Downtown Pet Hospital

read moreDowntown Pet Hospital opened in March 2005! This hospital is built on the location of the first veterinary clinic in Orlando, which was established in 1937. The practice, originally opened by Dr. W.M. Lynn in 1926 out of his home, was continued by his nephew Dr. D. Lynn at its present location. Initially, Dr. Lynn serviced both small and large animals, with horses and cows being brought up to his door! Please come by our clinic to see this progression in pictures! Downtown Pet Hospital's new veterinarian clinic is state of the art, with 3 examination rooms, in-house CBC and chemistry machine, laser surgery center, therapy laser, digital radiography, dental machine, a stocked pharmacy, as well as boarding facilities.

Regular checkups allow us to establish a baseline in your pet's health and make us aware of any changes that may indicate future problems. We highly recommend bringing them to our hospital for regular exams. Often times health problems that go undetected can become more serious issues when left untreated, so veterinary checkups are important even when your pet appears healthy. Just as annual physical exams are recommended for humans, they are recommended for our pets as well.

X-rays allow us to create images of all the body's organs. In other words, the use of radiology gives us a view of the internal organs in your pet's body that we otherwise could not see. It is an important diagnostic tool that helps veterinarians detect and prevent illness. The use of radiology is safe, and all of our staff are highly trained.

read moreParasites are a medical issue that can have serious consequences if not properly dealt with or prevented. Parasites pose a variety of health issues for our pets, who can be very susceptible to certain parasites depending on age, region, and other factors. These tiny bugs fall into the category of ectoparasites, meaning they live on or just under your pet's skin. If s/he is suffering from an infestation of fleas, you can be fairly confident that those critters are residing in your home and yard as well.

read moreBroken bones are often more challenging for pets because they don't understand where the pain and mobility issues are coming from, and they can often make fractures worse by trying to go about their daily lives. That is why fracture repair is an important procedure that can help your pet live a healthier, happier life. Generally a fracture repair involves the veterinarian moving the fractured piece of bone back into place so that it may heal properly. Sometimes more complicated measures need to be taken for badly broken bones, and anesthetic may be required.

Usually an emergency team consists of at least one veterinarian and several technicians working together to save a pet's life. Emergencies can be things such as snail bait poisoning, hit by car, and chocolate ingestion. If you ever feel that your pet needs emergency treatment do not hesitate to call or come into our hospital immediately. If possible it is best to call before coming in so that a team member can advise you on your particular emergency.
