Dr. Palm has cared for our pets for 20+ years. He will thoroughly explain everything to you so that you can make the best decisions for your pet. His staff and assistants are awesome and will take good care of your dog or cat. Most staff members have worked there for many years, so you will get to know them and be comfortable when you come for appointments. We love Hiawassee Veterinary Clinic!

This has got to be the friendliest and most compassionate vet in all of Orlando! We were fostering a cat for a local rescue group. We realized that the foster (Tutu) wasn't feeling well, as she wasn't eating and her eyes were cloudy. Traditionally, we go to a low-cost animal vet but because of the pandemic the closest appointment we could get would be 3 1/2 weeks! We called Hiawassee Vet, as they had really good reviews online. They were able to see us the next day of our phone call. Very gracious, passionate, and caring vet and vet techs. They were upfront with us on what they thought we should do, if they were in our shoes, and were able to give Tutu some vitals and medicine that turned her around into a new kitty! 100% recommend this vet. Yes, it may be a drive from Downtown Orlando, but TOTALLY worth it.

I have been using Hiawassee Veterinary Clinic for a few years now, and I have never had a bad experience with them. The staff is always friendly and extremely helpful. Denise is always quick with responding to emails, and wonderfully helpful. Dr. Palm is great! He always makes sure I understand what is going on with my pet. He is just as friendly as everyone else, and will answer any question you have. I highly recommend this veterinary clinic.

This morning I had my first appointment at the Hiawassee veterinary clinic. I was very impressed with Dr Palm. He was very caring and compassionate with my 13-year-old dog, besides being professional and clearly knowledgeable with Addie’s situation. From my first call yesterday afternoon to set up an appointment through the vet techs coming in to administer injections etc. to the check out with V front desk staff, thank you I have to say everything was five star! There was absolutely nothing I could say that was less than a perfect visit! Considering I moved into this area a short time ago and just picked a name because they were in close proximity to where I live, I certainly hit the jackpot!

The care my feline Brownie I received at Hiawassee Veterinary Clinic was truly amazing. I called them at 8am to see if they were able to see my pet for a visit due to our recent visit at the emergency clinic over the weekend. I didn’t have an appointment, but they were able to offer me a 10:30am appointment right away. There was no wait time, when I got to the clinic I called them to check in and they were able to see me right away. Dr. Palm and Nicolle was very attentive and knowledgeable. The extensive questions to really gain what was wrong with my pet put me at ease and felt really cared for. It made me less nervous and comfortable especially after just being totally blind sided from being at the Emergency Vet previously. I recommend Hiawassee Veterinary Clinic for your next pet visit/appointment. Everyone on staff, including the front desk was truly amazing. Thank you!

Dr Palm and his staff are always so caring & concerned when I bring one of my dogs in to be seen. We were able to get an appointment quickly & after examining her, Dr Palm explained the treatment and asked that I follow up with him in a few days to let him know how she is doing. The staff is always so friendly, knowledgeable & helpful.

I left a review about a year ago but wanted to leave another because I had another amazing experience today. After my dog suddenly fell ill they were able to get me in within the hour. Dr. Palm was amazing and was so good with my baby. He was honest and strait to point and explained things very throughly. He determined that the likely cause was toxic chemical from a recently treated lawn that my dog may have ingested. He told me about how wonderful my dog was and he even gave me his number since he was going to be out of the office. To check in and ensure all is ok. With squeezing me in last minute as well as all the test they ran (and waiting for results) i was in and out in less than an hour and a half. The ladies at the front desk are always so nice and pleasant and I love how they run the business. You stay in your car until you are ready to be put in a room. It’s very organized and not chaotic with animals running all over. I’m so glad I found this vet a year ago!

We have a feral cat that has been hanging around our backyard since he was about 3 months old. We have cared for him all his life as he is now approximately 4 years old. He showed up one day not using his left hind foot and the problem went on for nearly 6 weeks. We finally managed to trap him and were referred to Dr. Palm at Hiawassee Veterinary Clinic for treatment. They took excellent care of him and neutered him under the TNR program at the same time thanks to a referral from Cats-Can cat rescue.

I cannot thank this office enough for their services. From the receptionist to the vet tech to the vet himself. The entire experience was so far beyond amazing service. You can tell this office cares for pets and it’s not solely about money. This was my first visit with my cat, Kitty. They were able to get him seen and taken care of today. The cost was spot on and I didn’t feel badgered to do anything that was unnecessary. The vet sat down and explained his issue and the purpose of the medications administered. Thank you all so much for your help today!! I will never go to another vet office for any of my fur babies!
