Dr. Alexander and her staff are always so terrific, especially now that the little guy is 16++ and way past everyone's expectations of how long he would live. So grateful to the East Beach Vet team for taking such great care of my little guy who is a tough little dude... but this getting old stuff isn't going to slow him down too much thanks to Dr. A and her team!

Picked this vet based on Yelp reviews and so far I'm impressed! The location has plenty of parking, it's a friendly and open space so that if many pets are waiting there are separate areas for owners to sit. This way if your pet is agitated (or someone else's is) you can kind of steer clear if desired.
The vet tech was very friendly and seemed to really love seeing each dog I saw her take in. She was also to notice an inconsistency in my prior vetrinary paperwork and suggest a missing vaccination as well as fit in my pup for a nail trimming despite me not scheduling it.
The vet is very friendly and frank. I really appreciated him letting me stay in the room for my dogs rabies booster. He also suggested a treatment for my dog I wouldn't have know to ask for (he had bumps I was assuming were going to go away on their own).
On top of a great first visit, they also carry a brand I love and offer it cheaper than online. I am happy to have a good vet nearby. Read Less

This review is long overdue and for that, I apologize. Almost a year and a half ago, I brought my 5 year old cat Jigs in for respiratory distress. Dr. Alexander€s amazing staff immediately took us to a quiet area away from the chaos of late afternoon patient pick-up. Dr. Alexander saw us right away. Unfortunately it was determined Jigs had congestive heart failure and we made the decision to end his suffering. My husband and I held Jigs while Dr. Alexander ushered him to peace. When he was gone, I buried my face in my husband€s chest and cried uncontrollably. I could hear Dr. Alexander crying along with me. Being a vet has got to be incredibly difficult. I will never forget the compassion she showed. She is an amazing clinician and an extraordinary human being. Her staff shares that compassion. I€m sorry I haven€t thanked you sooner, Dr. Alexander. We will never forget you. Read Less

Dr. Drinkwater, along with two amazing techs, Amber & Erin, hands down saved my 3 pound yorkie. I have no doubt he was minutes from death, and they brought him back right before my eyes. Dr. Alexander also found a diagnosis for another of my dogs that had escaped my research as well as a previous vet's look. We are forever grateful for the extra years we got with him because of the diagnosis. We have just recently moved out of state, and will miss you all so much.
