BluePearl Pet Hospital Fort Lauderdale

Nico Kuzak

I don’t usually leave long reviews, but I want to reflect the level of care that BluePearl showed my cat, Apache. After his blood and bile acid tests indicated liver issues—but ultrasounds came back normal—my primary vet referred me to Dr. Cannon and Dr. Frame. Dr. Cannon was the first to see Apache. Based on her expertise, she suspected a liver shunt, a rare condition in cats, and clearly explained what that meant using images and simple language. She put together a thoughtful medical and surgical plan to begin Apache’s recovery. Once Apache began his medication, I met with Dr. Frame, the surgeon. He walked me through every step of the process—before, during, and after surgery—and personally called me both before the procedure began and immediately afterward to update me. The surgery went smoothly, and the ICU nurses were incredibly kind, even letting me visit him right after. Post-operative recovery for liver shunt surgery can be unpredictable, but Dr. Frame remained accessible and responsive, always answering my calls and emails with care and clarity. Every follow-up visit was just as smooth, thanks to the consistently helpful and compassionate staff of nurses and anesthesiologists. I truly can’t recommend Dr. Frame , Dr. Cannon, and the entire Blue Pearl staff highly enough. Working at a 24/7 hospital is very tough, but every time I walked in the receptionists were very friendly. They really made this process very comfortable and thankfully ended with the most positive result!!

When your fur baby is injured it’s stressful and the sensitive care received from the Blue Pearl team was greatly appreciated. Every option and treatment plan was thoroughly discussed with me by the vets involved and the night nurse even sent me pictures of my pet during her stay at the hospital! The incredibly competent team performed a surgery that was tricky and were successful. Follow-up care was fantastic with the surgeon taking time again to discuss the healing process with me. Shout out to Dr. Kevin Frame for his skill, support and patience for my 101 questions. Highly recommend the team at Blue Pearl!!

I have been to my fair share of vets having dogs all my life, and Blue Pearl is top notch! The very best! First visit started through the emergency room. From very minute I walked in the door on that visit, I knew my baby would be getting the absolute best care. You can tell that all the employees love animals and to me that extremely important! It’s not just a job, but their passion. My baby had to have surgery with Dr. Frame. Never once did I feel pressured that it HAD to be done or else…. He took his time with us, never felt rushed. We had 2 appointments prior to the surgery and we always felt comfortable and heard. Never felt like a number like other places we have been. Even after the surgery, I called in the evening with questions I forgot to ask and never once did I feel I was a bother! The most amazing experience with an emergency vet and surgeon!

I will start by saying that this place is not cheap- in fact- it’s pretty expensive. That being said- they do offer care credit options. But….. but—- you get more than what you pay for. They have everything here for diagnostics, surgeries and almost all emergencies. I brought my 2 year old mini schnauzer in who was in labor and had a puppy stuck breach in the birth canal. It was not possible for her to deliver the puppy and when I arrived to emergency- they thought that puppy had died and the other 4 puppies were rapidly declining. They guaranteed they could save my dog- but were not sure about the rest. They did an emergency c section and not only saved my dog- but were able to save all of the puppies- all 5!! The staff was enthusiastic, supportive, friendly, nurturing and loving. I will use them for any serious future emergencies. I have been to other emergency centers for less money- and never left feeling confident in their diagnosis nor treatment. I have 100% confidence in the staff and docs at Blue Pearl. Thank you guys!! Mama and all 5 puppies are active and doing well because of u!!❤️🙏🏻

Dr Castaneda & nurse Chris took great care of our very sick cat. We brought him in at 2:30 AM and received a rare combination of kindness, patience & professional medical care. They explained the options for his treatment, what they were doing & why. Thanks to them he is healthy & happy again!
