Durham Veterinary Clinic
When you come to Durham Veterinary Clinic, we will care for your pet like the cherished family member that it is. Operating as a small animal (i.e., dogs and cats) clinic since 1982, the team at Durham Veterinary Clinic takes the health of your pets seriously. Living in a small town and offering a cozy, small-town feel, we know how important it is for both you and your pet to be treated like part of our family.

With us, you know that we will always do our best to give the highest level of care possible. As you learn more about us, you'll find that we are sincere about offering a caring and inviting environment for all pets. We can provide you with professional advice on nutritional counselling, vaccinations, medications, and more for your pet.
Services
As a full-service animal hospital, Durham Veterinary Clinic accepts both emergencies as well as less urgent medical, surgical, and dental cases. To make sure we can provide the best care possible to these cases, we have Dr. McCleary on our team to apply his 24+ years of clinical and emergency experience.
Durham Veterinary Clinic is proud to provide a team of caring individuals to help the residents and pets around Bowmanville, Ontario. Dr. Robert McCleary graduated from Ontario Veterinary College in Guelph in 1994. He was raised on a farm near Campbellford, Ontario. From a young age, Robert has always had a love of animals.
Your dog or cat's care is of the utmost importance to everyone here at the Durham Veterinary Clinic. We offer a wide range of pet care and veterinary services. No matter what your pet may need, Durham Veterinary Clinic always makes sure to be fully prepared and equipped for everything, from regular health check-ups to emergency services that may include surgeries.
As part of your family, your pet should be given the same quality of medical care as any other family member. And to ensure that you can offer your pet such care, Durham Veterinary Clinic offers a wide variety of services for pet wellness and pet health. Keeping your pet healthy involves keeping their vaccines up to date.
At Durham Veterinary Clinic, we highly recommend that you get your puppy or kitten spayed or neutered when they are around six months of age. This is especially important for female pets as ideally we should spay them prior to their first heat cycle. Before we perform our spaying or neutering procedure, we will recommend pre-anaesthetic bloodwork.

We have 2 of our kitty boys that are taken care of by this veterinary clinic, and we have always been satisfied with the quality of care they receive. They are always great with communication and keep you up to date on your pets shots, health, and any other suggested needs for our pets. Definitely recommend this veterinary clinic!

Best Vet we have been to in over 30 years. Learned more in 10 minute visit then we did at last place after 3 visits. Honest. Very professional. We made the right choice to go here for a second opinion. Your pet will get the best care here.

Recently found out my cat was diabetic and its a bit of a hassle to get started with. The vet tech's here and Dr. McCleary have been extremely responsive and the one who demonstrated how to administer insulin and answered all of our questions was great to work with.
Only complaint I had was a lack of written instruction which hasn't had any negative consequences for us yet and probably won't at all.
Otherwise can definitely attest to the fact that this place cares about patient care over quantity/overselling treatment. Have had consistent follow-ups about our care and only ever paid for our initial

Dr. is very professional, soft spoken very sympathetic, staff are great.
Unfortunately my first visit there was to have my dog (my baby of 16yrs) put to sleep, my heart is broken,
However I will be taking my a new pup there when I find him.

My dog had a tooth that needed to come out. The costumer service was great. After calling 10 other vets in the area they were able to fit us in, they also made the time to do the surgery the same day! Amazing staff, and response. Also very reasonably priced!

This is the only veterinary clinic we take our cats to..they take wonderful care of their patients. They explain everything in great detail and don't push you for unneeded procedures or a 5 minute follow up visit. They value care over money. So nice in this day and age.

We have had nothing but positive experiences with Dr. McCleary. Ive never felt more confident and comfortable with a vet ever. I trust all my animals with him. He’s seen 3/4 of ours and every time is such a great experience! Don’t go to any other vet. He is the best!

I can not say enough good things about this vet clinic. All the staff goes above and beyond for animals you can tell they truly love them. My dog can be a handful sometimes for people but I've never seen him so calm when dealing with people. I would highly recommend

Fantastic clinic and great staff. Dr. Rob McCleary did an amazing work with our two cats and treated them with with literally no stress for them, even for something as scary as an eye drop for our oldest boy. He also takes time to explain what's going on and make sure the follow up is made. Shout out to the amazing team too! I would totally recommend paying a visit to the clinic whenever you have a doubt for your pets!
