Paws and Claws Medical Center

Dr. De Armas and his staff are remarkable! My 14 year old Yorkie was in so much pain and I thought I was going to have to say goodbye to her 😢 I called the office early in the morning and they received her right away. Dr. De Armas knew immediately just by seeing her walk a few steps that she was having an arthritis crisis and he put her on a plan immediately. She was under his care for 2 days and is now back home thriving and pain free. She will have to continue with her medications for some time but his knowledge and quick care saved her, saving me the devastation of having to see her in pain. I highly recommend Dr. De Armas and will continue to take all of my pets to him as he sees all pets from A to Z! Thank you from the bottom of my heart to everyone at Paws and Claws! They are top care and professionals!

Absolutely one of the best Bunny/ rabbit savvy vet in S. Florida. My sweet Oliver had a random abscess appear which grew quickly. Dr. De Armas gave me options and ultimately had to have surgery. It was a scary situation but I had faith in him and his staff and Oli has made a fully recovery. Bunnies are not cheap but he is still with us and that’s all that matters. In addition, I also have to thank the clinic for caring for our other pet Blue, Russian blue cat, who had odd raw rashes and with treatment has been back to his regular self. Highly recommend Paws and Claws for your pets but especially for your rabbits.

How do I explain… Pets are more than a simple possession, they are spirits, just like we are. Our little Henry provides more for us, than we could ever offer him in exchange for his captivity and presence in our lives. But we try with everything we have to provide him the happiest most comfortable life we can. So when we needed to find a vet for his surgeries, with Henry being a little dwarf Holland lop rabbit, we knew it wouldn’t be easy. But we had to do everything we could to find the absolute best care for him that we could afford. Many vets simply don’t possess the licensing and knowledge to take care of rabbits medically, and if they do, they lack what is necessary to instill a feeling of confidence, and sense of their humanity when it comes to handling pets and their owners. He was originally supposed to go to another vet for this surgery, but something inside me on that fateful morning just stopped me, right before we were scheduled to take him in. It just didn’t feel right. After a close call with making the wrong choice, I decided it was best to look again and I ended up researching “Best rabbit vet in Florida” Henry’s life weighed in the balance so we were willing to do whatever was necessary. We were so relieved to find Dr. Armas among the top in the state of Florida, and as a consolation for us, it didn’t mean an overnight trip. Did I feel bad for cancelling on the other vet? Well, in the grand scheme of things, to them, it is a business. But for Henry, it meant the difference between his life or death and I absolutely, unapologetically made the right choice! I will never take Henry anywhere else. The treatment we received from Dr. Armas and all of his staff was unparalleled from anything I have ever experienced. You can tell I’m a fussy pet owner, and I believe they cared every bit as much for Henry’s well-being and existence as we do. It’s three days since his surgery now, and while he is still recovering after such an uncertain and scary time for him, he is doing super well considering, We’ll never be able to repay Dr. Armas and his staff for their kindness, care, patience and handling of our little fluffy Henry, other than to share the fact that because of him and everyone at Paws and Claws, we can continue having Henry in our lives another day.

Took my 2 turtles with a really bad eye infection, they hadn’t opened their eyes and had not been eating in 2 weeks. I called several places and thank God Stephanie the receptionist gave me an appointment immediately. 3 days after being treated by Dr. Ramon De Armas they started to eat and 5 days later they have started to open their eyes with the medications he put them one. Jessica the nurse that gives them their treatments has been amazing, the entire staff has demonstrated to care for my Babies 🐢🐢 Thank you All, from Donatella & Baby
