Absolutely amazing experience here. Everyone is very friendly and welcoming. My dog has never looked better. Highly recommended Vet

As others have noted, Dr Lanier is a rare find for excellence in a vet. He and his staff were friendly, professional, and collaborative in planning and providing care for our cockatiel. I was happy to pay the reasonable fees they charged, knowing that it could have been much more. I highly recommend this clinic for avian health care! read more

Five stars all the way. From Jocelyn at the front desk, always so friendly and courteous. To Michaela and Yasmine technicians who are absolutely wonderful with my fur baby. Dr Lanier, caring, professional, always takes the time to explain everything. The staff goes above and beyond with my dog and I'm so appreciative because he's not always an easy patient! Have been going to Golden Gate Animal Clinic for 6 years now. They are the best and I highly recommend. read more

Our pup Niko has had some challenges this past year ( surgery to 2 paws, allergies etc) Dr Lanier and his staff were wonderful everytime we needed something for Niko. From allergies to pain control, they were helpful and always ready to do anything to help. We are very happy to have found them read more

I've been taking my dogs to Dr. Lanier for about 4 years now. I'm very happy with the ladies that work there and Dr. Lanier is wonderful! Everyone is so patient and engaged which means a lot. read more

This vet clinic could use some training on compassion it could go a long way. I feel having a warmer approach to your clientele would keep people returning as I will not read more

Dr. Lanier and his staff are very caring. I trust Dr. Lanier's judgment and advice. I recommend them without hesitation.

We have been using this veterinarian for some time now for our terrier, Rosie. Recently, we brought our beautiful new puppy Melody, a rescue with lots of parasites and a skin infection, to be check in on. Doctor Morton and his team are very well-organized, intelligent, and communicative. Dr. Morton especially is so great with her (she is frightened of men so he sits on the ground with her to perform the examination). They have never been misdiagnosed, and the veterinary bills are affordable. They also will call you a few days after the appointment to check in and see how the patient is improving to any treatments that they have prescribed. I would recommend to anyone! read more

We had taken our Belgian Malinois and her litter of 6 puppies here for their vaccinations. The staff was very friendly, and extremely helpful! We were told everything that was being done and there were no surprise charges at the end like at some other vets. Price was affordable. The experience was great. I'll definitely be coming back. read more

I take my pit bull to this vet for his heart guard and his shots. They are very welcoming and friendly. The doctor is amazing. He will answer any questions you have and was very sweet with my dog. The front staff on the other hand I had some issues with. When it was Time to take my puppy back and get his weight, they just stared and didn't help me get him on the scale and get his weight. He is only 10months so he is so full of energy. The staff sees me struggling to get him to sit but they don't help. They just watch from a far. The prices are affordable compared to everywhere else but that's not the reason I chose them. I chose them because they were the closest to my house. If I have to go somewhere else and pay more for good service I will. read more

Do NOT bring any of your fur babies here! They have zero compassion for animals and seem to only be in it for the money. I used to talk so highly about Dr. Lanier until he gave me the wrong information and I had to put poor baby to rest. He seemed great with my other dog but that was because we were practically paying there light bill having every two week appointments just for him to fool us on buying all these meds and testing. I brought my older dog to him last Monday and paid $200 for blood work only to be told "she might have diabetes" he never recommended any treatment plans or what we could do to help her. He also had told me not to worry about her small tumors which obviously is a serious issue but for whatever reason he did not care to help us in any way. I ended up going to another vet and they could not believe the information I was told by Dr. Lanier, she did have cancer in multiple places where the tumors "were not a concern" according to him. It was a horrible experience I wouldn't want anyone else to go through. If you want a compassionate vet who loves your pets as much as you do NEVER take them to Golden Gate Vet. They are not in this profession for the right reasons. read more

Very nice staff. Best price in town to get my pup spayed. The Doctor himself called me to tell me my puppy's surgery went well. I just really found that to be above and beyond. I highly recommend this vet! Thanks for taking such great care of Frankee! We will be back! read more

I totally recommend this place to anybody that is looking for vet And a team that can be trusted by all means . I have myself two dogs They received a perfect care every time they go in for a check up/ problem/ etc. read more

If I could give zero stars, I would. My family and I have seven dogs all together that would go to this clinic for all appointments as well as boarding. In the last year, they have slipped up numerous times eventually leading us to having to put down one of our amazing dogs as a result of their negligence: 1. Our lab was diagnosed incorrectly until we brought her to a new vet. She now acts like a two year old puppy. 2. I asked for four dogs to be washed and trimmed over Thanksgiving break boarding and they neglected to do that. They apologized and said they would take care of it when I came back to drop them off for Christmas break. One of our cocker spaniels also came back with a limp.. they can't run anywhere, how did he hurt it?? 3. During Christmas break boarding, our second cocker spaniel came home without being able to put any weight on his left leg. In all of Dr. Lanier's notes, he claims that the problem was in his right leg but he wasn't putting weight on it due to mild arthritis. After taking the pup to a second vet, we found out that the problem was not from the arthritis, but a cellulitis infection in his left hind leg and his front right paw. The infection was so bad, we had to put him down. Good job, Dr. Lanier. Way to investigate.. 4. Also, they missed the washes and nail trims AGAIN over Christmas break boarding. I believe there was mistreatment in the kennel by Samantha Hicks (the kennel tech) and negligence on Dr. Lanier's part. They can't even trim nails.. I shouldn't have expected them to keep my dog healthy. read more

This clinic didn't test or treat my dog properly during his duration at this vet and it ultimately cost him his life.

This happened years ago but I just realized I never posted a review. I stopped in on a Saturday to buy dog food. I called on Monday after logging into my bank account and finding it overdrawn with NSF fees piling up. They apparently had erroneously added a charge to my account a week earlier that I didn't owe but ran with it when charging my debit card for the dog food. I was told it was my fault for not realizing what they were charging me when I was in the office and I was told the owner would not speak to me. They cost me hundreds of dollars in overdraft fees but the atrocious customer service and blame game is what really upset me. I have not brought either of my dogs back since. I found a fabulous vet at Three Oaks Animal Hospital in Fort Myers. read more

Staff is usually really nice and inviting. I've made appointments last minute for the same day and was thankfully accommodated.

Absolutely terrible customer service... made errors.. charged me more than double the amount quoted & had me wait a ridiculous amount of time before my pet was even examined. DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS PLACE.... read more

Had used Doc Lanier for years, many years ago. My daughter took our cat in. We had moved to Ft. Myers, daughter stayed in our Naples house. The 1st I heard of the visit was when I received a bill with a late charge included. We had used Doc Lanier for 18 years, never missed a beat! He had just married some witch of a woman who would not even take the original payment, only if I would pay the late charge too, and further threats that she would add 15% more each month following. I never paid. Never went back either. read more

I have been taking my pets to Golden Gate Animal Clinic since Dr. Lanier opened the practice back in the 80's. The staff has gone out of their way to make sure my pets receive the best care possible. When I have needed to take them to a specialist, they work with the specialist to coordinate visits and care. Our current Golden Retriever is in the Morris Foundation Golden Retriever Lifetime Study which requires an annual complete physical - vials of blood, urine and stool samples, nail and hair clippings along with a comprehensive questionnaire to be completed by Dr. Lanier. Many of the participants in the study have a hard time finding a vet who will work with them on the study. Dr. Lanier never flinched when I told him about the study and the work involved on his part. This is not the most convenient animal clinic to my residence but I could not think of anywhere else I would want to bring my pets. read more
