The staff at Hillside are caring, compassionate, and kind. Dr. Sarah Hansford is an amazing vet for exotics. Her gentle treatment of my rat was compassionate and knowledgeable, and she listened to my concerns and answered all my many questions. I really appreciated how the staff and vet communicated through emails to answer questions, give updates, and regularly check in on my rat's progress. I've never seen another veterinary office do that. Overall, I was very satisfied with how everything went and I highly recommend Hillside Veterinary Clinic.read more

I will not take my babies anywhere else. They have the friendliest staff ever, and I trust them to take good care of my pets. The staff are compassionate and take the time to explain things as necessary, looking at your pet but also factoring in the environment they live in (other pets, varying ages of pets, type of home, etc) in how that may affect any necessary changes in care. We’ve had amazing experiences here with our kittens and gladly go out of our way to come to Hillside.read more

I brought my young guinea pig I recently just adopted for a general check up with Dr. Hansford and she was amazing. The overall vibe of the clinic was very welcoming and had great energy altogether!My first experience at this vet was great! I was a bit nervous at first and went into it assuming they’d do nothing but a quick 5 minute exam because I feel like exotic animals are often overlooked. However, Dr. Hansford was so informative and did a thorough exam and actually took her time!! she was so kind and very gentle with Sir Jonathan and was so easy to talk with and ask questions!!read more

I can't say enough good things about Hillside Vet! The team went above and beyond for our dog, Whiskey, and I am so grateful for their incredible care. From the moment we walked in, everyone was so friendly and welcoming. It’s such a relief to have found a vet we can fully trust here in Newmarket. The staff is compassionate, knowledgeable, and really took the time to make sure Whiskey was comfortable and well taken care of.

We are so grateful to Hillside Veterinary Clinic who responded to our request for a new referral in an extremely timely manner. We unfortunately received the saddest of news that our beloved cat Oreo, had to be euthanized the very next day.They allowed us to take him home to say our good-byes and bring him back the next day. They were caring throughout the entire experience, and although I wasn't able to attend in person during the procedure, I was able to attend via video while my family was at the clinic. This has been traumatic for me as he was my very first pet for 13 years, 10 months, 1 week and 1 day.Hillside is now our new vet clinic for our other fur baby. I would like to thank the Hillside Team, for your compassionate care and thoughtfulness!read more

Hillside is a great veterinary hospital! They have always been great to me and my dog Poppy. They have always got us in, in a timely manner. As we all know how we stress when our furbabies aren’t feeling well! I have never been rushed out of my appointment and they always answer all my questions and concerns. Also, they are never pushy or make you feel like you don’t care enough for your pet if you can’t afford something. They are very compassionate and explain things well and all your options.

Just over a week ago, we lost our Phoebe girl. Phoebe was a senior Rex rabbit, and was just a ball of fluff and love. About 2 weeks ago, we noticed that Phoebe had an abscess, so we had a visit at Hillside where they took incredible care of her. We were able to take her home that day with antibiotics and anti inflammatories. A few days later, we noticed she began to quickly decline, and she stopped eating. I immediately rushed to the vet to talk to them, and we decided what the best option was for her. Later that day, I brought Phoebe in for her final moments. Dr. Hansford and all the staff were SO incredibly compassionate and patient with me and her. They explained everything and made the whole experience a little easier. I will never be able to thank them enough for letting me spend those final moments with her in my arms. Rest in peace, our sweet phoebs.read more

Very caring staff. My daughter said this was the best veterinarian clinic in Newmarket and she is correct. I have just gotten a new puppy so I will have many years with Hillside. Thank you for being so good!Update! My puppy is now 8 months old and became very ill. I got her into hillside as soon as possible, and the vet was fabulous. Explained everything to us about the treatment that necessary. Unfortunately, she did end up in the hospital for a few days but they have confirmed everything that hillside did was correct. My girl, Jasmine is now being taken care of by hillside, and they were very caring and in touch with me constantly. I have full trust in the care that I get from them, thank you so much, Hillside.Update March 29 — She has finally been spayed, and has healed perfectly! Thank you hillside! You are all truly the best!!!😊read more

We've been bringing our two bunnies, Lady Hoppity and Mr. Worldwide, to this veterinary clinic for almost a year, and the care they've received has been exceptional. Finding a vet that specializes in rabbits, which most consider exotic pets, can be challenging, but Dr. Sarah and her team have gone above and beyond. Their expertise, combined with the warmth and professionalism of all the assistants and staff, has made every visit a positive experience. It's truly comforting to have a vet who not only understands the unique needs of our bunnies but also treats them with such care and compassion.read more

Hillside has gone through a lot of changes over the past several years and I must say this is the happiest I’ve been with them. The staff are all very friendly, it’s very nice to have consistency in communication over email and over the phone. The Vets and the Vet Techs are all knowledgeable and they take the time to really get to know their patients and provide excellent care and go as far as to provide online resources when needed. They have an online store for any prescribed foods and/or supplements that delivers. Now they see exotics as well, so I can stick to one veterinary clinic than locally.read more

My experience with Hillside was amazing! I took my rabbit (Butters) in as he had an overgrown tooth and Dr. Sarah was able to get him in the following day for surgery. All the staff were friendly and compassionate and they even provided Butters with a certificate of bravery after his surgery was complete! They emailed to follow up with me the next day as well. Great service! Would not hesitate to take Butters back here or any other pet I may have in the future. Thanks Hillside!!read more

We always have the best experience at Hillside Vet Clinic. My German Shepherd puppy Taylor has been going to Hillside for a few months now. Me being a first-time pet parent and Taylor being a young puppy, I always have a lot of questions and have been to Hillside a few times for emergency visits. Their team always makes sure Taylor would be seen on the earliest availability which is greatly appreciated. Everyone we talked to are very nice, professional and compassionate. And they always make sure to address all my questions on the visits. The Hillside team always follows up with Taylor after every visit to make sure she's doing better. Taylor is always happy to go to the vet as she gets a ton of bely rubs, compliments and treats. Highly recommend Hillside to every pet parent looking for a family vet!read more

I took my cockatoo to this vet due to a severe condition of plucking of her feathers. We were treated with the absolute best care I could have asked for. They were so loving and caring and treated her like their own. They informed me with so much information on her situation and made sure she was in the best hands. I am not from this area and so we had to drive out of town to get to this vet but it was well worth it to ensure she got the best treatment. Even after she was home they continued to reach out asking how she was doing and wanted updates on her progress. I would recommend this vet to anyone that is needing. Thank you again so much Hillside Veterinary and to all the amazing animal caregivers I had the pleasure of meeting.read more

We took our 10 year old dog Daisy to the Hillside Veterinarian Clinic, for the first time. We were greeted with a warm friendly smile from Amanda at the front desk. From there we met with Dr. Brendon :). He listened to us with compassion, and we didn't feel rushed at all. Dr. Brandon took Daisy to a comfortable padded bench by the window to examine her. This made Daisy feel more relaxed, she wasn't shaking with anxiety at all, (which normally happens when she goes to the vets). He then put Daisy on the floor to examine her some more, to our surprise- Dr. Brandon sat right down on the floor with Daisy. I knew right then, that Dr. Brendon was the one for our precious Daisy. He examined Daisy thoroughly as if she was his own. He took the time to explain things, and listened to our questions and answered them all. Dr. Brandon is very knowledgeable, kind, caring, and understanding. He knows very well, that our pets are part of our family. We follow up in a week and we are looking forward to seeing him again. We know that Daisy will be taken care of, in the best possible way. Hillside Clinic, is Daisy approved! She thinks he's pretty Pawsome! 🐾 . Thank you Dr. Brendon for making us feel confident in bringing Daisy to Hillside. We left with hope and a heartwarming smile 🙂read more

The staff and Dr. Brendon were very patient and were always available to answer my numerous questions ( especially Hannah) before and after the surgery. After the surgery, Dr. Brendon explained about the surgical procedure and Alex explained in detail about the post surgical care. The staff at Hillside made us feel as comfortable as we could in a most anxious situation.read more

A first time visit to Hillside was terrific; friendly yet professional staff provided valuable information on our dog's end of life care. There was no pressure to proceed with further testing...all options were provided and the decision was left in our hands which we appreciated. I certainly will be continuing to use this clinic with our other dogs and will be recommending Dr. B. Laing to our colleagues and friends.read more

At Hillside, it never matters what the reason is that I and my dogs have walked through the doors for (be it an annual check up or an emergency), and regardless of which doctor that has attended to them, we have always felt welcomed, respected, and that we have had the best care.Genuine care and concern for our furry family members are always evident here. Everyone we have ever come into contact with over the years at Hillside - veterinarians and vet technicians alike- have always taken such terrific care of our two dogs. We love our Hillside family and couldn't think of a more caring environment for them, or a staff that we could ever trust more to oversee and advise us on their care.read more

I researched every nearby Vet before we got our new puppy. Despite a vet right down the street from us, I opted to go to Hillside Veterinary Clinic and I have ZERO regrets. Not only are the prices reasonable and mentioned up front (it's awesome not to dread walking up to the receptionist after the appointment wondering what is to come) but the service is better than any Vet I've ever had for my pets. At our first appointment, we discussed EVERYTHING puppy related and we were able to make decisions about his care with absolutely no pressure from Dr. Brendon. Also, our dog loves the office and everyone there. He gets excited to be at the Vet! I'm looking forward to getting out vet care here for years to come.read more

Dr. Brendon and his staff are absolutely amazing and bar none the best vet experience i have EVER had after visiting over 5 vets before this and spending thousands of dollars getting nowhere. He went out of his way to come to my home to help my extremely sick puppy who had a high fever and could not move without screaming in pain. He helped him into the car, and gave us the best treatment and care anyone could ask for. I believe we almost lost my puppy Wolfie, but with his care, compassion, and the right medicine and home care plan, we got him back to 1000% percent, thanks to Dr. Brendon. He would check up on us and call me to make sure hes OK on a daily basis and taking time out of his busy schedule to make sure he did that. He is just an all around amazing person, from his genuine care for animals, to his in depth analysis of problem and how we could get him better, giving us options and being 100% transparent with the prices and fees. I would recommend this vet to as many people as i could, and would HIGHLY advise you take your pets here as you honestly cannot get any better and your fur baby's will be forever thankful too you can guarantee that. I would rate them 10 stars if i could, and will be coming here again and again for all my puppy's needs from now on. THANK YOU! 😀read more

The people at Hillside Veterinary Clinic are the best!We brought our puppy to Hillside for her fist checkup, thanks to our neighbour's recommendation.We only had our pup for a few weeks, when one night she suddenly started having diarrhea. We had no experience and we were very concerned, so we took her to Hillside for help. They were about to close the clinic for the night, but they took our puppy in for a thorough checkup, cleaned her up, ran some tests and assured us that it will all be OK. It turned out to be nothing, but a bit too much fun in the sun, earlier in the day.When it came time to get our puppy spayed at 6 months of age, we went back to Hillside Veterinary Clinic. Dr. Brendon performed the surgery and he did an amazing job! The cut was very small, much smaller than I expected. We followed the Dr.'s instructions and our puppy recovered very quickly, with no complications. We highly recommend Hillside Veterinary Clinic, because they really love and took good care of our puppy. Many thanks to the people at Hillside !!!read more

Hillside Veterinary Clinic is definitely the place to take your pet. I have been dealing mainly with Dr. Laing and his support staff all of whom clearly enjoy their job and you can tell they love animals. They are all patient, kind, courteous and caring. I have two 5-1/2 month old kittens, from the same litter, brother and sister. I have brought her in and she is actually quite comfortable at Hillside, which is great. Also being less.than 10 minutes from my place makes the overall Hillside experience even better. Lastly Dr. Laing is very knowledgeable and provides me with the answers I need in order to make unfortunately decisions with regards to the care of my pets. So thank you very much.read more

Our experiences over the years with Hillside have always been very positive, and remain so with the most recent developments. One of the most important aspects of a relationship with a vet is the manner in which the staff make our Lory feel comfortable. It is a relief not having to bring her into a vet trembling with fear. Clearly all the staff treat her with love.Naturally competence of the staff is also important. That is always illustrated on any visit. Furthermore we appreciate the fact that if a situation comes up that needs immediate attention we are fitted in without any hesitation.Lory's surgery yesterday went well, and all our contacts with the staff both before and after were both professional and comforting.read more

We have been going to this vet for the past few years with our first dog a Great Dane. Our dog feels quite comfortable every time we bring her. She can get nervous and the staff/vets are so gentle with her and friendly. They found the right food for her when we went through so many kinds with our dog and they make ordering ahead of time for food and other vaccines, flea etc very easy. Never had any complaints with our visits. The only thing is the accessibility to the building can be tricky sometimes because of the construction on and off.But overall great vet to go to and would highly recommend!:)read more

Whenever I needed them they did everything to accommodate me and get me in quickly to seek help for my pets. I never felt just like a customer I felt that they truly cared for my pets and our family. On many occasions the staff would phone me at home to see how my pets were doing and if there were any concerns or questions that I had re medications etc.Recently I have had the pleasure of meeting Dr. Satchu and I know that my pets will be in good hands with her and her team going forward.I highly recommend Hillside for fantastic care for your pets.read more

The staff at Hillside have consistently been wonderful to me and to my sweet golden retriever, Ella-Blu. Most recently when Ella required emergency surgery to repair her severely damaged tail, they were compassionate, professional, informative and very kind at a time when I needed reassurance the most. Dr. Webb's meticulous surgical skills saved Ella's tail and I will be forever grateful. With all that Ella has been through, she continues to bolt to the front door of the vet clinic with each and every visit. In part, it may be because of the liver treats, but I think it's because she knows that Hillside is a good place to be. Thank you to the entire staff for all you have done for usread more
