This vet was good before the renovations . I've been going here for years . My dog needed surgery ASAP for her ACL she is in a lot of pain and limping . They schedule me 3 weeks out them when I call to the night before to get post op instructions they have nothing in the books for me !! So no call back the following day I go in to see why I'm not even getting a call . The only woman that does the scheduling or has answers is not there I believe her name is Irene, not even the manager. So I told them while there I don't... read more

2 years and a half wasted at this facility.. Very unprofessional terrible customer service, no one will say hello at that place including doctors. It looks like you where at a free place waiting in line to have a service... If you have any kind of call, they will leave you at least 1 hour on the phone and then they will not come back with a call answering what you need ( it was not a medical question) . They take your pet for service without asking you if there are any questions or concerns charges are outrageous. My dog... read more

I trusted my Josie to them. Dr Cares removed a large tumor. I expected to see him after surgery but I was brought my dig and told to go to the front desk for payment. Asked to see him he complied. Two days later she was bleeding thru her bandage. Staff tech she was fine. Just put a t-shirt on her. Two more days drains removed. Still oozing thru shirt. No doctor. Another week called and said she was getting weak. Put her on prednisone. Called them 3 days later and said she couldn't make her appointment to have her switches r... read more

Horrible horrible horrible. This is the rudest most inconsiderate group of individuals ive ever come across in the animal field. It's so hard these days to find a good vet and this is a PRIME example of why. They are money hungry and can care less for your pet. My first cat I brought in a year or so ago they did tests on him and never called me with the results even after continually calling and attempting to follow up. I gave them another chance with a second cat a few days ago just for a simple hematoma in his ear. The do... read more

Pros: Bayview Animal Clinic is clean and smells less like a vet than many other clinics in South Florida, also their customer facing staff and veterinarian assistants are pleasant to work with. You'll get the impression they genuinely care about each pet brought to their facility. Cons: I'm sure our experience isn't applicable to all vet staff, but the two who saw our pet were fast talking and seemingly money motivated - possibly incentivized by a commission structure. They came off as apathetic and impersonal at best. ... read more

It has been several weeks now since my precious Violet died and I only now have found the courage to write how I feel about your clinic. I came highly recommended to your clinic by a friend of mind as I had been searching for a good veterinarian for quite some time. I brought my Violet in as she was not breathing well. I met with a Dr. Christopher D. Smith. He seemed quite confident and assured me he could get my Violet through what ever she was going through. I thought to myself that perhaps I finally found a good doctor fo... read more

I have used this center when Dr. Brunz was running it. Loved it and great honest care as needed. I have had a few questionable situations in the past and yesterday was my last. When you leave a message for a vet, good luck in getting a return call. This happened twice with them in a real time of need. I had a crisis yesterday with my cat and was promised a call back after 1 pm...still waiting. This is a similar situation I had previously with them, again in a crisis, no call. I have come to the conclusion that we ca... read more

First time clients, staff was very friendly. Issues that's we have are for the months of February and March our English Bulldog was given expired Heartgaurd medicine. We notified office staff on 3/14/2017. We asked to speak to the office manager and as of today's date we have not heard from them. We've sent countless emails to address the situation. Now the staff did replace her meds but the fact that no member of management has call us to even ask if our puppy is ok or to even apologize. We are not a rich family. Our... read more

What a horrible place. Disorganized, dirty, unfriendly staff. I made an appointment two days ago to take my cats in. Not only did they made me wait for an hour but then when it was time to see Blue to trim his nails, they made me go outside and wait to only come back and said he was not being friendly and would not do it. I asked them to let me in the room as if he saw me he would be ok, and the girl came back with some excuse of why she didn't want to trim my cat nails. They didn't have a problem before... All of the sudden... read more
