I cannot recommend the services provided by SWFL Vet Specialists more. Our puppy suffered a Y fracture to her humerus and not only were they able to get her in right away and get her taken care of, but they've also been EXTREMELY helpful throughout the entire process. To name a few- Kiara and Taylor have both been incredible to us, among many other staff members. We are so glad we chose this vet for our girl's surgery, despite it being quite a drive from home.
I brought my pup in for some emergency services for a wound and they just treated me as if I had abused my puppy. I would never. They did surgery and it looked terrible upon getting her back. I brought her to another vet and she had another procedure done. Her skin looked way better than when these guys handled it.
What irritated me the most was the vet dropped that she gets paid by the hour. Very unprofessional. I will not be bringing another one of my children here again.

If I could give a 0 star I would…. I took my 2year old yorkie due to problems breathing. They said they had to leave my dog hospitalized and they would check her heart. The next day when I went to see my dog they would not allow me to see her and said she did not have any heart issues and that likely she had cancer. Therefor they wanted to keep her another two nights. When I told them I can’t keep paying 5000$ later they said I would have to put her down due to her being too sick. I took my dog with me to another vet and they gave her antibiotics and said she had phenonia. They were shocked at the vet when I showed them everything they did to my dog. If you don’t want to waist your hard earned money don’t go to this vet they don’t care about your animals they care about getting money.

Our experience with Southwest Florida Veterinary Specialists was during one of the hardest days of our lives.
When our beloved boxer, Hank, suffered a sudden cardiac event, the team responded with urgency, professionalism, and genuine compassion. Despite every effort to save him, we ultimately lost Hank, but we will always be grateful for the care he received and the kindness shown to us during such a devastating time.
The doctors and staff treated Hank with dignity and treated us with empathy when we needed it most. They took the time to explain what was happening, answered our questions, and supported us through an unimaginable situation.
No pet owner ever wants to find themselves in those circumstances, but if you do, you want a team that cares as much as they do. We are deeply thankful for the efforts they made for Hank and for the compassion they showed our family.

Appreciate the time and care they’ve given our Yorkie Daniel. It was our first visit and probably won’t be the last. Had an early Saturday appointment and was surprised to see all the staff in a very cheerful mood. The tech was friendly and wonderful. The doctor, don’t have her name at the moment, was very thorough and made sure Daniel will be fine. Thank you!
