Village Animal Clinic
North Palm Beach, Florida
General Info
Village Animal Clinic in North Palm Beach delivers a veterinary experience for Florida pets and their caregivers that uses observational methods based on animal exploration, settling behaviors, and change processing. When animals arrive they undergo observation during check-in which includes their responses to scent layers flooring texture eye contact and nearby movement instead of just medical checks. The examination process initiates clinicians to modify their approach through posture signals and handling feedback—adjusting speed or pausing when detecting restlessness, breath variations, or resistance. Medical assessments involve intricate examinations of fur thickness combined with evaluations of bodily moisture levels and muscle structure alongside tests for limb response and dental surface condition as well as oral temperature and abdominal pliability. Property proprietors receive invitations to discuss recent domestic conduct changes—subtle adjustments in daily routines along with vocal variations and energy patterns provide guidance for subsequent actions. Village Animal Clinic delivers structured diagnostic services alongside immunizations and pain tracking while providing aging wellness protocols and collaborative illness mapping. The scheduling system enables either one-time visits or extended multi-day sessions based on the collective emotional capacity of both pets and their human environments. Communication across visits is supported through the integration of visual tools such as diagrams tracking calendars and photo logs. The concept of follow-up care transforms from simple reminders into complex dialogues. The process of check-ins depends on behavioral settling instead of mere timeframes. Pet owners receive training to track their pets' sensory balance and activity re-engagement following visits, focusing on animals that either withdraw or become externalized after intense stimulation experiences. Village Animal Clinic delivers veterinary services in North Palm Beach and nearby Florida regions by initiating care with awareness while supporting home routines and respecting physical and emotional boundaries throughout the process.

Well it's a very difficult situation when you bring a very sick animal to a new vet. My 15 year old terrier/whippet mix, Tito had been ill with bouts of vomiting and diarrhea for many months. My vet in NH had put him on de-wormer and an antibiotic. We left -5 temps and headed to Florida.
Dr Jennifer Prior had bloodwork done and for the first time I realized Tito was anemic. We tried stomach-coating meds, antacids, anti-nausea meds and in desperation, a transfusion. The transfusion boosted him up for 2+ weeks, but later he declined rapidly. Dr Prior was there when we euthanized my beloved pet. This is the worst thing an owner or vet has to do. I appreciate that Dr Prior helped me navigate helping my suffering dog every step of the way.

Sneezy was a mega healthy 7 year old pure bred Blue Heeler and a natural born athlete. Never been sick a day in his life. One day, He looked like he may have twisted his neck or something. I took him to see Dr. Wilson 5 times in 3 1/2 weeks and Sneezy seemed to be getting worse, not better. Dr. Wilson repeatedly misdiagnosed him, took tons of unnecessary tests, gave him improper meds, and overlooked the real problem which OBVIOUSLY was much more serious than a sore neck. He was scheduled to have a scan of his head on a Monday morning but he died late that Sunday night less than 72 hours after leaving Dr. Wilson and VAC office (5th time). There's more and it gets a lot worse.. In Closing: Choose your Veterinarian wisely.

I should have written this review sooner but I just saw your Christmas photo and it reminded me. I brought my dog Rocky there June of 2015 after being misdiagnosed numerous times by another Vet in Palm Beach. Rocky had been throwing up and having diarrhea every few months. After being on numerous antibiotics he collapsed while walking. I brought him to Dr. Wilson. She diagnosed him with irritable bowel syndrome and colitis. He's only had one bout since then. He's been a happy and healthy Havanese. We just adore Dr. Wilson.

This animal clinic has taken such great care of my 2 dogs. I had previously used another veterinarian for years and I became unhappy with the treatment I received from the vet himself to me after 25 years of loyalty. I found Village Animal Clinic through a friend's referral. I was extremely happy with their care the very first day I had an appointment. After my first few visits with both of my dogs, I wished I had found them sooner. My German Shepherd became ill with an immune disorder and acquired a staph infection. I almost lost her but, Dr. Wilson saved her life as the dog was ill for a 3 month period. She continues to thrive today on her 9th birthday. She still has puppy behavior and goes for walks every day. I have lost my Labrador this past year due to old age but, she was happy until the end. Both dogs were treated so well by the entire staff at this clinic. Staff knows their names and greets them on each visit. The people at this facility offer such tender loving care. Every veterinarian and each and every staff member were born to this calling of animal care. I am so happy to have found them and I've recommended their service to all of my animal friends.

Village Animal Clinic has been taking care of my family's pets for 43 years. They are (and always have been) incredibly caring and knowledgeable. Their staff is amazing - they know my pets and they remember my parents (and grandparents) and their pets. We have been to other vets when we have lived in other parts of the country for periods of time - and no other vet clinic compares. I recently moved to California but I call the doctors at Village for their advice frequently - Dr. Prior and Wilson are so helpful. My mother still lives in North Palm and her dog has been getting acupuncture from Dr Yu - and the acupuncture has helped SO much. I know my dog misses Doggie Day Care - she went there for 4 years and she loved it. Best Clinic Ever!

Tito, my 15-year old Scotty dog, has been on his last leg for a while now. His kidneys and liver were failing and he had bad blood in his urine. He felt like poo. As a last ditch effort I saw Dr Wu, and Tito is like a new dog now, after just two weeks! Dr Wu gave Tito acupuncture, prescribed some Chinese herbs, and switched his diet to a simple homemade recipe. Tito is back torturing the cat and answering the door when people call! He is totally off the antibiotics he had been prescribed for the rest of his life! Village Animal Clinic is full of nice and caring people. Thank you all

Village Animal Clinic has been our vet for the past 15 years where they have treated all three of our Rottweilers. Our 10 year old was diagnosed with an immune deficiency at a very young age. Thankfully Dr. Degan and Dr. Prior were quick to diagnose her and have kept her healthy and comfortable for the past 8 years. A year ago, we started her on acupuncture and laser therapy and immediately saw an improvement in her ability to get up and move around. We have also seen a big improvement in her disposition and overall happiness. She ABSOLUTELY LOVES coming in for treatment with Dr. Yu! We strongly believe the laser therapy and acupuncture has helped manage her pain as she has gotten older and would highly recommend the services to anyone who may be unsure if it works. We are so thankful for the veterinary services and care we have received from everyone at Village Animal Clinic.

Dr. Yu is one of a kind - he can truly speak to animals, is a world renown practitioner, and works in collaboration with the traditional vets at Village Animal Clinic to provide comprehensive care for your pet(s). He is caring, accommodates emergencies and scheduling issues, and loves his work. Further, Dr. Yu is experienced and continues to train to remain up to date. Dr. Yu takes the time to explain every detail of treatment, to connect with your pet and fully assess the patient needs, and to ensure that progress is appropriate. He follows up with phone calls and treatment suggestions. Dr. Yu is top of his profession, proving to be what those in the medical field would call distinguished and what others would call a miracle worker - he is able to relieve pain, cure illness, and find solutions when other vets may have run out of ideas or suggest surgery as a last resort. He is not, however, a quack, and does not exceed his scope of practice. He will recommend you see a traditional vet when needed and the other vets at Village Animal Clinic, where Dr. Yu's practice is based, are all excellent and work excellently with The Veterinary Center for Integrative Medicine. I cannot recommend the practice more strongly - and this is coming from someone who has been to other practitioners in both NYC and the Palm Beaches. Dr. Yu is top notch!

One of the best vet's that I have found in South Florida! Dr. Prior is an amazing vet! Even if I can't make an appointment but I have a question, the staff always care and promptly help me out with advice. My animals usually didn't like going to the vet, but here they are so nice, that my animals are actually happy about going to see the vet. It's so great that everyone specializes in something different, so you can really tailor your visit to what you really need. Instead of going to different places and paying extra for seeing different doctors. Great place!! Great staff!!

Dr. Prior and Dr. Degan and Sam and all the staff are absolutely amazing. I cannot say enough good things about the experience I have with this clinic. My yorkie, Tesla, is probably alive today thanks to the quick diagnosis and action of Dr. Prior and Dr. Degan. After 5 years of repeatedly crashing and burning with bleeding, abdominal pain, loss of appetite, dehydration, mountains of tests, special diets, medications and hospitalizations, which occurred every 6 months, I was referred to Village and Dr. Prior. Dr.s Prior and Degan. They not only treated the condition very quickly but have little Tesla on a pre-emptive regimen of one med twice weekly and simply one special canned food. It changed Tesla's life and mine. Dr.s Prior and Degan are so wonderful and Sam and the entire staff are so caring, professional and comforting. Little Tesla also got treated like a princess during her boarding stay, and for once, she boarded without any weight loss or anxiety. I could tell she was treated with love and tenderness. I can recommend this clinic without any reservation!

We used to go to a Veterinarian in Jupiter, where we live, and had numerous incidences of mixed up lab work, wrong records in our files, and more. We thought that this was our only problem. Our beloved Marina (Potcake Dog) had been deteriorating for about 6 months, and the old Veterinarian told us she was fine, and to take her back home. We sought out recommendations from friends, and the name Village Animal Clinic kept popping up, so we took Marina to them. We also had an older male cat, and a female mixed rescue. The people at Village Animal, who had never met us before, greeted us like family. They determined that there was absolutely issues with our dog, and set up a referral to see a Neurologist. While there, we wanted to move our cats over, so they examined them. They determined that the male cat had two abscessed teeth (he had just SUPPOSEDLY had them cleaned at old vet), and they asked what kind of heart meds our female was on. it turned out the female had had a progressive heart disease for years. We were referred to a cardiac specialist, and through medication, halted buildup in her heart, and had her for many years after. We continue to take our furry family to Village, driving past who knows how many veterinary offices, because we know they care. We have a 4 month old Lab puppy now, and a 3 year old exotic cat, and they love them both. We won't go anywhere else, and just wish we had found them years earlier. I don't know how they do it, but they always know who we are when we stop in to pick up food, or medication, and ask about our cat and dog, by name, without having to look in the files to see who we are. They really care......

I should have written this review sooner but I just saw your Christmas photo and it reminded me. I brought my dog Rocky there June of 2015 after being misdiagnosed numerous times by another Vet in Palm Beach. Rocky had been throwing up and having diarrhea every few months. After being on numerous antibiotics he collapsed while walking. I brought him to Dr. Wilson. She diagnosed him with irritable bowel syndrome and colitis. He's only had one bout since then. He's been a happy and healthy Havanese. We just adore Dr. Wilson.

This animal clinic has taken such great care of my 2 dogs. I had previously used another veterinarian for years and I became unhappy with the treatment I received from the vet himself to me after 25 years of loyalty. I found Village Animal Clinic through a friend's referral. I was extremely happy with their care the very first day I had an appointment. After my first few visits with both of my dogs, I wished I had found them sooner. My German Shepherd became ill with an immune disorder and acquired a staph infection. I almost lost her but, Dr. Wilson saved her life as the dog was ill for a 3 month period. She continues to thrive today on her 9th birthday. She still has puppy behavior and goes for walks every day. I have lost my Labrador this past year due to old age but, she was happy until the end. Both dogs were treated so well by the entire staff at this clinic. Staff knows their names and greets them on each visit. The people at this facility offer such tender loving care. Every veterinarian and each and every staff member were born to this calling of animal care. I am so happy to have found them and I've recommended their service to all of my animal friends.

Village Animal Clinic has been taking care of my family's pets for 43 years. They are (and always have been) incredibly caring and knowledgeable. Their staff is amazing - they know my pets and they remember my parents (and grandparents) and their pets. We have been to other vets when we have lived in other parts of the country for periods of time - and no other vet clinic compares. I recently moved to California but I call the doctors at Village for their advice frequently - Dr. Prior and Wilson are so helpful. My mother still lives in North Palm and her dog has been getting acupuncture from Dr Yu - and the acupuncture has helped SO much. I know my dog misses Doggie Day Care - she went there for 4 years and she loved it. Best Clinic Ever!

Tito, my 15-year old Scotty dog, has been on his last leg for a while now. His kidneys and liver were failing and he had bad blood in his urine. He felt like poo. As a last ditch effort I saw Dr Wu, and Tito is like a new dog now, after just two weeks! Dr Wu gave Tito acupuncture, prescribed some Chinese herbs, and switched his diet to a simple homemade recipe. Tito is back torturing the cat and answering the door when people call! He is totally off the antibiotics he had been prescribed for the rest of his life! Village Animal Clinic is full of nice and caring people. Thank you all

Village Animal Clinic has been our vet for the past 15 years where they have treated all three of our Rottweilers. Our 10 year old was diagnosed with an immune deficiency at a very young age. Thankfully Dr. Degan and Dr. Prior were quick to diagnose her and have kept her healthy and comfortable for the past 8 years. A year ago, we started her on acupuncture and laser therapy and immediately saw an improvement in her ability to get up and move around. We have also seen a big improvement in her disposition and overall happiness. She ABSOLUTELY LOVES coming in for treatment with Dr. Yu! We strongly believe the laser therapy and acupuncture has helped manage her pain as she has gotten older and would highly recommend the services to anyone who may be unsure if it works. We are so thankful for the veterinary services and care we have received from everyone at Village Animal Clinic.

Dr. Yu is one of a kind - he can truly speak to animals, is a world renown practitioner, and works in collaboration with the traditional vets at Village Animal Clinic to provide comprehensive care for your pet(s). He is caring, accommodates emergencies and scheduling issues, and loves his work. Further, Dr. Yu is experienced and continues to train to remain up to date. Dr. Yu takes the time to explain every detail of treatment, to connect with your pet and fully assess the patient needs, and to ensure that progress is appropriate. He follows up with phone calls and treatment suggestions. Dr. Yu is top of his profession, proving to be what those in the medical field would call distinguished and what others would call a miracle worker - he is able to relieve pain, cure illness, and find solutions when other vets may have run out of ideas or suggest surgery as a last resort. He is not, however, a quack, and does not exceed his scope of practice. He will recommend you see a traditional vet when needed and the other vets at Village Animal Clinic, where Dr. Yu's practice is based, are all excellent and work excellently with The Veterinary Center for Integrative Medicine. I cannot recommend the practice more strongly - and this is coming from someone who has been to other practitioners in both NYC and the Palm Beaches. Dr. Yu is top notch!

One of the best vet's that I have found in South Florida! Dr. Prior is an amazing vet! Even if I can't make an appointment but I have a question, the staff always care and promptly help me out with advice. My animals usually didn't like going to the vet, but here they are so nice, that my animals are actually happy about going to see the vet. It's so great that everyone specializes in something different, so you can really tailor your visit to what you really need. Instead of going to different places and paying extra for seeing different doctors. Great place!! Great staff!!

Dr Prior has an amazing "bedside" manner. Her expertise and experience is priceless and it's conveyed in a soft caring manner. The staff is wonderful and they were willing to work with us on payment as we addressed a major issue with our little Pom. He got the care immediately and his health wasn't jeopardized. This Clinic is an asset to all animal lovers. Thank you !!

Dr. Prior and Dr. Degan and Sam and all the staff are absolutely amazing. I cannot say enough good things about the experience I have with this clinic. My yorkie, Tesla, is probably alive today thanks to the quick diagnosis and action of Dr. Prior and Dr. Degan. After 5 years of repeatedly crashing and burning with bleeding, abdominal pain, loss of appetite, dehydration, mountains of tests, special diets, medications and hospitalizations, which occurred every 6 months, I was referred to Village and Dr. Prior. Dr.s Prior and Degan. They not only treated the condition very quickly but have little Tesla on a pre-emptive regimen of one med twice weekly and simply one special canned food. It changed Tesla's life and mine. Dr.s Prior and Degan are so wonderful and Sam and the entire staff are so caring, professional and comforting. Little Tesla also got treated like a princess during her boarding stay, and for once, she boarded without any weight loss or anxiety. I could tell she was treated with love and tenderness. I can recommend this clinic without any reservation!

My 4yr old Shih Tzu, named Bentley and I became a client of Dr Lapsley during his time at HAH. He's an amazing vet and helped Bentley with a slipped disk injury sustained last year. Dr Lapsley goes above and beyond for his patients which is why we followed him to VAC. We had our first visit and I was very impressed with the facility, the services they offer and the friendly staff. I highly recommend Village Animal Clinic!!

We used to go to a Veterinarian in Jupiter, where we live, and had numerous incidences of mixed up lab work, wrong records in our files, and more. We thought that this was our only problem. Our beloved Marina (Potcake Dog) had been deteriorating for about 6 months, and the old Veterinarian told us she was fine, and to take her back home. We sought out recommendations from friends, and the name Village Animal Clinic kept popping up, so we took Marina to them. We also had an older male cat, and a female mixed rescue. The people at Village Animal, who had never met us before, greeted us like family. They determined that there was absolutely issues with our dog, and set up a referral to see a Neurologist. While there, we wanted to move our cats over, so they examined them. They determined that the male cat had two abscessed teeth (he had just SUPPOSEDLY had them cleaned at old vet), and they asked what kind of heart meds our female was on. it turned out the female had had a progressive heart disease for years. We were referred to a cardiac specialist, and through medication, halted buildup in her heart, and had her for many years after. We continue to take our furry family to Village, driving past who knows how many veterinary offices, because we know they care. We have a 4 month old Lab puppy now, and a 3 year old exotic cat, and they love them both. We won't go anywhere else, and just wish we had found them years earlier. I don't know how they do it, but they always know who we are when we stop in to pick up food, or medication, and ask about our cat and dog, by name, without having to look in the files to see who we are. They really care......

Absolutely Amazing. Our Misty cannot wait to get in the door to see everyone. They are all so friendly and caring. And that's the front desk. The doctors and nurses are so knowledgeable and compassionate. When we have had serious problems, they have been fabulous. Besides the medical care, they go the extra mile to call us at home after a procedure to make sure our dog is all right,
We have been to other vets in different states through the years, but this is the best of all. The facility is top notch, staff amazing and we trust them with out Misty !!!!
