The ladies at the front desk are very professional and super helpful. They answer the phone promptly and work with you to ensure your pet gets seen in a reasonable time. They offer same day visits, which is very rare these days. We have never waited more than 10 minutes to see md even on same day appointments. The techs are knowledgeable, caring, and super patient with the pets and their owners . Coco has been seen by several doctors, and they all have been wonderful. They take their time with Coco and answer all questions. Prices are reasonable.We also use their grooming services. We love them. The last grooming appointment was with Oscar. He did a terrific job working with such an anxious dog.We moved a year ago from Miami. We used to take Coco to a reknown hospital there . They are good, but Orchid Springs is a lot better !!!Sonia B.Sonia B. ★★★★★ Would like to start off saying i love this vet, best in WH IMO. experiences PRIOR to my August 8th one were 5 star bc of the professional,welcoming and calming energy for my exciteable dog.depspite his in-progress training for impulse control and excitability, they still understood how to handle him.****UPDATE 2023 )*******Returned for vet 2023 and was great. Jessica th tech was extremely warm, loving and amazing energy that put him at ease. Dr Farrah sweet and gentle.awesome!(Initial post experience 2022)However, aug 8th wasnt alike. Awaiting fecal and heartworm results. Didn't bring poop sample,was going to next day but wasn't asked to and was charged, therefore,IF they tried to get one at checkup with wand I wasn't told beforehand and that definitely would have further exacerbated his behavior bc he despises his behind getting touched...unpleased with how tech Shay handled situation. Unprofessional, tech was inclined to diagnose him as reactive: As pro you should know how to handle your own energy with various pet temperaments,esp when dog is NOT reactive or aggressive per their trainer. He is just sensitive to new environments,rough tone and handling.they removed him from room. I understand why they thought to bc his high energy may have come from my presence but in past that wasn't ever the case..(shrug?) I wasn't even sure if they actually did the usual annual basic exam I'm used to (tummy check,paws,skin coat, ears,teeth,etc) .only heard reprimanding just outside the door and my pup came back with bloodshot red eyes, prob from fighting unpleasant experience. afterwards i wasnt asked if I had questions or concerns etc. Just felt careless and rushed this time around.I appreciate the owner response. I trust a solution will be found. Ideally once you get Marco's input on behavioral adjustments we can work on for longterm solution vs just more meds. Noted to request Dr. Vargas or Hood as experience with Hood was pleasant in past, and being welcomed by Dr. Vargas on his first puppy visit though not having her yet, felt right,and by reviews and word of mouth. Thank you for responding!chrristine P.chrristine P. ★★★★★ Always a great experience here! Have been going for 7 years. Consistent and caring.Jonny S.Jonny S. ★★★★★ What can I say about Orchid Springs Animal Hospital, and the truly awesome team there? Our little rescue pup - is our world...and I would not entrust his care to anyone else!!!He attends Doggy Daycare almost everyday - and the amazing team there took the time to get to know him, coaxing him out of his shell and gently teaching him to play with other dogs, Something I never thought would happen!He used to be terrified to the point of paralysis when going to a groomer...not so with Tiffany and the team here...a relief and a joy - when this has to be a monthly event!And I could never say enough about the outstanding veterinary care he receives from Dr. Vargas (and now from Dr. Moisa too) ...these ladies and their whole team of techs are the most caring dedicated any pet owner could wish for!If you love your pet - do yourself a favor and seek out Orchid Springs Animal Hospital!Amanda-Jo N.Amanda-Jo N. ★★★★★ Very friendly staff. They took great care of my dog while I was away several times. He especially loved Felicia, who was so kind to him.Brian P.Brian P. ★★★★★ I believe in the blend of Eastern and Western medicine and Dr. Vargas is the best😻 She helped my sweet Peaches live a good life two 1/2 years longer than he should have with his diagnosis. I will always be grateful.Mary Jane S.Mary Jane S. ★★★★★ Shortly after moving to Florida, our cat Tudor developed Pancreatitis, and we would have lost him if not for Dr. V and her team. As if that were not enough, we quickly learned that he was allergic to just about everything that grows here. It took a ton of time, and effort to find a solution to his overgrooming, scratching and sneezing. He needed consistent care from a doctor who knew his history, and we got that with Dr. V and her team. He's doing great, and actually enjoys going to the Vet and seeing her! It's like he knows she is his guardian angel. I would not trust anyone but this team to take care of him.Jay R.Jay R. ★★★★★ The best of care, the most amazing staff, all of latest and greatest information and equipment, they are simply the only place we will ever bring our fur baby Milo. They love him as much as we do!LeannaLeanna ★★★★★ Doc Vargas and the entire staff at Orchid Springs are the most knowledgeable and caring animal experts around. You can feel the love they have for all animals and always go the extra mile. Want your special friend to feel and be treated like family? Take them here...from standard medical procedures to alternative treatments to boarding and grooming....The Best!....and they are always volunteering their time and expertise. A huge asset to our community!!Dan S.Dan S. ★★★★★ Great!Richard & Susan F.Richard & Susan F. ★★★★★ My baby Sylvie had swallowed something she certainly shouldn’t have. After going from previous vet, to urgent vet, to getting in the car to take her to an ER, Orchid Springs was able to call me back and had an appointment within the time frame I was comfortable with waiting with how Sylvie was acting and feeling. They calmed me down after hearing some pretty terrible scenarios of what could be happening internally with the foreign object and scheduled her for a surgery. The morning of, Sylvie was acting so much more like herself and Dr. V and her assistant was able to see the object was close to coming out on its own and we did not even have to have surgery. A miracle in of itself, but the staff here from the first call to end of appointment I felt heard, relieved, and taken care of. I don’t wish to have to return with an emergency any time soon, but can’t wait to see them next time for ~routine~ check ups. Thank you for taking care of us!Kelli J.Kelli J. ★★★★★ Are greyhound Lilly was suddenly having mobility issues and Orchid Springs got her in the same day. Dr. Farrar was very kind and direct, The Vet techs we're super compassionate and helped are shy girl back into our car..Mark V.Mark V. ★★★★★ This place has taken care of my family since we moved to the area last year and it has been a year for our dogs. They are very nice.Ryan C.Ryan C. ★★★★★ Excellent vetsCrystal W.Crystal W. ★★★★★ Love this vet! They saw me right away for an urgent visit. Within 3 days we were in for my pet's surgery. They take Carecredit as well!Miriam P.Miriam P. ★★★★★ Caring and professional.Bill L.Bill L. ★★★★★ Good foodDiana B.Diana B. ★★★★★ Very caring and knowledgeable staff. Friendly and helpful.Cynthia M.Cynthia M. ★★★★★ My pocketbook is a little lighter, but my pup was in the best hands. This is an animal hospital with all the bells and whistles. They are upfront. Invoices are itemized. They are prompt and helpful. When you need critical care...this is it.Tia S.Tia S. ★★★★★ Thank you Dr Moisa and Katie for taking care of my wife and I.

Loved the big waiting area space.Dr Moisa and Katie were excellent, kudos to them. They both gave great attention to our pet and educated us in a nice professional manner.

I changed from my local vet to them when I adopted a senior cat through them. I was so impressed, I decided to stay with them & take my 2nd cat to them. They have a wonderful facility that includes a bone-shaped pool for water-loving canines & boarding. The waiting area is wide & open enough for even the most rambunctious 4-leggers. It is exceptionally clean, the staff is welcoming. The vets (just a side note - all female) are compassionate & knowledgeble. I would take my cats to any one of them for treatment.
