    Love, love, love this place. They rescue, rehab, and release injured sea turtles of all ages. They provide a 90 minute guided tour to educate the public on the dangers the the human population brings to the turtles. Cost $25 adults, $12 children. Facility is handicapped accessible which was perfect for our group. And for $35 you can adopt a turtle and receive 3 letters a year from your turtle.

    This was one of my favorite spots on my recent trip to Florida. This is a real working hospital dedicated to rescuing and rehabbing sea turtles. Tours are available every day. It is an awesome opportunity to see the great work they do and get to meet some of the patients. It is a great place to support. The work they do is beyond important. Note: The hospital suggests calling ahead to make sure tours are still on. They are sometimes cancelled if there is a turtle emergency. We also had a really full tour, so you may want to call ahead just to make sure you get a spot.

    I called this place beforehand to make sure it was appropriate for my 3.5 year old.The lady said that there was a power point presentation that was about 20 minutes long, and if he couldn't last through that, we could take him out or there was a table with crayons in the back. He actually made it through! The girl who led our tour had been there only a week, but she did a great job. We learned all about sea turtles, and how humans are really fracking up their world! :( We were able to peek into the ER and see an injured turtle that had just come in. We saw a bunch of different turtles in little swimming pools that were being treated for various ailments. Then at the end, she gives everyone catfish food (?) and you get to feed the turtles! My son really enjoyed this, and my husband and I learned a lot as well.

    But it is also a convenient location as Marathon is right in the middle of the Keys.

    I brought my Sophie girl to Marathon Veterinary Hospital. Dr Del Pino was great with my girl and…read moregave her all her shots with great care. Nate, the Technician was very helpful and kind with Sophie. Shannon at reception was very helpful and provided us with great detailed information throughout. Overall, I highly recommend this location and will be back for her follow up. Thank you!

    This was once the best, most highly recommended vet in the Keys. Those days ended when it was sold…read moreto a corporation. After our dog's yearly exam, which went very well and was expensive but not outrageous, the vet recommended a dental cleaning. A few days later we received a sample invoice for the cleaning which was incredibly expensive. I replied that we could not afford the cleaning this year. Our dog is young, has no substantial dental issues and the quote was well over a thousand dollars. Within 24 hours, I received a phone call from one of the vets (who was not blatantly rude but wasn't very polite either) informing me that our dog's urine sample had blood and protein in it and it was important that we bring him in for X-rays. I was told there was no evidence of infection (which could be treated with relatively inexpensive antibiotics) but it was most likely "crystals, like kidney stones, or it could possibly be a tumor." Our last dog passed from cancer while in their care. The suggestion hit hard like she knew it would. Despite being scared for my dog's health, I could not get past the feeling that this was a cash grab. I felt that the moment I said "no" to the dental cleaning, they switched to high pressure sales tactics like a desperate salesman trying to hit his sales goal for the month. I had my dog's records sent to a new vet and made an appointment for one week after his yearly visit at Marathon. I collected his first morning urine, brought it to the new vet who was able to test it right in their building rather than send it out to a lab and THANK GOD- it was fine. While I am not accusing Marathon of faking a lab report, I am thankful I trusted my instincts and went to another vet. Maybe there was a mistake with the lab. There was never the suggestion of a second urine test--it was straight to 400 plus dollars worth of X-rays and the strategic mention of a possible tumor that will keep me from ever going back to this establishment. We love our pets. We will sacrifice a lot to keep them healthy. If this place is manipulating that love to fleece their customers, they should be very ashamed.
