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 wanted to bring awareness to this outstanding veterinarian, tech and front office staff. My two mixed breed pups have been seeing Dr. Palm for years but i have a 14 year old with special needs. My 14 year old chihuahua mix - 17 pounds - has a rare disease - Addisons and Dr. Palm diagnosed him and saved his life. My dog requires monthly injections to withstand stress as his body does not produce the hormone needed. Bottom line is i regularly bring my animals in and the staff just treats them so well and accommodates our needs. If you want a trusted and caring vet, highly recommend this family friendly clinic.

COVID conscious, so you have to call when you arrive for your appointment.

A mask is requested to be worn at all times.

Appointment only.

All good and naughty dogs can get treats.

The vets and techs are energetic and helpful, you can even see them smiling through their face masks.

Feels more like a family doctor's, but for pets.

The interior is well appointed, everything is cleaned and sanitized. Since they are meticulous about cleaning up after you, they will be just as meticulous in taking care your pet and you.

Over a decade ago Hiawassee Vet was the closest vet to me when I needed emergency treatment for my beloved Molly. It was then, during that initial visit that I knew I had found a permanent Vet. I've since moved three counties away and without hesitation continue to bring my beloved pets to Dr. Palm for his compassionate care and assistance from his outstanding staff. If you love your pets as much as I love mine, you owe it to them to bring them to Dr. Palm. Hands down, Dr. P is the real deal.

Dr.Palm is reliable, responsive and a very caring doctor. I know when one of my pets has a health issue, Dr. Palm would find the best solution and won't waste time. Saved my male cat, from crystal block, by performing very delicate surgery. Today helped my female cat with upper respiratory infection.The staff is always nice and accommodating. Thank you very much for great service and a piece of mind. Truly appreciate it.

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.

My little lily went here for a little nip and tuck since she turned 7 months old. They took such good car of her, and they said she was such a good girl. The next two weeks we had no problem with her stitches. They even cut her nails for us! Which we appreciate, and we drove all the way from Cocoa to come see them! They did a great job!

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!
