IF YOU VALUE YOUR PETS LIFE, AVOID THESE NON CARING PEOPLE, UF TEACHES WHAT THEY BELIEVE, "THESE ARE JUST DISPOSABLE CATS AND DOGS!"! This facility is a Euthanasia Clinic, I liken it to an Abortion On Demand Clinic. They either prescribe medication or prescribe euthanization. Find a Reputable Veterinarian, these people are not!

Dr. Fraess in the Zoo Med department is absolutely amazing! He cares so much for animals, that he sacrifices sleep, and everything else to save as many as he can. The staff was great about answering questions every time I called. It was worth the two and a half hour drive.

Dr. Gordon, My Lucy has a mass on her spleen. My vet called ahead and told them what Lucy needed to diagnose a possible aggressive cancer. They told her to send me Friday. I drove from Jacksonville. When we arrived, they took Lucy to the back. When the Dr. Called me, I was informed they weren't going to perform the ultrasound because they didn't feel it was enough of an emergency. I went there because of confirmation the test would be performed and we would have an answer. Thenthey charged me over $180. to tell me what I already knew. I have read about cancer of the spleen, if she does have it, we are wasting precious time. While I was complaining, I was told there was in fact an internist on call and she was there. So angry!!!

My 7 week old Siberian Husky had her "third" eye lacerated by my cat (it was a very unfortunate accident). We had planned a trip down to Ocala when this happened minutes before we are set to leave, it didn't look so bad but quickly got worse the next day. Being a late Saturday night, most vets were closed. I decided to call the UF Pet Emergency Treatment Services. I explained what happened and she informed me, to save money and time, it would be better to take her straight to the UF Small Animal Hospital to see an Ophthalmologist. Of course at this point I knew it was serious and was very worried for my new fur baby. I called the emergency line at UF Animal Hospital the next morning and they told me to come right in. She had her eye examined and figured the best course if action was surgery. I was very worried as she is only a 7 week old puppy but they made me feel comfortable and at ease about the procedure. I dropped her off Monday morning for the surgery. They called me a before and after the surgery with updates, which definitely helped with the anxiety. They definitely care a great deal about you and your animal. All in all, the surgery was a wonderful success. They were able to suture her third eye lid back together, which had to be a very delicate procedure. I can't even begin to express how impressed I am with this Animal Hospital, the friendly staff and doctors and the amazing surgeon's! They went above and beyond for our little Athena. She's is great spirits and recovering like a champ! I recommend this Veterinary Hopsital to anyone who has a animal emergency. Thank you so much for taking care of Athena!

It's hard to tell, you're going to have to take her in immediately.

It's there a way to get financial help for a dog with IMHA and needs blood transfusions? I have used this facility twice and both times they saved my dogs lives. This time I don't have the means to help my fur baby. Thank you.

That's a really good question. I would honestly call the animal hospital first and ask that exact question. I know when I brought my 8 week old Siberian Husky in for eye surgery. They did everything they could to keep the cost down, easily saving me a few hundred dollars.
