I have a blind Pit Bull Rescue. She is special needs, and they make every accommodation they can, to give her the care she needs, while respecting her situation. I have been bringing all my special needs rescues to them, and I can not say enough about the staff, Cait, Gabi, and all that make the traumatic experience so easy! The Vets are ALL amazing, and the way they work with you , is truly above and beyond. I can’t say enough positive things about everyone there! I have never had a doc, or Vet, go so far above to take care of my baby, and ME, for that matter, bc I was stressed knowing my poor baby was. And they were right on time. AMAZING Thanks everyone, Dina and Roxi.

I took my service dog here for the first time yesterday and we were both extremely pleased with the levels of care and service. They were very short staffed this week, but we got in because of cancelations. Oliver had skin problems and allergies that needed to be checked before they got worse or infected. It was also time for yearly shots and check-up. When we got there, they already had his previous records. The office staff greeted us promptly and everyone was very friendly and helpful. We saw Dr Lyon, who happened to be the only vet this week, but I was very impressed. She and the tech both obviously care a great deal about the animals they care for. My favorite thing is that they do the check and shots in the room. He had me right there, so no issues caused by separation anxiety. It's fairly common in this area to take the animal to the back for everything, but that makes it very difficult to monitor and guage the care provided. Dr Lyon is very knowledgeable and thorough. She is also very friendly and easy to talk to. Oliver has had skin problems and allergies since I got him and we've tried almost everything with our previous vet. She gave us an older option to try. I don't expect a miracle, but I appreciate her thinking outside the box. I've heard great things about Airport Veterinary Clinic from several of their customers over the last few years. Someone who works there was at the emergency vet the same time we were and she also had great things to say. When our previous vet's office had no appts this week, I decided it was time to try them out even though it's much further away. I'm definitely glad I did. The care is worth the drive to Destin and I'll be taking my other fur babies here too.

Love this place! The entire staff takes such special care of every animal, is always so kind and responsive. On multiple occasions, they are able to get us in same day, provide clear communication and always call the next day to check in. They’ve taken fantastic care of our pup and we’d recommend them to everyone!

Chopper loves Dr. Lyon and everyone at Airport vet. The ladies at the front desk are so helpful and always make him feel welcomed and special. He actually enjoys his visits there and wants everyone to know that he feels safe and well taken care of after his appointments.
