Ocean Animal Hospital, Cape Canaveral FL

My experience with Ocean Animal Hospital has been extremely disappointing and frustrating. After my dog suffered a laceration under his that were stitched by emergency vet clinic.we sought help from ocean animal clinic due to chronic bleeding. Despite our initial hope for a solution, our experience only worsened with each visit.

Upon our first visit, the staff suggested giving my dog anesthesia to investigate the issue further. After the procedure, they claimed the old stitches were coming out and recommended stitching him again, assuring us that this would resolve the bleeding. However, despite their confidence and promises, the bleeding persisted.

Not only did the second round of stitches fail to solve the problem, but it also caused my dog immense pain and anxiety, evident by his incessant whining and crying for days afterward. Despite our concerns, subsequent calls to the clinic were met with dismissive responses, and no effective solutions were offered.

What's more concerning is their apparent focus on generating more revenue, as evidenced by their suggestion for hip check-ups while completely neglecting to address the ongoing bleeding issue. It's incredibly frustrating that we paid $1200 for a procedure that yielded no results and only caused further distress to our pet.

Furthermore, the lack of accountability and follow-through on their promises is deeply concerning. Instead of acknowledging their incompetence and offering compensation or alternative solutions, they continue to push for unnecessary procedures, seemingly oblivious to the suffering they're causing to both the pet and the owners.

In conclusion, my experience with Ocean Animal Hospital has been nothing short of disappointing and disheartening. I would strongly advise against seeking their services, as their priority seems to be profit rather than the well-being of the animals in their care.

Amazing staff and facility! We have had multiple bad experiences with other local veterinary hospitals/clinics in Brevard County. So happy a friend told us about Dr. Gabe! He is so down to earth and listens to your concerns. I never felt rushed and I loved seeing Mittens name on a welcome board. This place feels like family! Our cats finally have a vet we can trust!

By far the best veterinarian ever! Ocean animal hospital has so much love for their animal/ patients. Dr Gabe goes above and beyond. Thank you for providing a trustworthy place for our fur babies. You’re the Best Counting down!

I love this place, we have been bringing our animals here for about 4 years and the doctor and nurses are very sweet and kind. Highly recommend

I think ocean animal hospital is the best kept secret in Brevard County. I have two intimidating German Shepherds that have allergies and the staff there is always anxious to help me get appointments on a moment's notice and Dr Gabe is great, if you need a vet don't pass this place up.

We love this place. We have had a total of 6 pets now under their care over the last 5 yrs. Staff is wonderful. Even follow up w outbound calls for welfare, etc.

Dr. Gabe Young and his talented Vet Technicians and Office Staff were excellent with our senior Maltese! I highly recommend Dr. Young, who is professional, knowledgeable and kind! Clinic is squeaky clean. Kudos!

Grate animal hospital the staff is friendly very helpful the vet realy cares about you and your pets there prices are very good I will continue to bring my dogs there for all there needs thanks.

Dr. Gabriel is a wonderful person who takes good care of our fur babies. He even cried when we had to put our Angel down. Now he is taking the steps to help our baby Samantha. We have been with this practice for many years and I must mention Kat who is an amazing asset to the team. Thank you all.

Everything was exceptional. It was just a bit too pricey for me. But the Doc and staff are very nice and very knowledgeable. The animals are handled with great care.

Highly recommend! They treat your pets like family! Great staff, great Doctor. They make my cat feel so welcome and at ease.
Very caring and compassionate staff.
The only place I will ever bring my pets!

Personalized attention, friendly staff and very knowledgeable Veterinarian who explains everything in detail, I wouldn't trust anyone else with my pets, thank you for taking care of Firulai

Dr. Young is an amazing Vet that takes wonderful care of my dog Leena. He treats her with the best medical care and he always knows what is wrong with her. We are so grateful

Dr Gabe has been our vet since 2020. He and and his staff are caring, professional, and extremely knowledgeable. They provide excellent care for our senior Yorkie and our young Frenchie.

They are very compassionate people. The doctor was amazing. They go all the way to care for your pet. Thank you all, immensely.

The staff show love for your animal as much as you do! I've been to quite a few different vets in my past and this one is by far the greatest. I called in the late morning and was seen the very same day in the afternoon for my puppy. Other than the fantastic service, they're about saving the customers money.

Overall, if you're new to the area like I was, this is a loving veterinarians office that will take care of your pet.

***5 YEAR UPDATE:
My pug has had numerous health issues over the years (allergies, eyes, the list is endless), and my original review still holds true. Dr. Young has taken such great care of my pug over the years that ever since I moved away I still drive 40 minutes just to see him.

If you want someone who is passionate about animals and takes the time to throughly exam your fur baby and discuss treatment options with you, then Ocean Animal Hospital is where you want to go.

Dr Gabe and his staff are amazing! They treat our fur baby as if she were their own…. They’ve always made us feel like family. Best Vet in Brevard!

Friendly staff and fair prices, highly recommend. They don’t take advantage like other animal hospitals I’ve seen and dealt with in the past. They are extremely honest and are all good people that I have came to trust with all of my pets over the years!
