Florida Veterinary Rehabilitation and Sports Medicine

I brought my GSD here for the first time a couple years ago for another opinion on Pennhip and OFA xrays that i took at my rDVM. I was worried because OFA said my dog was mildly dysplastic, but her Pennhip score was good/about breed average and she was not symptomatic at all (she is not a breeding prospect, but an athletic sport dog). Dr. Brown went over the xrays with me, examined her thoroughly and took measurements of her muscles. She made me feel at ease about my dogs results, and helps me ensure she is able to continue her activities/dog sports with no issues at our annual visits. She even sent me a document of exercises/stretches i can do with her before strenuous activities to warm her up. Several of my friends who are in dog sports also see Dr. Brown for their dogs for orthopedic check ups and care for injuries, shes a pretty well known lady! I am a technician at my dogs primary vet and recommend Dr. Brown all the time.

So glad to have Dr Brown and her staff here in Tampa area . My 2 yr old has hip dysplasia. Sad , I went to her to see what hope there was for him to live an active , long life . She is gentle and caring with my dog . She approached the situation with non- invasive, pro active protocol which included exercises to do to strengthen hips. She’s not an alarmist or kind of vet that goes straight to doomsday, or straight to surgery fix. Not going to empty your bank either ! They do take some pet insurance as well. I love her cautious yet honest approach and communication. She’s very supportive and encouraging. As treatment progressed I have taken him for in-house physical therapy and it is awesome . Staff are great, my dog trusts and works well with them. I’m already seeing improvements in my dogs gait. Highly recommended Dr Brown and her team

From the moment you open the door and through and through you know rehab is the focus. The soft rubberized (not mean slippery tile) flooring greets pups along with a friendly team. Regardless of the physical ailment the team is helpful, patient, and caring (with the pups and the humans). We love the variety of treatment options and the package discounts! Safety absolutely comes first here. I love the team will communicate with us via email and/or phone! We feel so lucky to have found Dr Brown and her amazing team!

My dog wouldn’t be happily enjoying his life without Dr. Brown. Last year, he tore his CCL and I thought his active life was over at eight years old. Luckily, I met two different dog parents who recommended Dr. Brown. For Maxwell, TPLO surgery was the best option. After surgery, we had a very thorough followup appointment with Dr. Brown, who sent along a few in-depth treatments plan options, including PT exercises and underwater treadmill. Within months, Maxwell’s muscles in his leg had grown strong enough to enjoy his normal life again. We stop in for a tune up from time to time but her prices are competitive, especially if buying packages. Thank you to Dr Brown and all the staff!
