I can't say enough good things about this vet. The quick and easy communication when ordering medications and setting up appointments. The customer service at the front desk. Everyone treating your dog like it is their own. The vet!!!! Don't get me started on Dr. Josh ... He is the most kind, compassionate, understanding, validating, honest, upfront, relatable, warm man. He has helped my fur baby for a couple of years now. Recently he helped me peacefully send my baby to doggy heaven. The love I felt from this team was unmatched. I recommend everyone use this clinic/hospital/vet. 10 stars. Thank you to everyone on staff for what you've done for me and for my baby read more

There is a reason Dr. Joseph is rated the best vet in DFW and it's because he is. When I moved back to the area, I was so thrilled that I was closer to him again because I have two senior pets. He is thorough and tells you all of your options, but is also honest and conservative with treatment recommendations. As a lawyer, I always tell my clients "here's what we can do, here's what I would do." Dr. Joseph does the exact same thing. I trust this man with my pets wholeheartedly. I also have to give massive kudos to his wonderful staff. They genuinely treat your pets like their own and call them babies. This whole team meets your pets where they are, and it is wonderful to watch. Example: when I was checking out, someone's sweet fur baby's ashes got delivered. The wonderful lady at the front desk grabbed the bag and with the utmost respect, excused herself and cuddled the bag to bring it to the back. Dr. Joseph and his staff are also very upfront about pricing, they don't shame you at all for asking about costs, and they just overall adore your pets. There is too much to brag about but this is the top of the line when it comes to vet clinics. Also, no hate welcome in his clinic and I was so happy to support a local business that is loud and proud with pride month. Our pets don't give a dang, why should we? There is no reason to go anywhere else. read more

I had an amazing experience at this vet. Not only is the staff SUPER welcoming but they take a lot of pride in the quality of service they provide which is very respectable. Dr. Josh is very kind and friendly he provide very transparent information for my sick cat Tobi. He didn't try to oversell me anything my cat did not need which made this visit surprisingly relatively affordable. All around the staff is amazing. Go here first seriously! read more

Isla is the best veterinary to take your dog! Not only they are all amazing and very polite but their work ethic is by far excellent. Dr Josh and his team are very knowledgeable of course and are always eager to answer any questions I have. My dog loves it when we visit them and that tells me a lot! I definitely recommend it to anyone that is looking for a professional and very passionate animal lover. read more

I literally downloaded Yelp on the way home from my first appointment in order to leave this review. Dr. Josh and his whole team were AMAZING!! I felt so comfortable asking questions and giving feedback about my babies. The whole team was so sweet with my kitties, and gave great advice about their care. Also, I LOVE their pride flags and Zero Tolerance policy towards hate and abuse. As a queer woman in Texas, I've never felt so universally safe in a business. I can't wait to come back for our next checkup and get to see Dr. Josh again! See photos for my cats (Benny, orange and Batty, black) having the time of their lives here. read more

Isla Veterinary Boutique Hospital - My tortoiseshell, Batty! A little nervous baby. - Veterinarians Near Me - Addison, Texas

In the Spring of 2019, I noticed a "Veterinary Boutique Hospital" sign on some new retail construction near our neighborhood. In all honesty, I scoffed at the idea of a "boutique" veterinary clinic. Something to fleece the affluent suckers in the area, no doubt. If I'd known a secondary definition of boutique ("a small company that offers highly specialized services or products" per Merriam-Webster), I might have been less skeptical. After the practice opened, they mailed out promotional fliers offering a free exam, so the next time one of our cats was due for a checkup and vaccinations, I made an appointment there. Boy, was I ever mistaken about the concept of the place! Rather than the usual vet clinic practice of overscheduling and having several pets and humans piling up in the waiting area, they make a point of allowing plenty of time for the techs, nurses, and the doctor himself to attend to your pet. There's also not the usual cacophony going on right outside the exam room you're in, which helps with the stress levels of both the pets and their humans. Their prices are quite reasonable, especially considering the quality of care you and your pet are receiving. Dr. Josh Sanabria is nothing short of wonderful. He explains everything about the exam, always asks if you have any questions or concerns, and then offers you the various options (given there's more than one) for treatment. On top of that, they work up a tally sheet for you to look at, so you know up front how much the potential treatment and medications will be. Dr. Josh is the owner of Isla Veterinary Boutique Hospital, which allows him to control and maintain their high standards. It's obviously paid off, as Isla has won the Dallas Voice's Readers' Award for best vet in 2020 and again in 2021. That's quite an accomplishment considering they've been open for only a little over two years! read more

As a first time dog owner & vet visit, Josh & his team were a pleasure to meet & work with. I came here because of the great reviews. For my first visit & experience, myself & my bully Faith were very happy. Josh was such a pleasure to meet, was kind & very welcoming. Faith super loved him & our visit went great! He gave me great tips & was very helpful on making me aware of my baby & letting me know everything I needed to know for her. Looks like this is our new Vet home. read more

Great hospital with even better staff! If you're looking for compassionate care for your fur baby then this is your place!

I'm a new client for Isla Vet, but my first experience here felt like I wasn't. When I took my puppy, I was very welcomed by all staff. Dr. Josh gave me very helpful advice and answered any questions/concerns I had about my puppy. The environment is very friendly too, AND it's aesthetically pleasing. I'm glad I picked this clinic for my puppy. I definitely recommend this place! read more

I have been to a lot of veterinarians and I have never felt the family vibe as I do here at Isla. This team is absolutely fantastic. What I love most is i felt like I have been coming here for years, when it was actually my first time ever. In past experiences with other veterinarians and staff there seemed to always be a disconnect in communication with how to proceed with care for my fur babies and that was not the case here with Dr. Josh and staff. If you are unsure of something, for example a medication, Dr. Josh is great at breaking down the information in layman's terms. I also want to add, I had to take my pup to get groomed and could not find her shot records. I called the office asking for the quick favor and the individual who answered had sent it to my email by the time I hung up the phone! If I relocate, I am not joking when I say I will fly in just to take any of my fur babies to Isla for their health care needs. read more

The best Veterinary out there. My rescue German Shepherd is a very special dog, as he is very afraid and anxious. With that being said I'm very careful of where I take him as I always want him to have positive experiences. The Team at Isla Vet is amazing from the Nurses to the Office staff they've always been so helpful & patient and take their time with our baby. Dr. Josh explains everything perfectly and makes sure you never walk out with any questions or concerns and is super friendly and easy to talk too! read more

Very compassionate, friendly, and just all around amazing doctor! This was our first visit and my little Bella was so relaxed with him and his staff, and they treated her with gentleness and love. It was a very quiet, nice environment to be in, which helps a kitty that has anxiety. I appreciated the conservative, mindful approach taken to give very thorough options for initial diagnostics with step by step care and respect for what is really necessary at this moment. In 4.5 years of living in Dallas I had not been able to find a doctor for my fur babies to see consistently, as well as one that is so kind and thorough. I would highly recommend Dr Josh to anyone looking for a caring and kind doctor for their fur babies. You won't be disappointed read more

This is my second review for a reason. When we started coming to Isla we had three babies. We now have zero. They were all seniors, and unfortunately we have lost all three in a very short window. However, I am truly convinced that Dr. Josh is the best vet there is. He is loving/compassionate, and has helped us in such a difficult time. This man LOVES animals and has played therapist to us with each baby. His overwhelming kindness resonates in and through him as well as his entire staff. I cannot say enough good things. They are wonderful. read more

We love Dr. Josh! He is careful to listen to our concerns, be respectful but thorough in explaining treatment options, and make sure we don't have any questions before we leave. He diagnosed a condition that several previous vets had overlooked and provided a valuable second opinion when we were struggling to understand what to do next. He is so patient with my older fur baby; he sat down on the floor and talked to her until she was comfortable enough for the exam. He also went the extra mile to track down some "missing" test results from our previous vet that I was having a difficult time getting from them. We're so glad to have found Dr. Josh! read more

I can't help but rave about Isla Veterinary Boutique Hospital in Addison, Tx. Dr. Josh Sanabria and his wonderful medical team is amazing and so caring!! Dr. Josh has been taking care of my pets since he opened his new practice, and I've never trusted a veterinarian more. He is such a kind and thoughtful man that truly enjoys doing what he does for our furry family members, and it shows! We love Dr. Josh and his team members at Isla Vet!! read more

Dr. Josh and the staff at Isla are wonderful! Anytime I contact them I get a response very quickly. Dr. Josh genuinely cares about the well-being of my dogs. He is very thorough and explains everything very well. The staff is also very friendly and professional. I highly recommend Isla Veterinary Boutique to anyone who is looking for a vet. read more

The doctor and staff are very caring. I appreciate the conservative approach they provided with my cat.

SO happy I finally found a great vet in Dallas! I have lived here for 3 years and Isla Vet is actually the fourth vet I've been too. Every other one just treated my cat like a number, just tried to get through her appt as quickly as possible without giving her any love or attention. That is NOT the case here. Dr Josh and his team go above and beyond with your pet. They called the pets "your baby" and that is truly how they treated my cat. Dr Josh did a great job explaining everything to me, was so transparent, and didn't try to sell anything. I got great care for a great price! They gave my kitty so much individualized love and truly took their time with her. I will only recommend this vet to people and will only be coming here for my cat's care! Thank you, Isla Vet!! read more

Love Dr Josh and his staff. He truly cares about my baby and takes time to explain everything. Would totally recommend bringing your babies here. read more

Amazing! DR. Josh and his employees actually saved my dogs life. They are companionate and work with you on payments. Super understanding and I have recommended to everyone since. LOVE THEM!! read more

Worst vet experience I've ever had. Pricing is beyond ridiculous. Charge triple the amount for neutering in comparison to other clinics. The veterinarian is a great guy and great vet. However, office administration on the other hand, very poor. Sent us a letter saying they refused to see my dog anymore due to us complaining about pricing. Didn't know you can't voice your opinion to a place of care, and return get fired from being a client/patient. read more

I have been a long term customer of Banfield and was happy with the service until I met Dr. Josh. My daughter found him during a very difficult time with her fur baby. I can't say enough wonderful things about Dr Josh and his staff. This was without a doubt the most caring, compassionate, thorough and honest vet we have ever had the pleasure to deal with. We knew we had plans to get two brother puppies soon (one for our daughter and one for us). It was a no brainer to start using Dr. Josh. I cannot imaging going anywhere else. If you want someone that you know will take the time with you, listen to you and give solid advice, Dr Josh is the person to go to. read more

We've moved around a lot and have been lucky enough to always have great veterinary experiences, but the team at Isla is by far my favorite! They're all so nice. Dr. Josh is extremely thorough and detailed when it comes to anything with your pets. You can tell they all love animals and love working with them. I also love that the receptionist always calls our pups "baby" in front of their names. I can't recommend them enough! Even if we move further away from Addison, I would definitely drive the distance. read more

We have 3 dogs, each at different stages of life. Dr. Josh spent an enormous amount of time with each, at their individual appointments. He actually sat on the floor and made each of them feel comfortable before proceeding with his exam! He made sure I understood any issues, and provided a treatment plan, if needed, for each animal (especially our elderly dog) INCLUDING COSTS AND OPTIONS, so we could make an informed decision; no surprises! Everything about our experience here was fantastic. Highly recommended!!! read more

Amazing staff and caring vet. Highly suggest if you're looking for an informative visit with a vet that doesn't rush your appointment. We left feeling taken care of and not overcharged/pushed to do extra things. read more

I've been very happy with how Dr. Josh and his team are handling my beloved cat, Arwen, an 18-pound tabby with a personality the size of Middle Earth whose age could be measured in Elvish years. She's had difficult encounters with vets before, which usually ended in towels, lots of hissing and a display of combat prowess worthy of Legolas taking down an elephant. So it was a delight to hear about Isla Vet's stress-free philosophy, and to be presented during the visit with several options for handling Arwen that would respect her Balrog-sized sense of self importance. Dr. Josh took an interest in her from the start and wanted to hear all about her life at home, including her preferred foods, toys and even her obsessive attachment to her favorite chair. Arwen is just a liiiiittle bit territorial, after all, and that chair is her life, y'all. She defends that chair like her namesake defending Frodo at the Ford of Rivendell. If you want it, come and claim it. This is helpful to know for anyone working with her in an enclosed space, such as a vet clinic, since she sees all spaces as hers and anyone in them that she doesn't know is less welcome than a Nazgûl. I was also pleased with Dr. Josh's flexibility in rescheduling Arwen's follow up appointment when, just before the appointment time, she planted her feet and refused to enter her pet carrier. No amount of pushing or coaxing would get her in, and would likely have led to the carrier door breaking like the shards of Narsil. She had already deigned to enter it once that week, and that was that. We could ask no more of her. So if the struggle of taking your pet to the vet is starting to look like the Battle of Helm's Deep, don't despair! The dawn is coming. Look to the East (side of Farmers Branch). And let Isla Veterinary Hospital be a light for you in dark places, when all other lights go out. read more

Dr Josh and his team (Haley and Esteban) took such great care of our frenchie Tootsie today who was not feeling well and had difficult weekend. Dr Josh is compassionate and practical. He took the time to explain what he was going to do and what he found on his exam; he took the time to make sure we understood. Dr. Josh made recommendations which included conservative, moderate and aggressive treatment plans and talked us through the pros and cons of each. Since we moved to TX, we've struggled to find a decent vet - one who really cares about our pups. Today I feel like I won the lottery - we found an excellent vet whose staff is as caring and compassionate as he is. I cannot day enough good things about Isla veterinary Boutique Hospital - I recommend that you come experience it for yourself!! read more

DR. Josh is a great guy and super compassionate about treating my babies. If you want a vet that will treat your babies like a member of his own family go try him out! read more

This review is way over due. There is no word that describes Dr Josh and his team. He is more than Amazing and much more than Awesome!! He has been my cats (3) doctor for more than 1 year and I will not go to any other vet. He's passionate in what he does, and sooo patient and very thorough medically speaking!! He won't let you leave with any unanswered questions!! I would give him a 10 star!! read more

Awesome service. I feel the whole staff treats me with respect and kindness. My fur baby is treated like part of their family! I would recommend!!!! read more

I love Dr. Josh and all of the technicians--they are as helpful as they can be. They are very careful with my cat, and very good at explaining things to me. Your pet is in good hands here. read more

This was an amazing experience! I would give more than 5 stars if I could! From the minute you walk in the door, you enter a island tropical feel themed office with relaxing atmosphere and pleasant smells! Oh my, the amenities for the Furr Baby parents include fresh baked cookies and freshley brewed coffee! I took Scout in for an initial exam and mainly hip concerns. The most important part of this visit was how Caring Dr. Josh and his entire team were but also I've never had a veterinarian spend so much time with me educating and doing such a comprehensive exam and all that same time taking a pain free and Conservative approach! This was so important to me as I'm not ready for aggressive treatment on my baby. Dr. Josh provided me with many non-invasive options to keep my baby out of pain and discomfort. Scout was not nervous and did extremely well! The whole team made us feel special. Dr. Josh's follow up is impecable. If you are looking for a stellar veterinarian practice to take your furr baby, I found it!!! It's Isla Veterinary Boutique Hospital! Thank you Dr. Josh, Dustin, and Haley for taking such good care of us yesterday! Ingrid and Scout! read more
