First let me say how sorry I am that a couple folks had problems. We all put our hearts in any vets hands when we take the furkids there. That said I have NO personal interest or even contact with Spay Bay so take this as from the heart. ...I have had two dogs and six cats neutered... by this organization with no trouble at all and it is important to remember that it IS an organization operated mostly by volunteers and low paid interns. The Vets though that offer their time are real VETS and could be making far more elsewhere. It is hard to estimate the good they do in keeping the lost and feral populations from breeding more than they do operating on shoestrings. So, checking their Facebook page I see that they have a high "4.7 out of 5 Based on the opinion of 227 people." so not everybody is upset with them like it looks here. If you have and can afford a commercial vet then by all means use them, if like many of us you are doing something for the neighborhood as much as the animal Spay Bay is the place to go. It is up to you. read more

Operation Spay Bay - My house boy, then young, cared so well for by Spay Bay. - Veterinarians Near Me - Panama City, Florida

People don't take your furry companions here if you want them to live and be brought home!! Someone does not know what they are doing there at minimum. I took my cat in for a surgery they said she needed, 2 days later she died. Surgery Thursday and she wasn't acting right so I took her back Saturday and passed away that night. AFTER HOURS NUMBER pfff yea ok, THEY NEVER ANSWERED OR EVEN BOTHERED TO RETURN MY CALL!!!!!!! I will never recommend this place just for that reason alone. You will not have help if you need it. read more

Operation Spay Bay - Veterinarians Near Me - Panama City, Florida

Dr. Jones has absolutely ZERO bedside manner. She acts like she's dead inside. From the moment she walks into the room, we're filled with anxiety waiting for her cold death glare and awkward silence to end. And when we bring our other (anxious around people and sometimes bitey) dog in, it's 50x worse. She scolds us like we're ignorant children. We've switched to Dr. Hubbard at Critter Care who is AMAZING and actually has patience, Iove and understanding with cur dog. read more

I can not say enough good things about this group. Let me preface by saying they are very busy, and because of that, mornings there may be hectic, and phones may not get answered right away. You have to deal with it because they are doing God's work for Bay County's animals. The vets volunteer, and they are awesome. The help is cheerful and the prices are great. There are people who go who have very little money and they pay what they can. They do everything a normal vet does, but it's regimented due to the massive volume they handle. My pets got vaccinations and medications there, and one was spayed there. They will occasionally do community reach outs on weekends at various locals in and around Panama City, and it is appreciated. read more

Operation Spay Bay - a spay customer - Veterinarians Near Me - Panama City, Florida

Always a good experience. Low cost, great service, knowledgeable, convenient, and very caring.

We had a kitten that showed up at our house in Lynn Haven last year and after 3 months she kinda adopted us so we went and had her fixed as she was wanting to be an inside cat along with being an outdoors cat. I took her on a Tuesday not knowing that Monday's and Tuesdays are the days that they take in animals and have them fixed. I Did'nt have a cat carrier so I asked if I could have them keep her overnight and do the operation Wednesday morning as I Did'nt want to pay less and have her ear clipped (showing she was fixed) and so I offered to pay $20.00 more. Which was $55.00. Very reasonable, especially if you call around and hear all the crazy prices into the hundreds. I went on Wednesday and paid $5.00 for a cardboard pet carrier cardboard box which was well worth it . I couldn't believe how long the line was but it moves fast. she was also allergic to fleas . The collar I had on her wasn't working and they had given her a shot good for 2 months against fleas or flea eggs . I paid the $35- For the shot which worked great . Also, once She's in the system I can go there and buy more flea meds for up to a year. Everyone was very nice . I wasn't happy about her ear being cut. It was unlimited and I made a point about not wanting them to cut it but even had them wait while I called my roommate and then said we would pay extra to not have the Feral cat ear cut gone and it still happened. I Did'nt call and complain about it as I'm sure it was an accident. They have so many animals going through there read more

If I could leave no stars I would. I rescued a cat more than a month ago and was suggested by the rescue to take her here. Prior to the visit the rescue owner checked the cat's ears and mentioned an ear infection could be brewing b/c they were moist. Took the cat here and the techs said the ears were fine and assumed it was fleas so gave a flea treatment instead (and no...they found not one flea). Outside of being misinformed on the status of my cat's ears which was confirmed by Banfield that she in fact did have an ear infection, the techs were rude and you could tell that they tried to be quick to shove people out the door than to take the time to do a thorough check. Front desk was also horrible as they ignored me when I initially came to check in for the appointment and didn't guide me to the outdoor area to check-in instead. Front desk at check out again was horrible as a line of people were left standing waiting to be checked out...the front desk attendant however was more focused on cuddling with a kitten that was brought to her by a tech than doing her actual job. When services are cheap...you get what you pay for. read more

I would never take my animal back there again a couple weeks ago I had my dog in there about her leg they just about snapped it off then they turned around and told me she needed surgery come to find out she didn't I had taken her to another vet they gave her two strong of the medicine it just about killed her... If you truly love your pet take my advice don't go there find someone better yeah the cops may be cheaper than any other vet but it isn't worth losing your animal over read more

what a horrible excuse for an animal hospital more like a drive thru chop shop, l was called after surgery and was told the outcome and to pick her up by 3:30, hours later they called and said that she had crashed and died,urgent pet care said she was looking better and had gained 2 lbs., she had never lost her appetite, there were so many people in 2 long long lines, like a line at churches chicken, l am on S.S. and she was my angel, please think twice before you get in line at that place, Rest in Peace Angel, Mamas sorry l trusted you to a place that you cannot even meet the Vet or go inside, Why? Why? Why? l did not want to give that star period!!!!!!! read more

Operation Spay Bay was an answer to my prayers. We had feral cats move into our barn and had to stop the reproductive cycle. I have had nine "fixed" so far and vaccinated for rabies and given flea control. What a blessing!! I have two more to go and they just reached the age where they can be vaccinated for rabies. I went to the County and they were no help. They said they could live trap them but they would most likely be euthanized because they "wouldn't make good pets". NO thank you. These cats did not ask to be feral. We feed them well and they catch mice and snakes. They are very happy and so are we. Thank you Operation Spay Bay for your awesome affordable services to the community. We are forever grateful. read more

Would not get my pet neutered here if I were you. Operation Spay Bay has an incredibly rude staff that does not take any accountability for their mistakes. Their staff asked for my vet bill, keep in mind I never asked for a refund from Spay Bay or my personal vets bill to be compensated. Once they received the bill, I got multiple calls and voicemails to give them a call. I called and was treated SO poorly and was told multiple times that there was no resolution to their poor neuter that their vets performed. SO WHY DID YOU KEEP CALLING ME TO BE FLAT OUT RUDE TO ME?? Long story short, I live 20 minutes away and I immediately put a cone on my 9 month old dog to ensure he would not tear open his wound.. he was acting weird the minute he got in the car (different than being groggy from surgery) we get home and I look at his wound which is torn open and all sorts of insides are coming out. I call spay bay with no answer, I take him to my vet down the street who takes him over night where he gets pumped with antibiotics and they have to put him under again the next morning. All and all he is perfectly fine thanks to the helpful staff at Vets Pets and that is what matters. Operation Spay Bay will never have my business. read more

I have lived in Panama City for about six months now, I have taken my dog to four different vets/groomers and no one was able to cut his nails. When I took him to get them done I told them what was going on and how he has reacted at the other places, they did not hesitate and successfully cut his nails. They also recommended him getting an exam done so they could prescribe him some anxiety medicine, so it wouldn't be as stressful for him next time. they were definitely nice and seem to care a lot will be going back! read more
