I came here about a year ago. The doctor on staff was knowledgeable but not very compassionate to my animal. They nickle and dimed me for absolutely everything. Convinced me to buy products I didn't need. Not to mention their mark up on her meds was ridiculous. I walked out of there with a $400 bill and the feeling that I had got taken for a ride. I was not a happy camper. Fast forward to today. I had to take my cat in for roughly the same issue. This time I went to The Humane Society. They did a lot more for her than Vetria. They didn't try to sell me stuff I didn't need and her meds for much more affordable. My bill today was $170 that included a shot and 9 months of her meds Well below half of what I paid at Vetria. I was shocked at the price. I even asked him if they had everything rang up correctly, as I was expecting it to be much more. I wouldn't not recommend Vetria. But I would suggest looking into other options first. That is unless you enjoy paying 'Gucci' prices for the same, if not less care. Read Less

Dr. Hugh’s is “The Best” ! Intelligent, kind, compassionate and effectively applies humor to ease both human and pet typical emotional stress related to care coordination / multi systemic disease management control. Rarely do I give reviews for anyone. My ongoing diverse 38 years in human health as a Helicopter Trauma RN to Executive Leadership provides an enhanced level of discernment. 15 years ago, and over 10 vets later whom all mis-diagnosed my dog licking his paws as fungal / Florida grass allergy, was in fact correctly diagnosed as Markedly Advanced Lyme disease from a tick bite while on a camping / boating vacation in Georgia. With Dr. Hugh’s expert treatment plan, my dog’s life was extended providing many more years of health and pleasure. This man operates at a truly genius level and Is extremely generous. We all love our furry family members and so does “Dr. Jim” ! Read Less

My dog was very ill and couldn’t walk. I went to various pet hospitals (including blue pearl hospital) and they couldn’t help my dog and misdiagnosed her medical conditions. I was referred to Vetria and within 5 minutes Dr. Hughes diagnosed my frenchie and knew right away her medical issues. Finally a vet with experience that was able to pin point her medical issues. He did acupuncture on her and she came out of the hospital walking and feeling much better. This is our new Vet. Read Less

*BEWARE* *MONEY HUNGRY* I was referred here as a cheap alternative due to my primary vet not being available. Though they had a friendly office environment, when I was able to go back and actually have the examination done, the doctor was pushing out possible reasons as to why my cat could be sick. Due to the cat being the family cat, I wasn't fully aware of the cats age at the time. I was under the assumption the age was 10. After trying to be told to get the X-ray ($150) over the blood test ($186) because "if we can't find anything on the x-ray, we won't have to do blood" (Why on Earth would I choose the X-ray first ,which is $150 itself, instead of going straight to the blood???) I chose to to only get the blood test done. I called a family member to update them on the story. I was corrected and told the age of the cat was 17 and I informed the staff, after already choosing the $186 blood test. They came back in a few minutes later and I was told, "The other doctor overrode the doctor you were seeing and said due to her age, we have to do ALL tests" which is $533 dollars. Which is absolutely batshit crazy. I informed them after being there for two and half hours that we were going to pass and they tried to give us the paper with the amounts THREE times before I had to be sassy with them. There is no way in Hell. I was able to get into our primary (The Animal Coalition of Tampa) due to a cancellation the next day and walked out of there with only spending $188 ($188 Included: blood test, exam, urinalysis, injection, special diet food, antibiotics) ** (OUR CAT ONLY ENDED HAVING A DAMN UTI) Read Less

Oh my gosh!! Are we talking about same place I go to? The people and "staff" who left these terrible reviews obviously dont know Dr. Jims heart. Sure the buildings old but its only a building..... Whats important is WHO is caring for your pet. BTW.... They have done lots of improvements to inside of building. Sure he went thru terrble divorce. But most of us have been through that ourselves. Exes dont play fair and leave many BROKE and starting over from nothing. I can tell you that Dr. Jim is NOT all about money because I do cat rescue and he is very generous with his time and makes things affordable out of the goodness of his heart. Staff has told me he is incredibly caring and comes in each day greeting, comforting and talking to all the animals. Not to mention HE saved one of my rescue kittens from a leg amputation by doing STEM CELL THERAPY. There are no other vets in the area that do this and any other vet would have amputated. This cat is now an adult and has his leg thanks to Dr. Jim. He also trests cats with Leukemia!! Other vets euthanize. Treatment works on about 80% of cats. He does lots of this for low cost for rescues. We are all human. Give Dr. Jim a break. I am a legit rescue.....Not a family member or friend. My name is Meg Wilcox ...... Cat Rescue:) Read Less

I had to bring my dog in recently because of an emergency and Humane Society didn't have space for her to be seen same day. Dr Jim and his staff were so nice and updated me on my dogs well being every step of the way. My dog is now fixed up and well thanks to Vetria. I would definitely recommend yall to anyone who is looking. Thanks again! Read Less

Place looks nice and on the phone the woman was nice. Looks like a smaller vet but very nice on the inside. However I waited 15 minutes to be helped before I left. No one was at the front desk even though I had an appointment. No excuse for that. Read Less

Wow he is so knowledgeable I just left the office he asked a million questions and was so thorough he didn't run any tests without my agreement and the staff went above and beyond to make me feel comforted during my already difficult time. I would recommend to anyone looking for a truly compassionate Vet with 30 years experienceRead Less

Dr. Jim is a genius and it is easy to see he does this because he loves animals. He is patient, caring and gentle with the pets and always makes sure you understand what he is doing and why. The prices are excellent for the quality of care you receive. The staff is wonderful with the animals. As long as Dr. Jim is a vet I will take my 5 rescue cats, 2 dogs and bird to him and no one else.Read Less

The best! the vet instantly knew what to do for our new kitten who developed a virus and looked extremely sickly. Offered us a "kitten package" and the charge was amazingly low. After a bad experince at another vet office in town, they advised us in the right direction for treatment and didnt try to charge us for every small thing. Truly have the pets best interest at heart and wont send you out the door with a hole in your wallet, or tourture treatment for your pets. Will be coming here for all of our kittens care!Read Less
