Business, Places and Things I recommend in Brevard County-Part Two



 The next recommendation I have for a service provider in Brevard County Florida is for a Veterinary Office. Anyone that knows me knows how much I love my dogs.  It is important for me to have a Vet that is not only going to be kind to my dogs, but that knows what they are doing and doesn’t charge an arm and a leg.  One such Veterinary office in Brevard county is:  Palm Bay Animal Clinic.  The Veterinarians at the clinic are: Drs. Paul & Jen Sikoski.  We usually see Dr Jen, but she was out the last time Sadie wasn’t feeling well, so she got to see Dr Paul.  Sadie hadn’t been feeling well, was not acting like her regular crazy self, seemed a bit warm, and was limping, so I made an appointment for her to go to the office.  They were able to see her that same day. 

This was Sadie on her way to the Vet.  She loves riding in the car.  

One of the things that I like about the office is that neither Dr suggests a bunch of unnecessary tests, just to get your money. Dr Paul told us that is could be a couple of things with Sadie, and some additional tests and even an x-ray could be done, but the treatment would be the same regardless, so unless we needed to know exactly what was wrong, he suggested just starting her on some antibiotics and bed rest.  The antibiotics were the easy part, even though she is not very cooperative at taking medicine, the resting was almost impossible.  She did manage to get better though, so that’s all that matters. 

The staff at the office is really easy to work with and very helpful.  The office was highly recommended to us from a lady we met through Lab Rescue of Brevard, She was the ‘foster mom” for Sadie and it just happened to be the week of Christmas two years ago that Sadie was given over to Lab Rescue and the weekend we were keeping her, to get to know her.  Being that it was Christmas, the foster mom had to go out of town, and wouldn’t you know it, Sadie got sick. She was vomiting and couldn’t hold anything down.  She was not legally our dog, but we couldn’t stand seeing her suffer, so we made the decision to take her to the vet. The vet we went to, charged us a lot of money, and there wasn’t even anything they could do.   She got better and we let the foster mom know what happened, not only did she get us re-imbursed for the vet bill, she recommended a new vet, and that was Palm Bay Animal Clinic.  We have been taking both dogs to them ever since. 

Cooper was even featured on their face book page: https://www.facebook.com/PalmBayAnimalClinic/photos_stream 
After Dr Jen said we needed to put him on a diet and he lost 10 lbs. 

So if you are looking for a great Veterinary office in Brevard county Florida, give Palm Bay Animal Clinic a try.
