Palm Harbor Pet Hotel

Dr Murphy and his staff were the absolute best, showed so much empathy as we had to put down our little conure. Thank you Dr Murphy for your kindness and the time you spent with us. We won't forget, thank you!

I can't say enough great things about this clinic, the vets and staff. We were in from out of town when our dog got sick. They worked us in at the last minute and got her all healed up! Very compassionate and great communication. If I lived here in Palm Harbor, this is the only clinic I would go to!

I have never been so happy with a veterinarian in my life! I have had many animals and many veterinarians and they are above and beyond the best. I trust them completely. the staff is wonderful and friendly. I feel very confident that my dog is getting the best care possible.

I work for a pet store chain in the area as well as having my own pets. Dr Murphy has been my vet for a while now and because of his knowledge and customer service, my store as well as the rest of the chain in the district now uses his services as well. He sees all kinds of animals-dogs, cats, birds, reptiles and small animals. He knows what hes doing, hes decently priced, personable, not pushy and he tells you straight what's going on with your pet without sugarcoating.

His staff is super nice and he takes every safety precaution seriously which is great during these times. I swear by this vet, he gives 110% with every and any animal that comes through that door. Thank you Dr. Murphy for taking such great care of those babies without a voice!

We began taking our dogs and cats to Dr. Murphy in 2005. He is very knowledgeable and always so caring with our pets. My friends and I refer to him as the "Dog/Cat Whisperer" because he just has a way with animals. Over the years, we have had to say goodbye to some of our fur babies. Dr. Murphy was very kind and sympathetic regarding our loss. My Husband and Son recently took our cat in for her annual visit and they followed CDC rules with no issues. Dr. Murphy even called me instead of my Husband to fill me in because I had to work. Bottom line, we would recommend Dr. Murphy to anyone looking for a veterinarian and we wouldn't take our pets anywhere else.

Dr. Joel Murphy has been my trusted Veterinarian for 10 yrs. I have many exotics and do a lot of rescue as well. His knowledge and compassion for all animals is what we all strive for when choosing care for our beloved pets. This is his passion and his life. He takes his time with each patient and always returns calls. There have been times we needed to be seen right away and they always get us in.

The office is always beautiful and clean. The vet techs are caring and knowledgeable. His facility is state of the art and if you google his credentials it is a very impressive list. I have peace of mind my beloved pets are in the best hands at Animal and Bird Medical Center with Dr. Murphy and his amazing staff. They are part of your family. Trust them with the best.

Only the 100% BEST will do for our four pets - Animal and Bird Medical Center is it! Dr. Murphy, Carol, Toby & team have the experience and knowledge I trust. From my baby cat to my 18year old pup, they keep my wagging kiddos healthy and happy. Highly recommend without hesitation! *onsite testing, safe dental procedures, and surgical expertise are what brought us to Animal & Bird Medical Center and just a few of the reasons we them!

Dr. Murphy has always been very thorough with all my animals I send him. He goes above and beyond with care, kindness and compassion for all types of animals. His clinical acumen and in-depth knowledge of exotic birds is of the highest level and his own research to back it. He can help with almost any issues I have with any of my rare birds. I am very blessed to have him in my arsenals of medical professionals for all my animals.

I never write reviews but once again this place deserves it. I have been bringing my dog Draco to this office for routing check ups, vaccinations and allergy issues and have never once had a bad experience. I called Wednesday of last week when my roommate got home and called me and said there was vomit everywhere and Draco is not being himself. I immediately called Dr. Murphy's office and they said even though they were closing in 20 minutes, the Dr would hang out to see him.

Unfortunately I was over an hour away so they advised me to bring him first thing in the morning but if I felt he couldn't wait to bring him to an overnight ER which I did. They did x rays and saw something in Draco stomach. He stayed overnight and they kept him comfortable till 8 am the next morning when I picked him up and brought him to Dr. Murphy. Dr Murphy himself called me within an hour and said whatever Draco has swallowed is in his intestines. Dr. Murphy said he would have his staff re-schedule some appointments and re arrange his day to perform Draco's emergency surgery. Draco did excellent in surgery and was home recovering the next day! Thank you Dr. Murphy and staff for saving Draco's life!

I met Dr. Murphy last November when my beloved Abby was diagnosed with cancer. Dr. Murphy and his staff aided Abby to a peaceful and dignified departure. He also spent upwards of 20+ minutes just talking to my daughter and I to make sure we were okay. Because of his compassion and empathy, I returned today with my husband and two puppies that my family has adopted.

Once again, Dr. Murphy spent time with us discussing our new pups and educating us on their needs. All of his staff was wonderful! I am so excited to have found his office. I look forward to introducing our three cats to him as well!
