What's wrong with it?

After my regular Veterinary place sold to a different owner, I decided to try here. The staff are super friendly and they all seem like a family. I am happy that services and medications aren’t pushed on you, and although the “vet” can be expensive, they seem to try and work out… Read the full review on Google (opens in new tab)

I really love this office, everyone there is so kind and helpful! I will be leaving my current vet in favor of having this office take care of my babies from now on! Long story short the emergency vet and my original vet wanted upwards of $900 to do some testing on my cat to see… Read the full review on Google (opens in new tab)

I am so glad I found Dr Matt after moving down here 10yrs ago. After being a Vet Tech in past years... but now retired.... I would trust him with any of my animals.

I drive 45 minutes each way to see Dr. Matt. I got an extra 3 years with my dog because of this man. There is nothing like an honest vet, he is in it for the animals. Thank you for always caring for my babies and always being honest with me even if it is a harsh reality. View on Google (opens in new tab)

Best vet in Central Florida, paws down! Most affordable, caring, thorough, doesn't try to sell you on things your pet doesn't need, and I wouldn't trust my dogs with anyone else! View on Google (opens in new tab)
