Mc Gregor Boulevard Veterinary: Jones Lura DVM

McGregor Vet is one of a kind. I've been a client for at least 15 years. Dr Laura and Dr Courtney are incredible veterinarians that care about their patients and pet parents. The entire staff (extra nod to Belinda ) is friendly, kind and always willing to find you an appointment for those urgent matters. These doctors take the time to educate the pet parents and no stone goes unturned to find answers; that includes acupuncture that worked like a dream for my boy Max. I trust them 100% and the way they care for their patients is priceless.

We found an abandoned kitten with health issues. The kitten is doing so well now and in great care. Dr. Jones was very positive and professional, and we are happy to have a great veterinarian, being new to Ft. Myers. Thank you to all the staff at McGregor Animal clinic!

I understand that this is a business, but prioritizing money over what's best for the animals is unacceptable. I've been a loyal customer here since moving to the area, but I've always had reservations about the vets themselves. Dr. Butts shows care for the animals, but she clearly plays favorites. If your pet isn't one of them, she rushes through appointments and lacks bedside manner. Despite this, I might have continued here if it weren't for our recent visit with Dr. Jones, which was my last straw. I'm very anxious about vet visits because Scooby, my dog of nearly ten years and best friend, was 11 1/2 years old. I was honest with Dr. Jones about his symptoms--excessive drinking and panting, along with his small liver he has had issues his whole life--and asked her to look into it. Instead, she dismissed it as unrelated and insisted on testing for Cushings, brushing off my concerns and even telling me to relax, saying all dogs eventually die. She performed a blood test, confirming a thyroid issue but still insisted on the expensive Cushings test. She handled Scooby roughly, causing him to react fearfully, which was distressing since he's usually calm for a dog during shots. Four weeks later, we had to say good bye due to liver failure. How could a vet miss such a critical diagnosis? Liver failure doesn't develop overnight. She continued to push for more tests, ignoring Scooby's actual condition, which Fetch Veterinary confirmed Cushings isn't something she should have even brought up due to other issues we told her. It became clear why she insisted on expensive tests--it wasn't about his health but about inflating my bill. While it was Scooby's time, it's disheartening that the vet who owns this practice overlooked his liver issues and focused on costly tests. Animals should always come first. I would have paid any amount to save Scooby, and it's appalling that she missed something so crucial. Other pet owners have faced similar issues here, where they have pushed unnecessary tests even when it's clear the pet's time has come. I regret not trusting my instincts and seeking care elsewhere. Even the $500 bill and the front desk staff praising their affordability should have been a red flag. Despite this, I commend the kindness of the front desk staff--they are truly wonderful people. It's a shame the vets don't emulate their compassion.

Always compassionate, caring and friendly. Willing to be helpful to work with me and my schedule to take the best care of my furbaby Gracie

Davy Crockett (Boykin Spaniel) loved Dr. Laura + staff at his first visit yesterday! The office is new and clean, the staff is kind and efficient, and we received thorough instructions to take home with us at his appointment. We loved McGregor Boulevard Vet and we will be back!
