Comments : My wife Mary and I met Dr Murphy when he began his practice at his current location. We had a wonderful Shih Tzu named Boomer for over 17 years. Dr, Murphy's compassion and skill as a vet made even the difficult moments bearable. There is no doubt in our mind he is skilled, loves working with animals and, genuinely shares the love of each person's pet. We now have rescued a White Persian cat. Of course we would not consider having any practice other than Plantation Animal Hospital take care of Kasper!

Comments : Since bringing my beloved lab Sophie to PAH 5 years ago I have been impressed with the quality of care that she has received. Dr. Murphy took over the care of Sophie when his former partner left their practice. As much as we loved him, we now love Dr. Murphy as well. He is truly a great vet and cares so much for his patients. Being in the healthcare field myself, I know great Doctors when I see them and Dr. Murphy is one of them. Sophie recently had minor surgery
which Dr. Murphy performed. He always takes the time to discuss Sophie's health and allows me the time to ask him questions. I never feel rushed when I am there. From the staff at the front desk to the staff in the back, I know that Sophie is always in good hands. As a pet owner that is truly a comfort. Thank you all for what you do not only for my Sophie but for all the pets that you take care of. Tammy Papadeas

Comments : Let me just say I have six rescue dogs with many medical issues, about 25 cats and two birds and Plantation has been taking great care of everyone from the very first day we moved to Matthews when my Dalmatian had her first seizure (some timing, huh?) I work in health care so I know good physicians when I see them; those who take the time to discuss their patients issues, answer any and all questions and any alternative treatments that are available. This is the fifth state that I've lived in and the best vets I've ever dealt with. And don't even get me going with the staff, the most fun gals that I would hang out with any time anywhere!!

Comments : My pugs Gizmo(8) and Emma(4) are patients of Dr. Murphy and always have been. A few months ago both of my dogs had check-up's and dental cleanings. Emma went to see Dr. Murphy and Gizmo went to another place near my house. I thought I would try it out since it is so close. Bad mistake! In no way were they horrible nor did they give "bad care" but once you go to Plantation no place will ever compare! They treat your animals with such love and they really do care! If my doctor's office treated me that way I would not know what to do with myself =) My babies will never go elsewhere.

Comments : I just wanted to say Plantation Animal Hospital
took care of our old guy "Jake" for years.But
as he was in his golden years, and his health started to decline, we saw Dr. Reed, who was wonderful and gentle, and just had a genuine caring personality about him. When the day came to make the hardest decision of our families lives, to let Jake go to a much better place,
our whole family came to the clinic, our two
children, and my husband and myself, and of
course we were all crying and saying our good byes to our beloved pet, and you wouldn't believe what this....Dr.Reed did... he got on the floor, with all of us, petted our old guy,
and was just like us, showed so much compassion, it was unbelievable.He explained everything so the kids would understand but was not to be scary, what was going to happen to our sweet old Jake. He showed more compassion than most people we will ever know.It made the procedure or transition so so much better.
It made all the difference in the world, for him
to be so sweet and humble at a very bad time in our lives. In fact, we still talk about him,
and he great compassion for us.Thank you so much
for turning a bad situation into a pleasant one.
Thank you Dr.Reed

Comments : Dr. Murphy and his staff took care of my family's Shih Tzu, Boomer, for many years - basically snatching him from the jaws of death when another animal clinic in Matthews misdiagnosed him. When his time finally came years later, Dr. Murphy was wonderful, kind and compassionate to my family and went above and beyond what anyone could anticipate. Once I was on my own and got my own pet, my cat, Gracie, I took her to Plantation Animal Hospital and Dr. Murphy took care of her as if she were his own pet, taking the time to comfort a scared kitten and talk to her before examining her. Everyone from the reception desk, to the vet techs to the veterinarians are friendly and professional and I wouldn't trust anyone else to take care of my "child". Plantation Animal Hospital is the BEST!!!
