It's a shame I have to write this because I've brought multiple dogs to see Dr. McCall over the…read morepast 5 years and referred a number of my neighbors as well. I never had any complaint about Dr. McCall. Dr. Johnson on the other hand - STAY AWAY!!!!! NEVER bring your dog there for their dental cleaning!!! All I'm gonna say is I brought my darling Izzy in for dental in Sept 2025. She came home in terrible condition! She couldn't eat, she could barely stand or walk and they had no hours when I could bring her back in because I work 8-4:30 and so do they. When I kept calling there and expressing my being upset, they tried to turn it on me that it's MY fault because I didn't bring her back after her surgery. How could I when I work???? I kept bringing her to the emergency animal hospital on 40. Their after care is pathetic. It cost me $1800 to basically kill my little girl. She ended up passing away in my arms the following week - After multiple visits to the emergency Vet. NEVER let Dr. Johnson do dental on your dog! Go to Marion County Humane Society clinic. They are 1/3 the cost, they do the bloodwork the morning of surgery so there is NO QUESTION that your dog can be safely put under anesthesia. The Vet there as well as the team were outstanding. My new rescue came home after surgery and the first thing he wanted to do was eat! What a difference. Save your heart from breaking and avoid this place. Again, my condolences to Dr. McCall because I really liked her, but she was also a disappointment in the end because she never reached out to me during this fiasco.

MY DOG DIED On Wednesday, July 16, 2026, at approximately…read more11:00 a.m., I took my 2-year-and-9-month-old French Bulldog to CareVet at Skylark because he appeared to have pain in one of his back legs. We explained everything that had happened and provided the veterinary team with all the details about his condition. When we arrived, my dog was able to walk normally, including from the parking lot into the clinic. After examining him, the veterinary team gave him an injection for pain relief. They then told us they wanted to sedate him because he was difficult to keep still during a spinal examination and X-rays. We also informed them that our dog had consumed a large amount of water before the examination. We were instructed to return around 4:00 p.m. to pick him up. When we returned, our dog's condition had changed dramatically. He was completely paralyzed, and his eyes were severely swollen and bright red. I immediately asked the veterinary assistant why he looked like that. I was told that he had become stressed during the sedation and X-ray process. The following morning, at approximately 9:00 a.m., we returned to the clinic and asked to speak with Dr. Southwell. He also questioned why our dog's eyes were so red, even though I had already raised that concern. He administered fluids and a Diazepam injection before sending us home. Around 11:00 p.m. that same night, our dog's condition continued to worsen, so we rushed him to the University of Florida Emergency Veterinary Hospital. The emergency veterinarian examined him and expressed serious concern about his neurological condition. What I cannot understand is why CareVet at Skylark never informed us that something serious may have occurred during the sedation or recovery process, or that his condition required immediate emergency neurological evaluation. Instead, we only learned how critical his condition was after taking him to another veterinary hospital. Those first hours were incredibly important, and I will always wonder whether earlier recognition, communication, and referral could have made a difference. My dog walked into the clinic that morning. He left the same day completely paralyzed and fighting for his life. Despite every effort by the emergency team to save him, he passed away in the early morning of July 18, 2026. My French Bulldog was only 2 years and 9 months old. He had never been seriously ill and was always a happy, loving, and playful dog. He brought so much joy to our lives, and we are heartbroken by his loss. This was one of the most painful experiences my family has ever endured. Based on what we experienced, I cannot recommend this clinic. I hope no other family has to go through what we did. Rest in peace, my little angel. You will always be loved, forever missed, and never forgotten.

Nine months ago, we were told to take our dog, Walker, home and enjoy our last week with him…read more It all started with diarrhea, soft stools, and gradual weight loss. At first, our local veterinarian thought he had low protein. Then he was treated with antibiotics. By the time Walker was finally diagnosed with pythiosis in his GI tract, we were told his case was terminal and that there was nothing more that could be done. We were absolutely devastated. Then our neighbor did some research and came across the incredible work of Dr. Justin Walton at the University of Florida College of Veterinary Medicine. That research changed everything. Dr. Walton and the entire UF Veterinary team gave us something we thought we had lost--hope. Their expertise, compassion, and willingness to fight for Walker saved his life. Today, nine months later, Walker is pythium-free, off all of his medications, healthy, happy, and back to being himself. What once felt impossible has become our reality. There are no words to express how grateful we are to Dr. Walton and every member of the UF team. Thank you for dedicating your lives to advancing veterinary medicine, for never giving up on dogs like Walker, and for giving our family so much more time with our best friend. If your pet has been diagnosed with pythiosis, don't lose hope. Seek a second opinion and learn about the work being done at UF. Walker is living proof that there can be hope, even when the prognosis seems impossible. From the bottom of our hearts, thank you, Dr. Walton and the entire UF Veterinary team. You gave Walker--and our family--a second chance.
