including: vomiting, diarrhea, coughing, weight gain/loss, excessive thirst, or increased aggression.

In an effort to help your pet live a healthy life, we provide spay and neuter services. Choosing to spay or neuter your new pet is one of the most responsible decisions you can make as a pet owner. Spaying and neutering pets is estimated to add years to your pet's life in decreasing or eliminating their chances of getting certain cancers; it also helps decrease the amount of animals in shelters and the number of euthanized pets each year.
If you're planning a vacation and can't bring your family pet along, we offer safe, reliable pet boarding services in Montreal. With highly trained and knowledgeable staff, your pet will receive the quality care that they deserve. Whether you need overnight boarding or pet daycare, our facility can accommodate your pet no matter their size, age, or breed.
Other than bringing your pet in for a routine check-up or vaccinations in order to prevent health issues, there are many reasons why you should seek medical attention for your pet. If you are unsure about what is going on with your pet, it is best not to wait. We are ready for your call and we will make time to see your furry loved one as quickly as possible!

I did not have a good experience with this vet. I came to get my cat checked out because he has a cold and his eyes have been running. I waited 2 hours and 30 mins for the vet to speak to me for exactly 3 minutes. I spent more time speaking with one of the nurses explaining the symptoms. To make it even worse, when I attempted to ask a question, the vet rudely interrupted me by saying "I already told you everything, I don't have anything else to add". He prescribed appetite inducers which I received from the receptionist, with no plan of action should the medication not be helpful. The two stars

I was able to book an appointment quickly and everyone from the receptionist to the vet techs to (and especially) Dr. Lee were kind, caring, and patient with my tears and obsessive worry for my dog. Dr. Lee recommended 3 courses of action for me to choose from, from least to most aggressive. I went with the middle option which was to get diagnostics and start antibiotics just in case.
The results came back quickly, and Dr. Lee called me promptly with the results and even sent me a copy of the lab report.
The results showed that the growth was benign. I asked if they thought a repeat of the labs

Waited over an hour to see for ear infection. Furthermore, they put the wrong information on the medication where I was giving my dog medication to the wrong ear. When I called 3 days after noticing no improvement, had to leave a message with no callback. I had to call again and then they checked and said it was mislabeled. No one apologized whatsoever... I wasted medication, money, and our time PLUS my poor dog suffered for more days. Would not recommend. Sorry.

HVG have been my go-to for veterinary care for my 6 year old cat with urinary issues. They're prompt with appointment times and maintain a thorough record.
Also, when it comes to boarding, I can think of no better place than one that knows my cat's health, amongst staff that love and adore animals! I came back from a 10 day vacation to find a content cat with shiny fur!

The vet service is good, I don't have anything to say about it.
However, DO NOT use their food subscription service.
I had two deliveries so far and both went wrong. The first one was just too long to find my package, that's ok but boring.
The second, they just don't have my package, the tracking is broken, and the girl at the register bluntly told me that "maybe I already took the package", implying both that I was trying to defraud them, and that they do not have a proper system to track who took it's package.
Canceled the subscription on the spot, still furious about it. Hopefully my cat

Terrible experience today. I was shocked at the bill that I received for my kitten. I waited for almost two hours since my scheduled appointment for my sick kitten. Vet did not even consult me for what expensive procedure they did to my kitten without my consent. Ended up with a massive bill in the end. I wouldn't recommend going here solely because the vet will do whatever they want without telling you the actual problem is. And then just charge you with a massive bill.

Caring, knowledgeable and all round wonderful staff!
I had a very poorly 13 week old kitten with a very sick tummy. They were able to see us as an emergency and treated my furbaby, Chekov, with love and dignity.
They were very good at communicating all the requirements for medications and took the time to show us how to administer it correctly rather than shove us out the door with a bunch of instructions.
Chekov is already looking and feeling much better and is ready to infiltrate the yarn store! thank you all for taking such good care of him!

I went there as I had an urgent matter with my dog, it was my first visit but it won't be my last. Dr Lee is very knowledgeable and caring. She gave me all the information I needed and was very honest about what I should and shouldn't do. This made me especially comfortable as I could clearly see that they are not in it for the money, but very much so for the well being of our furry friends. I also received a call within a few days to check up on my dog and how she was feeling. I wish I had found this place earlier. Very happy with them. All the staff is very pleasant as well !

We have had to visit the clinic on a few occasions in the past 5 months, which included a routine check-up for our dog and a VERY serious health risk to our cat. On all our visits the staff were professional and courteous. The clinical care they provided was second to none and the compassion they showed was so heart-warming. Thank you Dr. Banon, Leora,and the entire team at HVG — you are amazing!!😊

It's been a pretty tough couple of months for our little fella, but dr. Banon and the entire Hopital Veterinaire General MB crew were there to take amazing care of him and support us every step of the way.
We were incredibly lucky to get to this clinique back in August and I think we wouldn't have made it without your help, guys. At some point, it felt that this is a bit too much and we were about to give up, but you helped us get through this and Basyan is healthy and lively again! Thank you very much for this!!!
P.S: We'll get back for Basyan's dental care sometime next year :)

Dr Banon has cared for my 3 dogs for 13 years. He and his staff are amazing. I also board my dogs here very frequently- you won’t find a more caring animal hospital. What’s more, they do a lot of pro-bono work to care for lost and homeless animals, nurturing them back to health and then finding forever homes for them.

I have been bringing my cat Wilson here for 5 years. In all this time, I have never been disappointed and can confidently say that Dr. Banon and Dr. Desjardins are both passionate about the health of their patients. They take the time to answer any questions I might have (I have many) and if for whatever reason they need to rush to another appointment, their veterinary technicians are equally as wonderful and attentive. I recently had to bring Wilson in for dental scaling. He unfortunately is prone to dental issues, so he required the surgery. I walked away paying a bill that is relative to a surgery
