Verandah Pet Hospital tm

Douglas S. Piper, DVM

Nothing But The Truth - Aug 16, 2011
My best friend/roommate's dog out of nowhere became unresponsive after convulsing/stiffening of her limbs. We feared we were losing her so we rushed her to the Verandah Animal Hospital mainly because it was closest to the house and she needed help immediately but also because I'd heard so many excellent recommendations. Fortunately, at the same time we walked through the door she happened to start breathing normally and was once again responsive but Dr. Piper did a thorough exam and took our account of what happened seriously. He did not see for himself what happened but he didn't seem as though he thought we were exaggerrating which was refreshing. Dr. Piper and his staff were very empathetic. They were professional but not cold. He took the time to talk to us, to answer our questions thoroughly. My best friend and I will definitely be taking our fur-babies to the Verandah Pet Hospital from now on. Its such a relief to have someone competent and trustworthy in the event of an emergency or any other cause for a visit.

Without a doubt...best Veterinary Clinic in Southwest Florida by Tony Vetter
06/20/2011 Since 1979, I have dealt with Dr. Piper in his care of both Police K-9's professionally and now my personal animals. There is no doubt that he and his staff rate A+ many times over.The care provided over the years of my animals is bypassed by none and the care and compassion given, no words can describe.We all hope that many more years of service by Dr. Piper and his Staff remain. The world of Veterinary Medicine gets no finer...

Dr. Piper has been practicing in Fort Myers for 30 years and offers the same excellent care at Verandah Pet Hospital as when he was owner of Piper's Riverdale Animal Clinic.

Best Vet in Lee County by Barxley  
01/04/2011 Recently I became disabled and unable to care for my 3 dogs. Thanks to the Verandah Pet Hospital's kennel and professional staff, I was able to board my dogs. I knew they were safe, happy and healthy. I wouldn't go anywhere else! They have an outside run, which isn't available at many places. They offer full services including baths. The staff is exceptional and offer years of experience and lots of love. They give a darn.

Dr. Piper Saved My Cats' Life! by christinedunham

12/11/2010 My cat, Spooky, recently suffered from a sudden blockage in his urinary tract from bladder stones. After being twice misdiagnosed by the Emergency Vet Clinic on Collier Avenue, Dr. Piper took action immediately to save Spooky's life and performed emergency catheterization and surgery. Within several days, Spooky was back to his regular, happy and loving self. I am a "snowbird" from Ohio and I can't tell you how glad I am that I found Dr. Piper at Verandah Pet Hospital. His facility is top notch and his staff are professional and loving. Five stars!

You will not find anywhere better by lil rock's mumma

10/26/2010 Dr. Piper and his staff have been putting forth such an amazing effort in order to save our puppy. They are kind and understanding and very great with animals. They explain everything and take out the time to answer any and all questions. They offer excellent pet advice and treatment along with compassion that is so rare these days. They treat your pet as they should: part of the family. I would recommend them to anyone who has pets they love. I wouldn't take mine anywhere else. I am so grateful for what they do and how well they have worked with us to make our little guy healthy again.

The best experience I've ever had at a vet clinic by animal caregiver

10/12/2010 Dr. Piper's staff were phenomenal. Reception had no problem squeezing me in for an emergency visit. All facilities were clean. They were very kind and thorough. Dr. Piper was knowledgeable, courteous, gentle, and caring. He took the extra time to make sure that my dog would be cared for appropriately. I love my animals dearly and it was refreshing to have such outstanding care.

Devoted to pet - Posted by lindamintz248 on 05/17/2010
Dr. Piper and his staff are the greatest vets in Fort Myers. Dr. Piper has dedicated his life to serving his pet patients and does it without question. When Dr. Piper sold his clinig (Piper's Riverdale Animal Clinic) and was not practicing at the clinic, we had no choice but seek a vet elsewhere. What a joke that was!!! Our miniature schnauzer was being treated by another vet in town who could not determine what the dog's problem was and really wasn't treating him for much of anything. The dog continued to go down hill quickly. Thank goodness Dr. Piper returned to his previous clinic and had reopened. My husband took the dog to him to be "put down" because he was so sick. Dr. Piper said "NO". Let me run a couple of tests on him and see what I find. It didn't take very long and the dog was back on his feet and continues to do wonderfully. A couple of weeks ago my chihuahua became very sick on a Monday morning before I went to work. I took him into Dr. Piper's hospital when they opened. He spent 4 days w/Dr. Piper and he is on the mend now. He would have died it if hadn't been for Dr. Piper and his great staff. They are all so caring and dedicated "animal" people. You won't find a better vet and staff.

As a result of Dr. Piper's dedication, our dog has made it thru the ordeal without any problems.This is NOT an isolated case, as Dr. Piper has taken care of our pets for the previous fifteen years before he sold his clinic. We are glad he is back practicing!
