Reviews of Forrest Hill Veterinary Clinic & Hospital

M.

My parents used to bring their cat to Forrest Hill vet, so when I got a dog I immediately thought of them and haven't regretted it. Wombat has had a lot of stomach issues (some self-inflicted), and the team is always so great with him. They treat him kindly and in a calm manner, and I know if I leave Wombat in their care, they will give him the best care.

M.

Very responsive and professional. Loved the goody bag for my dog when they finished. Feel like my dog is in a safe pair of hands...

N.

Great vet. Affordable and friendly staff 🙂

C.

I took my little bunny here to be neutered and I was so grateful to be able to register him with the practice. Ladies at the front desk were so kind and warm, they're thorough, and very informative. My little guy hated every second (the little scaredy bun) but I couldn't be happier with where he's going. I know that he's treated well and compassionately which is the peace of mind you want when leaving your fur child with others.

J.

Thank you for your email response. Great treatment for our Dog "Yogi".

T.

Very happy with the clinic and their service. Kind nurses and vets and I feel that my dog is very well looked after.

T.

Excellent vets, very informative and helpful

S.

These vets are the best. Found 4 abandoned kittens, other vets were almost offhand with us. So we went out of our area as I had heard they were good and they were awesome, fitted us in, checked out the kittens. Really generous rates considering time spent with us. These people care about animals. ❤

E.

Forrest Hill Veterinary Clinic has been providing companion animal veterinary services to Auckland's North Shore for over 30 years. They pride themselves in giving every customer the best possible service they can. The fully qualified, friendly team of vets and vet nurses all love animals and strive to continually maintain and improve their practice standards. Aero loves going there

J.

Friendly team and quality service offered to your animals. Well cared for and quick results.

P.

I've been taking my pets to Forrest Hill Veterinary Clinic for years. My pets are always treated with the utmost kindness, compassion, and respect. Every single person I've dealt with over the years has been helpful, professional, uplifting (when the news is not good), and fiercely knowledgeable. The staff never treat my pets (or me) with indifference, nor do they hurriedly push us along. When we're in their care, they are dedicated, focused and attentive, always with a generous spirit. It is so evident how much they love animals!!

H.

I can’t thank Dr Charl once again for his dedicated attitude towards each animal patient he gets. Thank you for helping Honey, I appreciate your help so much. I would recommend Foresthill Vet Clinic to any one.😊🐶🐈‍⬛

G.

We had the misfortune of having to come here due to my dog been attacked. The staff were very compassionate and caring. We had to go to another vet for special surgery and they were very happy for us to wait till the other vet opened, checking on my dog on regular basis while waiting. Highly recommend them for caring ft or your pets.

E.

Continuity of care is high on my priority list when I chose Forrest Hill Vets and as a result my healthy & happy, hairy babies have had the same Vet for 11 years. The team at Forrest Hill Vets are thorough, attentive, patient, and have treated my cats like their own. And that's no mean feat considering how frightened my Mika Moo is of every stage of the health check process: from being put into the carrier, to the car ride, and then being handled by unfamiliar people. They have also been easy to deal with during the Covid 19 lockdown, which has been challenging logistically and for owners who can't be there in person to comfort their loved pets. I would highly recommend Forrest Hill Vets to anyone.

E.

Friendly staff and a good selection of cat treatment and amenities. Keeps Monsta a happy boy. 🐈

P.

This is a good veterinary practice and my dog Barney, agrees. He particularly likes his " personal vet" Bede. Always helpful and available. I recommend them. Thanks Team.

N.

This is an amazing practice, their love and care for animals and their human companions is heartfelt and shines thru in their handling of the pets and compassion to the pets owners. They go above and beyond. I cant recommend them more highly.

E.

The best vet clinic ever! Everyone is so kind and caring. My dog is in extremely good hands with the team here.

J.

Have been going since we had our cat which is 9 years. They've done a revamp of the reception area which looks great as well as new. The planning was a great idea as it's cats on the left side and dogs on the right which the pets themselves, especially cats will appreciate. Also the separation in terms of space I believe is generous. In general a good service and the vets are great.

I.

Fantastic practice with a compassionate, dedicated staff who've treated my pets for over 4 decades. State of the art facilities, highly trained team, the welfare of their clients is paramount. I wouldnt go anywhere else. One of my dogs had a horrendous accident whilst we were away on holiday... they got everything organized, operated on her, she was in a coma and I was told staff took it in turns to stay with her, and she lived to enjoy another 5 years. We all cried when it was time for Tess to go. The loyalty and caring is definitely mutual 🐕☺🐈 Tbh....they're an extension of our family.

P.

Our regular vet. Nice staff and vet was courteous and professional. Parking was ok. getting in and out of the park is alittle tricky onto the main road. Price is fair.

G.

Had a tiny 4 week old rescue kitten and they helped us financially with discounts on all the flea treatments, worm treatments, specialty food and consults. So kind of them and the staff are genuinely caring and lovely. Would highly recommend for professional and caring service.

J.

Over several years Forrest Hills Vet Clinic have helped me with my cats and dog and their service has always been excellent. They are a very courteous and caring team of people who show real concern for the animals. I would not hesitate in highly recommending their services.

A Reply from Forrest Hill Vets : We constantly strive to maintain the highest level of service to our clients, and our canine & feline patients, as can be seen from the large number of very positive reviews. Thank you. We always treat our clients and patients as we, or our own pets would want to be treated... with the utmost care, concern & respect. Our vets and nurses are very approachable at all times and we encourage any clients with questions, concerns or an enquiry on any matter to contact us directly so that we can resolve any issues as soon as possible. Therefore, we are truly sorry and for all concerned, to read 2 recent unfavourable reviews from clients who, according to our records, have not been seen since 2008. Unfortunately we do not have the ability on google to reply directly to posts from clients, however, any unsatisfactory feedback is reviewed very seriously and we would like to assure valued clients our highest priority is our professional responsibility and commitment to them and our patients. We pride ourselves on providing a caring, compassionate and professional service, and we have been operating very successfully for over 40 years. We keep right up-to-date, all veterinarians have between 27-33 years’ experience each, we all have beloved pets, special areas of interest (ultrasound, digital radiography, orthopaedic surgery etc) and we readily refer to specialists when indicated. Kind regards Vets Mike, Louise, Mark and Bede at Forrest Hill Vets

S.

I highly recommend Forrest Hill Vet. The empathy Louise the vet and reception staff provided was truly appreciated when it came time to end our beloved pets pain. She tried to help our pet and gave us honest advice and it gave me comfort to know we did our best by him. She was pet centered and was kind to us as well. Thank you so much for Billie's care.

N.

I've been bringing my cats to Forrest Hill Vets for about 15 years and wouldn't go anywhere else. The staff are fabulous - knowledgeable and caring. They always explain the situation really well and present the options so I know exactly what's going on. I'm looking forward to seeing the newly renovated clinic next time I'm there!

E.

Awesome vets. Friendly staff and very welcoming. Definitely reccomend to others wanting a great vet.

A.

Would highly recommend Dr Mark. They do tend to push kibble (some docs, not all) but good otherwise. I haven't had the need to look elsewhere.

C.

Great vet's and caring vet nurse's

C.

The staff here are very compassionate and professional. I trust their judgement with my animals. They are very responsive and I usually get an appointment when I need it.

l.

The Best Vet I have been too, always so happy to go there! they always make time for me, open late nights it is great! :) always happy to help where they can, and the staff are very passionate about their work and the animals. A++

S.

Surprisingly expensive.. I bought a dog prescription with them.

L.

We have been taking our dog (Poppy) to Forrest Hill Vet Clinic for over a year now and the level of care and expertise we have received has been fantastic. Poppy has been seen numerous times because of allergies and each Veterinarian we have consulted with has been both professional and knowledgeable. I would highly recommend this Veterinary Clinic.

s.

I always go to Forrest Hill Vets with my cats or dog, and have done for years. They are great people to deal with. The staff are always courteous and very friendly. They always explain what is happening to your pet, and are able to help you thru the good, and also the bad. I dont have any problems taking my dog, he loves it, especially when he gets his doggie treats :-)

B.

Well done during covid lock down for being smart looking after my fluff ball Japanese Spitz through phine consultation and your safe non-contact method to pick up meds. Great communication and good timing keeping to promises.

J.

Had my little miniature long haired dachshund spayed. The operation went smoothly, the scar was minimal and the vet nurses were very loving towards her. Thank you.

R.

My cat Minty had been off colour for two weeks, and then one morning developed a large (hot) swelling on her back haunch. I contacted the clinic and they told me to bring her in immediately as it sounded like an infection. I did and it was, she was operated on immediately after a thorough examination - it was a serious infection and I was amazed how the vets put her at ease. A case of real 'cat whispering' as far as I am concerned. Three days later she was home and back to her old naughty self. I can't say enough about the staff and vets I dealt with on every level of this clinic - they provided thoroughly professional and compassionate care, and knowing my cat is very particular, nervous and not very social -was actually surprised how she returned so relaxed, well fed and at ease. The care was simply superb and everyone so accomodating ! Thank you Forrest Hill Vet Clinic and all the staff - you couldn't have provided better care and I unreservedly recommend you (as I have!!) to anyone needing the best care for their much loved pets..... Russell & Minty :)

J.

Our vet was very understanding while we had to make an awful decision. They all provided the best end of life care you would want for your fur baby.

R.

Mike, a big thank you to you for your genuine care, concern and listening. Your integrity, care and actions restored our faith in humanity. My daughter very much appreciated all that you did for her and her beloved dog Kayla. Sadly Kayla had to be put down. The care and services provided by your team could not have been any better. It was your day off but we were in good hands. Such a sad and stressful time for our family. Your staff were so compassionate. The beautiful bunch of roses that arrived yesterday were a generous and thoughtful gesture and acknowledgement of Kayla's life and our deep loss. I posted a photo so you could see them too. Thank you for your kindness!

Z.

Have been taking my two cats there for 5 years since they were welcomed into our family. My cats are extremely well cared for there by the awesome staff. 100% recommend!

A.

My very active border collie busted his cruciate and had it fixed at Forrest Hill good with keeping us informed about the costs and the procedure and good results unfortunately he busted his other leg and had to have it done again on the other side but he is now 100 percent at 9 years after both surgeries. Highly recommend the vets there to fix your pets

Y.

Their high professionalism and genuine care saved our cat's life - that's for sure.Thank you all, you are wonderful people!

S.

Such a lovely team there. Even the crew behind the desk were really friendly and welcoming. Looked after our little man as if he was part of their family. Would highly recommend 💙🐾

C.

Nadja our Russian Blue is now 13 years old and has been going to Forrest Hill vets all her life, we travel all the way from Mt Albert as I trust them to look after and they do it really well. She has inflammatory bowel disease and it is amazingly well managed by the vets at Forrest Hill and their advice and support in the early days of her being sick was very comforting. Nadja is very happy to recommend them to other felines.
