Dental Procedures
Report
Dental disease is the most usual illness encountered in veterinary medicine today and affects 9 out of 10 pets. Unfortunately, it is also the most under treated disease. Pets often go for years with painful gingivitis or even severe tooth root abscesses without noticeable clinical signs to the owner.

Dental disease puts tremendous demands on your pet's organs, weakening the liver, kidney and heart. This additional stress can affect your pet's happiness and shorten life expectancy.
Internal Medicine
Report
Dr. Degen, Village Animal Clinic's Chief of Medicine, is a Board Certified Internal Medicine Specialist and expert in ultrasound, endoscopy and cancer medicine. With endoscopy, she can examine and get samples of the gastrointestinal tract, respiratory system and urogenital tract all without surgery.

We just had our first visit there and were so impressed by how friendly and knowledgeable everyone was! From the scheduling to the check-out, everyone was willing to work with our schedule and it was so smooth. Dr. Wilson and her staff spent a long time with us, really listened and got our pup the medicine she needed!

It was my first visit to Village Animal Clinic. It was for a senior wellness visit for my 15yr old toy poodle. We have been to many vets from Boynton Beach where we lived as well as Phoenix, AZ where we just moved from. I have had my fur baby since she was 6 weeks old. I have to say from the initial phone conversation and appointment, the front desk was professional and welcoming.

The location is inviting, warm and very clean. The technician was incredibly friendly and kind. We saw Dr Wilson who was compassionate and gentle with my baby. She was very calming and informative regarding my concerns. I highly recommend this facility. It was a great experience all round. Absolutely 5 star review!

I’ve been coming to Village animal clinic since 1998. They were in North Palm Beach ,we started with Dr. B . At this location Dr Prior has taken amazing care of Jake the lab . Cody the morky and now Luca my new baby boy . Through the years I’ve come to love everyone @ VAC from Dr. Prior, junior and all the techs and the girls at the front desk. Everyone there genuinely cares about you and and your fur baby. I’m very grateful for all they’ve done for us through the years.

To get a follow-up, unexpected text from the vet the day after my cat's visit (for his annual examination and shots) was very meaningful. Dr. Schwartz was very sweet to reach out and make sure my fur baby was okay. Dr. Schwartz was also very helpful during my appointment and was very caring / gentle with my cat. Looking forward to going back again with my other cat in a few months.

We love Village Animal Clinic. My family has been coming here for years for all of our pets (Shih Tzu, Australian Shepherd, Pit Bull mix breed, and Mini Australian Shepherd). Dr. Prior is professional, compassionate, genuine, and patient. She answered the many questions I had about my new Mini Aussie puppy and made me feel confident we were all caring for him the best we can. Dasia is an absolute gem!

She patiently answered many questions and concerns I had prior to our appointment. She is a kindhearted and genuine human. The entire team at Village Animal Clinic is wonderful. Thank you all for taking such good care of Blue!

We have been taking our dogs here for over a decade for doggie matters large and small. But for Dr. Pryor and her friendly, caring staff there seems to be no "small" when it comes to treating their patients. They listen intently, explain things thoroughly, and diligently follow-up. What great peace-of-mind it is to have a veterinary clinic like this to which we can take our best friends.

I have the upmost confidence in all the Professionals at Village Animal Clinic. My Shih Tzu, Coco had some issues that needed special care and everyone was amazing. They diagnosed his problem, referred us to specialist and he is doing great. They are our primary veterinarian.

My first visit bringing Lucy to see Dr. Prior at Village. I was not happy with my last Vet in Jupiter. My Dog Eye doctor recommended Dr. Prior. She was amazing. Identified, a couple of things with Lucy, that I had missed. She was thorough and attentive. Her assistant Bernard was great and gentle with Lucy. Dr. prior answered all my questions and more.

The appointment process was easy and the front staff was wonderful. The charges were fair and reasonable for all they did with Lucy. Dr Prior and Village will be my vet from now on. Lucy is getting her teeth cleaned in December.

We have been taking our dogs to Village Animal Clinic since we moved to Florida 12 years ago. The staff is professional, kind & caring. The doctors and nurses provide consistently excellent care -- I wouldn't trust my babies to any other clinic. A big shout out to nurse technician Bernard who has been so helpful and wonderful with my dog Phoebe and her "issues." He is truly great at his job and has made a visit to the vet an experience that my dog actually looks forward to! Thank you to the entire staff at VAC.

I love Village Animal Clinic. Dr Prior, Rachel and the rest of the team are the best! My Milo loves both Dr Prior and Rachel. He can be feisty but he is very nice while inside. I always come when Rachel is working. Friendly employees always attentive to my needs with Milo. Thank you for your hard work. I recommend Village Animal Clinic. They are truly the best! They care for their patients.

Village Animal Clinic is the best -- they are compassionate, knowledgable and you can tell they are really committed to caring for our babies. Dr. Prior goes above and beyond. I tried a few different Vets when I moved to FL 4+ years ago, and was frustrated and concerned that my dog would lose her hearing from all the infections she was getting. Dr. Prior saved her hearing without resorting to surgery. She is simply the best!

The staff is wonderful and very caring. Dr. Wilson took excellent care of my cat, Amber. She was great with her and took time with me, especially when Amber was diagnosed with Diabetes. I would highly recommend Village Animal Clinic to anyone looking for the perfect veterinarians and staff for their pets.

Village Animal Clinic has the kindest, most caring staff you could ever ask for! Dr. Prior is amazing; she and the techs and front desk staff were all so professional and reassuring (which is so important! I was very worried about my guy!) after I had to bring my cat in suddenly. She called the next day to check on him, as well. My cats will always be Village patients.

Village Animal Clinic is professional and caring. They have been my primary veterinarian for more than 10 years for my cat and dogs. They always provide access and compassionate care when my pets have a need. I have referred several friends to the highly competent staff
Dr Lapsley always checks on my pets when they have had an illness or procedure. He was so patient when we had to euthanize our 16 year old terrier mix. You don’t find that degree of sincerity in many people

What a wonderful experience I had with my new cat at VAC. The staff was extremely friendly and helpful from the minute I made the appointment on the phone through the entire visit, follow up and picking up his medicines. Clean environment - very comfortable for the pets - not sterile and cold like some others. Junior and Dr. Jennifer were exceptional with their attention to us, explaining everything I asked. I was truly impressed with the entire staff and experience. Thank you so much!

Great Vets, cheerful personnel and work well with our pets. We have 4 cats and have had issues with a couple of them and they were always able to fit me into the schedule to get them looked at.

Great Vets office! Took our sick dog in, and they treated her on the spot. Very reasonable price, they really cared about our dog, and it showed the minute we walked in. She is sleeping comfortably now, and we hope the medication is exactly what she needed!

We LOVE this clinic. I have been going here for 20 years - my parents and in-laws have been going since the late 1960s. The staff and doctors are compassionate and knowledgeable. We and our pets are always warmly greeted. We have referred in so many of our friends to Village - and all of our friends feel the same way. We meet people on the sand bar near Singer Island and many of them go there - and feel the same as we do. Dr Berkenblit and Dr Wilson did emergency surgery on our old black lab - and saved his life - we had almost 3 more wonderful years with him after that.

When we finally did put him down, Dr Wilson came to our house and she cried as much as we did. We board our dogs and our cats there when we are out of town. Our new puppy is going to Doggie Day Care there - she gets some basic training as well as learns how to get along with other dogs - and it wears her out, so she is not crazy when we get home at night.

I have never been to a vet hospital with such caring and compasionate staff. The Doctor was so knowlegable and fixed my pet's problem in just 1 visit. It was the first time that I visited a clinic where I felt comfortable that they knew what they were doing. Facility was clean and had all the equipment to get answers to my pets chronic problems quickly.

I have taken all of my 6 furry babies here because they are the best! From the front desk, to the technicians and DVM. They genuinely care about your little furry ones. I HIGHLY recommend them. They have a great boarding staff as well.

They are wonderful! I wouldn't think of taking my dog to another vet. The personal care and concern along with their expertise is why I go there
