I have nothing but good things to say about Dr Tyson and her staff .We have a very large fur family and it seems like someone always needs to be seen. They are very accommodating and make sure that our pets are treated well. Dr Tyson went above and beyond for our boy Ziggy as he battled with cancer for the last year of his life. They were also very kind and compassionate when the time came to say goodbye to him. We have moved up to Pasco county, but still bring our pets to Four Paws - they are well worth the drive. Read Less

I took my two kitties to Four Paws for their annual check up when we moved here. It's clean, the staff are friendly and professional, they listen and they didn't offer unnecessary services, like teeth cleaning for example unless they need it. My last vet told me I needed one of my cats teeth cleaned, this one said his teeth were fine. I wanted a second opinion because you have to put the cat under anesthesia for teeth cleaning and it is hard on them, been there, done that. Now three months later my orange tabby starts peeing outside the litter box and is acting funny. We suspected urine infection by researching online. They listened, assessed and took a urine sample. Turns out he has crystals in his urine from unbalanced pH and they hurt! So no infection but something seriously wrong. Gave me some NSAIDS and prescription cat food. It's only been a couple of days but he's perking up and he peed in the litter box! We go back for a recheck in a few weeks. Great care! Read Less

My husband and I took my dog to an ER Vet because she suddenly couldn't walk. After she was evaluated by the vet we were told it would cost thousands of dollars for them to tell us what was wrong with her. We were given a list of possibilities  all of which were fatal. As we left the ER we were discussing putting out dog down because we refuse to let her suffer. We received a call from Four Paws the next day to follow up and requested we bring her in for another evaluation. Turns out she just has a slipped disc and with a few medications and some physical therapy she will be ok. THANK YOU TO FOUR PAWS FOR SAVING MY CHEY'S LIFE. I won't take my dogs anywhere else.

Very thorough and compassionate people! Found out some very difficult news and was treated with respect and compassion, and I was comfortable to ask difficult questions. While I agree with some reviews to make sure you are looking at the prices, I was given a full break down of everything and explained each item before going forward with anything. After explaining how limited we were on money, I was not made to feel bad about it and was given different options to help my fur baby. Read Less

We had to move away from the area, and I am so sad that we are too far away to continue at Four Paws. One of our pets needed special attention, and I was very nervous about taking him to the vet. I went in first to talk to them to get a feel for how they would treat him, and felt very confident after doing so. We brought in our dog, and everyone from the receptionist to the doctor showed a great deal of patience and caring, and we were able to get everything done for him. We definitely recommend this place. Read Less

I had a great experience at Four Paws! My 75 pound dog is terrified of the vet and needless to say, is quite dramatic once inside the vet. He did not want to let anyone near him, but Dr. Rubinstein and Melissa took great care of him. He had issues where he had to be sedated. Dr. Rubinstein called me himself after the sedation and I received a follow up call from Melissa once the procedure was over, informing that it all went well. I also received two more follow up calls inquiring about my dogs status. I feel that everyone at Four Paws genuinely care about my dogs well being. I recommend for anyone with a pet!! Read Less

When I moved here from Michigan in July, I was sure I'd never find another vet as outstanding as mine back home. I was wrong. From the first simple, routine visit, everyone at Four Paws has been fantastic. Recently my dog had a medical emergency while I was on the phone with the office, and Dr. Smithson was amazing. She kept me as calm as possible, talked me through everything, and facilitated my visit to the nearest emergency vet clinic. She has been amazing with follow up from that incident, and has went above and beyond for the well being of my sweet baby, and for my mental well being. The entire staff is fantastic, and I highly recommend Four Paws to anyone who wants their pets treated as they would treat them at home. Read Less

I don't write many reviews. But after calling Dr. Tyson our vet for a number of years now, I thought it was time to spread the word on just how awesome she and her staff are. I have been seeing her for about 6 years now and she has seen our family through good and bad financial situations along with a frequent flyer Pug with many issues and our potato spud lab with spindly legs and bad knees. Oh and a cat that can't bring herself to pee in the appropriate places. Dr. Tyson clearly knows her medicine and shows a great love for our pets. She also does what she can for different rescues in the area. We have all our confidence and faith in her suggestions for our pets' best health. This week we made the decision to put our pug to sleep due to her many health issues. It was such a difficult decision for me to make. She was my baby before my husband and daughter came into our lives. And anyone who has ever owned a pug knows how childlike they are all the way to their last days. Dr. Tyson and her tech along with their front staff were so kind to our baby and to us. Our pug showed very little nervousness. She couldn't have been treated with more gentle and calming hands. I can't tell you how much that means to me and my husband. We live in Valrico now but as long as she is within driving distance we will go no where else with our pets. We are so grateful to her and her wonderful team! Read Less

It was hard to find a place that would cater to our snake. Lovely staff that personalized every visit! I'm extremely impressed and very happy with the care given. I even receive a follow up call a week later making sure our baby was okay! Great place. Update: my second snake is fasting and instead of trying to make an easy buck by making me come in simply to tell me to wait an extra month, I was given helpful advice over the phone free of charge. They really care about your animals and not just adding unnecessary charges so they can profit! Again, very happy! Read Less

Bottom line, make sure you ask questions about what they will be doing and get prices! After my recent experience I feel very taken advantage of, disappointed, and still shocked. I brought my dog in (second visit) because he was having some bladder issues. He never messes in the house and over a few days did it multiple times. Plus he was chugging water like crazy so we figured, lets go get him looked at. They got me in same day which is great! Quick vitals check and then on to a pee test. The vet was nice but was throwing all kinds of terms out there that I have not idea on what she was saying, ESPECIALLY related to the tests. After the vitals check and pee test it did not seem like anything serious was going on and I thought, "okay maybe they will just say "lets keep an eye on him the next few days to monitor progress"." On to blood testing, which took a long time. It got to the point where we were asked to move out into the lobby so they could use the room still. After about 30 min, I got the feeling we were on the back burner. Testing finally done, results all came back good, time to head out. What makes me nervous at this place, they do not give you any indication of what you are being billed for until it is time to pay. "Today it is going to be $370.00+." I cannot fully blame the staff because I should have apparently asked more questions and MADE SURE I knew what tests were being done because until I saw the breakdown, I had little idea what was going on. Just figured they had our best interest at heart. Alone one of the tests was $137. To sum up, I still do not like that a lot of "well it could bes" translated to multiple tests being done, that I just assumed were routine. Do yourself a favor if you go here, ASK A LOT OF QUESTIONS AND GET A PRICE BREAKDOWN. I will be searching elsewhere next time our guys are due for a vet visit. Read Less

Today (And every month)the techs showed such love and compassion for my old girl. They even trimmed her pads after her nail trim to help her get around easier. I'm so thankful for their staff!

The gift of this office being able to provide top veterinary care that includes acupuncture, laser therapy and herbal remedies is outstanding.

Very thorough and compassionate people! Found out some very difficult news and was treated with respect and compassion, and I was comfortable to ask difficult questions. While I agree with some reviews to make sure you are looking at the prices, I was given a full break down of everything and explained each item before going forward with anything. After explaining how limited we were on money, I was not made to feel bad about it and was given different options to help my fur baby. Read Less

We had to move away from the area, and I am so sad that we are too far away to continue at Four Paws. One of our pets needed special attention, and I was very nervous about taking him to the vet. I went in first to talk to them to get a feel for how they would treat him, and felt very confident after doing so. We brought in our dog, and everyone from the receptionist to the doctor showed a great deal of patience and caring, and we were able to get everything done for him. We definitely recommend this place. Read Less

I had a great experience at Four Paws! My 75 pound dog is terrified of the vet and needless to say, is quite dramatic once inside the vet. He did not want to let anyone near him, but Dr. Rubinstein and Melissa took great care of him. He had issues where he had to be sedated. Dr. Rubinstein called me himself after the sedation and I received a follow up call from Melissa once the procedure was over, informing that it all went well. I also received two more follow up calls inquiring about my dogs status. I feel that everyone at Four Paws genuinely care about my dogs well being. I recommend for anyone with a pet!! Read Less

When I moved here from Michigan in July, I was sure I'd never find another vet as outstanding as mine back home. I was wrong. From the first simple, routine visit, everyone at Four Paws has been fantastic. Recently my dog had a medical emergency while I was on the phone with the office, and Dr. Smithson was amazing. She kept me as calm as possible, talked me through everything, and facilitated my visit to the nearest emergency vet clinic. She has been amazing with follow up from that incident, and has went above and beyond for the well being of my sweet baby, and for my mental well being. The entire staff is fantastic, and I highly recommend Four Paws to anyone who wants their pets treated as they would treat them at home. Read Less

No odor problem like some veterinary hospitals, it is always immaculate and you are greeted with a smile for the ladies at the reception desk. Each person there is kind and caring. Dr. Kim Tyson is my favorite vet although they are all excellent. She is very professional, yet personable. I have a Greyhound and this vet hospital was recommended for Greyhound care.

I don't write many reviews. But after calling Dr. Tyson our vet for a number of years now, I thought it was time to spread the word on just how awesome she and her staff are. I have been seeing her for about 6 years now and she has seen our family through good and bad financial situations along with a frequent flyer Pug with many issues and our potato spud lab with spindly legs and bad knees. Oh and a cat that can't bring herself to pee in the appropriate places. Dr. Tyson clearly knows her medicine and shows a great love for our pets. She also does what she can for different rescues in the area. We have all our confidence and faith in her suggestions for our pets' best health. This week we made the decision to put our pug to sleep due to her many health issues. It was such a difficult decision for me to make. She was my baby before my husband and daughter came into our lives. And anyone who has ever owned a pug knows how childlike they are all the way to their last days. Dr. Tyson and her tech along with their front staff were so kind to our baby and to us. Our pug showed very little nervousness. She couldn't have been treated with more gentle and calming hands. I can't tell you how much that means to me and my husband. We live in Valrico now but as long as she is within driving distance we will go no where else with our pets. We are so grateful to her and her wonderful team! Read Less

I even receive a follow up call a week later making sure our baby was okay! Great place. Update: my second snake is fasting and instead of trying to make an easy buck by making me come in simply to tell me to wait an extra month, I was given helpful advice over the phone free of charge. They really care about your animals and not just adding unnecessary charges so they can profit! Again, very happy! Read Less

Bottom line, make sure you ask questions about what they will be doing and get prices! After my recent experience I feel very taken advantage of, disappointed, and still shocked. I brought my dog in (second visit) because he was having some bladder issues. He never messes in the house and over a few days did it multiple times. Plus he was chugging water like crazy so we figured, lets go get him looked at. They got me in same day which is great! Quick vitals check and then on to a pee test. The vet was nice but was throwing all kinds of terms out there that I have not idea on what she was saying, ESPECIALLY related to the tests. After the vitals check and pee test it did not seem like anything serious was going on and I thought, "okay maybe they will just say "lets keep an eye on him the next few days to monitor progress"." On to blood testing, which took a long time. It got to the point where we were asked to move out into the lobby so they could use the room still. After about 30 min, I got the feeling we were on the back burner. Testing finally done, results all came back good, time to head out. What makes me nervous at this place, they do not give you any indication of what you are being billed for until it is time to pay. "Today it is going to be $370.00+." I cannot fully blame the staff because I should have apparently asked more questions and MADE SURE I knew what tests were being done because until I saw the breakdown, I had little idea what was going on. Just figured they had our best interest at heart. Alone one of the tests was $137. To sum up, I still do not like that a lot of "well it could bes" translated to multiple tests being done, that I just assumed were routine. Do yourself a favor if you go here, ASK A LOT OF QUESTIONS AND GET A PRICE BREAKDOWN. I will be searching elsewhere next time our guys are due for a vet visit. Read Less
