Toa Payoh Lorong 8 HDB ground-floor unit; long-running estate vet; the kind of clinic that has seen three generations of the same family's dogs.
What this clinic is specifically known for is Toa Payoh Vets; one of the oldest community vets in the estate; routine care and minor surgery. The team is small consistent team with decades on the same street. 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 - 12pm, 1:00 - 6.30pm; Sat-Sun 9.30am - 4pm. 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: Toa Payoh, Bishan, and Balestier owners who want a long-relationship vet. Ask whether an appointment is required, request an itemised estimate, and confirm any insurance paperwork or direct-billing arrangements before booking. The address is 1002 Lor 8 Toa Payoh, #01-1477, Singapore 319074, and the booking line is +65 6254 3326.
The small thing nobody mentions: the Lor 8 wet market is one block away; combine the consult with the weekend shop.

I have brought four of my hamsters there already. The most recent is my dwarf hamster, Dumpling who had a lump on his arm. The staff and Dr were very attentive, handling him with care and providing clear explanations throughout the process. It has been a month since the surgery and Dumpling's fur grew back and he seems to be doing well! I truly appreciate the professionalism and kindness shown by the team. Highly recommend this vet for small pets!

I found Toa Payoh via a Facebook terrapin owners group on vet recommendation. 🐢My previous experience with vets in Singapore is that they are either uncomfortable handling terrapins or give very surface level advice, hence why I'm looking to switch. I love Dr. Daniel's no-nonsense and honest communication during consultation, especially when it comes to animal husbandry, how much responsibility is on the pet owners' hands, and the pet's environment. I can understand it might be a bit blunt compared to other vets based on my experience, I feel he really embodied the emphasis on the responsibilities portion of being a pet owner. This dynamic is well-balanced by the clinic's nurses, who bring a sense of levity to the mood. They are approachable, empathic, and passionate about their jobs. They are happy to share about their own experiences and offer very actionable advice on care. I also greatly appreciate the compliments and the sense of curiosity the nurses gave to my turtles. The compliments they gave can bring out a sense of pride to any pet owners, as it usually directed to something only the pet owner themselves will notice about their pets! (They correctly guess the amount of enrichment I gave to my turtles based on their behaviour!) The clinic's rate is also a very competitive price and reasonable compared to other vets that take terrapins. The clinic cat is nice too.

Have been visiting Dr Daniel for my pet poodle for a couple of years now. I’ve consulted for various reasons, for yearly vaccinations, regular blood tests/health screening, dog sterilisation, skin allergy. Dr Daniel takes his time to address my concerns, and offers solutions. The staff are Friendly too, ensuring my poodle is in good hands. The location is in an industrial area which is a little inconvenient but will definitely continue to visit Dr Daniel and team for matters related to my pet poodle. Thank you!

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.
