Dr Alan Pater at topsail rd hospital, he is an angel on earth for animals. I truly believe that he saved baileys life this summer. After a month of going back and forth to a different vet I saw him on emergency thinking the worse. He spent the next month in contact with me daily at first then a couple of times a week until Bailey was bouncing back... Now I have my loveable dog back.... That's to his genuine care. Without a doubt I recommend him.

Sunrise/Torbay Rd are awesome! That's where we brought Baxter when he had his back issues. Unfortunately for Baxter, he had a ruptured disc and required surgery.
