Veterinary Surgical Specialists

Our dog hurt her knee and required surgery to heal. The staff was very friendly, knowledgeable and helpful throughout the whole process. While knee surgery is never inexpensive, the piece was reasonable and included all follow up appointments. Our dog is happy and healing. Each follow up, the staff has been prompt and made the appointments easy. I would recommend anyone needing surgical options for their animals to consider them.

This is the most wonderful place to take your animal ❤️ every employee is simply amazing, friendly & knowledgeable! Dr. Thomas got us in immediately, and unlike other vets we had taken Mika to, whom said she would need surgery for a break in her leg, Dr. Thomas quickly let us know she didn't need surgery! Our treatment plan was explained to us in depth & was very cost effective for what was required to get our sweet little Shiba Inu back to her normal self* Trust no other place for your surgical needs, I won't. Thank you all so much!

I had to take my American Bulldog, Cali, there to get a consult and surgery. The staff has been great with Cali and me. They would call for follow-ups and to make sure we are ok. I highly recommend them. They are kind, professional, and helpful.

I brought my Rescue Rufus here for knee surgery, I found him on the street took him to the Tampa Humane Society for a Chip Scan, they Found the owner and he said that he had relocated him already to a new home and that he couldn’t take care of him. After the stray hold Rufus tested Positive for Heart Worm and had a Torn CCL, The Humane society told me that they could take care of the Heart worm, but the Torn CCL was an expensive procedure that they couldn’t perform in their Hospital, and that they were going to put him to sleep unless I decided to take him and cover the surgery for the CCL. Insurances a don’t cover this kind of surgeries specially if they are pre existing before coverage so it had to be Out of Pocket, After many phone Calls I came across Veterinary Surgical Specialists, they had the most affordable price in town and Me and my family decided to schedule the surgery so we could take Rufus home with us! Dr. Leslie Thomas sat down with me and my wife, explained the procedure and told us that everything was going to be ok, they took great care of him, the whole staff is great from the moment you walk into the office until you leave! Definitely Recommend them! Wouldn’t go anywhere else if I ever need surgical services for my 4 legged kids! ThAnk you to all the staff that took great care of our Rufus!

Great dog surgeon! The office staff and Dr Thomas are fantastic! They got us in for a consult within a week and we're wonderful accommodating our drive from zephyrhills! We spoke with Dr Thomas during the consult where she advised my girl remmy did not infact have the suspected injury our primary vet advised of. While she still needed surgery, it wad cheaper and a better diagnosis than we had thought. We were kept informed every step of the way, Dr Thomas called HERSELF after surgery with an update and we were sent home with a clear healing plan and all the meds my girl needs to recover. The expense matches the quality and experience! Were so grateful!
