I don't know, hard to be the one in a bunch of glowing reviews, but: Brought our cat here for allergy issues. They gave us an antibiotic that immediately caused chronic and horrible diarrhea everywhere... to the point where when we called them 3 days later, they said to immediately stop giving him the med. Then, for 2 weeks after we stopped giving the med, the cat continued to have bad diarrhea and refused to eat. So hey. bring him in and we'll charge you a fee and we'll sell you prescription food. Ok. So another 2 weeks after that and the cat STILL has chronic diarrhea and now they want to do blood tests, another visit fee... and give him a different antibiotic???? And shrugged the whole thing off as 'it happens sometimes with this drug'. My wife has the patience for this kind of BS, I do not. I will scour Central Florida until I find a vet that doesn't nickel and dime us to the point of doing more harm than good to our pet. If this is the 'high standard' other reviewers are talking about, then all our pets are doomed to suffer. I have to put my foot down once more and tell my wife: We'll find another vet. One whose solution to a problem isn't to cause MORE problems. read more

Let me tell you something about my cat: she's a real diva. Every cat stereotype that's out there, she's basically that. So when it came time to bring her to the vet I was biting my nails with anxiety. She's my baby and I was worried for her AND I was worried for the people that would have to deal with her. Now I ended up not going along for the appointment but I got a surprising report back from my boyfriend. I guess the staff knew how to win her over. She didn't hiss or scratch at anyone and she even came out of her crate. I was told they said they wished more cats were like her! Talk about my mind being blown. We took her to the emergency vet prior and she hissed at the vet when she hadn't even touched her yet. The emergency vet said she'd probably have to be sedated when she'd see her normal vet. However, they didn't have to sedate her because they knew how to handle her and did such a fabulous job with her. The visit was quick and painless and they were out in a few minutes. The emergency clinic recommended Westmonte and I'm glad they did! read more

Dr. Lisa is amazing and her staff is amazing. They treat our animals as if they were their own. They are aware of any financial issues and always discuss those upfront before any treatments (it gets kind of pricey when you have an elder cat, an elder rescue, and a rambunctious scallywag like our young cat. Having 3 quadrupeds is pricey but they've always found a way to fit our budget) What's even worse if you have 3 cats and they all have dietary needs and allergies! Dr. Lisa fixed that for us through a lot of trial and error. We worked with her to find the correct food to feed all of our cats. I can't even believe in this day and age, they take the time out to call to follow up and personally call after an appointment just to ask how any of our little quadrupeds is amazing. They really do care. The quality and customer service lays in how great they treat their animals patients. My husband and I adopted a rescue and they have taken care of him with kid gloves. He's a smush faced short haired Persian named Sampson, he's a little bit weathered and he'll need attention for life - but they understand that. I think Sampson loves Dr. Lisa too. :) Honestly, there is no other place we would take our pets. read more

I recently adopted an amazing pup that had a few health issues and I unfortunately did not know of any good (& decently priced vets) in the area since I recently moved to Orlando. I asked around and looked on Yelp & decided to book an appointment at Westmonte Animal Clinic. I originally brought in Pepper for her spay but was unable to do so because of a few health issues that I was unaware of but Dr. Matagrano noticed right away. Pepper is on the road to being once healthy canine thanks to the care provided by Dr. Matagrano & her staff. They are always so sweet with my pup and explain everything thoroughly. They also bring you the bill before just in case you have any questions & you won't have any surprises during checkout. They also wave the exam fee if you bring your rescue within 2 weeks of being adopted so that was a nice surprise. Pepper actually likes going to the vet so that should speak for itself. But then again she does love everyone :) read more

Very pleasant personnel! The doctor was friendly and accommodating. The waiting area and exam room were clean and comfortable. I recommend this clinic! read more

Vet is compassionate, no nonsense. Staff is very friendly. They aee same day ers, except on wed. Would recommend highly.

You are going to LOVE this practice. I first came to Dr. Matagrano for a second opinion and am really glad I did. Not only did she run the tests I requested (other vet said they were unnecessary and they never do them), but she called me in person to celebrate the fact that I had been right: the first diagnosis that would put my dog on meds for life, was erroneous. My dog is a people-dog and he loves these people. This is a vet who listens and brings current medical knowledge to the treatment of her patients. Oh, on my first call, the receptionist answered with "Is this an emergency or may I place you on a brief hold?" (and it was brief) How great is that? read more

I recently rescued my pup from Orange County Animal Services and had to find a new vet for her. Thankfully, I'd always pass this one since it's so close to home. I checked out all of the positive reviews and decided to give it a shot. To my surprise, they waive the first exam fee for rescued dogs within 2 weeks of adoption. HOW AWESOME IS THAT!? The vet and staff were absolutely amazing while we were there. To make things even sweeter, they called me the next day to check on my new pup AND sent me a welcome card in the mail within the week! Definitely recommend! read more

The first few times I took my cat here I was extremely happy. However, economic things came to pass and I wasn't even taking myself to the doctor let alone my cat. Priorities being what they are I took my cat, Tyson, to the doctor before myself because he has developed a foggy eye with a growth (hopefully just a cataract). The vet took a look and was without a dang clue. She said she had to check her eye book or cat book...At the end of the visit nearly 400 or 500 dollars later I'm told, yeah Uhm he's probably fine...let us know if he starts to seem bothered by the foggy eye. I give two stars because this vet told me to take him off evil Blue Buffalo food and he's been much more active since. My cat is still half blind though and she didn't seem to give half a crap... soooooooo, make you're own decisions from there. read more

Freaking impossible to deal with. Like dealing with a "sheltered workshop" not knowledgeable about basic procedure and ready to jack up the price. The glowing reviews must either be from relatives, staff or people she owes money. Pass! read more

I am so happy we found this place. I am a new puppy-mom so I found Westmonte thru great reviews and I am not disappointed! They are very loving towards the animals and give great new fur-parent advice. read more

We started taking our dog Buddy to Westmonte Animal Clinic right after we adopted him from Seminole County Animal shelter. We find the staff there to be very professional and very nice. They treat Buddy as he was a member of their family. The office is very clean and I did not notice that strong odor that I remember experiencing at other Vet offices we have used in the past. The prices for services seem to be on par with other clinics in the area charge. If you have a new pet, or are currently looking for a new veterinarian for your four legged child, then I recommend that you give Dr Matagrano and her staff a try. read more

Our thirteen-year-old female cat was starting to pass blood clots, so for the first time in a long time, she went to the vet. The reviews brought me to Westmonte and I couldn't be happier. They diagnosed a bladder infection, pumped her full of fluids and antibiotics and the improvement was almost immediate. She had a followup today and still has the infection, but it's improved. She goes back in two weeks. Can't say enough about Dr Lisa, Heather and Bianca, who keep you abreast of everything, from treatment to cost, each step of the way. And most importantly, they have great personalties and "bedside" manner. While it is getting expensive, that's kind of a necessary evil. For a cat who hasn't given us a lick of trouble for basically her entire life, she's worth it. read more

After having not-so-good experiences at another vet, I decided to bring my cat to this clinic when he contracted an upper respiratory infection from my new kitten. The staff and the doctor were awesome. You can tell they really care about the animals. Even better, a few weeks letter we received a really nice card from them, welcoming us to the clinic. I highly recommend! read more

Awesome people. really like them a lot. My dog had been diagnosed with pancreatitis. Dr Matagrano did a great job helping us identify the problem and how to rectify it. They helped us develop a new diet and now Charley is in great shape. I highly recommend them. read more

I rescued my cat Cosmo less than two weeks ago from the Orange County Animal Shelter and he was having some definite issues- though not in personality though :) I had never had an animal before and was clueless as to how vet visits go and what happens with them (expectations, fees, what to bring, etc.). Upon entering Westmonte I felt so welcomed- the staff all care 100%, everyone is personable and professional, and there is a true warmth to their care. They followed up personally and even sent a lovely card in the mail. Highly recommend! I have decided that even though they're in another county they're who I want caring for my pal. :) read more

Wow what a drastic change from our last vet! We adopted our pup in May and used the vet who the rescue used, both for convenience and because we trusted the rescue's pick. That vet was ok but boy, the difference is light and day with Dr. Matagrano! We were seen promptly and we could hear the front desk verifying who you are AND who your pet is/why the pet was being seen. The waiting area and individual exam rooms were so clean. They informed us of the vet tech's name and the vet tech was awesome! She got down on the floor and played with my pup before doing any exams to make sure she was comfortable being touched by a stranger. Then Dr. Matagrano came in and also got down and played with my pup before doing her own exam. My pup was SO happy from beginning to end (except when they left the room, she cried for them to come back!), the entire staff really cares about animas and took the time to make me and my pup feel special and important. We came in for a heart worm test and preventative meds. Dr. Matagrano explained everything and we especially love that she is pro "less chemicals in the body the better" when it came to our pup. read more

I have never met a more caring vet than Dr. Lisa. My dog, Bailey, actually enjoys coming here. The staff is very caring and efficient. I highly recommend bringing your pets here. read more

my wife took our dog for skin infection 3 times and paid about $800.infection never went away and all they had to say was bring it back in for other appointment. that would cost another 200 something she told them she just lost her job due to cancer and they said nothing they can do about it. These people are a money pit they do not care for the animals. read more

We were on a pricey wellness plan that we cancelled last year at another vet. I took in my 4-year-old dog for a check-up and vaccinations to Westmonte Animal Clinic and I am so glad I did. The staff was knowledgeable, friendly, timely and very honest about what my dog actually needed or could do without. I felt like the cost was very reasonable compared to our old plan. I would recommend going to Westmonte Animal Clinic! read more

I love Dr. Matagrano and her staff. Rosebud, my very vocal beagle, is always given the best love and care. She has had some issues through the years and they always get her back on track to good health. The office hours are great and always easy to get an appointment. I would highly recommend this vet to your furry child! read more

The staff are so accommodating and friendly to both me and my dog! They also let you know what to expect to be charged for any treatment prior to receiving the treatment. I've been able to schedule emergency appointments without a problem and that's so important when you need one. They also call after every appointment for follow up to make sure we are all doing ok. read more

I took my two cats to Westmonte after having a horrible experience at another vet. Dr. Matagrano was so nice! She was very thorough in her exam and I trusted her recommendations. The office was very clean and easy to find. The prices were very reasonable, and we will continue to use her as our vet! read more

I brought my new rescue dog in to get spayed by Dr. Matagrano this week and was very impressed. She was very kind, funny, and thorough. She took the time to do a full exam on my dog and found problems like a skin infection that the prior vet completely missed. The poor puppy had been scratching like crazy and thanks to Dr. Matagrano, she is finally on the mend! The doctor suggested we postpone her spay until her skin infection had time to heal, which I found thoughtful and wise. I will definitely be returning to her and would highly recommend her to anyone who is looking for a caring, intelligent vet! read more

We moved to Orlando about two years ago and have been struggling with finding a good doctor for our 13 yr old Pekingese. His health has always been a major concern due to his heart murmur. In Feb he took ill and we visited two other doctors who not only charges us a combination of 2k, but also provided no assistance. It got to the point where we were about to put him down since we believed he was suffering and stopped eating. Finding Westmonte was a life saver for my 13yr old dog. The staff here has been helpful in keeping him alive and correctly diagnosed him. After our visit here and getting on a good regimen, his hair grew back and he was once again walking around. We don't live close, but we refuse to take him to another Veterinarian and will continue to bring him ha read more
