Sharon B. replied:
Dr. Landiss in Nokomis is the best!
Kitti R. replied:
Bright cross but only Dr Cliff Myburg or his wife. Staff is great there as well.
Laurie W. replied:
I agree about Ark Animal Hospital. Dr. Maus is fantastic. My 6 year old lab mix has been their patient since I adopted him at 12 weeks. At 4 years he had emergency gastric surgery- Dr. Maus went back into the clinic at night and checked on him herself- then called me to give me updates and piece of mind. My dog also suffers from skin allergies- she has worked with me trying to control it so I can keep him OUT of her office- as it gets so expensive.
Debra S. replied:
Definitely A Pets Friend Animal Hospital on Shamrock I had 3 labs 2 now They have been wonderful to me & removed a cyst with great success! Dr. B is very compassionate. And very reasonable prices
Ron Z. replied:
Dr Don's
Terri S. replied:
Dr Jack landless at nokomis!!! He's amazing
Cynthia H. replied:
I do rescue work and have pretty extensive knowledge of local vets. Dr. Jack / Nokomis Vet Clinic. would be my first pick. One vet in our area for 40 yrs. is NOT reputable, one would charge you a fortune, etc. Also Sarasota Animal Hospital is very good. Understand that some vets will prey upon the your emotional connection to recommend things that are incredibly expensive and not necessary. Be careful of that, it happens all the time.
Lisa S. replied:
I will try to make my long story, short. My pets have seen Dr. G at Loving Care off 776 for about 18 years. Love Love her. She's wonderful and does this line of work because she truly cares about the pets. Two years ago my dog (10 years old) was very sick and Dr. G realized her limits and sent us to a specialist in Sarasota. I thought "Specialist, Sarasota=$$$$" we'll, she saved his life. He has a rare disease that she was able to diagnose and treat. She was very kind and it didn't cost me a fortune. Her name is Dr. Heidi Ward in south Sarasota. We still continue to see Dr. G for regular check ups but for something out of the ordinary I would highly recommend Dr. Ward. Best of luck to you
Kathleen C. replied:
I too use Dr Myburg at bright cross very good
Andrea L. replied:

Paul V. replied:
Dr. Cliff Myburgh at Bright Cross Animal Clinic, 4165 Tamiami Trl S, Venice · (941) 408-9696. The BEST!
Ingrid B. replied:
Both Dr. "G" & Dr. "Yolanda" as well as the staff at Loving Care on St Rd 776 are wonderful! They also make house calls and have made diagnosis that others have missed. I also hear that Dr. Maus at Ark Animal is most excellent. There are many great vets in the area.
Sharon W. replied:
Bright Cross animal clinic! They were rated the best Vet clinic for 5 years in a row! I highly recommend them, I have been going to them for a while now! all 3 Vets are wonderful, both Myberg's and Dr Chad Wright.
Carole B. replied:
Venice Pines - Dr. Molly Caldwell.
Bayside F. replied:
A Pet's friend. Ditto Claudell. Always very friendly. I mostly see Dr B. but Dr Walsh has jumped in when needed and has treated us with the same compassion. Love them. Always caring, kind and there for you, from the yearly thur the toughest times.
Susan W. replied:
I use and recommend Dr Garner---he's been my vet for many many years and as another poster said above he has been in our community for over 40 years
Diana A. replied:
We don't live in the area anymore but when we did Dr. Garner was the one we used. He cared for 14 of our cats and 5 of our dogs over 30+ years. He met us one time around 10:00 at night on a Saturday to care for a sick puppy of ours. His staff has changed over the years but they are always very caring. When we had to put down our last dog he was very caring and even did an autopsy (no charge to us) on our dog because he was concerned about his death. Dr. Garner discovered cancer so we reassured that we made the best decision. Dr. Garner would get my vote hands down.
Bambi C. replied:
Dr. Landess941-484-2485, he was very reasonable and he is a caring vet..my dog had to be put to sleep due to a horrible accident at the emergency vet in sarasota..he personally called my to talk with me..that evening he is a good caring vet, unlike I have ever seen in my entire life...just love the man!

Marla B. replied:
Ark Animal Hospital on 41 near Franks. Dr. Greenwald and his staff have gone above and beyond to care for my beloved rotty and my current dog. My dog, 100 lb mixed, has had 2 different surgeries for the removal of mass cell tumors. She had 1 removed in 2012 and the following year, she had 1 surgery but 3 growths were removed. This year's check-up looks great! 2014 appears to be a year that there will be no surgeries! Dr. Greenwald has chosen Dr. Moss and she is as amazing as he is. She assisted with both surgeries and I trust her with my dog as much as Dr. Greenwald. 493-3300

Lisa S. replied:
I have heard great things about Bright Cross,but A Pet's Friend is where we go-and they are AWESOME!! Either Dr. Walsh or Dr B, they are both great!
Geri N. replied:
My experience with one vet down here: they kept my dog since I brought her in at 8 am, till 2:30 pm to tell me they had to put her down. I responded saying wait I am 5 mins away, I must be with her and say goodbye. She was put down before I got there. Excuse: we were concerned with the animal. Then why did you keep her all those hours and not let me say good bye. Oh man, and this was a money machine place. I have examples that should have warned me to leave, and I will always be sorry I didn't respond to a gut feeling. Good luck with your dog. I now go to Veterinarian Associates on Jacaranda, where the doctors care about the animals more than making money. There are many good vets in Venice, just be careful.

Dr Kate Brown, Brandt Vet Brandt Veterinary Clinic.. I've been going there for 27 years
Cheryl D. replied:
Dr. Kate Brown at Brandt Veterinary Clinic in Nokomis found that my 10 yr. old dog had anal cancer. She successfully remove it. We were just three weeks from returning to Michigan and she suggested I follow up with a cancer specialist. I did and the cancer had spread to his lymph nodes. A second surgery in Michigan was not as successful and the cancerous nodes returned. He is still his spoiled self by receiving chemo once a month. But he wouldn't be here without Dr. Kate's original diagnoses and surgery.
Kim M. replied:
Dr Jack Landess in Nokomis is our vet. He discovered a fast growing tumor in our ten year old Corgi and made special arrangements to remove it within 24 hours. Reasonable, wholistic, and very thorough. Our Corgi remains happy and healthy! Best part..... no extra, unexpected costs. I tried anothe vet for a second opinion and they charged me $18 new patient file set up fee in addition to MANY extras they tried to push. Phone 484-2485

Jes B. replied:
A Pets Friend has been our family vet since I was born... My bulldog, kitty, sees Dr B and it has been amazing. After a broken leg, a life threatening illness, now blood auger problems and everything else... I still have money to pay the bills! Lol, they care and don't break the bank! And even after kitty knocked Dr Walsh over and supposedly hurt his back (per my grandma), he still treated her with love

Janice T. replied:
Lemon Bay Animal Hospital. Any of the vets there are ok by me! How many animal hospitals would take the time to send a sympathy card when with love and understanding they had to put a beloved pet to sleep. Not one person there ever made me feel silly when I cried on a phone call. I now have a rescue Chocolate Lab who through their kindness and patience, never fuss at him. He hates to go.

Also love Dr. Ebert at South trail. He won't over test and over charge for unnecessary services, like testing for heat worm every 6 months when you have never missed a heart worm pill in 12 years.
