The very rude front desk person with the dark hair very snottily said, like other Dr.'s office we run behind, amongst other rude things! I told her she was very rude and she did not have to answer us like that. She's mad because we questioned her! Don't over schedule and then be mad when we complain about wait times! Then another person came in to check in for another 4:30 appt. That's the time I'm scheduled!?! I said why would you schedule two appts at the same time if you're always running behind? She acts like it's ok to keep people waiting and was so dismissive! It's not! Ooh she was mad! Told me I could reschedule amongst other rude things! Crappy customer service! Her whole demeanor was hostile! Then she called me outside. Told me I need to settle down or leave as per Dr. Whatever his name is! Really!? She said everyone heard me complain and I need to settled down! So they heard me!?!? Who are you talking to telling me to settle down? I'm not her subordinate! She's mad, embarrassed everyone heard me question her! I wouldn't bow to her so we left! She said she's not here to abused! Neither am I! Keeping people waiting and then being indignant when they question you is weak! Who abused you buttercup!?! No one! Power trip much!?! My dog has a UTI and we were sent away untreated as I questioned a bully. A snotty bully who should not be working with the public! As for Dr. Whatever his name is, you should send her to some kind of trainng. Funny thing is, I'm not the only one who question her. She singled me out as I would not let her rein supreme over me. I wouldn't take my dead dog here! In the meantime my poor dog is left untreated. They are awful and should be ashamed!

I arrived with no appointment before they even unlocked their doors with my very sick 1 year old Maine coon. the door was opened with no hesitation I was ushered in and made to be so comfortable while we waited for the doc to arrive. they were honest but caring and helped me make the right choices for my little guy who was riddled with an aggressive juvenile cancer. we decided that crossing the rainbow bridge was the best thing to do for Raffi as his liver was failing as well. their caring and true love for animals and their parents in this office is just one of the reasons why it is where all my babies go for their care. if you are in need of a doc for your fur baby - I highly recommend the Lake Forest Veterinary in Avon Park!

I paid $86.00 for the castration of my 1.5 year old kitten. After the castration, my kitten refused…read moreany kind of food or water for 11 days. After 11 days, I went to the clinic where the kitten was taken by someone and I was left in the waiting room. After about 1-2 hours, a man who did not introduce himself told me by phone that he would consult the kitten after I paid a certain amount of money. I told the man that the fault for the kitten's behavior was those who performed the castration, which led to the kitten's refusal to eat, and therefore it was their obligation to consult him and prescribe what was necessary. They refused to take responsibility, so for the sake of the kitten, I paid the cashier $135.00 after which someone brought the kitten to my waiting room. I should mention that the doctor did not invite me into his office to have a live discussion and in fact I do not know what kind of consultation or treatment they have established for the kitten. The fact is that when I returned home the kitten did not show any signs of improvement, which leads me to the conclusion that this kitten was only used to take $221.00 from my money. I do not recommend this so-called Humane Society to anyone. Send feedback
