I purchased a puppy at an establishment called "Paws and Bones" on Bird Road in Miami. I was given a health certificate for this little puppy with a name of a DVM and a stamp "Westwood Veterinary Clinic". The Certificate stated that the puppy was parasite free and in good health and this certification was good for 30 days. I bought the puppy within 30 days of the certification. Immediately after bringing the puppy home, I noticed that the puppy was having breathing difficulties. To make a long story short, this puppy has spent the last 6 days in another Animal Hospital with an IV in her neck keeping her alive. She has 2 different kinds of parasites in her and a severe upper respiratory infection. She cannot eat and is skeletal. With proper care she may pull through. When I called Westwood Veterinary Clinic, the "office manager" told me that the owner (a DVM) was having her lunch and could not come to the phone, and the so called veterinarian who had signed the certification only worked there once a week and she was not there. I left my name and telephone number and requested a call back. I am still waiting. I have checked with Tallahassee to see if the "DVM" that signed the Health Certificate is truly licensed, but nothing came up under the name listed. I will follow through with a call to the licensing board in the State of Florida on the off chance that she has changed her name (is using a married name, etc.). Very disturbing and very sad.

My cat got very sick, she had been losing her hearing but all of a sudden she lost her eye sight as well. I took her there, Alex and the entire staff were excellent with her and with a very upset me. It was expensive as they had to run all the tests to find out what is wrong with her. Unfortunately, she has an auto immune disease but with medication we are controlling it. The only thing negative I can say is that they are sooo busy that sometimes you have to wait a bit, but even that is okay as it the only vet my cat will let me take.

They dont care about you, they want your money and will do everything possible to get more and more, I was overcharged once and to my disgrace, they were responsible for the death of my Dog, I never got a call from the doctor. If you love your animal, don't ever think of going there

Excellent place, excellent service. All vet's are costly buy. But they manage to give reasonable pricing and fast service. I have had, seven animals operated there. Hey great price great service. :) It's your choice where you take your pets.

This used to be my regular vet clinic - it was pricey but I liked the people and my dogs didn't mind it as much as other clinics. When I found a homeless dog I brought him there to be checked out before I looked for a home for him. They told me he had heartworms and it would be $700 to treat. They said it was usually $1100 but they were giving me a good deal since he was homeless. I called another vet who I had never seen before but who had a good reputation from rescue groups in the area. He said heartworm treatment was usually close to $500 but he would do it for $300 since this was a homeless dog. I can't believe Westwood tried to rip me off in helping a homeless dog! If they would do this, I think they are capable of anything.
