Coastal Animal Clinic - Tampa

I no longer trust this clinic. My two dogs have been coming here for the last year, since we moved to Tampa. However, our first appointment took over 2.5 hours. Which is unacceptable for an annual check up. I had to take a half day off of work just to drive here, stay at the appointment and go home when our previous vet did an annual exam in about 30 mins. Secondly, they take the dogs to the back to do anything and it makes me uncomfortable. I would like to see what they are doing that is taking so long. The next time we came it was much more efficient visit. When looking into spaying for our mini Aussie, they estimated us some egregious amount.

This was my first time at Coastal Vet and I was referred by a neighbor. Absolutely love the staff and the environment! So happy to be be there and have a great experience with them being a new Vet for my pups.

I got there a few mins behind. So instead of calling me to see if I was almost there or needed to reschedule. I was told when I walked in the vet had went to lunch already and he couldn’t fit me in later! Felt that was very rude after having me reschedule because of the vet running behind himself! I wouldn’t recommend traveling the distance to see this vet! It was definitely not worth my time or having to deal with the ridiculous traffic nor for me to be unders

We came in for a consult for acupuncture with Dr. DeRosa. Everyone was very pleasant and welcoming. My dog is terrified of strangers but Dr. DeRosa and the assisting tech got on the floor with her and were able to make friends with her. We came back yesterday for our first acupuncture and we were met with the same patience. Dr. DeRosa did an excellent job of explaining the process and providing me with options for the best possible outcome while educating me on potential long term issues so that I can make better informed decisions on future care.
