Westchase Veterinary Center and Emergency

Very pleased with this clinic!!! I’ve been so skeptical due to previous vet visits. I have a kitten that was adopted and feral. Still not domesticated per se. I was so scared that she would be traumatized by this visit but she had to go due to a UTI. They were so good with her. I thought they would need gloves and that there would be a bloodbath. They took their time and handled it so nicely. She was standing still and was not rough handled at all. Thank you guys!

We came to Westchase for care for our senior dog, Angus. We are snowbirds, so we didn’t have anyone local for vet care. During our time in Tampa, Angus’ health deteriorated. So, at 16 we had to make the hard choice to give our pup the best possible send-off as he crossed the Rainbow Bridge. When we came for care we knew we would probably be making that decision in the near future, but didn’t realize it would be so soon. The staff and doctors at Westchase were awesome. Dr. Espinoza spent quality time with us and discussed options for care at Angus’ stage of life. She gave us sound options and advice. When we eventually had to make our decision, everyone was so kind to us. This is not the first time we have had to send off a loved pet, but it was probably one of the best experiences we have had with the process. I can’t begin to express how grateful we were for the compassion we were shown during our time of grief. We would definitely recommend Westchase Veterinary.

Received loving and compassionate care provided by Dr. Mastin on helping my cat cross the rainbow bridge. It is the most difficult and painful day for a fur baby's family and their love and respect to help you through this process was the best I've ever experienced. And Dr. Rhodes provided excellent care throughout his long life! Everyone on the staff is friendly and helpful-open on weekends and accommodates last minute appointments.

Psycho Stalker working there, calling me after hours screaming at me and yelling out my address. My pets are established patients and when I called to see if we could get an emergency appointment, I was told to call an ER - I said but you guys advertise ER - the girl got huffy and hung up. I called back to ask them to email my pets records, but the girl wouldn't let me speak and hung up. I tried a third time and another girl answered - said the doctor had to review before they could release the records then hung up. How vindictive can they be, especially during an emergency. A few hours pass by and the girl who answered the first two times calls my daughter screaming at my daughter, thinking it's me, and yelling out my home address. The psycho girl then has another psycho female call my daughter to yell and scream. This entire time I'm at another vet clinic. Obviously, this young girl, is emotionally fragile, immature, unhinged and probably needs a 'safe space' because she's never been disciplined. I did email management asking them to get the name of my stalker but they're playing it off as they can't seem to find the person. Really, they can't look at the schedule and see who was working? In summary - your private information is not safe there. The employees will use your personal information such as name, address and phone number and share it with others!

New to this vet and found them when I was desperate 2 find one due 2 my dog needing urgent care so gave them a try and wow was I super impressed with all the staff and pricing. And brought both dogs 2 the appt and they both were still and relaxed!! They were NOT shaking or drooling or cowarding behind me. Think I found my new veterinary!!

Have been taking my dog here for the past few years and have greatly appreciated all the staff here. From what I have experienced they truly care about the wellbeing of your pet, they are honest and compassionate when it comes to care. Scheduling and communication is a breeze. I moved 45 minutes away from this location and I still make the trip because I trust their service, and will continue to bring my pets here . I recommend them highly.

After moving from the NY area to Palm Harbor with my 6 year old Great Dane in the summer of 2019, I did a thorough online and in-person search for a local vet. Westchase Veterinary and Emergency Center stood out from the others for its state of the art facility, well-trained professional staff of receptionists, incredibly compassionate and capable vet techs, and experienced veterinarians. Sadly, I recently lost my dog, but I am so grateful to everyone at Westchase Veterinary Center, notably Dr. Kristi Rhodes, Megan, and Rachel, for providing exceptional and loving care to him for the last three years. From its extensive hours of operation and services to the administration and billing, I never experienced problems or had a complaint. In fact, I often commented to friends and family that I wished my own doctors' practices were as capable and well-managed! On a scale of 1 to 10, they deserve a 10.
