Boon Tiong shophouse cluster on the second floor; friendly receptionists, the lift comes up smelling slightly of nasi padang from the kopitiam below.
What this clinic is specifically known for is long-running Tiong Bahru neighbourhood vet with strong loyalty among the SIT shophouse families; small team, calm consult rooms, generalist medicine done patiently. The team is small core of vets who have been on the street long enough to be on first-name terms with most of the dogs. At the consultation, ask what the findings mean, which options are available and what should prompt a follow-up.
On hours and scope: Mon 9.30am - 12pm, 1:00 - 5pm; Tue 9.30am - 8.30pm; Wed Closed; Thu 9.30am - 8.30pm; Fri 9.30am - 12pm, 1:00 - 5pm; Sat-Sun 9.30am - 1pm. 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: Tiong Bahru, Tanjong Pagar, and central-west owners who want a small primary clinic, not a hospital chain. Ask whether an appointment is required, request an itemised estimate, and confirm any insurance paperwork or direct-billing arrangements before booking. The address is 11A Boon Tiong Rd, #02-07/08, Singapore 161011, and the booking line is +65 6253 3023.
The small thing nobody mentions: park along Boon Tiong Road if you can; the carpark at Block 11A fills by 9.30am most weekdays.

Have been bringing my hamster to them for more than a year. Dr Shu Ning and Dr Chionh have been really patient and never gave up on my hamster, even if he's just a hamster. After about a year of medication (and my hamster has spent his youth from 30s up to his 60s now) on medication (antibiotics, antihistamines and antifungal) we're very happy that my hamster has finally recovered‼️ no more bacteria and yeast ‼️🙏 It's really a long fought battle and we were prepared that he's going to be on long term medication. His recovery is really very very good news. Thank you so much to the vets from The Animal Doctors. They are very caring, and even the nurses are very professional and caring. I once had to buy syringes for my hamster but the clinic was just about to close. The nurse assured me that she will wait for me, even though i arrived about 10mins after closing time. Really touched by the team of doctors and nurses.

Our family will always be grateful to the team at TAD Tiong Bahru for being there for us as we loved and cared for our lovely boy's last and final weeks. Wherever Romeo is, I'm sure he would also wish to express his heartfelt gratitude. Special shout-out to Dr Chionh who was the best vet we have ever met, professional, patient and very knowledgeable. It was a pleasant surprise to receive the card from the team - such a warm gesture and it does help us as we continue to grieve as we miss him so dearly. Thank you!

Really great place. Descent and transparent pricing. Vets allow you to accompany with your pet to get more info and you can view your pet throughout the screening process to get more idea of the do's n don'ts

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 The Animal Doctors (Tiong Bahru) against its closest neighbours on exactly that.
- A&E means the clinic is set up for accident and emergency, not just consults.
- In-house lab and imaging means bloods and X-rays happen in the building, so you get an answer the same visit.
- Price band is a relative guide, not a quoted fee. Ask the clinic for the current consultation price before you travel.

A blank cell reads "Not confirmed". That means the clinic may offer it, but we still need a reliable source before we say so here.
