EXCELLENT Based on 430 reviews Posted on Kiarra PartingtonTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Best staff ever! They are a very passionate, knowledgeable team who make you and your pets feel right at home. Special shoutout to Kate and Nicole—people don’t believe me when I say my pup’s favourite place to be is the vets to see her friends!Posted on Blissful KhalsaTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. amazing!Posted on Sandeep MahajanTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I cannot express enough gratitude to the incredible team at McQueen Animal Hospital for the care and compassion they showed my beloved dog, Bella. From the moment we walked through their doors, we were met with warmth, professionalism, and genuine concern for Bella’s wellbeing. Bella had ingested potting mix and orchid bark, which caused a severe blockage in her stomach. She was in terrible pain, unable to eat or pass anything, and the initial diagnosis pointed to a high-risk surgery. However, Dr. Padma, with her remarkable expertise and creativity, worked tirelessly alongside Dr. Roshni to explore non-invasive, medical options. Against all odds, Bella made a miraculous recovery without the need for surgery—a testament to their skill, dedication, and innovative approach to care. Dr. Padma truly went above and beyond, and I will always be thankful for her guidance and compassion. Dr. Roshni, Dr. Babbar, and the rest of the amazing staff, including Kate, Priya, Angel and so many others, were all incredibly supportive throughout this difficult time. Their kindness and generosity gave me so much comfort and hope. Thanks to the team at McQueen Animal Hospital, Bella is now back to her happy, healthy self. I wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone looking for a veterinary hospital that truly cares for their patients and goes the extra mile in every way.Posted on Tejas PatelTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

For puppies, we recommend the following core vaccination schedule:
– *8 weeks:* First combination vaccine booster (canine distemper, parvovirus, parainfluenza, and adenovirus type 2).
– *12 weeks:* Second combination vaccine booster.
– *16 weeks:* Rabies vaccine and final combination vaccine.
Optional vaccines, such as Bordetella, Leptospirosis, and Lyme disease, can be administered based on your dog’s lifestyle and risk factors. Deworming is recommended at each puppy vaccine visit, starting from 6 weeks to 16 weeks. For adult dogs, we offer three-year vaccines for core vaccinations.
For kittens, the core vaccination schedule is as follows:
– *8 weeks:* First combination vaccine booster (feline distemper, rhinotracheitis, calicivirus).
– *12 weeks:* Second combination vaccine booster.
– *16 weeks:* Rabies vaccine and final combination vaccine.
An optional Feline Leukemia vaccine can be administered starting at 16 weeks. Deworming is recommended at each kitten vaccine visit, from 6 weeks to 16 weeks. Adult cats should receive yearly vaccinations.
We recommend annual physical examinations for both cats and dogs. Regular check-ups allow us to detect any abnormalities, such as dental issues, weight changes, or early signs of illness, ensuring timely intervention and maintaining your pet’s health.
In emergency situations, such as severe trauma, heatstroke, choking, or poisoning, it’s crucial to seek immediate veterinary attention. Signs that your pet may need emergency care include rapid breathing, pale gums, difficulty standing, seizures, excessive bleeding, or apparent paralysis. Contact us promptly, and if possible, call ahead so we can prepare for your arrival.
Regular deworming and annual fecal examinations are essential to prevent and detect intestinal parasites like hookworms, roundworms, whipworms, and tapeworms. Maintaining good hygiene by promptly cleaning up your pet’s feces and preventing them from hunting small prey can also reduce the risk of infection. Some heartworm preventives also protect against certain intestinal parasites.
Microchipping provides a permanent method of identifying your pet and linking them back to you if they become lost. Each microchip has a unique code that, when scanned, displays your contact information, facilitating a safe return. We highly recommend microchipping for all pets to increase the chances of a safe reunion in case they go missing.
Look for a veterinary practice with qualified veterinary professionals, appropriate services for your pet, clear communication, convenient access, and a location you can reach when your pet needs care. At McQueen Animal Hospital, we provide veterinary care for dogs and cats from our Brampton location.
Consider the clinic’s veterinary team, available services, diagnostic capabilities, hours, location, and reviews from other pet owners. It is also helpful to choose a clinic that can provide ongoing preventive care as well as treatment when your pet becomes unwell.
