Dadeland Animal Hospital

I have taken my dog Loki to the Hospital for years. They know him well through their charts and treat him as if one of their own. The entire staff is friendly and professional, and very reasonable with costs and fees. I unconditionally recommend their services.

This was my second time coming to Dadeland Animal Hospital. The first time that I went my kitten Ringo was attended by Tommy and Dr Craney. This time around it was Nela and Dr Suarez. They were very attentive and helpful especially this is the first time that I have ever had. They walk me through everything and know how to keep Ringo calm during his vaccinations. I have no regrets coming to this vet clinic.

Since my kids were babies, (they are now adults) we have been searching for a Veterinary clinic where Doctors and staff would be, caring, loving, kind, honest, genuine, knowledgeable, professional, conscientious, compassionate, patient, understanding, thorough, that would not make you feel that you were just a number and would take the time to explain and provide issues and options, but also be honest in reference to the options and the outcome, where the Doctor's would genuinely feel your pain or concern. FINALLY I have found it in DADELAND ANIMAL HOSPITAL, unfortunately under very sad circumstances. We brought in our beautiful Dachshund Mindy who had fallen ill, she was seen by Dr. Davila who was amazing, a wonderful Doctor/person, he walked outside to personally give me the sad diagnosis. He also spoke over the phone with both my son and daughter in law, my son who is in the Military stationed outside of Florida was devastated, Dr. Davila along with Tommy the Tech (who was also awesome), were so accommodating, they were willing ready and able to get on the phone with my son and explain the issue, and also comfort him. They took the time to make sure we chose what was best for our baby Mindy, they thoroughly explained the options and outcome and allowed us to choose by providing all details, we knew it wasn't good. My son wanted to say goodbye and be able to spend her last days with her but could not get a military leave so the only option was facetime, Tommy helped us set up face-time right in the car as he brought her back to us. That evening I was able to face-time with my son where he saw Mindy and spoke to her. With a heavy heart I have to say she passed the next afternoon. She was at home where she spent almost 14 years, she was in her bed, in her surroundings and even ate before she left us. She suffered heart failure and Dr. Avila immediately diagnosed her, had it not been for Dr. Davila and Tommy this horrific sad time would have been so much worse. They made the difference by preparing us and being so attentive, accommodating, kind and caring, I know Mindy felt genuine care when she was being seen by Dr. Davila. he also administered a shot to make her breathing more comfortable by eliminating fluid.They were extremely sweet and loving with her.. After she passed I called them and they were about to close yet Lory told me they would wait for me, upon arriving Tommy was there to meet me and provided comfort and kind words, when I drove away I felt peace knowing that I had left her in great loving hands. They are taking care of her private cremation, they will call me when she is ready to be picked up so we can once again bring her home where she will for ever remain with us.. They expressed how sorry they were for our loss and I know they genuinely meant it. Thanks to Dr. Davila, Tommy and Lory who made this painful experience a more peaceful one knowing that everything that could have been done was done and that I had her in excellent care. DADELAND ANIMAL HOSPITAL will be my other furry babies forever clinic. They are truly the best and one of a kind, I have been to at least 15 Vets throughout our life time and none would fill my whole list of requirements, Dadeland Animal Clinic and Dr. Davila DID! So refreshing to know and to feel peace in my heart knowing that I have found the ones! From my initial phone contact I felt that this was a place that really cares for animals and not for the money or profit they could gain on anyone's pain.That they were honest and aren't there to fill their pockets by ripping off customers as others do. The only regret I have is that I didn't find them from the first day I had my first furry baby. I am whole heartedly grateful and appreciate the care they gave Mindy! I am so relieved and at peace that I have finally found the Clinic that I will blindly trust to provide excellent care to all my fur babies!! I can't thank you enough, continue to be who you all are, THE BEST! R.I.P. in Furry heaven, our Beautiful Mindy, you and Keanu are together again!

Having been a happy customer of Dadeland Animal Hospital (Previously Derek Animal Hospital) since 2016, I had today the worst experience of my life with a vet. While doing the procedure to microchip, the vet hurt my pup and I had a brief natural reaction while he was crying in pain. Unexpectedly the vet went off on my partner shouting disrespectfully not to ever come again to his clinic and with no reason . We were blamed for not having vaccinated our pup for distemper when 4 weeks old. We didn’t want to argue that this was bad medical advice since the minimum age is 8 weeks and vaccines administered improperly can be deadly. We also noticed that the staff and the vets there are changing quickly over time which made us uncomfortable as well. We will be moving our records to a facility where we are treated professionally.

Today was my first visit to Dadeland Animal Hospital and I must say Dr Vasallo and Nela were excellent. They took their time to explain everything and they were very sweet with my dog, making everything easy for him. The front desk was also very nice. I didn't have to wait. I am very happy and will be coming back for sure!
