Gandy Animal Hospital

Dr. Heinen treated my Rusty for Congestive Heart Failure with amazing results, only to fail him later on. When my regular vet requested copies of the records from the last visit, it took five days, ten phone calls and signing a Nondisclosure Agreement for them to receive them. Awful lot of hoops to jump through if everything was done to protocol. more

Thank you all so much for everything you did for Kenzo! He is back to running around the yard and chasing those squirrels and you can barely see his incisions. You are my new vet from here on out. more

Been coming to this vet for a long time. Friendly folks, great doctors and staff. Prices are very reasonable. more

Worst place ever only wants to profit off of my dying animal instead of helping my family through a difficult time!!!! more

We have been taking our pets here for the past 6 years and we board our pets there often at their lovley facility. I have tried many different vets over the years and this is the absolute best. The prices are reasonable & the staff is attentive, knowledgeable and thorough. The only complaint I do have is they are not open longer on Saturdays, past 2pm, which makes it harder when one has to work full time and has a hard time taking time off work. Otherwise, I highly recommend this vet. Everyone there is great. more

We moved to Tampa in February from San Diego about 2 years ago. We have 2 dogs and a cat. Our neighbor recommended Gandy Animal Hospital and we are very thankful. What a beautiful facility, clean and very modern. They were able to get us in on short notice, did a complete workup on everyone and really took the time to make us comfortable. The staff upfront is awesome! Very personable and educated and they actually listen to us when we have questions! We saw Dr. Heinen and liked him very much. He seemed to like what he does and didn’t make us feel rushed, even though the place was very busy. Our female dog is a bit shy but had no problems being checked out. When we took our cat, he peed inside the carrier and they took him back and washed him and the carrier. Now THAT is customer service. I really felt like they are committed to the health of my animals without trying to make money off me. We saw the size of this place and thought right away, “this is going to be expensive.” But ironically, their pricing was not only fair, especially having moved here from California, but I price shopped quite a bit and they were much more affordable than all the other places I called and no cutting corners. THAT WAS AWESOME FOR US! Everything they suggested sounded reasonable, and they even discouraged me from some medicines they didn't think the cat needed. I'm so glad we found a good and honest vet. My pets are my babies! Keep up the great work Gandy Animal Hospital and you have us for as long as we are here! more

This team of veterinary health professionals are the BEST I have ever had the pleasure to deal with and by far one of the best in Tampa. They have recently helped us care for our very sick 11 year old min pin and my 7 year old persian. I am forever indebted to everyone at this animal hospital. My pets can continue to lead wonderful and happy lives because of what I know now that my previous vet never even took the time to explain to me. Now my new rescue addition comes to visit Dr. Heinen and he always takes the time to go over everything and make me aware of any and all options that are available. I never feel pushed or tricked into having things done. And my dogs’ loves the staff there. My dog loves going to this vet. This is a team of well informed veterinary professionals who are always aware of the new cutting edge procedures and programs but also are seasoned and confident in their diagnostic abilities. They provide you with estimates and when I began early on with them and called around, they always seemed very competitive and even after procedures were done, they never forgot about us. Their customer service and sincere caring is bar none! They called several times to check up on my pets and even the doctor called a few times. I have never walked out of there feeling like I didn’t understand what was going on with my pets. I also have boarded my pets there many times and I appreciate the sense of security I have when leaving them for a stay when I go out of town. I know they are great hands when I leave them for boarding. The staff is always friendly and attentive more

What I like most about this vet is that they don't try to force a bunch of unnecessary stuff on you like lots of other places do. They don't push the latest doggie toothpaste or try to talk you into new brands of flea treatment or supplements your pet doesn't really need. Same holds true for surgical procedures. You go in and they treat your pet for what's ailing them, simple as that. And they actually do it right! They also have very reasonable prices. Every time I've ever compared quotes between Gandy and other vets, they come out the less expensive, everything from vaccines, teeth cleanings and flea stuff. And in south tampa, everything seems a bit more expensive. This is a major plus for me, as I have multiple pets and have to be as financially frugal as possible. I usually see Dr. Gladnick but sometimes I see Dr. Heinen, and I know that my pets are in good hands with them. They know their stuff, have nice bedside manners, nice and clean building, and you can tell that they have your pet's best interests in mind. more

Brought our two cats here a few weeks ago, after transferring from another vet and we couldn’t be happier. My younger cat just needed shots, but my older cat, Mittens just wasn’t acting right and I noticed her losing weight and she was always sleeping. The previous vet was so focused on running tests for things we didn’t even mention. He was insisting it was something with her thyroid or her liver. He refused to listen to what we were trying to explain to him about our cat’s personality, eating habits and overall health. We saw no improvement with the medications he put my cat on and the cat was getting worse, and we were looking for a new vet and found Gandy Animal. Dr. Gladnick was straight forward and thorough. She examined the cat, gave us a solid second opinion and we felt confident in her abilities. It wound up having nothing to do with her thyroid or liver, it was something in her mouth and that’s why she wasn’t eating and that’s why she was losing weight and sleepy all the time. We followed through with her suggested treatment plan and Mittens did wonderful and is back to her old self. The prices were fair, but the quality of care is excellent and the staff is really amazing. They were friendly, knowledgeable and continued to educate us about what we were dealing with. Within our first visit we sincerely felt well taken care of and felt that everything was going to be ok. Thank you Dr. Gladnick and staff for the wonderful care and we are definitely going to be moving all our pets there. Nice to see some caring doctors still exist. more

I just wanted to share my surprisingly great experience at this vet. I recently switched over to this vet as my previous vet did not have the facility to care for my sick Chihuahua, LuLu. The assistants were wonderful with her and the doctor, the male, was so understanding and knowledgeable about my Lulu’s condition. Its been a few weeks so far, but everything from the doctors, the staff and the facility were wonderful. I used to have to hunt down my vet to even get a call back and for what services I needed and the quality, it was surprisingly fair and affordable. You guys definitely have me long term if the care stays the same. Thank you for taking care of my Lulu. more

Do not listen to the reviews about this hospital being terrible! That is just not true. Try it out yourself! I was skeptical as well but since the last 5 clinics I went to still could not figure out what was wrong with my kitty, I gave it a shot. The girls at the front desk all were kind and very friendly. I saw both doctors on different occations and felt very comfortable with the care and advice given to me regarding my kitty. Dr. Heinen is amazing! He was the ONLY doctor to figure out not only what was wrong with my cat, but treated her and she is healthy and strong now! He is brilliant! Truely knows what he talking about and can explain it in so you can understand. I had to frequently visit there during this ongoing treatment and EVERY TIME I went, I received the same outstanding service. I have recommended Gandy Animal Hospital to family and friends and will only take my precious baby girl there! No other place can compair. Try it for yourself and make your own decision....I did and I'm so happy that I did!! more

I love this vet. They are so wonderful with the animals! They don't charge you for unnecessary items and for care that isn't needed. The staff is incredible and the veterinarians are bar none the best I've ever encountered. Very clean! Boarding and grooming is available, and they carry Eukanuba brand foods. more
