Thank you for taking such good care of Wilbur. He is petrified of the 2-block car ride but loves all the attention once he gets inside the clinic. Thank you!

We switched to this vet because we were unhappy with our current vet. We have never been happier. They finally diagnosed my dog correctly and have finally got her health doing good. Doctors and staff are always pleasant and friendly.

When i relocated to Jax. B in 2016, i reviewed several veterinarians to treat my Bichon. I was her Human and Dr. Kanes office helped care for her up until she was 16.4 yrs. Elsa is always informative and knowledgeable. It has been 16 months since I made the decision to give Molly a life she deserves in heaven. I feel guilty every day but today Dr. Kane put "my feelings" into understandable thoughts. She is a caring person in addition to a Competent veterinarian. Thank you very much for helping me.

Outstanding personalized care from the front desk/reception, scheduling, techs, and vets!!! I have moved around for 20 years in the military and been forced to change vets. By far, this is the best practice as far as care, communication, professionalism on every staff level! Kudos! All female vets, something is getting done right!

Everyone is most helpful, they come to your car in a timely manner. My poor dog had several issues and the Dr was most patient in answering my questions. We talked on the phone for over 10 minutes about what the best plan of action would be.I left feeling relieved that my dog had been in good hands
The office called me the next day to see how my baby was doing.My baby was feeling better already

Dr. McAlpin is top notch, she is very knowledgeable and compassionate. The technicians and front desk staff are very friendly and provided the best customer service. We have plenty of vets near our house but we prefer to travel 30+ minutes to be seen by Dr McAlpin. Highly recommend!
