Dr Childs and her team have been amazing in their support with our cat Matu. We’ve discovered early this year that she had FIP and thanks to Dr Childs we were able to diagnose it early and start treatment right away. They’ve been extremely helpful and patient with us, especially since our cat is a bit immunocompromised, and we always leave knowing our kitty is in good hands. Now we have a super energetic and playful kitty, who we thought for a moment wouldn’t be with us today. Thank you so much!!

Reviews
We've been patients of Dr. Child's for 10 years, and I don't think it's a coincidence that our Frenchie is nearing 15. Her expertise and care have played a huge role in the amount of quality time we've had with him.
Some of the one-star reviews seem to conflate surprise at veterinary bills with poor service. In our experience, her pricing is comparable to other vets or emergency animal hospitals in the GVA.
The facts from our experience:
We've never been rushed out or to make a decision.
We've never felt like products or treatments were pushed on us.
We've always been given our options, her expert opinion, the space to think about them and the choices on how to proceed.
