Upper Serangoon shophouse cluster; cleaner-feel waiting room, slightly higher consult fees, longer appointments.

What this clinic is specifically known for is boutique clinic; vets with post-graduate special interests, longer consult slots. The team is experienced general practice team; quieter pace than the high-volume HDB clinics. At the consultation, ask what the findings mean, which options are available and what should prompt a follow-up.

On hours and scope: mon-fri 9.30am-9.30pm with break; sat-sun shorter sessions. This is a routine practice. For middle-of-the-night emergencies (collapse, bloat, suspected poisoning, anything that needs a CT scanner before sunrise), the call is to one of the 24-hour A&E hospitals on the emergency list, not here. For everything else (vaccination planning, sterilisation, the lump you noticed at the weekend, health changes in an older dog), this is the kind of practice that earns long-term trust.

Who this clinic suits: owners in the Kovan catchment who want a primary vet they can stay with for a decade. Ask whether an appointment is required, request an itemised estimate, and confirm any insurance paperwork or direct-billing arrangements before booking. The address is 787A Upper Serangoon Road, Singapore 534655, and the booking line is +65 6909 5338.

The small thing nobody mentions: turn up five minutes early on the first visit, with the puppy in a harness if the harness is fitted yet. The first impression of a clinic is largely formed in the waiting room, not the consult room, and the calmer you are on the way in, the calmer the dog is on the table.

    Im incredibly thankful to Dr Ruth & her entire team for the care they gave Kylo on 3rd and 4th Feb. From the moment we stepped in, we felt genuinely supported & reassured. As a very anxious dog mum, handing my baby over for surgery was one of the hardest things i had to do. I was worried about every little detail whether he would be scared, whether he would be in pain, whether he would feel alone. But the moment we met Dr Ruth & her team, i felt a sense of calm. Dr Ruth was so patient and gentle. She explained everything clearly, reassured me without dismissing my worries, and treated Kylo with such genuine care. You can really feel that she loves what she does. Its not just professionalism.. it’s compassion 💕 Her team were incredibly soft and tender with him. The way they spoke to Kylo & handled him so carefully… it meant so much to me. Even the reception team was warm & reassuring during such a stressful time. Every single person made me feel supported. I cried when i left him there, but i also knew in my heart he was in safe hands. Seeing him recover so well now is the greatest relief. Thank you for treating Kylo not just as a patient, but as someone’s baby. We are beyond grateful 💙

    I recently switched my 14 year old senior dog’s veterinary care to Hillside Vet, and it has been one of the best decisions I have made for him. Dr Ruth Lin came highly recommended by my sister, whose two cats see her as well. After dropping my sister and her cats off a few times, I always noticed the warmth and kindness the staff show to every pet and owner who walks in. When my dog became unwell and I could not get an appointment with his usual vet, I was relieved to secure one with Dr Ruth. Her assessment was thorough, her consultation was reassuring, and her explanations were clear. The recommendations she made were reasonable and helped me make an informed decision on how to move forward with his care. It has now been a month and my dog’s condition is stable. I am very grateful to Dr Ruth and the team for making me feel so supported and reassured throughout this process. What stood out even more was how relaxed my dog was during the visit. He is usually grumpy and anxious at the vet but he did not seem to mind being there at all. That says a lot, and it made me even more confident that we made the right choice. Highly recommended, especially for senior pets who need extra gentleness and attentive care.

    Great team full of experience and love for the job. Thank you Dr Cheryl for removing Keira’s lumps back in 2022 when her cancer came back (and restitching her wound after she yanked out the sutures). Our heartfelt thanks to Dr Pauline for your expert guidance in caring for Keira as she lived out her golden years up to a ripe old age of 16. Gratitude to the front desk folks and nurses as well for always being friendly and helpful ❤️

How this clinic compares nearby

The things that decide where you actually drive are whether they can see you now, whether they take walk-ins, and whether the tests can be run on site instead of sent away. Here is Hillside Veterinary Surgery against its closest neighbours on exactly that.
