Veterinarians near Shalimar, FL

“I was anxious about taking my cat because she hadn’t been to a Vet for a long time and the Techs were fantastic at keeping her calm and the prices were reasonable!”

“The only thing I was not happy with was the cost of the heartworm medicine I think it is ridiculous. As far as Bayside Animal Hospital I think they’re great. The staff and the vets are nice and friendly and take good care of my dog so it’s a nice place to go.”

“Recent Dental Cleaning for my 6 year old cat went great! Welcoming and friendly support staff and the techs and doctors are always top notch! My estimate was higher than my final bill and that doesn't happen often! They give you a very thorough report with photos and they seem to truly care! If you've got a cat needing this work done, you can trust them to do what is needed but not to overcharge. My family has used Friendship for over 40 years and I'm pleased with their work.”

“I had a great experience bringing my senior dog, Garlic, in for his wellness exam. The entire staff was friendly, professional, and very caring. They took their time with Garlic, made sure he was comfortable throughout the exam, and thoroughly addressed my questions and concerns.

As our pets get older, you definitely want to feel confident that they’re receiving the attention and care they need, and I felt that Garlic was in great hands. I really appreciated the patience, compassion, and attention to detail shown during his visit. Thank you for taking such good care of Garlic!”

“Our dog Coco had a limb amputation with Dr.White and his amazing staff and it was the best experience we have had at the vet thus far. They truly care about the animals and families they serve and took amazing care of our chihuahua. From referral to post opperative check ups they really went above and beyond to make her and us feel loved and welcome. The attention to every little detail from making sure she was comfortable during her stay and even going as far as trimming her nails while she was asleep without request. I could go on and on with how amazing this experience has been with this staff, the vet techs are amazing and deserve a post of their own. Thank you Dr. White and your amazing staff. This was such a scary time in our lives and you made us feel safe and cared for. I would like to add that the prices here are the absolute best around.”

“We had such a wonderful experience with Niceville Animal Clinic. The staff was so kind, caring, and friendly from the moment we walked in.

We recently had to make the heartbreaking decision to put our Boxer down, and they were absolutely amazing with us during such a difficult time. They treated our baby with so much love, dignity, and compassion, and they gave us the time and support we needed to make a decision that was incredibly hard for our family. Their kindness meant more to us than they probably realize.

We also brought our Frenchie in to have her nails done, and they did a great job with them! They were patient, gentle, and made the whole experience so much easier.

You can tell the staff at Niceville Animal Clinic truly cares about the animals and the families who love them. We are so thankful for the compassion they showed our family and would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for a caring and friendly veterinary clinic. ❤🐾”

“Dr Malinowski and the staff at Destin Animal Clinic was truly amazing. Dr Malinowski was so passionate, caring and knowledgeable about dealing with our Gibson. I feel so at ease knowing she and her staff are with us all the way.”

“Such a caring office! Terrific service, responsive to questions, reasonable costs, convenient hours. I recently needed a quick check on some minor issue/questions for my pet and they were able to get me in quickly and provide great advice. And if they can't meet your pet's needs in an emergency, they always have an option for you.”

“Enzo has been seeing Dr. Nesius at Village Vet for his routine care and vaccinations, as well as a few issues that have come up including skin problems and an anal gland abscess. We’ve always had a great experience and have generally been able to get him an appointment when needed. Dr. Nesius and the staff are very helpful, responsive, and great about addressing our concerns. They’ve also gone above and beyond outside of appointments, including helping with a letter we needed and working with us to correct an issue with a pet insurance claim. We’ve been very happy with the care Enzo receives and would definitely recommend them.”

“AMAZING STAFF!! We recently moved to the area and found them via Google. NOT AT ALL DISAPPOINTED. I was so concerned over an awful rash/allergy my dog had, they fit us in within days. Extremely supportive, compassionate and kind staff. Even the fees are extremely reasonable. So thankful for the wonderful staff, and the kindness they showed me and Dexter! We have found our vet office!!!”

“Our family just moved to the area and needed to get some updated shots. The folks here from the receptionist to the vet were super nice and knowledgeable. We did get a little sticker shock at the time to check out, the only thing I would change is share the price of things as your discussing the different options. We are used to the Midwest where country vets are plentiful and prices for the services are discussed prior, but the service was great!”

“Love this vet. I’ve had horrible experiences with veterinary clinics. They always want to bundle all kinds of unnecessary tests but Crossroads have been upfront about everything and I trust if they recommend a treatment my dogs actually need it. I would highly recommend”

“I take my two cats and dog here. They are very thoughtful and concerned for animals
Especially my skiddish dog (he always gets his medicine before he goes) and recently my sick cat. There upfront about estimates, balancing cost and needs. All the doctors and techs are friendly. The front office staff are great. The office cat is handsome and nice.”

“We just moved here and had a recommendation from a vet friend back home for this place. Everyone was super sweet to my girl, and she got a lot of pets and loves, which made her very at ease, enough for her to splat the floor while waiting!? Dr Hardin was great and sat and talked to me about her medical history and what all she was in for today. I felt very at ease with the staff and doctor. We live in ValP but this clinic is worth the drive into Destin!”

“I started going to Niceville Animal Clinic in 2020 during the COVID lockdown because they were the only vet clinic I could find that would take new patients. I had just moved here a few months earlier and needed a vet. Every visit has been a pleasure with Dr Jenny and her staff. Yea a couple times I've waited a little longer than some people might find acceptable, but they are busy and always do their best to provide the fastest service possible. Plus they are taking care of animals that many people see as family members, and if they take an extra few minutes to treat and animal it's better then rushing through and making a mistake. My last visit they got me in a room ahead of my appointment time! Even though I live 45 minutes away I'll still continue to goto Niceville animal clinic as long as I live here.”

“Dr. Blumer came to my home in Gulf Breeze to assist with our Labrador's transition. He helped us with a very difficult and emotional decision. Rambo crossed the Rainbow Bridge with his loved ones holding him and speaking life - as it should be. As tough as it was, Dr. Phil made it better. I wish pet owners would muster the courage to be present for their loved one and not wait in the waiting room while they are put to sleep searching for their human!”

“Wonderful people. When we moved here from Memphis we needed a vet for our aging rescue, Mr. Buddy. He had multiple benign tumors, one of which was interfering with his ability to walk. The folks at Bayside took him in and performed the surgery. He is now fully recovered and enjoying his walks again. We are sold on Bayside and recommend them wholeheartedly for your pets' vet needs.”

“Our 7-year-old dog was BLIND due to complications from his diabetes. Dr. Storey successfully performed the cataract surgery, and now our little dog is back playing and chasing his ball. He can see us in the eyes and no longer needs to hold food up to his nose to know it's there and be able to eat. The surgery was 7 days ago, and we now have the same happy, dynamic dog we had years ago. Dr. Storey is an extraordinary professional. My family will always be grateful for bringing joy back to our dog, Buddy.”

“So thankful to have a clinic close to home for these unexpected emergencies! Thankfully, this is the first time I’ve had to use the Destin office but the experience was wonderful. The staff was very friendly and Dr. Fortner was successful in his procedure on my sweet Molly!”

“I just want to take a moment and leave a positive review for the Niceville Emergency Clinic. Everyone was so nice, accommodating and compassionate with Jake. I am a nurse. I know firsthand the strain that 12 hour shifts and unexpected emergencies can place on families and staff alike. These individuals treated us like friends and treated Jake with compassionate, attentive care throughout his entire experience. I would like to give a personal shout out to Jenny (technician) and Dr.s Fortner and Thompson. These three made our emergent experience tolerable and lessened this fur-momma anxiety every step of the way. Jenny was thoughtful, attentive and went out of her way to make every interaction personable and took the time to ensure my Jake was cared for at a level above what I have seen in a long time. She went as far as chasing us into the parking lot upon discharge to wish us luck and tell Jake goodbye (just coming on her shift). Dr Fortner was amazing and actually sat down in the room to ensure all my concerns were addressed and listened to my ideas and input on the plan of care. He called me and explained every step and updated me on improvements or declines. Dr. Thompson is one of the best Veterinarians i have ever dealt with. He took the time to call me and stay involved in Jake's care over the course of 3 days. He even followed Jake's case and called me to discuss his care, plan amd status when I brought him back. Even though he was at another facility! He took the time to review everything with my baby and stay involved in his care to ensure the absolute best for him and me. I know everyone has a bad experience sometimes but these individuals truely do care about the pets (loved ones) brought to them and they all go above and beyond to try their best and return your pet in the best health possible. Th3re were so many more to name: Rachel, Tori, Allison and Charity. Thank you to everyone (including those not named) involved in Jake's care. You are all fur angels in my book.
You put this fur-momma's worries and doubts to rest. From the bottom of my heart, Jake and I were blessed to have each of you care for us.”

“Stumbled upon this jewel through an organization APL, when inquiring about neutering for my Yorkie. They were so welcoming, so professional & took care of my little guy like he was their own! I highly recommend Emerald Coast Animal Hospital for all your vet needs!”
