We are SO happy Oatie has recovered so well! Great job Waterford Lakes crew! Especially Dr. Hamilton! 🥰🐾 Client testimonial below ⤵️

“My dog, Oatie, was unfortunately attacked by an off leash pit-bull about 3 weeks ago. In a panic, we rushed him to VEC at the Lake Underhill location and I am beyond grateful for the care and support we received through from staff. The took him back and treated him almost immediately and soothed any anxieties I had about my dog. They cleaned him up, x-rayed him, installed a drain and gave me all necessary meds. His stitches are now out and his wounds are just sweet little scars now, and he’s back to his normal self.

I’ve had this dog for 7 years and he is extremely important to me. We have done so many things together and this was the first time something like this had ever happened to him, so it was horribly terrifying and shocking and I’m so grateful for the amazing care he received through your vet.”

This is Nani pictured with her sweet family. Nani was treated at our Casselberry location for sepsis from a ruptured GI ulcer. Nani fought so hard to make sure she got to go home to her beloved family. Tammy, one of our longtime team members and a phenomenal technician, clocked a lot of hours ensuring that happened. 🐾🥰🫶🏼

We ran into Taz’s mom at a recent event, and she only had wonderful things to say. We love hearing stories like this. Client testimonial below ⬇️ we are so happy you’re doing so well, Taz! 😻🩺🫶🏼

“As a cat owner, you always think about emergency health situations and how you’d handle it, but if I’m being honest, nothing prepared me for what happened in May 2024 to my beloved cat Taz. He’s always been somewhat of a trouble maker, hence the name, but this time, his antics nearly cost him his life. After a day of constant vomiting, no desire to eat, and hiding under furniture, I knew something horrible was happening. I took him to Healthy Pets Urgent Care, where they informed me that there was likely an obstruction in his bowels, and that I had to take him in for emergency surgery right away. The staff recommended VEC in Casselberry, and I cannot be grateful enough for that recommendation. Upon taking him in, we waited for x-rays to be completed, where the doctor informed us that he had an obstruction in his bowels that was pressing on his pancreas, and that he needed surgery right away. My eyes full of tears, I left my baby at the clinic with no idea of what was to happen to him. I called nearly every hour, and the kind office staff and vet technicians provided me with comfort and updates every step of the way. The staff would tell me they were giving him love and affection, and that he was trying to be carried by every tech who opened his kennel door, and I knew that he was in the best hands. Not only did they save his life, they gave him attention and love so he wouldn’t feel so scared and alone. That extra step, beyond giving him life-saving surgery, is irreplaceable. The staff works tireless hours, saving lives, and they still take the time to make sure your baby feels loved in your absence. I was able to bring my Taz home the next day because of how rapidly he improved, and I give all the credit to the staff and doctors at VEC. They saved my cat’s life. To me, there’s never enough thanks I can give them for ensuring my sweet boy stayed with me.”
