Many of our staff members have been with us for 20 years or more, and we're proud to bring that unique level of expertise to our area's pets. Because caring for your pet like we would our own isn't our job. It is our calling in life.
Ready to make an appointment? You can do so conveniently online! If your pet is getting low on their medication, don't wait, order a refill from our in-house pharmacy! We'll let you know when the prescription is ready and you can pick it up at our hospital, or we can deliver it to your car from our parking lot!
In 1987, Dr. Jonathan Wald started Central Broward Animal Hospital as a clinic founded on high-quality medicine and caring family values. This model is still the one guiding us today. Our story is one of passion for veterinary medicine, a love for all animals, and compassion for their parents. Dr. Wald conceived a two-part dream back in childhood.
At Central Broward Animal Hospital, we strive to make your life as a pet parent a little easier. We know that taking care of cats and dogs isn't always fun and games-there are a lot of responsibilities but all of them don't have to rest squarely on your shoulders. We're here to help ease the burden by making quality veterinary care accessible, enjoyable, and personalized.

You can definitely find a better local vet than this place. The doctors don't seem very knowledgeable and it feels like they are all on commission because of how pushy they are when it comes to trying to convince you that you need to spend $1000 every time you visit. I've never seen anything like this at other vets so I would not recommend this place.
It doesn't make any sense how they have so many 5-star reviews - must be paid for because there is no way this many people are happy with this place. If you go here watch how much they try to sell you. it's insane! Be careful.

I was in a bind as my vet was out of my dog's prescribed diet. I was going down the google search list calling different offices and was so relieved when I called Central Broward Animal Hospital and they had it available! The customer service I received both times I called was fantastic. Thank you so much!

Horrible experience with this place. I never saw a money minded place, I took my puppy to their place to get checked because he vomited once two days ago and hasn't been eating his food as usual but rest is fine. After checking they wanted to met get everything below. Why would a puppy that's not eating needs to get these things? Fenbendazole -- $72 its a 6 dollars medicine Cerenia injection -- $72 its 20 dollars I understand there's a process for everything, you first diagnose the problem and recommend what's needed appropriately, I personally felt like they want to get everything because they knew that anyone who visits them is not going back and they want to get as much as possible.
I'd be happy if they recommended tests first or fluids, all at once doesn't make sense(why would you recommend dewormer without checking anything). I didn't want to get any service from them because I don't like people who like to make money out of a situation doesn't matter how many years you have been in business it's wrong and I hope you handle things in a better way in the future. Good luck with everything and such a shame

Such a warm, friendly and calming space to bring your pet. Our first visit with Dr. Cici was just lovely. Buffett, our Australian Mountain Doodle felt right at home and so did we. We felt the genuine care and love they have for animals immediately. Going back tomorrow for a follow up visit. So happy to have this place to take our pup too and ever so grateful that it is walking distance from our home. How lucky are we?

My dog was unconscious having seizures. We took her to Central Broward Animal Hospital and they took her inside. They told us she was in contact with a Toad (frog) she was almost dead. But they saved her. They gave her medicine to stop the seizures and told us everything we need to know to be prepared. Then told us to take her to another hospital in Davie. 10 min away from here in Plantation.
This new hospital told us that she looked really bad. That if she wakes up and survive she probably will be blind with brain damage. But she is alive. Last night we went to pick her up. The doctor in this second hospital in Davie told us that because we took her fast to Central Broward Animal Hospital and they stopped the seizures and gave other medications she was alive.
So I went back to Central Broward Animal Hospital to let them know that she is alive and they cried with me and my kids. I am so thankful with the doctor and the staff that I will take my other 3 dogs and my cat to this place. They are the best. They acted immediately without even ask me if I was going to pay. (Other animal hospital asked me before in another emergency if I was going to be able to pay. Based on my answer they proceed).
After the doctor stopped her seizures and stabilized my dog, giving her the medicines she needed it, we were still nervous and worried about my dog, I was surprised that they never mention HOW MUCH.(other places is all about money). My husband went to the front desk and asked them that we have to pay. I can tell by the look in their eyes that they didn't even want us to worried about money at that time.
They were so kind and compassionate not only with my dog but with us. We paid almost nothing. So please let this hospital be the ones that take care of your pets. I have 4 dogs and 1 cat, and this amazing place called CENTRAL BROWARD ANIMAL HOSPITAL will be the only one (that I have trusted) that will take care of my pets.

They've always been there for me and my babies, the doctors are really good and patient and my pets are always welcome and loved when we come here, they actually get excited walking in. It's a bit pricey but yo me it's all worth it. I'm also loving how they have organized themselves around covid without forcing you to leave your pet in a cage for God knows how long like Banfield is doing (which to me is just an excuse to treat them in watever order and without any supervision.no thanks)

Where should I begin? Central Broward Animal Hospital is top notch. Dr. Lezcano cares about my baby as if he's her own. I can't tell you how many times she has come to our rescue. She goes above and beyond and we are so incredibly grateful to have her as our vet. The entire staff here is amazing. From the front desk to the nurses, everyone is friendly, compassionate, and knowledgeable. I will never bring a pet anywhere else but here

I bring all 3 of my dogs here, as well as a stray, neighborhood, declawed cat who got beaten up. The staff are all knowledgeable, helpful, & seem to like their jobs. They really like animals, which is apparent from the moment I walk in the door. I always feel my menagerie is well looked after. I've also used their boarding service, with great results. My dogs came home happy, & healthy.

I've been going to Central Broward animal hospital for close to one year now. They were treating my 10 year old dog Punkin'. He was a former bait dog that had suffered lots of trauma before I rescued him 6 years ago. He recently had lost the use of his hips and legs due to extreme arthritis and it happened rather quickly. The veterinarians and staff did everything they could do to try to help him walk again.
They treated my dog with such compassion and kindness and we're always so gentle to him lifting him and moving him and being sweet to him so that he wouldn't be stressed while going through his tests and treatments. Everyone there has always been so kind and friendly and helpful. They have never turned me away when I have needed to see them and have always called me anytime I needed to talk with them. 2 days ago my dog woke up and he was just "different".
He was in pain and just was not himself anymore. We were scheduled to go in for treatments that day and you don't need an appointment for the treatments so basically they were just working me in but when my situation turned into an emergency even though they were booked with regular clients and surgeries they still told me come straight over so that we can care for your dog. Sadly "Punkin' was just too sick to recover and we all had to say goodbye to him so that he would not suffer any longer.
It was very sad but he was in pain and I loved him too much to see him suffer. Everyone was so compassionate and gentle and kind to me and my dog and everyone comforted us and mourned with me. The situation was a very loving environment instead of a sterile environment. I wasn't alone, my dog wasn't alone and everyone really cared and you could feel the love.
I'm very grateful to the veterinarians and the staff and will never forget the kindness that they showed me and my beloved dog. This animal clinic is top-notch and highly recommended. Never once did I feel like we weren't loved and cared for or that they didn't have the best interest in mind for my dog. We all did everything we could do to save his life and I have a great peace knowing that we did.

We LOVE Central Broward Animal Hospital, the Doctors, Nurses, and Support Staff are amazing. We have two Old English Mastiff puppies who adore Dr. Oms and everyone at CBAH. The puppies get excited each time they go to the vet for an appointment or for boarding. The puppies are well trained but a lot to handle because of their size and young age; I am so thankful to have a nice, clean, safe, fun place to bring them when we are away.
Regarding major services, we had both puppies neutered at CBAH and the procedures went well and follow up care was fantastic. I feel comfortable knowing that if the puppies ever had an emergency, we would be taken care of by the best.
