General Info
Community Veterinary Hospital in Largo offers proactive veterinary services designed through an analysis of behavior patterns combined with seasonal risks and neighborhood rhythms which affect pet health throughout Florida. The initial phase of the visit involves discussing daily rhythms which include fluctuations in energy levels alongside dietary habits, social interactions, sleep quality, and environmental stress factors. The medical evaluation proceeds to a comprehensive full-body examination that incorporates joint testing alongside oral health assessments and dermatological screenings while also reviewing posture. The veterinarian records responses to tactile stimuli and applied pressure to assess potential discomfort, muscular tension, or movement restrictions. Analysts examine historical data to identify patterns suggesting metabolic shifts, musculoskeletal stress, or behavioral modifications. Community Veterinary Hospital provides diagnostic screenings along with vaccination programs and blood and fecal tests while also offering nutritional consults and pain management plans. The pattern of veterinary visits mirrors local climate conditions by showing increased appointments for allergies in spring parasites during summer and arthritis reviews in colder months. Breeds that show tendencies toward anxiety disorders or chronic health issues might benefit from staggered milestone visits to enhance monitoring. Pet owners receive detailed summaries alongside habit logs and follow-up care intervals while also being offered optional digital check-in options. Caretakers of senior pets and multiple animals have the option to request adaptive scheduling combined with telehealth services and behavior-linked recheck frameworks to maintain manageable care routines. Through structured observation combined with seasonal alignment techniques, Community Veterinary Hospital equips Largo pet owners along with those throughout Florida to predict and respond to their pets' needs—turning veterinary visits into a proactive care pattern.

I wish I didn't have to give Dr Mandelker 1 star because I would of given him 0 stars but it wasn't an option. I have been bringing my precious dog there for years & she developed a lump between her eyes so I brought her there & all he did was a smear! I also had advised him that she had been sneezing a lot & her eye was constantly watering. He told me that her tear duct was closed. I took her to Dr Stenzel & he knew immediately that there was something wrong with her! He did a cytology on her & immediately saw something he didn't like. So, he scheduled her for a biopsy & culture! I'm still waiting on the results. But, unfortunately he believes it might be nasal cancer. Please don't bring your pets to Dr Mandelker because I don't feel like he was aggressive enough in trying to diagnose what was wrong with her!
UPDATE - I received a call this morning from Dr Stenzel with devastating news. He told me that my precious little girl has nasal cancer! I'm so thankful that I took her to Dr Stenzel because now I know what is wrong with her. It's truly sad that Dr Mandelker couldn't give me those answers seeing he was her Veterinarian. That's why I had to get a 2nd opinion!

They don't deserve any stars at all. They lied to my sister. She brought in wildlife. They treated the raccoons and charged us a big bill. THEN called fish and wild life to report us and gave out personal information. When they should have taken the raccoons and taken them to a rescue themselves. This hospital is only about money.

My family has been taking our pets to Dr, Mendelker for 35 years starting with my first dog, Bear. Over the years my family has had approximately 12 different dogs so we have needed a very wide variety of services from simple vaccination to a full face lift on my English Bulldog Bubba. The staff have been compassionate and caring at all times. Recently I unfortunately had to have my Boxer euthanized due to heart failure. The Dr and staff tired everything possible to save my pet. I can not say enough good things about Community Veterinary Hospital.

My review is solely about the front desk staff, but we all know they are the gatekeepers who can make or break an experience. The front desk clerk was fabulous. We arrived without an appointment. The doctor was already done, yet the clerk went out of her way to help us find another option, even going the extra step to call ahead to another vet to say we were on the way! Thank you!!

Finding Dr. Mandelker and Community Veterinary Hospital was a blessing! He is outstanding by training and experience. He is both gentle in handling our dog (and others' pets), and cutting edge in providing quality care. I appreciate that he discusses such as diet, dental care and other issues that affect a pet's well being.

I have been a customer of Dr. Mandelker for over 15 years. Countless times he has opened his office after hours, to save my family pets. They are my family. One time my Sheltie Conker was in dire straights. The emergency clinic wanted $5,000.00 up front at 2:00 am just to admit him and watch him until the morning. I got Doc at home. Woke him up and he came in after hours on the weekend to help us. The emergency clinic said my dog had heart problems,, doc found a sepsis infection in the heart valve. A totally different diagnosis. We went with doc's diagnosis and he charged me $100.00 up front and total bill was $450.00+/-. One tenth of the emergency clinic. My dog was so sick he couldn't hold up his own head. Doc not only saved him but DID NOT cut him open like the emergency clinic wanted to. My best friend is still here and both of us owe Doctor Mandelker everything for what he did and how he did it. Nobody today cares more about helping save your pet without being a money mill than he does. He is old school and stands by his oath. Finally he worked with me on the bill so I could keep the lights on and still take care of my family. No amount of words can repay what doc has given me. If you love your pets, trust him and his experience, he won't ever let you down.

If you care about your animals do not go here. I paid to have my dog fixed. The doctor took my money with no problem, did surgery, but really did nothing to fix my buddy up. They put staples on his hind quarters and it made my $3500.00 English Bull Dog have a baboon butt. He was supposed to fix his eyes he over did them and removed the wrinkle above his nose. I almost cried when I saw my pup. He also makes up different prices for different people. I was told a price by one of his staff members, later that night I got a phone call saying he can't do the surgery for that price although she had gone into his office and confirmed the price with him when I was originally given the quote. Then his office manager told me that they fired this very nice young lady because of that situation. I have to say it made me angry and I told her that was completely unprofessional. You should never tell your customer they got someone fired. I don't even understand that, especially since she went into his office to confirm everything. I then got a dismal letter that looked like a first grader wrote it. By know means am I saying I am better than anyone, but I think I would have had the doctor proof read the letter since it came from his office with his name and signature on it. If anyone would like to read the letter I would be more than happy to let you read it. This letter alone will make you think twice before you let these people do anything on your fur babies.

We have lived here for 11 years, and have had all of our beloved pets treated by Dr. Mandelker. Many friends have tried to get us to try their vet, but Dr. Mandelker and his staff have been so wonderful about treating our cats as they aged and became ill. The staff was so caring and compassionate when it came time to make the decision to put them to sleep. So, it was a no brainer for us when we rescued a puppy that we would bring her here for care. The holistic approach to pet care is phenomenal. Dr. Mandelker suggested a change in diet to treat itching rather than prescribing medications...and it has been a miraculous thing! Thank you all for the years of caring and compassionate care! We can't imagine going anywhere else.

I ended up having to euthanizemy dog. They were very caring and extremely comforting. They helped in making all the arrangements for the cremation. I didn't want to leave, and they let me stay as long as I needed. They all have beautiful hearts. R.I.P. my dear Roxie.

He has solved problems with her that no other Doctor was able to solve and for that, my husband and I are very grateful. The staff is caring and always there when we need them, we would definitely recommend Community Veterinary Hospital.

My review is solely about the front desk staff, but we all know they are the gatekeepers who can make or break an experience. The front desk clerk was fabulous. We arrived without an appointment. The doctor was already done, yet the clerk went out of her way to help us find another option, even going the extra step to call ahead to another vet to say we were on the way! Thank you!!

Finding Dr. Mandelker and Community Veterinary Hospital was a blessing! He is outstanding by training and experience. He is both gentle in handling our dog (and others' pets), and cutting edge in providing quality care. I appreciate that he discusses such as diet, dental care and other issues that affect a pet's well being.

This was the only place out of many, that my dog was accurately diagnosed for severe allergies in the bay area. After nearly 8 yrs of my poor dog being in misery, Community Vet gave her the treatment she needed and relief! Dr.M. knows his stuff and is outstanding in his line of work. The office is also extremely reasonable with cost.

I have been a customer of Dr. Mandelker for over 15 years. Countless times he has opened his office after hours, to save my family pets. They are my family. One time my Sheltie Conker was in dire straights. The emergency clinic wanted $5,000.00 up front at 2:00 am just to admit him and watch him until the morning. I got Doc at home. Woke him up and he came in after hours on the weekend to help us. The emergency clinic said my dog had heart problems,, doc found a sepsis infection in the heart valve. A totally different diagnosis. We went with doc's diagnosis and he charged me $100.00 up front and total bill was $450.00+/-. One tenth of the emergency clinic. My dog was so sick he couldn't hold up his own head. Doc not only saved him but DID NOT cut him open like the emergency clinic wanted to. My best friend is still here and both of us owe Doctor Mandelker everything for what he did and how he did it. Nobody today cares more about helping save your pet without being a money mill than he does. He is old school and stands by his oath. Finally he worked with me on the bill so I could keep the lights on and still take care of my family. No amount of words can repay what doc has given me. If you love your pets, trust him and his experience, he won't ever let you down.

If you care about your animals do not go here. I paid to have my dog fixed. The doctor took my money with no problem, did surgery, but really did nothing to fix my buddy up. They put staples on his hind quarters and it made my $3500.00 English Bull Dog have a baboon butt. He was supposed to fix his eyes he over did them and removed the wrinkle above his nose. I almost cried when I saw my pup. He also makes up different prices for different people. I was told a price by one of his staff members, later that night I got a phone call saying he can't do the surgery for that price although she had gone into his office and confirmed the price with him when I was originally given the quote. Then his office manager told me that they fired this very nice young lady because of that situation. I have to say it made me angry and I told her that was completely unprofessional. You should never tell your customer they got someone fired. I don't even understand that, especially since she went into his office to confirm everything. I then got a dismal letter that looked like a first grader wrote it. By know means am I saying I am better than anyone, but I think I would have had the doctor proof read the letter since it came from his office with his name and signature on it. If anyone would like to read the letter I would be more than happy to let you read it. This letter alone will make you think twice before you let these people do anything on your fur babies.

We have lived here for 11 years, and have had all of our beloved pets treated by Dr. Mandelker. Many friends have tried to get us to try their vet, but Dr. Mandelker and his staff have been so wonderful about treating our cats as they aged and became ill. The staff was so caring and compassionate when it came time to make the decision to put them to sleep. So, it was a no brainer for us when we rescued a puppy that we would bring her here for care. The holistic approach to pet care is phenomenal. Dr. Mandelker suggested a change in diet to treat itching rather than prescribing medications...and it has been a miraculous thing! Thank you all for the years of caring and compassionate care! We can't imagine going anywhere else.
