Best veterinarian in Deerfield Beach, Florida (FL) 2024

From the moment I parked my car, I had a gut feeling that I should take my dog elsewhere. I rang the door bell during their open business hours with no response. All the lights were off, I had to call the office in order for the staff to wake up to provide “emergency care”. It was clear that everyone had just woke up from their naps which made me uneasy as a health care provider. God forbid, I walked in with an animal that was severely injured/sick and had to wait for the staff to wake up to provide care. That is unacceptable! What really bothered me is when I heard the vet refer to my 25 lb French bulldog as “vicious” under his breath while I was in the waiting room and he requested that I place a muzzle on her which I had no problem with because my dog does not like when strangers touch her. It’s not what he said but rather how he said it and the tone he used. It was clear to me that all the staff had very little patience but maybe it was because I interrupted their naps. I would be grumpy too if I was sleeping and had to wake up suddenly to do my job. Anywho, the bill came and it was almost $1000 which I did not agree with so I decided to get care with another provider. $1000 for below average veterinary care. I highly recommend Coral Springs Animal Hospital if you have a choice and the time. The care they provided to my pet was amazing and I wouldn’t waste my time with this clinic unless you truly had no other choice. ~Cynthia
