Addison Animal Hospital - Lake City, Florida

Michael Davidson

My family and I have been taking our dogs and cats to Dr. Addison for over 20 years. At first, it was for convenience as I live less than a mile from Addison Animal Hospital. (I believe they are called Compassion Animal Hospital now, don't quote.me on the exact name, but they answer their phones differently and I've noticed some new staff and I overheard them mentioning the change.) Dr. Addison and his team have saved more than a few of my dogs and cats from various situations, snake bites, animal attacks, random illnesses, etc. Most recently, we had a two year old cat, Casper, go missing for almost two weeks. He finally returned home but had been bitten by something very large on his haunch/tail area, he was very thin, and I didn't think he was going to make it. We took him to Dr. Addison, and even with a parking lot full of patients, and quite a few walk-ins (which I was as well) yet somehow they still took care of us quite quickly and the entire time the staff was courteous and polite. The woman at the front desk was answering phone calls, checking in patients, coordinating with her techs and the Veterinarian, and the entire time she was so friendly and courteous. I believe her name was "Sam." Simply awesome. She made my Mom feel better after we dropped Casper off and when we came to pick him up that afternoon just from her demeanor, professionalism, empathy, and, compassion. She was like an air traffic controller, a quarterback, and a psychologist in one. The tech we talked to was also super polite and kind. Dr. Addison came out to talk to us before and after, and he was very informative on the after care of my pet and when we went to leave a tech followed up and made sure we understood the instructions. Casper is at home recuperating and is doing well. I could tell a half dozen more stories from when Zoie poked herself on a barbed wire fence, or when Loki got hit by a car, or when the dog attacked Rocko, each and every time Addison was there for me and my pets. I could never thank him enough for all the care he has given our animals. (Deborah and Kim say thank you as well!!!)

Today I had to put down my beloved Mr. Winston, he was a 14 yr. old Yorkshire Terrier. All his life Dr. Addison was the only Veterinarian to see him. Everyone was so compassionate and kind. They help me through this very difficult time. Dr. Addison has been our Vet for over 20 yrs. I highly recommend him and his staff. Thank You all so much.

My wife and I live in South Carolina and were traveling through on our way to visit family when our beautiful dog needed treatment. Having never met us or our dog before they worked us in to their schedule and were as nice, professional, and caring as they could possibly be. I would highly recommend them to anyone.

Toni Marshall

They were kind, compassionate, timely and very professional. My pup felt very comfortable as did I. I highly recommend and will go back!

Dr. Andy was absolutely wonderful. He was knowledgeable and had a great bedside manner. The front office could be a bit more welcoming, warm, and attentive. We walked in and waited for a while before anyone even looked at us or acknowledged our presence. I felt that was kind of rude.

Our family dog had to get her eyes removed. And Addison Animal hospital was terrific. They listened to our concerns and evaluated Chloe. And acted in a fast and emergent manner. Taking a horrible situation and helping us through the process. Can't thank them enough ?
