I am looking for a vet on the island that you would recommend for my dogs knee surgery. I'm central so can travel up or down island. Just wondering which surgeons you have used for your dogs acl repairs and which ones you would recommend and which you would stay away from. Thanks

try the Mill Bay Vet Clinic --We had Chris Forbes do surgery on our dog for OCD --about 12-15 years ago and surgery was a success! Great clinic. good luck.

Cant remember the name of the vet, had both my dogs knees don at Hillside vet clinic in victoria. They came highly recommended by a number of people. 2 years later and my dog is 90%, they are big on the rehab end of it though.

We used to use Mill Bay Vet then switched to Chemainus animal hospital. Chemainus has been great.

We use Rhett at Coombs Vet for our dogs and sheep. Surgeries for dogs have been successful.

Dr. Mal Bond or Dr. Harrold Bond on Salt Spring Island. Two of the best out there. Large or small.

Dr Chris Tom (Thom?) did Trig's knee. He's at McKenzie vet, they treated me great and the aftercare was top notch. He had a TTA surgery done.
