I have always had positive and accommodating treatment from the office staff and all the vet techs and doctors as well. On my most recent routine visit we had an appointment with Dr. Johns and Hailey the vet tech was assisting us as well. Hailey was the sweetest and took her time to understand our situation and gave us useful information. As always Dr. Johns was pleasant and affable. She provided us with useful information and was never pushy on any course of treatments, etc. It should also be highlighted that the office is always clean and orderly. There is ample parking in the shopping center parking lot making it an easy experience. We appreciate the excellent staff at Sarasota Veterinary Center and will continue to return so that they can care for my senior dog.

Leaving a pet behind can be difficult, but the facility provided peace of mind from the moment of drop-off. The environment is described as a "pet's paradise". The grounds include spacious meadows and pine forest trails where dogs play and explore. LOLA appeared to enjoy the outdoor time. Beyond the facilities, the staff makes a difference especially Nick the Manager. The experienced and caring team treated LOLA like family, providing personalized attention, fun activities, and companionship. The 24/7 staff and a state-of-the-art veterinary hospital provided a sense of security if anything happened to our baby. Lola returned home happy, healthy, and relaxed, which is a testament to the care provided and happy to see her Family. Donte's Den is described as "The Best Place to be a Dog". The team is thanked for going above and beyond. The pet owner looks forward to the next "vacation."

My heart is broken! I adopted Levi from Donte's in April 23' with an $800 fee. He had been a part…read moreof a Puppy Mill rescue (so I was told) out of Miami. Levi had several health issues but we loved him all the more. We racked up thousands of dollars in Vet bills with several opinions from different vets ~ as to what was wrong with Levi. He was ultimately diagnosed with Immune-Mediated Hemolytic Anemia (IMHA) is a life-threatening autoimmune disease that occurs when a dog's immune system attacks its own red blood cells. Poor baby was just on and off again with meds, pills, potions and lotions with multiple vet visits etc. At one point, I was told by the Donte's Operations Mgr that they would take over ALL medical care for Levi. The owner, Marsha later called and told me she was not going to do this. Time and space will not permit me to list all the details of this terrible horror story! Long story short, I made a call to a staff member at Donte's who told me to bring him out there and they would examine and treat him. So, I scooped him up and headed out there. I was on the verge of a nervous breakdown, crying uncontrollably and took him out there in August. Unbeknown to me, in my total distress, weeping uncontrollably with Levi sick in my arms, I was given a piece of paper to sign that said I was "surrendering" Levi to them and could never have him back again. I had no idea that is what they had me sign. I called him every day to check on him and texted as well. I sent him all of the Vet medical records. He kept promising me that I could get Levi back but that he needed "a little more time with him to make sure he was well". I was given dates but that date never came. I have pages of text messages/emails going back and forth with them. I called there to see if I could pick Levi up and and was told that he did not work there anymore! I was in SHOCK ! I then called the owner immediately, Marcia and was told that my baby Levi had been adopted by someone. She wanted to know if "she could get us another Yorkie". Our family is devastated! I have never experienced such dishonesty and deception. They have NO COMPASSION. Our baby is GONE and we will never see him again. TODAY she posted a photo on their Facebook page of the new owner holding our baby Yorkie :( I have since found out that they have done this to others as well. They are liars and thieves. We do not know how to handle this at this time. Please do not trust these con artists there.

This urgent vet clinic opened at 12pm and I got there just as they were opening. They were quick to see me, friendly and professional, and also put me at ease.

It has been several hours since my visit and my dog has already regained her strength.

I've read previous reviews written up to 2 years ago, on here, with some good and some bad…read more I was recently in a predicament with my dog walker & my two dogs, (both were leashed) and one of my fur-boys was singled out & attacked by a larger loose dog that escaped through his (neighborhood) patio door. It was traumatic, for everyone. The entanglement of leashes with attack going on.... None-the-less, I was able to rush to the scene & get my fur-victim to urgent vet and found them to be very efficient with their electronic sign in, quick to places in a room, timely evaluation, much kindness, and great communication. I was offered a second and more thorough option of having x-rays read remotely, I prefer not to tag it as a "upsell"...(like one of the earlier reviews tagged ) simply because I think it is important & professional to have Urgent Vet cover all my options concisely. There is always such a fine line as the healthcare proxy/guardian of people or your animals that can't communicate on their own, to make the right decision on their behalf. I do not welcome prescriptions openly for my animals, without doing my own research on the pros and cons as well as my dogs personal history with medications. I am grateful for the professionalism extended, and the time they took to answer my questions. Our vet tech was wonderful. And we had a follow up call. I am sorry for those who had a negative visit. I hope Urgent Vet has recognized and continually strived to correct & make improvements since opening its doors in the past two years. My experience was worthy of this good review.

When I…read morepaid for everything in full, I was told the options for getting the ashes were pick up from my vet, USPS to my home, or pick up from the crematorium directly. ALL included in my paid in full price. The only option they did say would be an up charge, is hand delivery to my home. I chose to pick up from the crematorium directly. What particularly bothered me is there is no information for this place provided when you make the selection and pay for it. I was emailed at 3:59PM on Tuesday saying my dog was ready for pickup, that they ONLY allow pick ups between 2PM and 4:30PM Tuesdays and Thursdays but they can hand deliver for $80 or USPS for $40. USPS should have been a free option considering how I paid. It came off as very money hungry and they just want you to pay $80 more. I also spent $200 on a custom urn elsewhere because I did not like what I was shown is provided. I had no idea they offer other options until I arrived to pick up the ashes. The person at the place gave his condolences, but was also very cold and transactional with both me and the person ahead of me. I imagine they get a decent amount of business from their business relationship with lap of love, if they go through making a portal for your pet it would have been nice to show the urn options etc.
