Both Dr. Marmesh & Dr. Kate are the best vets in town. No appointments, walk-ins only for office visits. Honest vets and friendly staff. My family has been taking pets to Coconut Grove Animal Clinic since before I was born. Read Less

Both Dr. M and his daughter are amazing vets. I lived in the Grove for two years and have been taking my three dogs there ever since and I have never had a bad experience. They remember my dogs' names and are always friendly. AND THEY ARE EXTREMELY AFFORDABLE. Probably the cheapest vet visits I have ever had. Our black lab needed some fatty tumors biopsied and they did it for free. There is no other vet like this in Miami. They are not charging you for a fancy office. You are only being charged for your pets' needs. The bad reviews on here are ridiculous. One lady seemed neurotic because the vet didn't give her a step-by-step explanation (Why didn't she ask questions like every other normal person?). The other bad review was made by another neurotic human because the vet didn't want to write four prescriptions for food so her ridiculous cat could have "variety". Get over yourself. People like that need to stop wasting people's time. If your animals need care, go see either Dr. M at this location and your animals will receive the best care for the most affordable prices. I will never go anywhere else. Read Less

I have been going to Coconut Grove Animal Clinic since 2011. The doctors (Dr. Kate and Dr. Michael) the technicians and the office staff are professional and friendly. I love that you don't need an appointment to see them and their prices are very reasonable  I highly recommend them. Read Less

First time ever going there today! Arrived at 1:55 on a monday and at 2 o'clock they let you right in. Was the second person there and quickly signed in and they registered my dog because she was a first-time patient. Waited maybe 3 min sitting down and Dr. Mike called my doggies name. Gave her a good look over, took her temp, looked at her eyes and checked her breathing. we then talked about her health and he answered a couple of my questions and prescribed me the medicine She needed. Sweet and simple, took maybe 30 min in total, We'll see if this medicine does the trick if not I'll be back and I have a new load of questions for him! In conclusion, I walked out of there with most of my money left and my mind was at ease! Read Less

I've had consistently good experiences -- more importantly, my dogs have had consistently good experiences. The Marmeshes are terrific vets, and they really have a gentle way with animals. Treatments have been invariably effective, and I've no intention of going elsewhere. Only quibble is the inability to arrange an appointment. I have on an occasion or two waited more than an hour, and in a waiting room packed with animals that is challenging. But like I say, this is the place for me, and I'm grateful for the quality attention given to my pups. Read Less

We have been going there for many years. I live miles away, but don't mind the ride at all because this is the best vet in town. Both father and daughter veterinarians are excellent doctors and very conscientious. Simply the best :) Read Less

I recently visited this clinic for the first time with my sick little dog, and it could not have been a  better experience. Based on our excellent first visit, the Coconut Grove Animal Clinic will now be our new primary veterinary clinic!The office staff members (two women) were courteous, professional, and efficient. Both the vet (Dr. Kate Marmesh) and her technician were very kind and friendly to both my dog and me.I am so pleased that this clinic doesn't use appointments for most pet health issues because our visit was an emergency one (my dog had stopped eating). The clinic is located across the street from the Coconut Grove Post Office near CocoWalk. I was able to quickly find a metered city parking spot right on Grand Avenue, and I used the convenient Pay-by-Phone app to pay. We didn't arrive at the clinic until nearly 4 pm. I was nervous that we would be too late, but it wasn't a problem with the clinic.The clinic's first come, first served policy works perfectly. Our wait was about 50 minutes, and we left shortly after 5 pm. (Clinic hours are from 9 am to 12 noon and 2 pm to 5 pm.) I am not 100% certain, but it appears that the vet continued to work and see all of the other pets that entered the clinic before the clinic door was locked at 5 pm.Dr. Marmesh did the fecal lab test with a microscope right in front of me. We got a quick diagnosis from her, and she immediately began treatment. The charge was VERY reasonable. My dog was fecal tested, diagnosed, given a shot, and I received two syringes of oral medication for $46. My dog still needs some more tests and vaccinations, but there was no pressure to buy any service or products here. Because I was given the option of whether to do certain tests, it was clear to me that this is an honest business.I have already made another appointment for my dog to have her teeth cleaned ($195) and take care of those other tests and vaccinations. As I wrote in my intro, Dr. Marmesh will now be our primary vet because of our terrific first experience. Lastly, I strongly disagree with reviewer Michelle D.'s "Pro-tip" about buying prescription food at a Petsmart to save $3. The low cost of the services and the convenience of this terrific but small family-owned clinic is reason enough to buy prescription dog food from them instead of buying from a mega-chain to save $3.  Sure, I could get our needed dog vaccinations a little cheaper from that roving vendor that visits Walgreens, but that vendor isn't the one advising me on my dog's health and treating her when we need it. I will gladly pay a little more for my pet health products to keep my local vet in business. Regardless of which vet you choose, you should bring your pet to your treating vet whenever your pet needs regular checkups and vaccinations; not just when your pet is sick or hurt. Support your local small businesses!Thank you, Coconut Grove Animal Clinic!P.S. Our prior vet was Bild Animal Hospital in North Miami, which is another a similar, affordable, excellent veterinary clinic.  We left that clinic only because we moved further south and because Bild doesn't have afternoon hours.

That was our first time being there. In a nutshell, they are focused on servicing clients instead of having a fancy decoration or equipment. Great service and friendly place. I highly recommend it. 5 stars deserved! Read Less

They turn away Bully Breeds (and with a bad attitude) enough said!!  they will not even attend rescue dogs, really unheard of, who wants to visit a doctor who chooses his patients??  So many other amazing Veterinarians in the area. You Silver bluff  on 27 Av and then a smaller pops and sons in front of Miami high Aguiar animal hospital! Both have an amazing staff, clean and Aguiar Senior is inexpensive and considerate when it comes down to surgeries and special needs pets. Read Less

My fur-baby has been a patient at the Coconut Grove Animal Clinic for most of his life. I first found out about this clinic through my sister and I'm so glad for it! (We used to go to Banfield and that was awful and awfully expensive!)Dr. Marmesh (and his daughter, also Dr. Marmesh) both take good care of Cooper. They are always thorough, efficient and very knowledgeable. Located in bustling Coconut Grove, parking is limited to the street but I always find a spot right away. Remember that they close from 12:00pm to 2:00pm daily. Bruna works mostly in the front but everyone there does a bit of everything. She is amazing and is a major major part of why I feel so comfortable boarding Cooper with them. Cooper absolutely loves her and we do too! She is usually the one to answer the phone if you call. Which, btw,  you can order your pets prescription meds to be delivered to your house (~$5 fee for delivery). They are always very quick to get them in the mail to me (luckily, the post office is across the street from them.)I love the family at Coconut Grove Animal Clinic. Thank you for always taking such good care of my baby. :) Read Less

I wish there was more than 5 stars! Dr. Marmesh (Kate) and the ENTIRE STAFF were so amazing. Friendly, efficient, reasonably priced...and they got me right in! You have new patients. You're not getting rid of us now! Once again, thank you, thank you, THANK YOU! Incredible!! Read Less

Oy, with the poodles already. Need a vet-doc, fast? This place is your jam! We've been bringing our Yellow Lab, Golden Retriever-Chow and Calico here for years. Intimate waiting room with only a few rooms, for appointments, after that. Honestly, the staff is mostly nice. You just have to ask the right questions. Speaking of right, I wish they would write stuff down. The other day, my Mother-In-Law was helping me out. Brought my dog in for his latest flea medication. Only to learn, they didn't document the last time I made a purchase for it. He was almost medicated twice in one day! Luckily, said Mom-in-Law asked me before she had the meds administered at the Clinic. Phew. Heart attack averted. Technically, there's only street metered parking. In actuality, there's a tiny lot behind the Clinic, too. It's just challenging to access. They take a lunch from 12pm - 2pm and don't take appointments. Plan accordingly! Pro-tip: price-shop around for pet medications. I paid $25 for a small bag of Hill's Prescription Diet k/d Kidney Care Dry Cat Food. Found it for $22 at PetSmart and cheaper online. Read Less

Professional and qualified, Drs. Marmesh (both Michael and Katy) treat our dogs with compassion and kindness while providing us  the comfort of knowing our pets are receiving top quality diagnoses and treatment. We (including  a brother and our parents)  have all  used Coconut Grove Animal Clinic with confidence since 1976: that means, three generations!  We remember Michael's parents with great fondness, they were the pioneers of Coconut Grove Animal Clinic! The Maer and Taylor families Read Less

Coconut Grove Animal Clinic is absolutely amazing. I was in from out of town and my little yorkie London had an upset tummy. They are a walk in clinic so no appointment necessary. The staff is so kind and and it's family practice. Highly recommend!! Thank you for taking care of London! Read Less

I have taken both of my dogs here for about six years now, aside from after hours emergency visits to other vets.  I just adore the Marmish family and their staff and completely love and appreciate the level of service they provide.  I really like that I don't need an appointment, because let's face it most vets keep you waiting anyways.  My dogs are like kids to me, so I'm here more than I would like.The place is no frills and may not seem modern, but they'll do blood work on the spot.  They're fully equipped and if they think your pet has an issue they can't handle, won't hesitate to recommend you to a specialist.The office staff runs the place like a well oiled machine and it's pretty amazing how they all work so well together.  I'm really amazed at some of the reviews here, I've never had an issue with anyone being rude to me.  I have seen the occasional unreasonable request like this one lady being very angry because she was a doctor (yeah okay) and wanted to inject her dog herself with a medication that had some very specific dosage requirements based on weight and blood parameters.  So I'm sure some of those folks have some reviews on here.  So it's inexpensive but tiny, there's plenty of metered parking around,  there are no appointments, the staff is great and the vets are awesome.   It's really a small town sorta feeling place and I love it!!

Been going to Grove Animal Clinic for years (decades actually, getting old).  Besides the fact that they are a neighborhood institution and multi-generation family run veterinarians, they are one of the few clinics that are local and not part of some sad chain run by the HMO's of the pet world.They treat the animals right, even my as**ole of a dachshund who is so old that he's practically deaf and blind.  Oh and he likes to bite people when he's scared.  They aren't uber expensive either and they get you in and out quickly which is worth even more than the kindness they show the pets.The staff is nice and friendly to humans and animals alike.  They board on short notice, which is great if you are a real person that can't always plan everything ahead when it comes to family emergencies or last minute work trips.  Lastly, they are quick and there is great food around the corner while you wait or after you drop off.

I Have to say that the veterinary is not friendly ... But as human we are not his concern , our  pets are .I love the fact that you don't Have to schedule an appointment , i recommend to go at 9:00am if you don't want to queue .He can tell you in 2 min what's wrong with your best friend , you can see that he loves animal.He  analyzes right away with his microscope whatever needs to be check . I Have 2 Bostons terrier , 1 frenchie , 1 maltese  and all my little family is very grateful to his services .The office is nothing fancy , the price are very correct and he never been wrong so far !

I'm very happy to recommend coconut grove animal clinic as they are very knowledgeable and professional people.

My Cat is alive thanks to Dr Marmesh!! If I had taken my cat to a vet on the beach, he would not have been saved. I prayed to God and ended up at CGAC. They are honest and actually care about the well being of animals ;))Read Less

I used to take my dogs there a long time ago - when they were cheap. It seems one day something clicked in Dr. Marmesh's brain and he got greedy. It's true what others have said - Dr. Marmesh (the Dad) is very curt and unfriendly. Dr. Marmesh (the Daughter) is not like him at all. Shame they've taken the greedy road - like most Vets (and Dentists, and some Dr.s) do.. Read Less

Always quick, I've first went with a lady that rescues lots and lots of cats.. one vet told her 3000 dollars to save her cats eye.. we took her cat he prescribed a drop which 2 years later the cats eye is perfect and she paid less than 100 now My kitten has been there due to injury we can't save his eye. But I believe and trust this vet did what he could and didn't rob me. Now onto the optometrist. Let's see how that goes. Will let everyone know that's for sureRead Less

I can't say enough great things about this place. Third generation vet's office. Dr. Michael Marmesh and Dr. Kate Marmesh are both AMAZING. My parents drive from Westchester to take their cats here and my husband and I drive from south beach to take our dogs. VERY well priced, excellent care and bedside manner. Super accessible and simple and free street parking before 10am (we usually take our pups at 9am right when they open since its first-come). Most people I know with pets also come here...from far and wide. The best. Period. Read Less

First time visiting with my pet. Great service. Thorough, yet to the point. They do not try to sell you unnecessary products or services. My pet was treated very well and we will definitely return. Thank you for everything ! Read Less

I called simply to make an appointment for my dog the over-the-phone service was rude, abrupt, and unfriendly. I'm applaud that they would treat a potential customer as such. I am new to the area and would have liked to set up a proper time with the vet. Read Less

I agree how much they care about our pets. Of course they are family and they fine a way to help. If you ever have a difficult situation with your pet I greatly recommend this place. My pomeranian was saved from surgery, he simply had the worst ear infection and with the right medication and dedication he is doing great Thanks Coconut Grove Animal Clinic Dr Marmesh you are Superb!!!!!

We just moved to the area and needed to see a vet for our dog who had hurt his paw. They opened at 9AM, I went in at 9:15 as a drop-in and was seen within 10 minutes of being there. The vet was friendly and quick. I was in and out of there in 20 minutes all together.Overall, great experience. Hopefully we don't need to come back, but if we do, we won't mind! Read Less

I have come here since I was a kid for my pets. The service and professionalism is unbeatable. I bring my mini-schnauzer here now and only trust this location with my pet. She comes here every year for her shots and it's the only place that won't take a life pay check from you. The office manager knows how to do her job correctly, efficiently and keeps it professional. I witnessed a lady come in with the story that she needed to skip the line because she had to live on a plane in an hour. There was a waiting room full of people. The office manager was happy to do it, however, she asked the lady to ask the waiting room for permission. I grew some respect because the people in the waiting room had been waiting quiet some time. This is a family owned business and its one of the reasons I come here. I like supporting businesses that theirs. I recommend this vet to everyone and I'll continue to so. Read Less

This review is for the front desk. I groomed a pet that is a patient at this veterinary clinic, and the dog was in an abusive condition. I called the veterinary clinic to let them know about the situation so perhaps they could try to contact the owner and encourage them to take their dog in. The receptionist (a man) literally just hung up on me while I was mid sentence. How rude and unprofessional. This is no way to treat a concerned client. Shame on you, Coconut Grove Animal Clinic. Read Less

Been coming here for years, no fees just for walking in the door. Affordable n Dr. Marmesh really loves Animals. Great way to support small family owned buisness. Yeah its not sleek and modern and the waiting room is nothing but a small lil room with a bit of dog hair on floor, but who cares? i don't want to be charged just for walking in do you?Its the grove, its an old tiny building and i dont think they plan on remodeling it. They have other things to worry about, like taking care of your pet and keeping costs low. Read Less

Was looking for a new vet for my two cats and this place was mentioned to me more than once and the reviews seemed decent so I called and they do not take appointments, first come, first serve.  OK, we get there with my two cats and my daughter's cat on a Saturday afternoon.  First of all the parking is a complete and utter nightmare in this area.  If you can not find street metered parking good luck.The office reopened after lunch at 2pm, when we got there.  We had about five people ahead of us.  The waiting area is small, cramped and  as they are taking your info where their counter is by the front door anytime someone walks in or out you are getting hit by the door.  Even worse your animals are.  The staff are not friendly at all, actually kind of rude.So we wait and wait patiently until about one hour later we get called in.  We had the female vet, in which I believe is the daughter.  Within the first five minutes I so knew we had made a huge mistake coming here.  The doctor was talking to the male nurse the entire time.  I had told her my cats had been vomiting and I feel they have lost some weight.  Immediately she tells me they are both dehydrated and tells me they need liquid through an IV.  Then she goes on to tell me I need to get full blood work done up on both of them because it could be thyroid or kidney failure.  No bedside manner whatsoever she tells me well that is the number one cause of cat's death. And my cat's are getting up there in age.I let her do the blood work which was quite stressful one one of my cat's because neither her or the nurse could find the vein.  After many pokes they finally got the blood out.  No warm and fuzzy's here.  The entire office visit which was at least one hour the doctor talked to the nurse the entire time.  Listen no problem on YOUR time, not mine.  It really annoyed me that I listened to her diet, what she did last night, blah blah. Honestly it was very unprofessional and rude!We leave I get my bill with hundreds of dollars later and am told they will call me when the blood work comes back. They did call on Monday in which I was worried to death.  They tell me both my cat's look very healthy because the blood work came back great on everything.  I was so excited to hear the news I thanked them and hung up.  I still had no answers and just spent a small fortune, Fast forward one week later I have to rush my cat in to an emergency vet because he had a tumor on his paw that erupted. I am not blaming the other vet for not seeing it but maybe if closer attention would have been paid instead of all the talking about personal issues then maybe just maybe with a real exam she would have caught it.Very disappointed in this vet's office.
