"We have been clients of Leaside Animal Clinic for about 22 years and they have been exceptionally kind, helpful, thoroughly professional and frequently have gone above and beyond the call of duty in caring for our four-legged family members. Are veterinarian services expensive? Well, they certainly can be. Before we rush to judgment however, consider just the overhead costs that a facility like this must incur. This is one of the most sought after areas of Toronto with commensurate costs for office space. Next, there are myriad professional costs associated with licensing, insurance (both personal liability and professional negligence) as well as the cost of staff, utilities,maintenance of equipment, maintenance of the office space, business taxes ( because the geniuses at city hall do not like business being conducted in Toronto ), etc.. Then, the doctors take a cut of what is left and they, like all of us, then pay their personal income taxes. After all that, they really aren't raking in as much as you may think. Anyone who has made the mistake of running a business inside the Toronto boundaries knows what they are up against. All the doctors and staff have been tremendous and Drs. Weintrop, Kennedy and others have at times made themselves available for help outside of office hours. It is helpful to remember that you get what you give in life and if you treat others with respect and consideration you will usually have that reciprocated."^^ . "5"^^ . "0"^^ . "2"^^ . . . .
