Meeting expert on binary, forex like Alice is the best investment I have ever made, I got in contact with her, invested just $600 and I earned $5500 on her platform within a week. I can't explain myself when I saw my profit on my BTC wallet. I appreciate my ma'am. You can invest also at minimum of $500 and get your profit in good amount.

My family has been taking our pets here for generations. Dr. Hunter has always been kind, patient, honest, and professional. Susan at reception is always so sweet and helpful, and makes the process quick and easy. Just yesterday I got to meet Casey the technician who took the time to make sure me and my senior kitty felt comfortable, and that I totally understood my cats health issues, and her surgical procedure and estimate. She was able to draw blood from my cat, who technicians were not able to draw blood from in the past. She even went for a belly rub without hesitation, and my kitty was loving

Shame on you Columbia vet clinic. A gorgeous 8 year old dog with cancerous tumours came to you, and you decided to fix her torn ACL before dealing with her numerous mammary tumours. That dog died today because you told her owners the torn ACL was more important than checking out and dealing with her lumps. The mammary cancer spread to her lungs and she suffered. You would have scammed a beautiful family out of $5000 for nothing- as she would have died during the surgery. I would never trust you with my pets!! SHAME ON YOU!

Dr Hunter and his staff are nothing beyond exceptional. Dr Hunter is very professional and empathetic. I know that my animals are in the best hands when I take them there. My dogs and cat are my children and I would do anything for them, having said that I highly recommend anyone to take their animals to his clinic. 5 stars.

Paul and the staff have always been so good with us and our pets, especially during our recent visits, which sadly ended with having to put our dog down. We appreciate Paul's kindness and sensitivity through the whole process.

I found the Vet. to be very personable and patient with my dog, who was very nervous ; growling, tried to bite , etc. By the end of the visit, the Vet had him sitting at attention and behaving well, despite the poking of needles and prodding of a tender spot. Great service.

This is the only veteran that we will take our pet to see. They have been very good to us and our pets. We have called and been able to be seen with in the next day which is so nice. The people who work there are very friendly and professional as well as helpful. The clinic is always clean.

I've always had a great experience here - the doctor always takes time to explain things and answer any questions, and is the only vet I've found that I can trust with my rabbits. The front desk is accommodating and has fit me in for more urgent issues, and my fur babies always get better quickly.

The front desk girl was okay, but the doctor is extremely insensitive and incredibly rude. He could not care less for our dogs bleeding, and the next morning he actually yelled at us on the phone when we called for help as she was breathing her last breaths within 24 hours of his "advice." Same illness happened a few days later to our second baby and we went to our normal vet in Valleyview. By avoiding this rude "vet" on Columbia, our second pup had a chance at life. If only we had known before we trusted his advice, we may not have lost a poor beloved life.

Favourite vet I have ever been to. I went there once just to grab a product off the shelf and Dr Hunter came out and asked what I was looking for and recommended a product that was much better for what I needed and around the same price. It really impressed me that he personally helped customers when he could, so next time I needed a vet I took my dog there.
My dog gets nervous at the vet, but relaxes a bit as soon as she sees him. He dealt with the problem right away and had the chance to encourage me to get other expensive work done... but instead he explained why those next steps probably weren

I brought my kitten here today and I was so impressed. The doctor, the receptions and everyone else was so nice and good to my kitten. The poor guy ended up having earmites and they were so gentle with him as they cleaned out his ears and treated him. The doctor also took time to explain how to administer the at home treatment. I am so happy I picked this Vet to go to.

I was sent to this veterinary clinic for an emergency by my normal vet's office as they couldn't squeeze her in. Dropped my dog off and they took X-rays and I went and met them there to discuss options. The vet(not Dr. Hunter) had no useful information to tell me. All he knew is that she broke her femur and he admitted he had no idea about… procedure and next steps. He called my normal vet's office and he called me back 15 minutes befor closing saying he's confident I could take her home overnight. My 85-95 lb GSD with a broken femur.. He said it was standard protocol.. The office seemed

We had an emergency visit on a weekend after our cat was attacked by a dog. The Doctor was gentle with our cat and kind to us. He was even concerned about the injuries that I had received while trying to protect the cat. Thank you .

Everybody at the clinic is amazing! They are so helpful :) Our dog had to go in for an emergency visit last month and they were so great. They even called us at home two days in a row to make sure she was doing ok and said if anything came up to give them a call and come in right away. Thank you so much!

I won't be taking my pet back to this client. Had an appointment booked and the vet never showed up! He didn't even bother to call the office to say he was running late. I had taken time off work for this appointment. Very inconsiderate of client's time.

Phoned ahead to ensure that our pup could receive a parvo only shot. We arranged for child care and crated our 12 week puppy for a round trip into Kamloops from Barriere. When my wife arrived she was told that they would not give it to her. He gave her the info and said it was her choice how to proceed until she decided to go against his advice. I… understand that he feels obligated to do what he feels is right, but we were going on the advice of a registered breeder that we have known and trusted for years over a vet we found on the Internet yesterday.
Anyhow, do what you want, but next
