A few years ago my little old man (18 year old Aussie) had to be euthanized and Edwards Vet Services were THE ONLY vet, in both Norfolk and Oxford County, who would even come out to my home to do so. We weren't even a client of Edwards Vet Services at the time. They were extremely professional, and for never having even seen our dog before, their compassion far surpassed our expectations. We even received a Condolence card from Edwards with a small clipping of my little old man's fur laminated on the back of it. Compassion above and beyond anything we ever would have expected. We are now clients of Edwards Vet Services and can't say enough good about what they have done for our current rescue dog; who was very ill when we adopted him. Their diagnosis and referrals were all accurate and even Guelph OVC confirmed their diagnosis. Our dog's treatments were very closely monitored by Edwards, who even recommended natural supplements to support and maintain our dog's immune and liver function while he was going through his treatments. The staff at Edwards truly love animals and treat them as though they were a member of their own family; literally getting down on the floor on all fours to treat these guys at their level. Thank you Dr. Paul, Dr. Kristen, Dr. Mike and Dr. Trisha. And thank you Kathy and Kelly and Sara for always bearing with us when we call in with a million and one questions...Karen, Rick and Greyson......
Always take such good care of my baby. Try to calm and reassure her no matter what they are doing that day to her. This was after she had a number of teeth removed.
Great people very knowledgeable they are great for Farm needs from horses to dogs they have some one there for the job
Last evening at around 10:30pm I called the Emergency Line for Edwards. A lady from the call centre answered and took my information and then asked me to hold (which I felt was odd given they generally just have the vet call you back). When she returned on the line she informed me that she spoke to the veterinarian on call and that she refused to come out just for a euthanasia. I am not a regular client at Edwards however I have been there at least three different times and the last time that I was in I was told by one of the owners of the clinic that the after hours emergency was available to anyone in need and not just for their clients. Maybe this has been changed since I was last in less than a year ago however the Veterinary Oath clearly states, and I quote, I will strive to promote animal health and welfare, relieve animal suffering, protect the health of the public and environment, and advance comparative medical knowledge. Furthermore, a Veterinarians professional responsibly to an animal is, and I quote, 7. In emergencies, veterinarians have an ethical responsibility to provide essential services for animals when necessary to save life or relieve suffering, subsequent to client agreement (or until such agreement can be obtained when no client is present). Such emergency care may be limited to euthanasia to relieve suffering, or to stabilization of the patient for transport to another source of animal care.The point is, if a cat suffering and drowning in their own blood is not classified as an emergency at Edwards, then what is? If a veterinary clinic is going to offer after hours emergency care they should be available to help any animal in need, whether someones beloved pet OR like in this case, an unknown cat that was hit by a car. They should NOT be picking and choosing which animal they want to help. Suffering is suffering and Edwards should be ashamed that they turned this cat away when he so badly needed the gentle touch and kind heart of a veterinarian to end his suffering and pain.
Amazing staff, only veterinarian clinic where the staff care about my pets as much as I do. Can not say enough great things about these guys.
