I have, unfortunately, been to numerous vets throughout Manatee and Sarasota county with many disappointments and broken bank accounts. If you are the type of pet owner that believes your pet requires a higher standard of living than you or your children then this vet is not for you. However, if you are looking for a vet that honestly cares about keeping your pet healthy without having to put your family into financial despair then this is your place. The only difference between this vet and the high priced competition is the cost of their facilities and the higher salaries paid to the employees which translates into higher prices and ""up sales"" in services. I will admit that I was initially turned off by the location and condition of this facility but I have found that over the last 5 years that I have been going here they are very knowledgeable, capable, and caring. \r
Common sense runs rampant here and the Drs are obviously in this for the love of it, not the money. If Norman Rockwell's town had a vet it would be just like this place.
