Veterinarians in The Villages, FL

“We had an elderly pet, and Paws guided us along the path, leading us to doing the ultimate loving act, preventing her suffering. Their respect for her end of life and our pain was compassionate and professional. Thank you.”

“I first brought Besbee, my GSD to Buffalo Ridge on a Friday when I arrived home from work to find her barely able to stand and slow to respond. I called my regular vet and they could not fit her in even as an emergency, I called several other local vets who gave similar responses. Finally I called a friend who recommended his vet which happened to be less than a ten minute drive away, it was Buffalo Ridge. They took us right away. It took several tests and more symptoms to appear before they were able to narrow it down and treat her, but they took good care of her in the meantime. I feared I would lose her that weekend but thanks to Buffalo Ridge we were able to determine that somewhere during her walks she had picked up and ate rat poison. She would have died if not for their care. Doctor Madiera was with her all weekend and thru the night, I could call anytime day or night and would get a quick update on her condition. The staff was all very kind and considerate whenever I called and I called alot!Besbee is home and 100% now and I have switched to Buffalo Ridge and Dr. Madeira as my regular vet. It is nice to know that no matter what time of day or night there will be someone there if I should need them. Their emergency care is the best and her regular visits have been nice too. They understand the needs and behaviors of an older GSD as well as a former marine and working dog. There are no complaints or problems when we need to wait outside or stay at the cat end of the reception room to avoid contact with other dogs. Besbee is a very special dog and deserves the best and I can feel confident that she is getting the best here.I wouldn't go anywhere else and highly recommend them.Update 5/31/2023The staff has had many changes these past few years and my last visit to them was not up to the standards I came to expect and I felt the Dr I dealt with really didn't care about my cat at all, and the office staff was more about the money then the welfare of my cat. Very disappointing and I will no longer be bringing my pets here. They stopped their emergency service and the office hours are much less then before.”

“Dr Drum and his staff are amazing. Very professional and compassionate. We have a Yorkie who has lots of medical issues, and they are always very responsive whenever we need help in managing his conditions.Thank you to all of you at Colony Plaza Veterinary Hospital.”

“Wonderful experience! Carla was fantastic on the floor helping us locate items. We took our dog to get groomed there and Tara was amazing. She was so kind, patient with our dog, and incredibly knowledgeable about her work. Highly recommend for dog grooming and ask for Tara. Great experience overall. (I posted this on google as well I was so happy)”
