REVIEWS & TESTIMONIALS
My family has been bringing our pets to Sarasota Veterinary Center for over 10 years, and we’ve always had wonderful experiences. Dr. Fifarek is thoughtful, knowledgeable, and compassionate. He takes the time to review everything carefully, explain clearly, and make sure we feel supported in every decision.
What I appreciate most is that he looks at the whole picture and always has our pets’ best interests at heart. We’re so grateful for his care and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a veterinarian they can truly trust.

I’ve been taking my dog Missy to Sarasota Veterinary Center for the last four years. I appreciate the cleanliness of the facility and their friendly staff. I also introduce my son and my sister to the office with their dogs. The doctor and the technicians are able to deal with the most difficult dogs with kindness.

We've spent a lot of time there lately. Dr. Culp is wonderful; we followed him from Venice! He helped us with lots of management tips for our Mulligan's partially torn CCL. Once we made the decision for TPLO surgery, we felt confident it was the right next step... and it has been.
We really appreciate that they'll get us in the same day, even when they're busy. They follow up the next day to see how things are going.

The office was well organized and efficient. All employees I came into contact were very polite. The vet tech and the veterinarian I saw both were a wealth of information. They both stayed and answered my list of questions. I was impressed and would definitely recommend.

The clinic's state-of-the-art facilities and advanced medical equipment further showcased their commitment to delivering top-notch care. Thanks to the expertise and dedication of the entire team, Max made a full recovery, and I couldn't be happier with the outcome. I highly recommend ABC Veterinary Clinic to any pet owner seeking exceptional veterinary care delivered with compassion and expertise.
