Beach St Johns Animal Hospital

It simply DOES NOT get any better than Dr. Andrew Lawless and his AMAZING team!!! I have taken all of my pets here for over 20 years, and Dr. Lawless is my favorite veterinarian ever. Highly recommended!

Dr. Lawless and his staff are phenomenal. We first brought our bengal cat here when he was a kitten and Dr. Lawless diagnosed a heart condition and immediately developed a treatment plan to include periodic EKGs and atenenol medication. Because of his early diagnosis, our fur-baby is healthy and expected to have the same longevity as if he didn't have the condition. We also bring our other fur-baby cat here. The staff are always professional and polite, and Dr. Lawless really takes the time to discuss how the appointment went and address any questions or concerns we have.

One of our backyard chickens found herself egg bound. Not only does this vet see chickens, they saw our Gertie girl the same day, saving her life. The staff is extremely kind and empathetic and were just as concerned for our girl as we were. Incredibly grateful and highly recommend.

They require you provide your DL and SSN to treat your pet under the premise it protects you and them from fraud. I don't see any reason why they need that personal info, and I believe it actually would put me at more risk for fraud to have my SSN out there unnecessarily, so I cancelled my appt to find a vet whose values more align with my own. Also, be prepared to wear a mask every day of the year as the main vet said his wife had covid before. I'm not insensitive to those with long covid (if that's the case) but masks have long officially been deemed unhelpful in stopping the spread of covid, so it does seem a bit peculiar. Too much overreach for me to have them take care of my dog. If you're okay with the info and masks, sure, go for it.

Dr. Andrew Lawless is a phenomenal veterinarian. He genuinely cares about each pet he sees, and does everything in his power to help them. My wife and I have been going to his practice for over 12 years. He is very knowledgeable and patiently answers all your questions. We wouldn't trust our fur-babies lives with anyone else. He understands our important our pets are to us and treats them with the same loving care as he would his own.

Dr Lawless and his staff are very caring and passionate. They have taken excellent care of our 2 pets (a 3 lb. chihuahua and a boxer). My boxer woke up one day having seizures and Dr Lawless was very thorough in his exam and was available at all times for questions. Unfortunately my girl had a brain tumor and we couldn't save her :( but Dr Lawless and his staff did everything possible and kept my girl comfortable. I am extremely thankful for them. And hope to see them for many years to come with our little Chihuahua.
