Asher Road Animal Hospital - Kelowna

Brought my dog in because she had been sick and puking for two days. This isnt the first time its happened so I have had experience with other vets. It was a bit strange as I was asked to hold my dog down but given no information on how or which way to face her. Then when she would wiggle around the vet seemed quite annoyed with me that I couldn't restrain her better. It was difficult to get the information on what was wrong with my dog, I still have no idea. They did call back two days later to ask how she was doing so that was great.

We have been taking our pets to Asher Road Animal Hospital for five years now, we have always have had a great experience. Their staff and doctors are very nice, their hours are great! Their open seven days a week and take after hour emergency's. Dr. Kular and Dr. Sharma both are great, they never convince you for unnecessary tests. The other thing I like is that their prices are both affordable and fair.

it was my first time taking my cat to Asher Road Animal Hospital and it was a good experience. They were friendly, helpful and informative. they were able to fit us in the day we called and our little kitty is improving already from the antibiotics she needed. Thank you!

My experience here was really great! I was able to get my kitten in within an hour after calling. The receptionist was super friendly and helpful! The vet was also great and I really appreciated all the time she took with me and my kitten. Sometimes vet clinics can feel rushed so it was a nice change!

We needed to find a vet clinic to have our kitten spayed. After calling over 10 vet clinics from Penticton to Vernon ,all quoting 250.00 to 350.00 including 'The SPCA which quoted us 350.00 RIP OFF PRICE". We finally found Asher Road Animal Hospital and his prices were very reasonable. We made an appointment and brought her in. We live in Summerland and made the trip to Rutland. It was bit of a drive but worth it. The surgery went well and they gave her excellent care. They gave us 2 days days of pain medicine and some food for her at no extra charge. and after 2 days they did a phone check to see how she was doing. This place is awesome and we didnt feel extorted for every dollar we had. If your looking to find a caring reasonably priced veterinarian this place is for you. This Is our new vet clinic.

Excellent service. My cat was urinating blood and I was able to get her in same day. Very thorough examination with quick xrays and immediate answers .. (lab results the next day). I was not left to worrying and am happy with the service and care.

*UPDATED* The only positive I had there was the lovely receptionist. Which says very little about how my experience was. The vet was dismissive at best and arrogant at worst. I brought my dog in for concerns of an eye infection & when I mentioned the context leading up to it, I felt I should casually mention that he’s been sleeping more than normal. I clarified that it was probably due to the dog daycare he’s been attending. He proceeded to make me run around outside with my dog to prove he wasn’t lethargic which I blatantly said his sleepiness wasn’t concerning, it was just a fact. My dog was clearly uncomfortable around him and he made no effort to try and sooth that, only sighed frustratedly when my dog tried to escape him off the platform. Worst dog person, and come on... most patients at a vet clinic are dogs or cats. Does he know there are vets out there that make a huge effort to put their patients at ease? How does this clinic have such glowing reviews? If only the receptionist could rub off her clear love of animals and people onto the vet. Did I mention he gave me a 5mg eye drop bottle prescription without any explanation and a label that reads “1/4th of an inch in both eyes twice daily for 10 days”. But he was in the bathroom so I couldn’t even be bothered to wait for him. 5ml = 10 days of drops? At 1/4th an inch per treatment in an opaque bottle... sounds legit. And it cost me $100. For 10 minutes of reclarifications, trying to get him to actually hear what I was intending to explain and waiting while he watched tv in his office next door. That and 5 minutes of dismissive appraisal of my pet’s health. I’m mad. If you’ve read this far, I’m sorry for the intensity and hopefully you reconsider taking your pet there. If the vet is reading this I hope you reconsider a few things too. *update: don’t blame the receptionist. If the doctor had been at the counter when the prescription was dispensed, then there wouldn’t have been any risk of giving THE WRONG PRESCRIPTION. And why didn’t I receive an alarmed phone call that I was putting the wrong prescription in my dog’s eyeballs instead of this review reply?! And why would I put an OINTMENT in an eyeball?

The staff and doctor were very friendly and offered lots of advice. They were able to book an appointment for us right away and have walk in available as well. This will be where we come for booster vaccines and neuter service.
