Not employee friendly at all. Animals rarely get play time, if ever. Meds get mixed with other animals almost daily by bringing in untrained random new hires. Felines rarely leave the 1x1 1/2 cage. Broke my heart View on Facebook (opens in new tab)

Definitely not ‘dedicated to quality medicine, compassion and service’ to a Venice visiting dog a couple hours b4 closing (early) for a holiday weekend. You gotta prioritize 😉. View on Facebook (opens in new tab)

We brought our dog over to Dr Molly a couple years ago and have had nothing but positive experiences with them. They are conscientious and sincere and even though she is a Gator, we couldn't think of anything better for our little guy. View on Facebook (opens in new tab)
