I contacted Front Street Animal Hospital specifically looking for a nutritionist, not a general vet, as I already have a veterinarian at Yonge & St. Clair. My 3yo Chihuahua is overweight and I wanted structured support: goal setting, accountability, and regular check-ins — not just being told what kibble to buy. I clearly explained this during my first phone call. At the appointment, I met with a very young veterinarian who mainly discussed which kibble to use and initially set my dog’s calorie intake to 173 calories per day. There was no plan, no follow-up structure, and no accountability, which was exactly what I said I was trying to avoid. It felt no different from my previous experience elsewhere. When I asked practical questions — for example, whether it was appropriate to suddenly drop from a larger daily intake to 173 calories and whether my dog might feel excessively hungry — the answers felt very approximate and uncertain (e.g., “maybe we can start from… 200?”). This did not inspire confidence in the guidance being provided. The consultation lasted about 30–40 minutes and cost $170, which I was not informed about in advance. The food was not included and had to be ordered separately. For comparison, my regular clinic charged $60 for a similar consultation and provided a 5kg bag of kibble plus an additional bag of treats at NO CHARGE. Clear pricing and scope should have been communicated upfront. Based on what was delivered, the cost felt disproportionate to the value and did not align with what I requested. If you’re specifically looking for a structured weight-loss program or nutrition accountability, I recommend clarifying exactly what services you’ll receive and the full cost before booking.
I cannot recommend the team at Front Street Animal Hospital highly enough. When it comes to my pup’s health, I put 100% of my trust into this team, and they have never let me down. Whether I’m calling for quick advice over the phone or coming in for a thorough annual exam, they consistently go above and beyond. One of the things I appreciate most is their honesty; they always inform me of best practices and medical recommendations without ever trying to upsell me. It is clear that their primary focus is the well-being of the animals. The entire staff is incredibly professional, sweet, and a genuine delight to deal with. Even the administrative side is seamless—whenever I order my dog’s food, they communicate with total accuracy regarding when it will arrive. I would never take my pup anywhere else. If you are looking for a team that is knowledgeable, communicative, and truly cares, Front Street Animal Hospital is the place to go!
People and pets deserve better care than this clinic has the capacity to give. They feel over booked and under staffed. Please be aware this is a VetStrategy clinic. I was a client here and called for an urgent care appointment for my pet. It went to voicemail and wasn't returned for 4 hours at which point they confirmed my issue sounded urgent, but they were fully booked for 2 weeks and I should "go somewhere else". Not even an offer or recommendation to find help elsewhere. I've never experienced a clinic that wasn't able to accomodate urgent care within 24-48 hours. That became the last 2 weeks of my pet's life, and I had to worry about finding a new vet. And while it may not have changed the outcome, it felt cruel. One of the new clinics I saw in the weeks following was Juno. While I think they might be a little pricier, they showed an incredible amount of kindness and compassion. They were professional, thorough, and helpful through everything, even rearranging schedules to accommodate when needed. I would highly recommend to anyone.
This review and note are long overdue!!! Front Street Animal Hospital has been outstanding throughout our journey with Louis. The team consistently demonstrated kindness, compassion, and genuine care for him at every visit. When Louis passed, their thoughtful messages and empathy brought our family great comfort. Their service has always been exceptional — professional, prompt, and delivered with heartfelt attention. Thank you for all you did with our Louis !!
Lovely and easy experience here! We arrived early and they were able to see us almost right away with minimal wait time, which was nice because my cat was very nervous. They were very sweet to my little kitty and were very honest about what she needed and what didn’t, no upcharging! I appreciate that. They were also very informative about how to keep her healthy moving forward. Everyone was very sweet and friendly, wish I brought my little girl here sooner!
