I'm usually able to get an appointment pretty quickly whenever my new pup has an issue, and they're pretty reasonably priced compared to the other vets I've been to since being in Florida. They will show you prices for everything prior to performing anything, and they've also given me different alternatives with different pricing if I wasn't looking to spend an arm and a leg on a procedure.

Michigan Street Animal hospital is a place that cares for animals and their owners. I have been…read morebringing my pets to this location for years. Dr Mansour has been someone I can trust to do a thorough exam and in tough times share the honest truth about my dogs condition. If you take your pets here on a regular basis, the shots are competitive to clinics offered at Walgreens and pet stores, except your pet is seen by a real Vet. They take appointments and also walk ins. My dog had a serious illness and the office was closed when he was so bad that I had to put him to sleep. Even though they did not handle this part of my pet's lifecycle, they sent me a nice sympathy card. They have their own pet's you might see while visiting the clinic. Recently I met a lady in the waiting room. She was fostering an animal for a rescue and shared how the staff had been attentive and helped her even though the charity was not understanding the animal's issues. Reasons why I recommend this Vet Clinic: 1) Years of experience 2) They will help work you in if they can the same day you contact them 3) Caring staff that have a customer and pet first attitude. They have the chart out and address you and the Pet by name. 4) In the age where you can do a lot of tests, they try to help you and obtain the tests that are necessary. When they feel additional testing is required, they present the options and possible outcomes to help you decide. I love that they take the time with each pet owner. I know another reviewer was not happy with an experience but I find that they do fact based diagnosis. I did get a new dog and before they saw her they asked that I bring any available vaccination and documentation so that we would not redo shots and they could pick the best treatment plan. If you are looking for a great Vet choose Michigan Street. It looks like a small building from the street, but it serves a staff with a big heart. They offer overnight care and surgery as well.

I just wanted to take a moment to thank Dr. Ehlers for the kindness and care you showed Ezra and I…read moreover the years. Navigating the later stages of a senior dog's life can be incredibly emotional, and you made every step feel manageable, thoughtful, and safe. From the beginning, I felt a level of trust and comfort that meant more to me than I can put into words. As the owner of a pitbull, finding a veterinarian who treats us with compassion and without judgment has not always been easy, so the relief of feeling truly supported in your care was profound. You never rushed us, you explained things with patience, and you handled every situation with such gentleness and respect. Because of you, my dog's final years were filled with dignity and love, and I was able to face difficult decisions knowing we were in the best possible hands. You made me feel confident in every decision I made even the hardest ones. I also want to extend my gratitude to the entire staff. It was so meaningful that so many of you would pop into the room just to greet Ezra, even when you weren't working with him that day. Those small moments of kindness made us feel genuinely cared for and never forgotten, and they meant more to me than you may realize. Thank you for everything you did for him, and for me. I will always be grateful. -Selah Lloyd

I came here around 9:00 p.m. because our regular vet was closed. My dog was having symptoms that…read moreneeded immediate attention and they were able to get us in. As soon as we walked in they took him back and we were in a room within the first 5 minutes. Overall, we ended up spending about two and a half hours here. The front desk staff was friendly and so was the vet. The technician was kind of cold but it was late at night so maybe that attributed to it. Also there was a dead cockroach in the bathroom and a lot of dust and pet hair in the exam room. My youngest ended up needing to take allergy medicine when we got home because of all of the dander. That's why I took one star off. I do like that they have a treat area for people who are waiting for their pet.

He had been declining the past few weeks, and the night before it was evident he was ready. He used to love car rides, but over the previous year they made him incredibly anxious. I tried to arrange an in-home service, but they were all booked beyond where he could continue peacefully. I called EOAH and they were kind and fit me in. The ride over was absolutely horrible. He was so terrified. Once there I brought him in. I asked for a sedative, because he was having horrific anxiety. They told me they needed to take him back to put a line in so they could administer the Euthanasia drugs. I asked if I could stay with him. They agreed and put us in a room. A tech and assistant came in to put the line in. It was horrendous. Knox flailed so hard. He was terrified. It took them ten minutes to get the line in. There was blood smeared all over the floor, and he was in a state I had never witnessed before. Again I asked for a sedative. They said the Dr. would be right in. About 10 minutes later she did. Knox never settled down. He was so distressed. She started the process where they give a sedative to almost knock them out. He finally dropped in my arms and appeared to be out. She left so I could say goodbye. Not 45 seconds after she left,he got up and was in hard distress again. I started yelling for assistance. Finally an assistant came in to tell me the Dr. would be back shortly. When the Dr. returned, she administered another sedative and then the final drug. He was gone. I have gone through this process with several of my dogs in the past. Never have any of them had such an awful departing. I spoke to my good friend who is a vet out of state. She was horrified they didn't give him a sedative immediately, before they attempted to put the line in his leg. It was so simple. I asked over and over. They didn't care. There was ZERO empathy for what he was clearly going through. My last memories of him haunt me. I was supposed to take care of him. I will never forgive East Orlando Animal Hospital for the egregious way they handled his leaving. It was completely unnecessary and easily preventable.

I do not recommend this vet clinic and honestly I'm very concerned about the care and communication…read morehere. During a visit for my 11-year-old dog, I was by Dr. MacDonald that my dog has liver cancer with multiple tumors, congestive heart failure and that euthanasia should be considered. No biopsy or referral to a specialist was offered and I was not shown or walked through the ultrasound results. I was told no follow-up appointments were needed and was given euthanasia pamphlets. I left completely devastated. After the visit, I called the clinic requesting my dog's records. Because the file is under another name, communication had to go through that person. When we received the records, they did not mention cancer or the ultrasound findings. We were initially told the ultrasound recordings were not available. I had to request the records again through email and specifically ask for the ultrasound findings. Eventually, we received notes referencing a "suspected" liver or splenic mass and stating that my dog was vomiting which was not true. The notes also mentioned seeing a specialist if interested but this was never discussed during the visit. I also had major difficulties with my dog's heart medication. I was told that refills typically take 24 to 48 hours and that heart medications are usually expedited. Since refills cannot be processed over the weekend, we had to wait until Monday to call. We emphasized that this was a heart-related medication, were told the request would be expedited and submitted the request on 12/22 around 8:15 a.m. It took two days and a call from the office /practice manager before we could pick up her medication on Christmas Eve. Because of the delay, we had to go to VEG to get my dog's medication and she was in distress. Since starting the treatment plan we had to request because we did not agree to euthanasia, my dog has been doing great. She is eating, drinking, playing and going to the bathroom normally. We were referred to an internal medicine specialist and a cardiologist by another vet for a second opinion. The internal medicine specialist confirmed that my dog does NOT have cancer and walked us through each ultrasound finding step by step. We also have an upcoming appointment with the cardiologist. Our experience highlighted serious concerns. The first suggestion was euthanasia rather than further investigation. No referrals or second opinions were offered. Communication around records and critical medication was slow and inconsistent. While the staff may have had good intentions, this experience has been distressing and costly. My dog is doing well thanks to proper follow-up care but I hope the clinic takes steps to prevent similar situations for other pet owners.

REVIEW DATE: 1/22/24…read more TLDR: Take your furry family members elsewhere. This place has gone downhill, and I won't be coming back after bringing my two cats and my mother-in-law's cat here for over a decade. Please note, I RARELY write bad reviews, but after the last three months, I'm writing this review of Winter Garden Animal Hospital. THE REVIEW: My husband brought my 14 year old cat in for a routine follow-up. He was asked about labs, including a more expensive comprehensive blood test for geriatric cats. My husband declined since our cat had been doing alright. He was losing weight, but we figured it was due to age. This was the Monday after Thanksgiving. We never got lab results back, and we never heard back from the vet. In our mind (living with a newborn baby of our own), no news was good news. Well, that turned out to be a big mistake. Fast forward several weeks later ... Our cat was not eating and looked sick. We scheduled an appointment. When I called for the appointment, I asked for a copy of the labs. I didn't get them. So I called again, and again, I did not get them. I took him to the vet on Friday, and by this point, he was extremely sick. Oh, by the way, they tried to CANCEL my appointment 30 minutes before it was scheduled. (Their excuse was continuity of care. That's fine except they should have planned it when I was scheduling - not 30 minutes before.) We didn't know what was going on with my cat. It turns out he was in end-stage kidney disease. He had been on a steroid for inflammation, which likely accelerated the kidney disease progression. I asked to speak with the office manager, Nicole, in between the vet tech coming in/out. Nicole told me that they hadn't gotten the lab results until the day before the visit. She also kept going back to the fact that the vet was concerned by the initial labs (which she had also said they hadn't gotten earlier in this conversation) and asked to run the expensive labs we had declined. However, I think the most important point of this is, which Nicole later admitted, how unacceptable it was that we were not informed about the abnormal lab results. This was egregious in my mind. We trust that the practice would look out for our furry family members. When the vet tech came back in, I asked to see the paper chart. I went over the results with the vet. I am not a doctor... I am not a vet. But when I saw his lab results, everything was abnormal. My cat's comprehensive lab results came back THE DAY AFTER the sample was sent to the lab. So his kidney had been in decline for two weeks, and nothing was done to tell us. At this point, I knew how dire the situation was, but I had hope. I understood that there was no transplant for cats. They recommended starting IV fluids and monitoring him overnight. We followed their advice because what else could we do. But I asked to speak with Nicole again. She then said that she relied on what the vet staff had said to her about the labs. Nicole promised me that she'd look into it. The end of our story at this practice is that we said goodbye to our cat the next day. Why we are chosing to move on is because of the failures that led up to this. Imagine my surprise when I get a call from the office... only to tell me that my cat's remains were there. I never got a call from the office manager who had told me that she'd look into it. It has been a month. I've been patient and waited until after the holidays. I've asked to speak with her twice, but my calls have gone unanswered (ten days in between). When I went in to pick up my cat's paw print, I asked about my other cat's lab results. Well, they couldn't find her chart. They had to print out the electronic copy. (Think about it, they have two avenues to get labs? Fax and electronically? There's just no excuse for what happened.) Once upon a time, I would have recommended this practice in a heartbeat. But now, I'd recommend looking elsewhere. At the end of my time here, I felt like this was just a dollar sign for them to make money off of. I will say someone complimented Missy, and she was the only one to follow up with what she promised (getting me an answer to a diet question for my other cat).
