Birch Island Veterinary Center

BEST VET EVER!! Dr. Dee saved my dogs life. She is smart and very well educated. She and her staff are the only ones I trust because I know they have our fur babies best interest at heart. We take them for the spa/play deal and they do a great job! These other one star reviews cannot be trusted. They are lies and should be removed. Most likely they have never even been to the establishment.

We’ve been going to Birch Island for vet AND Boarding needs since moving here three years ago. Our 4-year-old large dog and our kitten (now cat) have been in the best care! From the doctors to the vet techs, you can tell everyone who works there does so because they truly live animals. They always get us in quickly if an issue arises. We think our dog thinks we take him there for his own vacation, not ours, as he doesn’t look back when he eagerly goes into see what new friends he’ll meet. Very easy to work with, extremely knowledgeable, and there are no surprises with the bill. All around satisfied with Birch Island!

Birch Island is the FOURTH veterinarian that we've been to in the four years that we've lived here. After our previous vet wouldn't see our dog for an acute ear infection, we called Birch Island at the recommendation of a neighbor. We made the 30+ minute drive up from St Augustine the next morning and we were amazed at the level of care and professionalism that we encountered. The front desk staff greeted us with a smile, were friendly and quick to put us in a room. The vet tech, Leslie, was gentle and caring with our dog. Dr. Gavron was fantastic - professional, warm, friendly, informative, and funny! We left feeling completely at ease with the care that our dog received, AND their fees are completely reasonable. Also, their 'office dog', Kash, is the best. If you're looking for a vet, I cannot recommend Birch Island Vet Center enough.

We adore the Birch team. They know our furbaby well and care for him like he’s their own pet. When issues arise, they talk through our options with transparent pricing and guide us through what we don’t understand. Dr Dee expects the best from her team and holds them accountable. She personally oversaw the design and build of the facility and you can tell how much she truly cares about her patients and their human parents with every detail she put into the creation of Birch.

My pets have been attending Birch Island since the day they opened. They receive the best medical care I could ever hope for them. The doctors and technicians go amazingly beyond what we ever received at other clinics in other cities where we have lived. Our dog attends day care at Birch Island several days per week. The boarding and kennel staff are first rate. They know my dog instantly when we walk in. The pets are safe and loved. The staff is knowledgeable and is able to recommend suggestions as they spend so much time with the animals. The facility is modern and clean. The personnel are honest and transparent regarding my dog's health care. At no time have I ever felt like I was trying to be sold anything. They just want what is best for my fluffy family member. Birch Island Veterinary Center is the best hospital and boarding/daycare facility in Jacksonville.
