My family and I are more than pleased with Dr. Hefter and his team. He is so responsive, caring and gentle and always made us feel at ease. Our dog loved seeing him. Dr. Hefter always went above and beyond and we cannot recommend him enough! Thank you!

I am so grateful to Dr. Hefter. I was unable to get my rescued cat into a carrier and he desperately needed vet care. Dr. Hefter was so gentle, calm and professional with my very skittish cat. I highly recommend him!! He’s great!

We are long time clients of Dr. Hefter, and all four of our dogs are under his care. He saved the life of our rescue pit at 8 weeks old...with almost nonexistent scarring from surgery. He is professional, honest, and cares for animals like his own. We will never use another Vet as long as we are in south Florida. He has our business no matter what.
