Dr Kehoe does not rush and is very thorough. They don't try and "sell" a bunch of tests. They lay out why they think it's warranted and let you make a decision. No pressure but always compassionate. The staff does turn over a bit as I am sure it is a tough job seeing pets in all sorts of situations, but the Dr is that constant you can count on. This last visit the new staff all came out to meet our pup. Definitely worth our drive over the bridge to get our furrbabies the best care possible.

Let me start by saying that this review of Premier Vet, Dr. Roger Melton, and his excellent staff…read moreis 5 out of 5 stars. My dog Bandit tore his CCL the last week of July 2025. Bandit is an allergy dog, so I'm very aware of his ailments and what to do. A CCL tear was not on my radar. I went to my local vet because I initially thought it was a sprain or possibly something was in his foot. The local vet diagnosed him with a CCL tear and told me the "GOLD STANDARD" is a TPLO. I conducted my research and came across a TikTok video titled, "Why I regret my dog's TPLO surgery." I began to explore alternatives and came across Dr. Melton and the Tightrope Method. I narrowed my search to two vets--a practice just north of Boston and Premier Vet. I contacted both practices, and Dr. Melton got on the phone with me to explain the procedure and the pros and cons of the other methods (there are several, including TPLO, MMP, Tightrope, Zlig, etc.). A doctor willing to speak to you before you become a patient is rare, and it was the deciding factor for my dog, Bandit. I agreed to have Dr Melton perform surgery on my 8-year-old Parson Terrier. We arrived for surgery, met Dr. Melton, and over several hours, Dr. Melton's team prepped Bandit for surgery. Bandit went in at 12 p.m. and by 3 p.m., he was ready to go home. Dr. Melton discovered another issue during surgery on Bandit that could have led to a future knee problem. Overall, Dr. Melton and his team are professional and courteous, taking the extra time to explain everything to you, and his prices are more than reasonable and fair for a surgery (plus follow-up). The recovery time for a TPLO is 12 weeks, and it requires sedation for the majority of that time. Bandit was up and walking the next day. It's been two months, and he's running around with his brothers, going for walks, and being his usual happy self. I went back to Dr. Melton for another procedure for Bandit, and that went wonderfully as well. Dr. Melton is not only a great veterinarian, but he also speaks to you, allowing you to ask questions, challenge him, and I appreciate him (and his team). Thank you, Premier Vet, Dr. Melton, Sharon, and your entire team. David G (and Bandit)

This last time was for a second opinion on a surgery my vet said my dog needed for ear surgery. This vet said nope. Doesn't need. Just as i suspected.

Dr. Rubio was recommend to us by the Friends of the Animals Sanctuary Thrift Shoppe staff and we…read moreare very happy with his skills, honesty and decency! He takes time to listen and to explain to the customer/patient what the problem is and offers recommendations. He does NOT upsell or try to create additional charges and his fees/prices seem fair and reasonable. His staff is friendly and I especially like Alyssa. We went to several vets in the last six months because we are relatively new to the area. Most of the other veterinarians did not bother to talk to us directly or even on the phone to explain the problem. One other vet had an estimate for the biopsy and surgery prepared and handed to us by a staff member without any discussion or explanation - and the estimate for both combined procedures was several hundreds of dollars HIGHER than at Dr. Rubio's Pet Hospital. Since we have five adopted/rescued little shelter dogs, money is an issue, too. We are happy we have found Dr. Rubio and he will be the regular veterinarian!

I'll start off by saying, kudos for being open on Christmas for emergencies like our car accident…read moresituation. But that's about all I'll say positive about our experience here. The front intake staff was good and friendly. The facility was clean and safe. If your pet has diarrhea or vomiting, this so called "hospital" can probably help you in an emergency with fluids and pills. It seems that's where their "hospital" supplies and support end. We sat in the front lobby for 3-1/2 hours because the "triage" nurse had our dog with a fully broken leg from a car accident listed as "stable and ok". We got pushed back for 2 other pets that came during that wait time. One did seem to be real emergency and needed help ASAP.Once we got in a room, the nurse spent a few minutes checking heart rate, eyes, tummy, then the leg. Also made us check weight a second time because someone forgot to write 34.7 kg down. No other body checks for a dog who was in a car accident. Doctor vet finally came in 30-45 minutes later and said "that's for sure broken, sorry I should have gotten to you sooner but he was listed as stable and ok on the chart". Even though he cried in pain for 3 hours in lobby. After spending a minute or maybe 90 seconds looking at him, she ordered "x-rays". Fully sedated our dog with anesthesia for an hour and only took ONE UNCLEAR XRAY! They took no blood or urine samples to check his body out. Dr came back in said "he needs a surgeon and we don't have one until next year". Then said with his arthritis, it would make surgery difficult. Handed us a list of other hospitals and specialists they knew of from Jupiter to Orlando to Gainesville to as to help us. Then gave us $667 bill for one xray, 2 prescriptions for pain, and splinter for the leg. No directions on how to help his leg stay stabilized except "put him in kennel". The next day after calling all their people on the list the next day, including the University of Florida we were told no one was staffed for a bone surgery for the holidays. Luckily I found a bone specialist down in Vero Beach who took us in Saturday. After reading the treatment summary and calling you guys, his staff and him could not believe that you guys only took ONE UNCLEAR XRAY of a small part of the leg. No blood or urine samples at all. With the specialist we got 7 xrays of the legs and 2 of the spine and chest without anesthesia! We were only there for 1-1/2 hours as well and they have a surgeon who can do surgery. On their xray array they also caught a prostate issue. That is how you give pets good care, is by actually checking them out fully. If you have something simple like dehydration or vomiting, these people can probably help. But if you want real useful healthcare with actual hospital style supplies and staff, I'd strongly suggest finding a more appropriate emergency hospital. After waiting so long and getting one xray and a splint then kicked down the road to a real vet hospital, I'd never return here again. I truly feel they owe me a full refund for at least the xrays, as they didn't even accomplish that simple task fully, and I had to pay to have them redone. PS The bone specialist said nothing about arthritis making this fix difficult.

We cannot say enough wonderful things about Rockledge Specialty & Emergency Hospital and the care…read morethey have given our baby cat, Eddie!!! His journey has NOT been simple, and they have supported us medically and emotionally every step of the way. Eddie came in very sick, and instead of guessing or rushing, the team took a very thoughtful and thorough approach. He had so many things done, including staying overnight multiple times, an echocardiogram, ultrasounds, blood work, PCV checks, and multiple rounds of testing to try to understand what was happening. It was all soooo confusing as to what was wrong with him, but the team never gave up. They carefully ruled things out, explained results clearly, and never made us feel rushed or like our questions were a burden. Eventually, the doctors shared that Eddie might be facing FIP or lymphoma which was so scary to hear - but they walked us through what that meant, what treatment options existed, and what to expect. They were honest, compassionate, and hopeful in all the right ways. We had the FIP medication overnighted and started it immediately, and have seen amazing results! This would not have been possible without Dr. Smith's intellect and dedication. Along the way, the staff constantly reminded us how much they loved Eddie and how sweet he is, which meant so much especially on the hard days. He has always been treated like a loved patient, not just "another cat." We were especially touched when Dr. Smith came in during his Thanksgiving break to care for Eddie when he needed treatment. That kind of commitment is rare, and we will never forget it!! Today, Eddie is gaining weight, healing, and slowly getting stronger, and we truly believe we wouldn't be here without the careful, dedicated care from this hospital. We are deeply grateful for the doctors, technicians, and staff at this hospital. If you are looking for a veterinary team that combines outstanding medical knowledge with genuine compassion and heart, this is the place to go!!! Thank you to everyone who works there! Love EDDIE, Mom Frankie, & Dad Joe

Made an appoint at RAC for a follow up and let Dr Corsbie know I was dissatisfied with the front staff, she told me she would have a talk with the owners. Yesterday I noticed Lexi acting strangely and she had peed in the house, thats not her, urine was off color and she was going quite often, so I suspected a UTI, called RAC for an appointment, another 24 hour wait. Back to the Emergency Hospital, as suspected, she had a UTI, I explained to the vet what had happened and was told it was a good thing I brought her in, quite painful. He also stated that if he was her vet he would have fit her in. After researching the internet, it said an animal should be seen by a vet immediately if a UTI is suspected. After explaining what was going on to the person on the phone and telling her I was not going to wait another day and I was taking her to the Emergency hospital, her reply, have a nice day. So, after using RAC for 35 + years, I am done with the excessive appointment ( overbooking) wait time, huge turnover on the front desk, and the ditz, who should have asked the Dr if my dog should have been seen, instead of getting " have a nice day".
