    Aimee G.

    I absolutely love this vet clinic for my growing GS, Dexter. Just went in for his second check up and once again I was blown away by the efficiency, kindness and thoroughness of the staff. I haven't had to wait once. They greet me when I walk in the door and take me and my puppy directly back into the room. Great bedside manner, take plenty of time and ask me if I have any questions or concerns!!! They even dealt with his bad attitude and sharp Gs puppy teeth as they cut his nails. Beyond organized and caring. I've had two other dogs and multiple vet offices. But every employee here just goes above and beyond for me and my dog. I even stalled outside and Cindy offered to jump start my car. #not all heroes wear capes. Lol.

    Love this place! My dog has always had a fear of coming to the vet, shaking and whining, but not here. He is currently sleeping beside me right now. He's never been more relaxed, and they definitely know how to take care of your pup.

    Blood leaking from my dog as I rushed her to the ER

    So took my dog here to have her spade, everything seemed ok, dog came home rested all afternoon and was monitored the whole time never being left along to access her incisions. She got up and walked a couple of feet and we notice blood coming from her abdomen. What you see in the photo only tells part of the story, a towel was used to stop the bleeding and was extremely saturated with blood. We rushed her to the Vet ER where the bleeding continued all over the place and they had to wrap her up like you see in the attached photo. The ER had her monitored overnight and we called Van Dyke the next day at noon to find the vet absolved her self and practice from any wrong doing and did not even offer an apology or call me, but had the front desk lady call me to give me the news. I will ensure no one I know ever uses this vet ever again as there is no personal accountability for her actions, no remorse for the condition to which my pet was placed. I originally thought this Vet held herself to a higher standard and truly cared about every aspect of her practice but this incident has clearly shown me this vet has two side to her professionalism. And now an update my dog underwent 2 hours of surgery to repair the damage this vet did to my dog.

    Dr Danielson is an excellent and caring veterinarian. He has cared for my pets, dogs and cats for…read more30 years. I highly recommend and trust him.

    I initially wasn't going to write a review until I saw a 1-star Google review that was eerily…read moresimilar to my experience. I took my GSD to Dr. Danielson to establish care and discuss gastropexy, neuter, and hernia repair. The front staff and vet tech were nice. The nightmare started when Dr. Danielson entered. Before the appointment, I spoke with the staff via email explaining that I have an under-2-year-old GSD who is hyper, excited, and can be mouthy, but is not aggressive. I came prepared with a muzzle, e-collar, Herm Sprenger, vest, and had given him trazodone beforehand as an abundance of caution. The room was small and already had my mom, myself, my dog, and the vet tech. When Dr. Danielson entered, my dog went to sniff him. He then lowered the weight scale, which made a loud noise, causing my dog to back into us and bark. (This was the eerily similar review I mentioned that someone posted) I was immediately asked if I had a trainer. I said I had used two. His response was, "Clearly they were not good." He then proceeded to lecture me about my dog's behavior rather than discuss why we were there. He told me my dog should not be "protecting" me and, when my mom tried to explain that this was a new environment with a lot happening, he put his hand up and said, "Don't do that." He then had the vet tech take my dog to the back because he might do better without me. Shortly afterward, we were told my dog had slipped his muzzle and e-collar and had gotten tangled in his leash. I was told he got his paw caught and broke everything off. The explanation did not make sense to me, especially because the muzzle was returned to me unhooked from the buckle holes which is more difficult to remove than the quick release. When my dog was brought back, he immediately came to me, laid down, and allowed me to put everything back on without any issue. Dr. Danielson asked how we could finish the exam. I declined. My dog had been through enough, and after the way I was spoken to, I no longer felt comfortable continuing. He made sure to recommend a specific trainer and give me their card on the way out. I later looked into that facility and found reviews that were even worse. If you have a dog who is on their absolute best behavior in new places and doesn't bark or if you enjoy being scolded about your pet-parenting without being asked what you do, then this is the place for you!

Wasn't sure how they…read morewere handling visit last due to COVID but we called and they asked us to be there within 30 minutes. I left the house and completely forgot a mask. When we got there they have signage on the door to call the office number. I did and she picked up asking if we had masks. I ended up purchasing one from them for $2.80 in order to come into the office. When inside they have the front area sectioned off where you sit with your pet and don't move from the area. They dr came out and sat across the room to discuss the symptoms, etc. they then took Bingo to the back and we had to remain in the lobby. Soon the dr came back letting us know that it was just an infection and prescribed some antibiotics. Expensive vet bill but glad to know that they take Care Credit and that our doggie is all better now. If you don't have a mask and don't want to purchase one they'll have you remain outside while they take your pet inside. Very professional place and great to know that they have procedures in place for COVID to protect all parties.

    We came to Westchase for care for our senior dog, Angus. We are snowbirds, so we didn't have anyone…read morelocal for vet care. During our time in Tampa, Angus' health deteriorated. So, at 16 we had to make the hard choice to give our pup the best possible send-off as he crossed the Rainbow Bridge. When we came for care we knew we would probably be making that decision in the near future, but didn't realize it would be so soon. The staff and doctors at Westchase were awesome. Dr. Espinoza spent quality time with us and discussed options for care at Angus' stage of life. She gave us sound options and advice. When we eventually had to make our decision, everyone was so kind to us. This is not the first time we have had to send off a loved pet, but it was probably one of the best experiences we have had with the process. I can't begin to express how grateful we were for the compassion we were shown during our time of grief. We would definitely recommend Westchase Veterinary.

    If I could give this place ZERO stars, I would. My experience felt like a complete bait-and-switch…read more They use the word "emergency" while recommending one expensive test after another. When I repeatedly questioned whether all the proposed lab work was truly necessary, the veterinarian finally admitted that several tests were not necessary at that point and could wait. If I had not challenged the recommendations, would I have been charged for lab work my pet did not immediately need? I then asked to speak with the owner, who is also a veterinarian. Instead of addressing my concerns, she told me that the clinic has to make money to pay its overhead. I was stunned. I asked her directly whether that meant they take advantage of trusting customers who bring in their beloved family pets by recommending services that are not immediately necessary. She had no response. I also heard that the practice is moving into a larger facility. After being told that customers' money is needed to cover the clinic's overhead, I cannot help but question whether aggressive testing and excessive charges are helping finance that expansion!!!!! That is my personal concern based on what I experienced and what the owner said directly to me!! Veterinary recommendations should be based on what an animal medically needs--not on a clinic's overhead or expansion plans. Pet owners are frightened and vulnerable during an emergency, and they deserve honesty, transparency, and informed consent. I left feeling misled, taken advantage of, and unable to trust their recommendations. I will never return. Demand an itemized estimate, ask whether every test is immediately necessary, and consider getting a second opinion. Based on my experience, go here at your own financial risk!!!
