This is the only vet that was able to find a solution my pug's allergies and treat them correctly I am thrilled with having a dog living pain free, no more itching and scratching and licking. I would highly recommend them to anyone! Read Less

I am new to the area and was looking for a vet, I passed by their offices on several occasions and quickly decided to follow up with them.  One of the primary things I noticed was the military discount on the signage.  I got home and looked up their website and it is amazing providing virtual tours of the many areas of the facility.I decided to follow up with a visit and was warmly greeted and quickly offered a tour of the facility and it is very clean and well organised.  `I took my pet in for his first visit and they greeted him by name as he entered the door.  We were quickly seen and Willie was provided a bowl of water prior to the exam.  The exam was very efficient and through and we promptly received all of our medications, detailed instructions and a follow up appointment.I highly recommend this vet as they really care about your pet.

We were new to the area and in search of the best Veterinarian for our then, 13 year old Cocker Spaniel, Kacie. When we walked into Martin Downs Animal Hospital, we knew our search was over. From the reception (you are greeted with 2 beautiful smiles, so willing to help) to the check out, it was a very smooth and good experience. Their appointments run on schedule, the facility is organized, neat and clean. Their technicians are through, gentle and caring. Then, there is Dr. Waters....her knowledge, compassion and ability to diagnose and treat the problem is incredible. She takes the time to explain everything in terms we could understand, we never feel rushed. She was able to figure out and treat problems that Kacie has had for years that no other Dr. had been able to solve. Kacie is almost 16 and we will continue to trust Dr. Waters with her care 100%. We are so glad to have found MDAH. Read Less

unbelievable service...our Rottie loves going to the vet (go figure)!). Our prior Rottie was so well cared for with his cancer...he did not survive, but the transition was seamless. Our new girl Rottie loves to go there...the staff are excellent, humorous, caring...wonderful care. Read Less

Dr. Poderski SAVED MY BOY! I am so thankful to Dr Poderski for helping me thru this most stressful and difficult time. For months my 12 yr old Australian Shepard (Nicholas) has been sick with loss of appetite, vomiting, diarrhea and losing weight. Thanks to the help and dedication of Dr Poderski and the Martin Downs Animal Hospital staff they discovered that My Nicholas had a huge liver tumor. With Dr Poderski's expert skills and compassion he successfully removed the entire tumor and saved my boys life. He even showed me the tumor and sent me a live video of ALL the Surgery he performed. Wow! From the day after the surgery my Nicholas has been pain free and full of LIFE & STAMINA! Two weeks has passed and he has gained 6lbs! He is eating normal, bowel movements normal and playing like a 1yr old. I know in my heart he has many more years to live and stay by my side. Thank You Dr Poderski and all the Staff of the Martin Downs Animal Hospital! Debbie Hopkins, PSL, FL Read Less

Sassy, my 14 year old Golden, just had her teeth cleaned and came out of it with flying colors!!!! Appreciate Dr's. Poderski and Waters so much for their exceptional care and professionalism all these years!!!!! Love my pups so much! Read Less

I always have such a great experience at Martin Downs. The front desk and techs are always friendly and treat my pets like family. Dr. Poderski and Dr. Waters are both compassionate doctors and always help me understand what is going on with my pets. I would recommend them to anyone, and hope more people take advantage of what Martin Downs Animal Hospital has to offer.Read Less

Dr. Poderski saved our kitty-cat's life. She had two massive tumors in her digestive tract and both were located at critical transitional junctures. She also had two enlarged lymph nodes. Our family member had lymphoma. Dr. Poderski was able to remove the lymph nodes as well as the intestinal tumors. He was able to successfully reattach her intestines. He showed us photographs from her surgical procedure, and I was most highly impressed with the "beauty" of his surgical work; any medical textbook publisher would have been proud to have these photos. Technical knowledge and application are one thing, but Dr. Poderski provided post-surgical care for our kitty that displayed nothing less than profound affection and concern for his patients. We were blessed to have been given another YEAR with our kitty as she is in full remission...and we are always thankful for the people and the service we receive at Martin Downs Animal Hospital. The staff are ALL the type of people we can trust with our pets! (BTW, It might be good for some folks to do their homework as the kennels are monitored and tended by live PEOPLE on the weekends...some of whom live close enough to walk or bike in). Read Less

My family (pets) have been clients of MDAH for over 20 years. One of the few vet hospitals that I feel my pet are treated like family. I've been to other vet clinics and have always felt as if my pockets had to run deep. They seem to want to run every test even if it's not necessary, Not at MDAH. MDAH starts with the basics and only continues with tests or procedures as necessary. I would highly recommend MDAH to anyone needing quality care for their pets. Thanks for caring for my family MDAH.. Read Less

Our family couldn't love this gang any more than we already do. This Mrs/Mr of vets has been our only vet stop since we moved here from downtown Chicago in 2008. Our Frankie, a rescue from the Anti-Cruelty Society in Chicago, loved these people, she died in their care at nearly age 14, barely a month ago. Their staff and techs, who double checked records, boarded, groomed, run the show front the front desk, expelled anal glands and love these jerks are amazing. Dr. Waters-Poderski personally contacted us to walk us through Frankie's end of life while we were traveling. Damn dogs. Our cat, a Treasure Coast Humane Society rescue at 8 weeks, is now a lonesome 6 1/2 year old orange tabby, missing her spooning partner. Because we are either insane* or after all this great care, we want to send the Poderski's on an amazing winter vacation (pics, please!), we adopted the two mangy mutts from the TC Humane Society. Both positive for heartworm. *certifiable The teamwork here is undeniable. Dr. Poderski came to meet us and our two mangy mutts with a printout scenario of how heartworm is treated. A plan. He took the time to explain to us what it entails. He met us with this. This isn't your average flow chart to how a dog will respond to new dry food. Techs insisted on retesting some things. Spot on. Let it be known: we made phone calls while considering adoption to these homely guys: confirming HS diagnosis, prognosis, estimate of treatment, with these veterinarians that we trust.Read Less

Our dog and cats have been coming here for over 6 years. They have received excellent, compassionate care. When we moved back to Florida upon retirement, we made a point of letting them know our pets were members of the family. They already know you are entrusting them with a pet that is very precious to you.The clinic is efficiently run, the facility is clean and every member of the staff is pleasant. We have boarded our pets there, and it's a little embarrassing when they are reluctant to come home! We are happy to have had Dr. Poderski and Dr. Waters and the staff of Martin Downs Animal Hospital to care for our pets. Read Less

Do not trust this place with any of your pets ! I boarded my dogs here 3 times, The first time they did not feed my dogs the food I sent with them, they said there must have been some confusion but they did get fed & they did give me my dogs food back. The second time I boarded my dogs here they came home on medication for a stomach bug that they got while they where there. The third time I came to realize they leave the dogs in the Boarding facility all day long on Sunday's. From 11:00 am to 5:00 pm when pick up is. The place was shut down all lights off all day sunday, not a car in the parking lot, and all of the dogs locked in cages all day long. The Vets are some weird people who jack up your bill constantly, every time I brought my dogs here there was always excessive Lab work that needed to be done and they make you pay for fecal tests as much as they can. Every time my dog went to the vet they wanted to do a fecal exam. Every week I would got some soliciting Email from this place telling me there is some new pill to stop my dogs itching, or come buy some more heart worm medicine, By the way they charge 2x the price of heart worm medication than my last vet.Read Less

The Poderski's and the rest of the amazing crew at Martin Downs Animal Hospital have been caring for our pets for almost 20 years. I don't know what we would have done without them. They have been there to share our joy as our pets entered our lives, and also to console us during our times of loss. Through it all, they have been incredibly knowledgeable and kind. I highly recommend MDAH. There isn't a better place to bring your pets! Read Less

The entire staff, from reception, to the technicians, to the doctors themselves, really care about you as a client, and your animal as a patient. Their care is the best, so you know your pet is getting the best care that is out there. I would definitely recommend them hands down! I had been taking my dogs (and soon to be cats) to Martin Downs Animal Hospital for almost a 8 months now. They do leaps and bounds better than my previous vet did. The doctors would even play with my dogs to get them to be less nervous as if they were their very own, even if my 100 pound German Shepherd gives them a bit of an attitude, which has happened and probably will again, he is a big baby.

We have been taking our three dogs to Martin Downs Animal Hospital since moving here in 2008 for everything. Medical, Day Care, grooming, and boarding. They are by far the most caring and dedicated group we have ever had and are always available for guidance. Really the only choice in the area and we recommend them to all our new neighbors and friends. Read Less
