Dr.K. Milani2025-06-13Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Our dog Luffy has been seeing Dr. Frank for the past two years, and we’ve always had a great experience. We brush her teeth every night, but despite our efforts, she still develops tartar buildup on her molars. As a dentist myself, I understand the importance of proper dental care and how challenging it can be to remove calculus under the gumline—especially in pets. The team at the clinic performs cleanings under sedation, which allows for a much more thorough and effective procedure, while keeping it comfortable and stress-free for Luffy. We truly appreciate the care and professionalism of Dr. Frank and his team.

Dear Dr. Milani, Thank you sincerely for taking the time to share your experience with us. It’s an honour to care for Luffy, and we are truly grateful for the trust you have placed in Dr. Farhadi and our team over the past two years. As a dental professional yourself, your recognition of the importance and complexity of veterinary dental care means a lot. We are so pleased to hear that our approach has helped make Luffy’s cleanings more comfortable and effective. Your kind words and continued support are deeply appreciated. We look forward to many more happy, healthy visits with Luffy!

Dr. Ali is always kind, gentle, patient, and caring at all of our visits. Murfy is extremely fearful and we are incredibly grateful for how calming and friendly North Care staff are.

Dear Sussana, Thank you so much for your kind words and for trusting us with Murfy’s care over the years. It truly means a lot to our entire team to know that our efforts to provide gentle, compassionate, and patient care have made a difference for you and Murfy. We understand how important it is to create a calm and reassuring environment, especially for pets who are more fearful, and we are so grateful for your continued trust in our team. Murfy is a very special part of the North Care family, and we look forward to continuing to care for him with the same dedication and kindness you've come to expect. Warmest regards, The North Care Animal Hospital Team anita memar2025-06-12Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I recently brought my Border Collie to North Care Animal Hospital for a cracked tooth surgery, and I couldn’t be more grateful for the exceptional care we received. My dog is usually very anxious at the vet, and this visit started off stressful — he was so scared that he even snapped at Dr. Ali before his anesthesia shot. But Dr. Ali remained incredibly calm, friendly, and professional, reassuring both me and my pup. His compassion and experience really showed, and it helped ease my worries immensely. Also a big shoutout to Dr Farhang for pitching in to help. The entire staff was kind, attentive, and clearly animal-loving. A special shout-out to Desiree, who met us at the door with treats and gently greeted my dog — that small gesture made a big difference in how he settled in. Thank you to everyone at North Care for your patience, skill, and genuine care. I highly recommend this clinic to anyone looking for trustworthy and compassionate veterinary services. 💖💖💖💖

Very knowledgeable and personable staff ! Welcome to the neighborhood 🥳🙏 Edited March 7th 2024 Dr Ali is not only a veterinarian but is a GENUINE animal lover and caring human being. We had the Ghastly task of clearing our dogs thru London Heathrow airport (btw...AVOID UK for transiting with pet.waaaayyyy too much hassle) and after 3 worrisome days and LOTS of help from Dr Ali and his team we are allowed to travel with our pets. Thank you ALL for your efforts which paid off 🎉🥳🙏 Newer Review May 29th 2025 If you're not taking your pets to North Care you and your pets are missing out! Not only are the doctors incredible the front team is exceptional! Janelle went ABOVE and BEYOND helping us to get paperwork ready (and CORRECT) for CFIA's approval. I can't thank her enough for her support and knowledge in getting our very complicated situation ironed out with CFIA so we can travel with our pets. THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU JANELLE 😊 🙏 🙏🙏🙏👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

Dear Noushine, On behalf of Dr. Ali, Janelle, and the rest of the team, thank you so much for this extremely heartfelt and sincere feedback. We are thrilled to hear that we were able to support you through the complicated process of travelling internationally with Bella and Zeus. We are so glad Janelle could make it smooth and stress-free for you. We’ll be sure to pass along your kind message to her! We are always here for you and your pets. Wishing you safe travels! Sincerely, The North Care Animal Hospital Team somayeh esfahani2025-05-27Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I’ve had the pleasure of visiting North Care Animal Hospital with both of the veterinarians on staff for my puppy, Milo, and I couldn’t be more impressed. The level of care and attention they provide is outstanding. The clinic has a calm and welcoming atmosphere that is truly pet-friendly—Milo always feels at ease during his visits and never shows signs of stress, which speaks volumes about the environment and the staff. One of the things I appreciate most is how organized and smooth the process is. They consistently send helpful reminders for upcoming vaccinations, medication refills, or check-ups, so I never have to worry about missing anything important. The entire team is incredibly friendly, compassionate, and professional, making every visit a positive experience. I highly recommend this clinic to anyone looking for high-quality, stress-free veterinary care for their pet.

The team also appreciates your feedback about our reminders. We are so glad to hear that hear they have helped make things easier for you. Thank you again for trusting us with Milo’s care and for your glowing recommendation. We look forward to seeing you both again soon!

Dear Matea, Thank you so much for your amazing feedback! We’re absolutely thrilled to hear that Dr. Ali was able to keep Bailey comfortable. That truly means the world to us.

Dear Pavlo, Thank you so much for taking the time to share about your feedback. Dr. Farhang along with the rest of the team are pleased to hear that our dedication to being open and honest with pet parents was reflected in your experience. Honey and yourself are welcome anytime! Kindly, The North Care Animal Hospital Team Zoe2025-05-20Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We have followed Dr. Ali to his clinic in North Van because there is no other vet who will take care of our furbaby (and us) like he does. He really treats us like family. Our pup has unfortunately had some illnesses and accidents but he was able to quickly diagnose and advise a treatment plan while providing much needed education for us first time dog owners. Highly recommend ❤️
Owner's reply
Dear Zoe, Thank you so much for your loyalty, trust, and incredibly kind words. It means the world to Dr. Ali and all of us here at North Care that you’ve followed him to our new clinic. We are honoured to be part of Tofino's journey. We know how overwhelming it can be, especially as first-time dog parents, and we're so glad Dr. Ali could provide both the care and the education you needed during those stressful times. Tofino is so lucky to have such dedicated pet parents and we're lucky to have you as part of our clinic family. Thank you again for your heartfelt words, we’re always here for you! Warmest regards, The North Care Animal Hospital Team Armita Elahi2025-05-08Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I’ve been bringing my puppy Ava here since she was 7 weeks old. Dr. Ali has been her vet from the start and he’s incredibly kind, gentle, and truly caring. He takes the time to explain everything and always makes sure Ava feels safe and comfortable. He also really makes sure both you and your pet feel at ease. Ava recently had her spay surgery, and he made sure everything went smoothly. The whole clinic team is friendly, gentle, and clearly loves what they do. I always feel like Ava is in the best hands. — @pomprincessava

Hello Armita, Thank you so much for your kind words and for trusting us with Ava’s care since she was just a tiny pup! Dr. Ali and the entire team are thrilled to hear how supported and comfortable you both feel during your visits. We’re so glad Ava’s spay surgery went smoothly and that she’s recovering well. She’s such a sweet girl, and it’s truly a joy to watch her grow! We’re always here for you and Ava. The Team at North Care Lisa Avery2025-04-25Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Our first contact with North Care Animal Hospital was when we needed an ultrasound for our cat, Charlie, as he was losing weight. We were trying to get it completed before we went on vacation but there were no available appointments at other vet or emergency clinics. However, the staff at North Care found a spot for us in their schedule within a couple of days. The procedure was completed with great care and Dr. Farhadi provided the results and a treatment plan well in advance of our vacation so that we were able to get everything in place for our cat sitters. Dr. Farhadi and staff were so responsive to our needs and provided support and assistance. We were able to go on vacation knowing that, if needed, Charlie could return to the clinic for follow-up care which significantly reduced our worry while we were away. Dr. Farhadi and staff are always so friendly and kind during Charlie’s follow up appointments and he is making progress in getting back to his healthy weight. We highly recommend North Care Animal Hospital.

Dearest Lisa, Thank you so much for your heartfelt review and for giving us the opportunity to care for sweet Charlie. We understand how stressful it can be when a beloved pet is unwell, especially right before a trip, and we’re truly glad we could find a timely appointment to ensure he received the care he needed. Charli's cute pink nose quickly won over everyone here! Dr. Farhadi and our entire team are dedicated to providing compassionate, thorough care, and it means so much to know you felt supported throughout the process. We’re so happy to hear that Charlie is making progress toward a healthy weight and continuing to do well. It’s always a joy to welcome him back for his follow up visits. Thank you again for your kind words and for placing your trust in North Care Animal Hospital. We’re always here for you and Charlie, and we look forward to continuing to care for him.
