I wish i had found Dr Mac and his team when we moved into the area 5 years ago. What a pleasant experience from start to finish. Thank you for helping us out very last minute and the compassion with which the entire team handled the passing of our beloved Mustard. There is also a very well stocked shop for food and other pet related things.
Took my dog here twice due to emergency. Both times they antagonised me to get ops on my dog. They said because I am asian I dont care about my dog and wouldnt get the operation for my dog. What does me being asian have to do with getting an op on my dog or not?!! They treat their customers in a disgusting, condesending manner. Imagine how they treat the animals... The operation was so poorly done, after three days of not healing and puss coming out, we had to take our dog back for another op on the operated area. Not even a single sorry was said. Do not go here. It is a slaughter house for animals. I feel so bad for having taken my dog here. STAY AWAY!
We are fortunate to have a healthy 17, soon to be 18, female poodle cross with Dr Roy as her vet. He is honest, caring and only recommends what’s needed, never trying to push unnecessary treatments or costs.
Dr Mac is an excellent vet with many years of experience. While most young vets run dozens of expensive blood tests, Dr Mac actually properly examines the pets. He is also well-priced for both check-ups and surgeries. Example: my cat didn't eat. Belmond Road Vet charged huge amounts for blood tests and hospital visits without a diagnosis. Dr Mac looked in her mouth, and found a tumor. No tests needed. She was sadly put down, but it was a much better experience that would have saved my cat much pain, and us money. Strongly recommend Forest Drive vet.
Honestly, rough and distressing treatment of my already stressed and struggling dog. No apologies were given after addressing the vet on this and we were told to just rather not come back. Advice will be followed. Dr Heather at the Pinelands Village veterinary has always had compassion and patience with our animals in pain. Felt like it was completely lacking at the Forest Drive veterinary.
Do not risk your pets wellbeing or your peace of mind going here. Our old dog was incredibly poorly treated in her last moments of life. The vet showed no skill or compassion throughout the ordeal, no sympathy or gentleness. He is better off working for a slaghuis or to retire and live his grumpy existence alone, for all his roughness to animals. Followed up in person later over our experience, and were told without apology or condolence that we should just be grateful. This vet practice should not be allowed to operate as it currently does.
Dr Mac is excellent,he took such great care of our Yorkshire Terrior. Her conditions was so bad that she needed to be hospitalised. Dr Mac called us everyday with an update until she was well enough to come home. He is a great vet with years of experience. Our fur baby is finally feeling much better. Best vet in Pinelands
