I was introduced to the Gentle Doctor Animal Hospital when my dog ate something mysterious and kept getting sicker and sicker. Although I would have done anything for him, I wasn't going to be financially able to spend unlimited amounts of money on tests.

I didn't have to. Dr. Beshara (Junior) asked me the right questions, examined my dog and came up with the right diagnosis and then treatment.

Instead of thousands of dollars, I paid hundreds. My boy has been great since, but I did think some of the individual vet visits (he's now my regular vet) have cost a bit too much.

The business is aptly named. They are gentle doctors, and it's no surprise they've been in business so long because of their expertise.
