This was once a great vet practice but something changed about 6 years ago or so…read more Every routine visit turns into an expensive adventure, it's like they are desperate to make money. Getting our dog diagnosed with a rash was $700+. They prescribed a lot of medicines, one actually worked and actually says 'long-term use' on the prescription. The catch is, we have to take the dog in for an unnecessary exam and extra testing for every refill. Nickel and dimeing pet owners to death. Sad because they took such good care of our previous dog, but that was 12 years ago. We're going somewhere else.

Many years ago I had a Havanese puppy, bought from a good breeder and came with shot records, showing appropriate Parvo immunizations. This very vet here in Tallahassee, Fla told me she "did not believe breeders" and re-immunized my puppy for Parvo. Guess what...my puppy almost died from PARVO... and she sent me a bill for over 1-2K for saving him. She then wrote a letter to CDC re her actions, who supposedly sanctioned her treatment. However, she refused me a copy of, or for me to read that letter!!! She never apologized or even acknowledged she owed us one.

Dr. Kevin Drygas and the team at Capital Veterinary Specialists were an absolute godsend for our…read morefamily and our husky, King. We traveled all the way from South Florida to Tallahassee after King was diagnosed with a tumor involving his ankle. From the moment we arrived, we felt like King was in incredibly capable hands. Dr. Drygas took the time to examine King, perform advanced imaging, and really understand what was happening before determining what could safely be done. During surgery, he was able to remove approximately 95% of the gross disease while preserving the important structures King needs to continue using his leg. He also removed the sentinel lymph node for testing so that we could get as much information as possible about what we are dealing with. What impressed me most was that he never made us feel like King was just another case or that there was only one predetermined path forward. He explained that the pathology and imaging results would guide the next decision and was willing to consider what treatment would actually make the most sense for King rather than forcing one particular option. The level of care, compassion, skill, and communication we experienced at Capital was exceptional. Even after a major procedure, King was already getting himself up and walking, which was incredible to see. When your dog is family, putting their life in someone else's hands is terrifying. I am extremely grateful that we found Dr. Drygas. We drove roughly eight hours to get King to Capital Veterinary Specialists, and I would make that drive again without hesitation. Thank you, Dr. Drygas and everyone at Capital, for taking such good care of our King.

BEWARE of Capital Veterinary Specialists "cancel culture" & Rehab Service…read more I am writing this review to create an awareness of my "cancel culture" experience with Capital Veterinary Specialists (CVS) in Tallahassee, Florida. Unfortunately, there is one particular person working in the CVS rehab services who has done the following: With rehab services, I had requested laser therapy only (which had been done previously) and not the water treadmill as my senior dog had recently been diagnosed with heartworm disease. My primary vet had told me to limit my dog's activity due to heartworm disease. Yet this particular person in rehab still put my senior dog on the water treadmill despite my communication against it from advice from my primary vet. You can imagine my shock when she brought back my dog soaked and terrified. My dog is also scared of water aside from the fact that she could have thrown a clot being recently diagnosed with heartworm disease and then being forced to exercise in the water treadmill. When I respectfully told this rehab person of my dissatisfaction of putting my dog in the water treadmill against my wishes, she then turned around and smeared my name to the hospital director who then banned me from the entire practice at CVS which I did not become aware of until almost a year later. This was very heart breaking since I wanted to continue using the other vet specialty services at CVS in Tally since there is no other vet specialists close by to where I live. After I was banned from all CVS services from the above incident, I tried to reason with detailed emails with the CVS hospital director (who only deals with people via email ) and unfortunately she protected this particular rehab person's mistake. I had even requested to meet with the owner of CVS which was ignored. Keep in mind that I never received any communication banning me from CVS services. I found out by accident about a year later when I tried to make a new appointment with a different service. This issue caught me off guard and put me in a terrible situation trying to get additional help with a chronic issue with a senior dog of mine. Therefore, I wanted to make everyone aware that the culture of CVS (at least with the hospital director and rehab services), did not like the fact that I was dissatisfied with rehab services when they mistakenly put my dog in the water treadmill against my implicit wishes. Due to this event, the rehab person was never corrected rather I was banned/cancelled in that I cannot use any of the other vet specialty services or even the vet chiropractor, all of whom I have had good experiences with. This puts a hardship on me and my pets since there are no other vet specialty services in the area where we live plus, we have limited primary vet services in the area where we live. I hope no one else has to deal with CVS "cancel culture" or with a moody rehab person who does not want to receive respectful feedback when she overrides an owners' wishes keeping the health of your fur kid in mind. It is scary to know these days that you cannot even give the feedback needed that is respectful and polite to a person or business especially if it involves a mistake they made. It is also sad when a business does not thrive on constructive feedback to grow rather becomes a part of the "cancel culture" where if they don't like what you say then they will completely ban you from their services.

WARNING: If you have any anxious breed or dog at the vet do NOT see Patrick Vickers (pictured)…read more Patrick Vickers shouldn't be a Vet is he's not willing to work with heavily sedated anxious dogs who deserves to not be dismissed by impatient and unwilling doctors. The solution is always more sedatives, but even when my dog was heavily sedated on two medications and could barely walk up the stairs all day, Patrick Vickers dismissed us. He heard one small bark form my heavily sedated muzzled dog who was just frightened and shivering in a corner. He refused to care for him or even attempt to walk anywhere near my dog for no real reason. The third time with little to no attempt. Please know I will do everything in my power to let people with pit bull mixes and anxious dogs know they should NOT see Patrick Vickers. Do not waste your time it has been months of constant attempts at getting basic routine care only for your dog to be discriminated against. Please learn and do better because the one who suffers the most will be your poor dog.

I asked to talk to her manager and I was told they did not have a manager. So I want to say I will never darken the door of this animal hospital.

Review - Timberland Animal Hospital BEWARE: Our dog went to…read moreTimberland Animal Hospital for a routine check-up. We were drawn by proximity, but the experience was shocking. The veterinarian pushed repeatedly for neutering and elective surgery despite our refusal. After a brief exam, which included a physical exam, we were told to collect urine and stool ourselves, even though lab work was already included in our $800+ bill. The vet personally called the next day to report normal lab results--which were later proven completely inaccurate. Less than a week later, our dog was diagnosed with stage 3 lymphoma by a specialist, who confirmed Timberland's labs could not have been correct. When we reported this, the vet was cold, defensive, and showed no empathy. She offered no acknowledgment of our distress or responsibility for the apparent errors. Would our dog's diagnosis be any different if Timberlane had done their job and provided the veterinary service they were supposed to provide - the answer is no, but I can tell you this is a very difficult time for us and all Timberland Animal Hospital did was make things that much worse. This was a gut-wrenching experience. Timberland failed to provide accurate testing, thorough care, or compassion. For anyone who cares about their pet's health--look elsewhere

When she was barely able to put any weight on one back leg due to arthritis and hip dysplasia she said she would learn to adapt, and I am happy to say now she is walking and almost running thanks I think due in part to the pain med.

She is nearly 13.5 years old now and adapting very well due the the excellent care of all attendants @ South Monroe Animal Hospital.
