This is the first time ever owning guinea pigs and I was in quick need for a vet that cared for exotic pets. Before traveling over an hour to some other practices, I took the chance on Airport Veterinary Center and I am so happy I did! I was able to get an appointment in less than a week and they took great care of my piggy who needed help with his teeth. Dr. Weiss and his team were thorough and answered any questions that I had. For those with guinea pigs, this is a great place for all of your needs.

We've been coming here several years now with our dog. The staff and Dr Weiss has been amazing and really care about our furry friends. I recommend this place! Edit (2021) Dr Weiss recently removed a MASSIVE tumor on my 11 year old dog's head. Dr Weiss did an amazing job, he did such a clean job that all that's left is a cool scar! My dog is happy and healthy again!

I got an appointment within 1 week, and was happy to be in office seeing smiling faces. In Tuckers 9 years we have seen many vets, across various states with different forms of practice. Stephanie and Dr. Weiss respected my handling insight, TJ's limits, and previous field knowledge, which allowed for a positive, smooth visit. I felt that Dr. Weiss truly listened to my problem list and assessed each one with ease, I have no doubt in my mind they will be capable of any and all care TJ may need. Looking forward to the follow up visit.
