Fruitville Veterinary Clinic - Sarasota, Florida

Tara Stormoen

All staff are very kind and caring and understanding with my anxious pup. They are able to give estimates for services and medications. We were able to get appointments very quickly and didn't have to wait in the waiting room for long periods.

So caring and loving with me and my 18 year old cat ?‍⬛. They were honest and make me very comfortable with the decisions that were required. Dr. Pepper and his staff came very highly recommended by my sister who has used them for many many years and now I know why she loved them! They took great care of her dog and cat.

Dr Pepper has been our vet for 13 years. He is a great Vet and is honest and reasonable. I have never had things upsold to me.

Sam at the front desk is another wonderful reason to go. She is wonderful and has gotten us through some tough times.

They are a team I trust and that is about the best review possible!

My family have been taking our animals to Fruitville Veterinary for many, many years, so I knew when I got a pet(s) of my own, that this is where we would seek our care for them. Dr. Pepper and his team never disappoint. They are always friendly, welcoming and very helpful. We always receive speedy responses and you can tell they truly care for their patients needs. One of my dogs is constantly having skin irritations and never do I feel that I burden the staff or pest them with my any calls and appointments. The staff and doctors are all excellent and I would recommend this veterinarian to any and all friends/family!

Dr Pepper and crew are the best. We trust them with our family ferbaby's life's . What more can we say . We lost our family vet and had 10 Papillions 8 years ago it has taken 6 years and 6 other local veterinarians that we tried with less than unsatisfactory results, leading to a few near desastor for our beloved fer family and we had become concerned that we would not be able to provide them with the BEST medical services possible in their senior years. One of our 11 male papillon caught a very dangerous and aggressive flesh eating bacteria that was quickly overtaking him . Hell, Marry, desperate call to Dr Peppers and his staff of angels after trying 2 other vets all the time he just getting worse and this was quickly overtaking him . This was it all or nothing for him, starting to think about the hard choice that may have to be made.
( HAPPY ENDING ) DR PEPPER was able to identify what this was and with very limited treatment options med wise that would not hurt him but aggressive enough to kill the bacteria . Dr. Pepper called us to check on Brutus the next day on a Saturday. From that moment moving forward, i knew we had finally found our guy, and our babies are in good hands . One less thing to worry about. Brutus made a full recovery was a long road, but Dr Pepper got us home. P S Wanted to say thanks for seeing Tinkerbel and I Tuesday. She's feeling better and wants to say thanks, but no thanks , don't take that the wrong way it's a dog thang?

We're so glad we had Fruitville in our corner with adapting our cat to a new adoptee! Everyone has been so helpful, especially Sam in the front office. She is just wonderful - so warm and kind and helpful. Highly recommend this practice; they do a great job with the animals and don't try to sell people things that aren't needed, just what is going to actually be helpful. They were gentle and sweet with my senior cat and she can be quite moody! Thankful to everyone there!

I have trusted Dr. Pepper and his team with the care of my dogs for the past 20+ years, and have always had full confidence that they were receiving the best possible care. The Clinic is so clean and bright, the staff are always so courteous and knowledgeable, and Dr. Pepper does a thorough investigation and provides a complete explanation for any problem that the dog is facing. I am thankful that they are here for me.

I couldn't ask for a better vet and staff to take care of my pups. Dr. Pepper and the whole crew at Fruitville Vet are honest, compassionate, knowledgeable, and most of all, they understand that our pets are family.

Some things that make this place stand out above the rest:

1) Their app makes it super easy to request appointments and medication refills. It's also great to have my dog's records in my pocket all the time. I can't tell you how many times this has saved me at dog daycare and grooming appointments when I realized I forgot the vaccination record printout at home.

2) They took precautions around covid to keep humans and animals safe. I appreciated this so much.

3) Vet care is expensive, and there's no way around that, so it's nice that their loyalty program gives you discounts after you rack up a certain amount of points.
