Kamo Vets: Reviews
Fantastic experience: Kamo vets just saved my dog Spike from dying from a fatal poison from a snail bait called garden basics, (people look this poison up you will understand what happened and why.),when arrived at that vets he had died they brought him back and I don't know how but he has no affect left from the ordeal, personally I think it was due solely to the fact that Kamo vets acted fast and thrown the rule book out the window.So great full for all that help that day.
Fantastic experience: Thank you to all the wonderful staff on Friday May 29. Responding so quickly when I rang to say my dog may have been poisoned. As an update the man & vehicle involved had been staking out my neighbours as well. The police asked for an official report as they went to find the man. Maddie has recovered well from her treatment and enjoying life as normal. Again I can’t thank you enough for you care, quick response and total care of Maddie. Bronwyne
Fantastic experience: I highly recommend Kamo vets. I have several pets and Kamo vets has always been fantastic with them. I travel further to go there especially.
Fantastic experience: Always friendly and helpful, my pets thank you.
Fantastic experience: Great staff. Very professional. Spacious. Good parking and outdoor area. They have payment plans available. Very clean and tidy and prompt. Would recommend!
Positive experience: They were kind and understanding my dog Texas was 17years old and suffering they keep me well informed on what to expect in the process of putting him to rest and my wife and i appreciated that .
Fantastic experience: Wonderful staff , we love this place
Positive experience: Been going to Te Kamo vets for many years
Fantastic experience: Fantastic, caring, warm & professional staff. Love and appreciate the way you look after us and our dogs. Happy New Year to all
Fantastic experience: Absolutely amazing service, all the staff are incredibly friendly and willing to do whatever they can to help. We have been seeing them for many years now and they go above and beyond anything I’ve experienced at other practices and genuinely care for their clients and their pets. I recommend them to everyone I know because they’re so incredible.
Fantastic experience: Awesome service, affordable and friendly staff.
Fantastic experience: Great to deal with. Very helpful, caring and knowledgeable.
Negative experience: I am absolutely heartbroken and appalled by the level of care my cat received. He was admitted to afterhours care after being hit by a car, but the vets didn’t even bother to check his microchip or contact me until the morning. Until then, he was only given pain relief and left unattended, with no further help or monitoring. By the time staff returned in the morning, he had passed away. I am speechless at such a lack of compassion, urgency, and responsibility from a place that is supposed to care for animals in critical condition. No pet should ever be left to suffer like this, and no owner should have to find out too late that help could have been provided.
Fantastic experience: Our local vets, great caring service
Fantastic experience: Thank you to Tim and the staff at Kamo Vets for there outstanding service and kindness during a tough time with our dog Daisy. Tim went out of his way to make her comfortable with several trips back to the clinic during the night to check on her. Thank you again Tim, our family really appreciate your efforts.
Negative experience: No wonder their building is black because that's the colour of their soul. Every animal is important, even my duck. They said the duck, Capitansozzie-Billbert, should be put down because of a broken leg. They wanted me out of that building; it felt very rude. They said there was no vet available, then 2 minutes later she got one. While in the backroom, they laughed at me saying "DUCK"??
Fantastic experience: Great friendly service
Positive experience: Got there just before closing with a sick dog, they grumbled a little but got me an appointment with the vet who examined the dog and advised that he was a bit cold after being bathed earlier, nothing to worry about as he warmed up a little later. Expensive lesson
Fantastic experience: I just want to express my gratitude for the service I've received today. My dog was injured and all staff were very caring and empathic. Lots of phonecalls, back and forth until I was able to actually take him to the clinic for an assessment. I never felt like a nuisance and was treated with respect and kindness. My dog is also feeling better after he received medication. Thank you Kamo Vets. Highly recommend.
Fantastic experience: Excellent service and caring friendly staff.
Fantastic experience: Had a small wait but friendly service
Fantastic experience: My cat was not well and refused to eat anything. I wanted an appointment asap and was lucky to get it. Very friendly staff at the reception and the doctor was very friendly too. My cat responded to the treatment and was well the next day. What a relief to have my kitty back running. Thanks, Kamo vets
Fantastic experience: We were loyal customers of Northland Vet Group for many years, but over time, we started to feel like just a number. So, we made a change, and I can honestly say we have no regrets. Well done, Fi—your team is truly an asset, and you should be very proud. From the front-of-house staff to the vets, everyone is incredibly kind and caring. Plus, the value for money is fantastic. Thank you for the wonderful service!

Fantastic experience: My dog is going through some serious health issues and his prognosis is short. Sandra, the vet, is just who we need at this time - she's open, she's honest, she's professional, and she is very mindful of the dog's welfare.

They checked up on us after a few days and when a few days after that she got sick again, they took my frantic ph call n figured out what the reoccurring problem was. All with empathy. Thank you so much.

Positive experience: In house, there care is very good, but I found my pets blood test results took far to long to be processed or they took too long to get back to me with results...twice.
Negative experience: My dog Major was not co operative. I think becos of that the fee should have been dismissed as the vet never got close enough to consult. Well he did with my help to quickly show him the problem but that was it.

Fantastic experience: We were extremely grateful to Kamo vets for accepting our two dogs for their annual checkup and vaccinations as we are travelling around NZ so they are not our regular vets. The vet also picked up an irregularity with the heartbeat of one of our dogs and sent her findings to our vet at home. Thank you for your time and care of Baxter and Harvey and as a consequence of your findings Baxter was referred to Massey vets. Extremely happy with the service we received from Kamo.

Fantastic experience: Our family just moved here from the United States with our two wonderful dogs. Wouldn't you know it, the dogs finally get out of quarantine and one week later, my one baby ends up sick! Having no idea about the vets in the area a friend suggested Kamo vets. The first vet we saw was a man, can't remember his name, but he was brilliant! So caring, understanding, kind and knowledgeable. Needles to say I was sick with worry but he quickly assuaged my fears. He was, pardon the pun, just what the doctor ordered! Then the same dog ends up having a different problem and we end up taking him twice more. This time seeing Sandra. I believe she's the head vet there. She is all of the above and more...I don't know what we would have done without this vet clinic and the wonderful vets there. If that wasn't enough, our other dog ends up with some kind of horrible allergic reaction this past week. Her eye was swollen nearly shut, she was lethargic, drooling, and looked like she was on verge of dying. This happened on Saturday afternoon and the clinic was closed. I had no idea that the vets in this country will meet you at the clinic in the event of an emergency! It was a good thing we brought the dog in because she also had a really high temp. They kept her overnight and gave her fluids. All's well that ends well... Both dogs are doing fine all thanks to the vets and staff at Kamo vets. I definitely recommend them!
Fantastic experience: good
Fantastic experience: Appreciated them fitting my distressed cat in for a consultation, twice in one week for different things!
Fantastic experience: As always - excellent service and value from Kamo Vets. These guys put your pet’s well-being first - selling services and other stuff comes somewhere else on their priorities (unlike other vets). We stick with them because we know our pet will get genuine care without the hard-sell.
Fantastic experience: Kind, caring, accommodating and affordable. I'm advising all my friends to move to this clinic.x

Very happy. Will come back next time. Thank you Kamo Vets.
