Staff is great! Like everything else, prices have gone up. It appears they don't board much or maybe it's just off-season. Boarding areas for both dogs and cats was clean and well-designed. Prices fair and affordable. Impressive facility with separate entrances for dogs and cats. read more

Never had any problems here. It's close by where I live and Dr. Lee has been very attentive. Sometimes they get busy but always call you back. The last time I went I think they were short staffed, but I still did not wait long. read more

I just rescued this beautiful puppy and the first thing I did was bring her to the vet. I called two places before here to make an appointment and they weren't free until July I called this place and they fit me right in the morning of. I got there and they brought me straight in to my room. Everyone knows every dr appointments is a wait same for vet appointments. Plus we had to run a lot of test on my pup, Nami so it made the visit a lot longer. They helped us and definitely knew what they were doing especially Dr.Lee. The bill wasn't bad and I am glad they have military discount! I do recommend this place and I will be back soon. read more

I took my pets here for a little over a year due to its convenient location in relation to my house, and it was the biggest mistake I ever made. I've never seen more than one other person there, and yet visits still take about an hour. The primary concern here is money. They are great at keeping in contact with you if they are reminding you about an appointment or overdue "routine wellness exams," but if there is nothing they can bill you for, the health of your pet is no longer a concern. I've spent far more on my pets than most reasonable people (I have a miniature dachshund whose had five ER visits for toad toxicity, back surgery for degenerative disk disease, a Cesarean, and treatment for a leg injury), but try to talk even the least bit economically about your pets' care and they make you feel like your a terrible pet owner. The incident that prompted me to change vets after dealing with the many drawbacks of this veterinarian for so long nearly took my dogs life. She tore a ligament in her leg and had to wear a splint for 6-8 weeks. When on a trip to my parents, the limb started swelling, so I brought her into my vet there. An infection had set in due to irritation from a wrap that was applied too tightly. The infection was treated and a new splint applied. She continued her regular check ups at Dames Point, and they decided not to change the bandage for over 22 days. Out if town again, I couldn't make my check up appointment at Dames Point so I took her to my vet at my parents'. An infection so bad had set in that the vets were doubtful her leg would be saved. Even worse, because of her previous back surgery the vet wasn't sure that her frame could support walking with three legs, so if the leg could not be saved they wanted to discuss quality of life. Worse yet, even though the first time my other vet saw my dog they notated in her records that tape should not be applied directly to the skin, Dames Point ignored this precaution and continued to do so. When the bandage came off, because the infection had progressed to the point of necrosis, the skin over the entire lower portion of her leg was attached to the tape and peeled off. My other vet, who was absolutely phenomenal, attributed the state of my dog directly to the care she received at Dames Point. They applied her bandages too tight which reduced circulation, put tape directly on the skin, and didn't change the bandage for almost a month even after an infection had once already set in. Despite all odds, she recovered. She had to stay inpatient for three days and cage bound for two more weeks, but my vet down south saved her leg and her life. I left a voicemail with Dames Point regarding the state of my dog. They called once when she was still in inpatient care, and I told them that we weren't sure if she was going to make it. I haven't heard back from then since. It's been a month. For all they know my dog died weeks ago. This just further confirmed that ALL this vet cares about is money and they have NO concern for your animal's health. DO NOT take your pet here unless you want to pay inflated prices for negligent self-interest and a higher-than-thou attitude. read more

Today was our first visit to this clinic as new patients! We brought in our newly acquired stray kitten, and the vet assistant Casey was very pleasant and immediately helpful. Dr. Lee also was extremely thorough and took a good amount of time explaining the care for our new pet to us. Excited that we have not only a new companion, but what seems like a helpful and knowledgeable staff to take care of him. read more

Do not take your dogs to daycare here. The website advertises an abundant amount of toys in the yard to play with etc. Upon taking my dogs here in the morning to drop them off, the yard was empty. I figured the staff hadn't set the yard up yet (at 9AM). I picked them up at 4PM the same day and when I arrived the yard still had no toys in it, the staff gave back the blankets I provided (saturated with urine but they told me water was spilled on it). As soon as we got home, my dogs couldn't run fast enough to the grass to go #2 and drank 3 consecutive bowls of water. One of my dogs has beginning stages of arthritis so she tends to be stiff in the morning until she starts moving around to loosen it up and when she got back from day care she was still very stiff in her joint movements. Please don't take your dogs here. I believe they were locked up in a kennel all day. read more

I have had mixed experiences with this animal hospital. My dog became ill and was diagnosed with a tumor. She was 12 years old. I had my step-son who is a vet review Dr. Lee's tests and x-rays and he agreed that there was little we could do. Surgery would have prolonged her life just a few months. The clinic was very kind to us when we had to put our beloved dog to sleep. Her extensive care for 3 days cost approximately $1800. A few years later, we had surgery on our cat. That surgery supposedly went well but she was limping afterwards. She still limps occasionally especially when she jumps down from sofas and chairs so we are careful to place her on the floor whenever possible. I have always wondered if something was done in surgery to cause that. Recently, we took the same cat in for routine shots. Dr. Lee glanced in her mouth and said she had 4 abscessed teeth that needed to be surgically removed. I was skeptical because of how little time she spent looking at her mouth and the fact that the cat has not shown signs of mouth pain. After getting an estimate for $800 to extract the teeth, we took her to another vet for a second opinion. This vet said that she just had tartar build up and that it appeared all she needed was a dental cleaning. He said if he found an abscessed tooth, he would call us before going surgery. A couple of weeks later, we had her teeth cleaned for approximately $200 and the other vet confirmed that there are no problems when he examined her mouth. I was suspicious of Dr. Lee at the time and I am glad that I went for a 2nd opinion. I cannot believe that anyone in good conscience would put an animal through surgery unnecessarily just to make money but I am sad to say that I firmly believe that was her intention. I recommend that you use this vet with caution. read more

Love this animal hospital! Staff are amazing, patient and loving. Dr Lee is kind, knowledgeable and wonderful with both patients and "parents"! read more

Love taking our sweet pups to Dr. Lee. She has been taking care of our family animals for many years and always treats them like family!

For the past 6 years, Dr. Lee and her dedicated team of assistants have provided our cocker spaniel with compassionate care during her medical visits and whenever we board her there. Bella practically pulls us into the building because she's so excited to see all of them, and that speaks volumes about how well she's treated, even when we're not there with her. We trust Dr. Lee and her employees totally with our furry 4-pawed baby. read more

I love Dames Point Animal Hospital. They take great care of my 3 fur babies. The staff is fantastic and I love Dr. Lee. Very happy I found them. read more

Dr. Lee and her staff are fabulous! For over 20 years we've taken all seven of our cats to them. From routine care to serious health conditions, we couldn't have received better care anywhere else. Dr. Lee always listens to our concerns and observations when one of our cat babies is under the weather. We wouldn't even consider going anywhere else. read more

Worst Vet I have ever met. It is very clear that the vet only cares about business and $$$$$$ and not about the pets. I am here on vacation with my dog and I have never ever encountered a Vet that is so uncaring. And then everything is completely overprized as well. The vet was completely unknowledgeable about my dogs disease and condition but instead of admitting it and maybe getting on the phone with someone that knows - she prescribed the wrong medication that could have killed my dog. Thanks goodness we went home an my local vet here saved my dog. The staff is nice - but that's it. This vet should not be practicing! read more

I've been bringing my chihuahuas to Dr. Lee and the staff at Dames Point Animal Hospital for the last 8 years and have always received exceptional care. The staff makes me feel like I'm part of the extended family and even though I moved away, I continue to come back for care. It is a state of the art facility where they can handle almost any concern. It may be a little more expensive than the shot clinics around town, but the staff has taken the time to get to know me and my dog and they always make sure he is comfortable and healthy. read more

When I moved to Jacksonville, I tried 2 other vets before I found Dr. Lee and Dames Point Animal Hospital. She and her staff are great, and they have cared for my animals (1 cats and 2 dogs, plus 2 other cats who passed away) for 8 years. As with any medically-related business, the more you get to know each other, the better the relationship and communication. That means wellness visits are just as important as visits because of illness. Yes, visits take an hour, but that's because they take the time to talk with you about what's going on with your pet and get the fullest picture they can before they decide on treatment. Wouldn't it be nice if you got that much time from your doctor? Dr. Lee has done a great job managing my cat's multiple ongoing conditions (megacolon, hyperthyroid, and arthritis). When the treatment plan just wasn't working well a year ago, Dr. Lee was open to my suggestions of alternatives to try. When one of my previous cats was diagnosed with lung cancer, Dr. Lee was great about drawing fluid out of the cat's chest on an emergency basis. She and her staff have been wonderfully supportive through some really complicated veterinary issues for both my cats and dogs. They absolutely care about my animals' health. I wouldn't go anywhere else. read more
