Nelson Animal Hospital

Always great with my pup. Covid compliant. Dr. was through. Always great staff.

Best vet clinic in town with kind, caring and professional staff! We are always confident leaving our pets in their care, knowing they are in good hands and we will be charged fairly. Shout out to Celeste who fit us in between appointments today!

I can’t say enough about this team’s passion for animals and care for our dog. For 13 years they showed us compassion and patience; never rushing through our concerns and always answering our questions. Thank you to Leanne, Veronika and Celeste for making our visits such a great experience over all the years. We truly appreciate you!

A few things need to be said about Nelson animal hospital. Someone you can trust? No! We entrusted our sweet girl with Dr. Celeste Bignell for over 2 years. She was diagnosed with a heart condition which we then were actively treating (so we thought) when we noticed our dog getting worse never better after many visits we decided to get a second opinion. Turns out her heart is in good shape for her age. Turns out the treatment and medicine we were prescribed could have KILLED our dog. She has a liver tumour, not a heart condition. After only 1 week of the proper treatment we are seeing some positives. We may never now be able to correct the problem because it was unnoticed. All the tests, medications, and discomfort our happy girl went through and they could have killed her. I could have killed her by taking her back because you’re supposed to be able to trust your vet like any doctor. The last straw was when I was handed back a dog who was bleeding down the techs lab coat, she didn’t even notice. She didn’t even tell me why my dog was bleeding. Please steer clear of Nelson animal hospital and Celeste the owner. Protect your animals but learning from my mistake. Thankfully my girl is still with us, but we won’t know her outcome just yet. Thank you to Dr. Theresa Hart at cottonwood falls animal clinic, you not only gave me a diagnoses and showed me the results which I’ve never seen before but gave me a bit of hope it’s not my pups time yet.

There a good vet. They don't upsell like the other vets in town and they seem to care about you and your pet
