Curlew Animal Hospital
Palm Harbor, Florida
General Info
Pets who visit Curlew Animal Hospital in Palm Harbor receive treatment based on their daily activity patterns starting with morning energy followed by midday cautious alertness and ending with evening relaxation which reflects the real-life routines of Florida households. The clinic meticulously observes entry posture alongside sound sensitivity and examines pacing patterns with focal behavior. Examiners investigate ears and teeth when animals show curiosity and perform abdominal or joint checks during calm periods. Owners need to report intricate behavioral changes such as their pets' resting spots within the house and meal approach patterns along with any increased time spent near doors or soft surfaces. Curlew Animal Hospital provides intricate diagnostic services alongside age-specific physical examinations and preventative health screenings while offering gastrointestinal stabilization and endocrine treatments together with surgical preparation and postoperative reflective practices. Appointments may be full-service or phased across two shorter visits depending on pet temperament or caregiver schedule. Staff members prioritize medical tasks based on pets' behavioral readiness instead of checklists by adapting their work to animals' pacing and touch thresholds. Families obtain reports aligned with their pet’s daily patterns to understand which symptoms appear at specific times and which behaviors follow stimulation while learning how to monitor rebalancing. An intricate system of text check-ins combined with pacing charts and adaptable timelines ensures follow-up care remains connected to the pet's emotional state rather than solely clinical standards. Curlew Animal Hospital delivers genuine animal healthcare to Palm Harbor families and all Floridians which matches pets' natural living patterns stretching and settling into real homes at authentic times of day.

Dr. Smith and staff are wonderful. A few months ago I rescued a stray kitty. I was able to get him crated on a Saturday morning when he came around for some food. I called my current vet that I use for my dog and they couldn't fit me in until 5 pm, (it's 8 am and I didn't want to leave this kitty in a crate crying and under so much stress for 8 hours), so I looked up local vets on Google and Curlew Animal Hospital was open. I called explained my situation and they were able to squeeze him in for an exam. While Pretty Boy was being taken care of by his staff after Dr. Smith checked him over, he explained all of his findings in detail and what his staff were doing to my new kitty (flea bath, ear medication, rabies shot, nail trim, etc.). I am so grateful to the doctor and his staff for the wonderful care they gave to my new kitty. They are now my only veterinary care providers!

Dr Smith has been our Vet since we moved here to Florida, 24 years ago. He is a very compassionate, knowledgeable and thorough Dr when it comes to caring for your fur babies. His staff are also very caring and great with our dashchunds, which are probably as much their family as ours. I know our file must be the thickest one there!! Lol. ❤️🐾❤️🐾

WOW. Just Wow! But that's not enough. I felt like I was leaving the office with a different dog- a healthier, spunkier dog. And reasonably priced! Same day visit, exam, meds, etc for about $250!
I'm dog-sitting and there is no greater fear when doing this than when the dog seems off. I just felt there was something wrong with Peaches and the owner's vet was out of the office. I called 2 other vets and they couldn't take her today. I called Curlew Animal Hospital and they said they had a full schedule, but then said they could squeeze her in at 2:45. What a relief.
Turns out she had a fever, her tooth is decaying and possibly causing serious problems. The staff was amazing and caring and took time with me to explain things and called the owners who happened to be flying home tonight. Dr. Smith spent time with them on the phone and withe me in the examination room explaining in detail what was happening and treatment options.
Ashley and Ola talked me through things and made it a pleasant visit. I'm so sorry I didn't get the other Tech's name-she was great, too.
I have to say, I LOVE my vet. But if I get a new dog, I'm seriously considering going here. Great facility and staff and doctor!

We moved from NYC with a very allergic pit bull to the Tampa area and after many different Vet’s who were unable to fix his problems , we were referred to Dr. Smith by a neighbor . Honestly, we didn’t think he would really be able to resolve my babies issues but we thought it was worth a shot so, we made an appointment. We were so glad we did, his staff is amazing , these girls are so kind and caring and it wasn’t just a show. Our dog had frequent miles with our old Vet in NYC , I mean it wasn’t from the lack of effort we really tried to get his allergies under control but, without success until we came here under Dr. John Smith’s care! We are so happy that our dogs allergies are under control and we owe it all to Curlew Animal Hospital! Brodi is one happy dog now, Thank you Dr. Smith!!

Dr. Smith is the most compassionate Vet I have ever had for my pets. It’s not just important for him to make the 4 legged member of your family well again, he makes it his practice to explain what’s going on with your fur baby, and it’s important to him to educate his clients on situations that we’ve not had to deal with prior. We can’t thank you enough for all you have done for us. Thank you Dr Smith for taking such great care of my 4 legged family. Your staff is absolutely wonderful to.

We have taken our cats there for years and now that we've moved 40 minutes away to Tampa, we still drive back to Palm Harbor for Dr. Smith and his staff. You won't find anyone that will care for your animals and help you budget more. When our kitty Tyson was staying there for observation and unfortunately had to be put down, Dr. Smith opened up for us on a Sunday night so we could end his suffering instead of prolonging it. You can definitely feel comfortable bringing your animals here. They are in good hands!

I have been going to this place for over about three years. I'm a 7 year old rescue from the SPCA in Largo. My new parents soon realized that I had an itch problem among other things, but wanted me with all my problems, because I'm so cute and smart. The staff at this place have been fantastic to me. Dr Smith is an excellent vet, and along with his caring staff, have helped me get over my issues.

Thanks to Dr Smith and all of the staff at this special Veterinary clinic. We feel so fortunate to have been led to this amazing group of people about 5 years ago. Not to be dramatic, but I said a prayer at that time for guidance in finding the right place for our cat that was ill. We have become regulars over the years. We have had to say goodbye to our two cats after many years of being blessed by their presence in our lives. We are confident that they received the highest quality of care when they were ill. The entire staff here are warm and wonderful people who go way beyond what you might expect at the veterinary clinic. I won't mention names in case I forget anyone. Dr Smith is one of a kind . We always felt informed, certainly never hurried and we were supported in making tough decisions. We look forward to introducing our newest pet to this group of caring professionals. Thanks for your many kind gestures.

We have another Brittany, Gracie and we continue to go to Curlew Animal Hospital because of the caring, compassion and friendliness for our 4 legged family member and us two legged worry warts!! Thanks for all you do!!!

I have been taking my dog here for several years and every visit is very pleasant and informative. The staff is very well educated, helpful, and nice. They always do what's best for the patient and help owners who are on a budget. Dr. Smith is always willing to explain and answer any question. I would definitely recommend to anyone. Fantastic place!

We have taken our cats there for years and now that we've moved 40 minutes away to Tampa, we still drive back to Palm Harbor for Dr. Smith and his staff. You won't find anyone that will care for your animals and help you budget more. When our kitty Tyson was staying there for observation and unfortunately had to be put down, Dr. Smith opened up for us on a Sunday night so we could end his suffering instead of prolonging it. You can definitely feel comfortable bringing your animals here. They are in good hands!

One word...AWESOME! The staff is wonderful, as is Dr Smith. He takes the time to explain everything. He and his staff make you feel that your pet is the only one that they are concerned with.

I have been going to this place for over about three years. I'm a 7 year old rescue from the SPCA in Largo. My new parents soon realized that I had an itch problem among other things, but wanted me with all my problems, because I'm so cute and smart. The staff at this place have been fantastic to me. Dr Smith is an excellent vet, and along with his caring staff, have helped me get over my issues. I am extremely grateful to this animal hospital, and plan to have my parents continue to take me there. Thank you, Elsie Saben. PS. Mom and dad, Pat and John

Thanks to Dr Smith and all of the staff at this special Veterinary clinic. We feel so fortunate to have been led to this amazing group of people about 5 years ago. Not to be dramatic, but I said a prayer at that time for guidance in finding the right place for our cat that was ill. We have become regulars over the years. We have had to say goodbye to our two cats after many years of being blessed by their presence in our lives. We are confident that they received the highest quality of care when they were ill. The entire staff here are warm and wonderful people who go way beyond what you might expect at the veterinary clinic. I won't mention names in case I forget anyone. Dr Smith is one of a kind . We always felt informed, certainly never hurried and we were supported in making tough decisions. We look forward to introducing our newest pet to this group of caring professionals. Thanks for your many kind gestures.

Dr. Smith, Angie and all the staff are amazing. They always give our "kids" the best care. Through the good times and bad, they have always shown the highest standard of care, taking time with their patients, and are a class act.
