In the quiet, tree-lined neighborhoods of Pinecrest, our pets are much more than just companions; they are the heart of our homes and the center of our daily lives. At Pinecrest Veterinary Hospital, located at 12125 S Dixie Hwy, we recognize that when you bring your pet through our doors, you are placing a huge amount of trust in us. We don’t take that responsibility lightly. We’ve designed our hospital to be a warm, welcoming space where the high-energy buzz of South Dixie Highway fades away, replaced by a calm environment where your cat or dog can feel at ease. Our mission is to provide the kind of world-class care you’d expect from a top-tier facility, but with the personal, friendly touch of a true neighborhood doctor.


We believe that the best veterinary care happens when there is a strong partnership between the vet and the pet owner. When you sit down with us, we make it a priority to speak in plain, simple language rather than hiding behind medical jargon. Whether we are discussing a routine wellness exam, a tricky skin allergy caused by the Florida humidity, or a more complex surgical procedure, we want you to feel completely informed and comfortable with every step of the process. We take the time to listen to your observations because nobody knows your pet better than you do. By combining your intuition with our medical expertise, we can create a personalized health plan that helps your furry friend thrive at every stage of their life, from their first round of puppy or kitten shots to their senior years.


Being a part of the Pinecrest community for so long, we are deeply familiar with the specific health challenges that pets face in our unique climate. From the year-round threat of heartworm and fleas to the dangers of heatstroke during a mid-day walk, we are here to help you navigate it all. Our hospital is equipped with advanced diagnostic tools and a highly skilled team capable of handling everything from dental cleanings and nutritional counseling to internal medicine and emergency care. We aren't just looking for a quick fix; we are focused on long-term wellness and preventative care that keeps your pet out of the hospital and on the couch or in the backyard where they belong.


We invite you to stop by and see us at 12125 S Dixie Hwy, even if it’s just to get your pet weighed or to pick up some heartworm prevention. You don’t have to wait for an emergency to build a relationship with a veterinary team that truly cares about your family. We love seeing our patients grow and become a familiar part of our own family here at the clinic. Our doors are always open to new neighbors looking for a compassionate, professional, and honest place to care for their pets. We look forward to meeting you and your four-legged companions and showing you why so many Pinecrest families have trusted us with their pets' health for so many years.

Everyone is so compassionate. Dr. Diaz Cruz is fantastic! The vet techs are very loving, knowledgeable and professional. The front desk staff is efficient, effective and always helpful. I have been going to Pinecrest Veterinary Hospital for many years and have always been confident of the care my dogs receive and always satisfied.

Our vet is Ana Cruz-Diaz, she is very thorough in her explanations. She doesn’t rush you, takes her time with you. She is very knowledgeable. She was a great help giving me suggestions regarding my dog’s food, because she wasn’t eating. It was a great help. Thank you! Also I want to mention, her assistant is very loving with my dog. So beautiful to see.

Had a wonderful visit just as always. They listened to my concerns and evaluated my dog to find what might be the causes of the situation. I would never go to another vet. Dr. Diaz-Cruz is a wonderful doctor and a very compassionate and caring person. They always make me feel comfortable and important.

I came here because my senior dog was recently diagnosed with severe glaucoma. The staff was very friendly. Dr. Karpinski was Excellent. She was very thorough and honest about the prognosis of my dogs eye condition. I must say, I’m very happy with the treatment received at this office. And their prices are very, very reasonable. I live 30 minutes away, but I am considering switching my other two dogs to this vet office.

Dr Robbins is superb. She’s takes care of our Zoe with great understanding and compassion and always goes the extra mile. She is also a very intuitive vet, who thinks outside the box and doesn’t run unnecessary tests. Our Zoe is very medically compromised and Dr Robbins has helprd us manage her complex issues brilliantly. We’re so grateful.

My Yorkie has eye problems. Dr.Karpenski is the best at diagnosing and treating diseases of the eye. If your pet has any problem with their eyes, I highly recommend Dr. Karpenski. She’s the best!
