    Twice in my life I have had two dogs both with injuries to their backs for different reasons. We…read morelive in a rural area and my one elderly dog ran to run after a rabbit she jumped off the porch and didn't clear it she was a small heinz 47 dog that had a long back. She never would have hurt the rabbit just wanted to run with it. She ran aside them before. She didn't clear the porch and her back was broken. I had to make a stretcher to get her to our vet. Our vet was excellent but said she had to be put to sleep. I took her to 3 other well respected vets that said the same thing. Then I was so desperate I called a mobile vet. I never heard of I didn't want to lose this beautiful loving dog. She said the same thing best to put asleep. I said please isn't there something can be done. She told me she doesn't know if it could work but she is hearing acupuncture may do what they can't do. She told me she didn't know of any but maybe I could find one. I did it was a small ride and the doctor there looked at her x rays and treated her gave me two different kinds of medicines and told me to try to keep her still so we put a fluffy comforter down and fenced off a small hall way with pee pee pads. He set an appointment to see her again in a week we bought her for another treatment and in a week after that (2 total weeks) she was standing and getting about a little but it was obviously working. We went for one more acupuncture treatment. Some medicine and Elfie recovered her back had a noticable bend to it but she returned to walking again and eventually running. I thought it was a true miracle. She lived happily walking and running, giving and getting love for another few years. Then a decade later I got a puppy that was 1/2 cane corso and went from a baby to 80 pounds always healthy always agile. Went to bed healthy and when we woke up she couldn't stand she didn't have the use of her 2 back legs. There was no yelping or screaming and it seemed crazy how could this happen. My husband carried her into the car and to the vet's where the vet did an x-ray and found she had bad spondylosis that never until that morning ever even show any visible discomfort to her with walking, running, never limping or anything till that morning where out of the blue she couldn't move her legs. The vet told us we could try surgery that would be at the very least $10,000 and might not work or put her to sleep. I told the vet I didn't want to do either I shared the story of our Elfie and said I'm going to see if that acupuncture vet is still there. We carried her into his office he treated her and using a sling she was able to stand & walk using only her front legs, but wouldn't be able to without the assist. The next week we still used the sling but it was apparent one of her legs resumed some strength. We took her for a few more visits and she no longer needed a sling she was able to walk again on her own. I never believed in acupuncture but now whenever I see a dog who may be put down I try to advise people there is a very good chance of hope I have seen 2 miracles in my lifetime of 2 beautiful dogs that would have had their lives ended by what is considered the best of care. The vet that I owe both my dogs their lives to is Dr. Gerald Johnson of the Silverthorne Animal Clinic located at 14263 Powell Rd, Spring Hill, FL 34609 Their phone # is (352)345-4830. I am so thankful for the wonderful years added to their lives that my dogs received only because of his practice. He has another wonderful woman vet there too and I'm sorry I don't remember her name but she was truly very good & very caring. All I can say is you will get wonderful care there that truly works and in my case literally saved my both dogs lives!

    We have been with them for 15 years found when moved down to Florida. Dr Ned retired but love dr…read moreTaylor. I have had other pets in those years unfortunately had to put down but went to another vet because though would be a reminder if at my vet. Well let me tell you we had to put our Ridge to sleep. We were devastated of course. But the young man who assisted us was so kind and extremely helpful. Then came in Dr Taylor well she was so extremely caring and explained everything to us. She helped a extremely hard situation be alot easier. I love my vet but even more now in those very hard moments they were amazing. Cant thank them enough. Also Dr Taylor and staff sent a signed sympathy card. So sweet

    WE love our furry/feathered family members…read more THEY give US unconditional love and in exchange we assure their needs are met. When one of these treasured 'kids' gets sick, our world may seem to come to a crashing halt. OUR world came to a crashing halt recently when one of our 4 Siamese cats became gravely ill. His name is Mizzou. The alpha male of the others, which are 2 brothers and his nephew. Mizzou started acting so differently than normal. In rapid succession this regal animal became very, very sick. WE'D had one previous experience with Dr Ned and the folks at Three Oaks. That was with KeeWee, our Quaker Parrot. That visit proved to be a real eye-opener. What we saw in Dr Ned was a truly loving & caring man of in-depth medical skill. DR NED is actually a 'bird whisperer'. Having never met KeeWee before, he simply took this oft testy bird in his hands and began to assess her. She was relaxed and let out not one squawk! WE could NOT believe our eyes! She totally trusted this man and now so did we. SO, it was natural to bring our incredible Mizzou to Dr Ned for treatment. What followed was just over two weeks of tests, meds and other procedures. Mizzou was NOT responding much, or favorably. HAVING worked in Emergency Medical Services myself, I was keenly aware of some of the signs that Mizzou was exhibiting. This also made it easier for me to confer with Dr Ned AND his very capable associate Dr Taylor on critical points and possible treatments. MUCH consideration was made to transfer Mizzou to a top notch Veterinary Hospital that comes highly regarded. BUT, the tunnel of options narrowed as we began to see less and less light at the end of Mizzou's tunnel. He was having serious neurological issues paired with some tremendous biological ones. Issues that are likely NON-reversible. THE worst day of our lives... The day the most difficult decision EVER had to be made. Knowing in our hearts that this was the ONLY right choice, it was time to say Goodbye to this beautiful loving boy. And so, our Mizzou crossed that fabled Rainbow Bridge..... WITH a million thank you's our family cannot convey our expression of gratitude to Dr Ned, Dr Taylor and the entire staff at Three Oaks Veterinary! I'd name EACH and EVERY one of the staff but I'd feel horrible IF I left anyone out! YOU guys know who you are and what YOU did! AND we so believe in YOU. All. THE love, compassion & giving spirit coupled with top notch medical capabilities has permanently endeared the family at Three Oaks to our family. WE love you all...

    This is a tough review to give. We've been going to this clinic for over SIX YEARS. Really like Dr…read more Stoker and all of the vets he has brought in to assist at the clinic --- until now. I always loved how down to earth the team was, very practical with what was necessary and what was unnecessary. The front desk staff is super easy to work with for appointments and are very professional and efficient. The technician staff is courteous and top-notch professional as well. A couple weeks ago I brought my 11-year-old boxer in for his annual exam and vaccines and as of last week -- left feeling extremely disappointed and concerned about the clinic's diagnostic and billing practices. I am writing this review to help other pet owners make informed decisions. My dog had a mild swelling near his backside. He was eating, drinking, peeing, and pooping normally with no signs of distress. I simply wanted to know whether the swelling was related to his anal glands, prostate, or possibly a cancerous mass. His labs were normal, so the next reasonable step was a physical and rectal exam. Because he is a nervous dog, he did not tolerate the rectal exam, and the veterinarian recommended oral sedatives (they didn't help enough so he needed IV sedation so they could examine him thoroughly) and also perform a nail trim and dental care while he was under. I agreed to this and expected the cost to reflect what was discussed. Cost: $353 annual +vaccines+ labs +license+oral sedatives Estimate for exam+dental care +nails was $215 Needed to add IV sedation - called to notify cost would be increased to $400 to include everything (yikes! But I get it, he needed to be out- reconfirmed dental care and nails) What happened next was disappointing and, in my opinion, inappropriate. Despite sedation and an ultrasound that showed only an enlarged prostate (which is completely normal for an intact senior boxer), I was called at the end of the visit to be told that multiple X-rays (FIVE!!) had also been taken--five different views covering his hips, spine, abdomen, and chest. These were never discussed with me, never authorized, and were not medically indicated based on the single issue I brought him in for. I had made it clear repeatedly that I was not looking for a broad survey of unrelated "incidental findings," only clarification of the specific swelling. my dog was not walking around in pain or showing signs of distress. The only reason I noticed was because he was puffy on his backside. The X-rays revealed nothing unexpected: mild hip arthritis, age-related spinal changes, and a heart size that is normal for the boxer breed (despite initially being told it looked enlarged- I was the one who pointed out there was a scale next to the image showing he was well within normal for his boxer specific breed). None of these findings contributed anything to the reason for the visit and none changed his treatment plan. They simply added hundreds of dollars in charges. The cost of the visit climbed unexpectedly from the anticipated ~$200, to ~$400, and ultimately to $575--with no communication during the process that additional diagnostics were being performed or billed. At no point was I asked for consent to proceed with X-rays, nor given an estimate for these extra tests. In both human and veterinary medicine, informed consent is a basic standard, and that standard was not met here. I want to be clear: I respect the veterinary profession tremendously, and I understand that diagnostics can be valuable when they are appropriate and discussed beforehand. But performing multiple imaging studies without owner consent, especially when their clinical relevance is questionable, is not acceptable. Pet owners deserve transparency, communication, and respect for their wishes and financial boundaries. I hope the clinic takes this feedback seriously and reassesses how they communicate diagnostic plans and obtain consent. My intention in sharing this is to help other owners be aware and advocate for clearer communication when seeking care for their pets. this ended up being an exorbitantly expensive visit only to stress out my dog and not offer any benefit. $352 followed by $575 oh, and by "Dental Care" it just meant they were looking at his mouth, they did not actually do any dental cleaning and they won't be able to do any dental cleaning because during his time with IV sedation, he threw a cardiac Arythma so I would never trust them to put him through that again. This is a lengthy review, but I wanted people to know the specifics of the event and give as much detail as possible so the clinic can learn from it, and people can be aware

    I thought this man was a wonderful veterinarian after bringing my dog in for a torn CCL. She was…read morenon weight bearing on her back left leg and in a lot of pain. I've never had a vet listen to my concerns for my dog the way he did. He also went out of his way to explain things to me, making sure I understood everything. We decided on surgery and went ahead and set the date for it. Unfortunately they cancelled on us, shortly after confirming the surgery appointment, a few days before it was to happen. I feel they prefer their clients to be of a certain social class that I am not a part of. So if you are lucky enough to fit their ideal picture of who they want for a client, lucky you. If you do not, expect a last minute cancellation. Also my experience was the staff does not communicate with eachother. If you are told anything by a receptionist, make sure you ask to speak with the doctor or a technician to ensure that the receptionist has the right to speak on behalf of the doctor. They needed a full bloodwork for my dog before surgery. The surgery is a lot for my income, so being my dog just had the bloodwork done a month prior I asked if they could use those test results in order to save to have more money to put towards the surgery. I sent test results from another clinic in via email, and the response I got from the clinic was that they got them and if there doctor had any problems with it they would be in contact as soon as possible. Only to find out later when they we're canceling my dogs surgery that the staff member was not in a position to speak on behalf of the doctor and he did not appreciate me not bringing her in to get the bloodwork done their. Had I known that, we most definitely would have had the bloodwork done again. I thought I wanted this doctor to help my dog so bad, but they turned their back on her, canceling right before the surgery that would let my dog walk again. I was told "I'm uncommitted to my dog". Which was so wrong to say, if they only knew the love I have for her. Luckily we found a non-judgmental surgeon who really cares for the dogs wellbeing and not just for his practices appearance. My dog got TPLO surgery 9 days ago and is already walking on four legs again!
