VCA Spanish River Animal Hospital

I cannot express enough how wonderful my experiences have been at VCA Animal Hospital! From the moment I walk through the door, I am greeted by the warm and welcoming secretary, Lexi. She goes above and beyond to ensure that both my dog, Jax, and I feel comfortable and at ease. Her kindness and professionalism make every visit a pleasure. The pet technician, Janelle, is another gem at this clinic. She is incredibly sweet and always showers Jax with love and attention. Her calm demeanor and genuine affection for animals truly shine through, making each appointment a positive experience for both my pet and me. And let’s not forget about Dr. Greenland, the amazing veterinarian! His expertise and compassionate approach to care are unmatched. He takes the time to listen to my concerns and answers all my questions with patience and clarity. I feel confident that my furry friend is receiving the best possible care under his guidance. Overall, VCA Animal Hospital is a fantastic place for pet care, and I am grateful to have found such a dedicated team. If you're looking for a caring and professional environment for your beloved pets, look no further. Thank you, Lexi, Janelle, and Dr. Greenland, for all that you do!

They are the very best - caring and helpful always - life is easy when anything is needed - they also keep you informed as to what is medically needed for your animal. Most important "Princess" loves her visits and loves Dr. Greenland.

When our original VCA shut down we originally switched to Calusa. That facility is beautiful, but they were very slow to react when our dog had cancer and there was no continuity with doctors. About a year ago, we switched to this facility and are absolutely thrilled. We see the same veterinarian every time who remembers our dog and takes fantastic care of him. This is the best vet we’ve ever been to.

I’m giving 2 out of 5 stars because a couple of the staff members weren’t terrible, but overall my experience was disappointing. I understand every business needs to make money, but charging nearly 10× the fair price for a non-emergency prescription crosses the line from profit into pure greed. If you come here, do yourself a favor — ask for the written prescription and fill it elsewhere.

I have used VCA Spanish River vet for years and have always had excellent experiences. Yesterday I had to say goodbye to my 17 year old pug. Dr. Greenland and his staff were outstanding. They respected our privacy and the staff, including Dr. Greenland, was very professional and empathetic. He explained the whole process and it went smoothly. Sad day for me, but the experience was as good as it could have been. Thank you Dr. Greenland and the staff for making a tough day a bit better. -Reid Rago (Boca Raton, FL)

All the reviews about them being money hungry is absolutely accurate. I have joked with my fiancé that its literally like car shopping when you go in there. They try to charge you for things you don't need such as dog food to go with their medication. i guess they don't think i have dog food.. They told me the only medication to help my dog throwing up was a shot that was 275$ then i responded back saying i will not give my dog a shot, asked what the other options were, said i could give him oral medication that was 60$ but with an attitude since i didnt go along with their agenda. i wasn't getting bullied to spend over 1k for a vet visit for my dog throwing up. front desk staff is friendly i will say that but i have to believe someone is making commission there i gave them a few chances to see if it was just the dr but nope its all of them..

Money hungry!!!! Will tell you one thing over the phone and then when you bring your animal in, it's a completely different story and you will end up paying way more than what they initially tell you. Called regarding a urine test for cat, was told I could get the take home test and pay when I bring the sample back. My cat was too smart to use the litter provided for the take home test, so I called and asked if they would be able to obtain a sample in person. They said yes no problem it will still be the same price. Get there and wait 30 minutes just to go into an exam room, have a "vet" examine my cat for less than 5 minutes, and then proceed to tell me they don't do urine tests in the office unless you're paying for other services as well. They then turned around and made me pay $150 for this "exam" even though at multiple times I had asked what service I was exactly paying for. I signed "not in agreement" when handed the documents to sign, paid, and then called the financial manager of this location to dispute it. They were unwilling to refund me and made a big ordeal when I went to dispute it through my bank. My cat ended up having an extreme case of bladder crystals and was in high amounts of pain, and all these people cared about was money, and they were fine letting me walk out knowing that I did not receive an actual diagnosis or receive any veterinary services. Because as long as their paycheck comes they don't care about your animal. Absolute hell of a vet clinic. Wouldn't recommend any VCA either, as they claim to be a national chain but have no national number to file complaints.
