doc barry is great, no doubt. but, kindness on 30A is equally as great. they are closer too. but, they arent the cheapest. been bringing my boy there for years and they truly care for his wellbeing like no other. i cant say enough about them. but, both are great.

I'm a fan of Dr. Barr at Freeport Pet Clinic. They are our vet of choice. 835-1500

Dr. Barry is nice, Dr. Barr at the Freeport Pet Clinic (just over 331 bridge on hwy. 20) we have had much success with!

Dr. Barr in Freeport. Dr Barry is a good vet, but Dr. Barr is an awesome vet. Just don't go on Thursday, Doc is out of the office on Thursday and Dr. Baxter doesn't like my babies for some reason.

Really? Dr. Baxter has been terrific with all mine (3 dogs and a cat), and my mother's (2 dogs, 2 cats, 2 ferretts).
I would go Freeport Pet Clinic (Dr. Barr) all the way! They (both Barr and Baxter) are wonderful vets who really care about your animals and listen to you when you have concerns. Top notch service and care!

We always use Kindness when we are there. Bullmatiffs have quirks regarding their eyes, and the Vets at Kindness are always spot on...

Agreed. They have been great with my entire menagerie. It is not the fanciest, showiest, newest facility out there, but the vets and the staff are wonderful. They take their time with you, answer questions thoroughly, offer options, their prices are reasonable, and my animals like them (this is a biggie.)

I recommend Freeport Pet Clinic, also - they are really, really good, they are reasonable, and, frankly, the waiting room is always entertaining. I can get my puppy fix every time I take my cats in, there is always someone with at least one puppy in the waiting room that will let me ogle their puppy.

He sure helped my girl walk again. I've been very happy with him. I think you will like him.

We have been using Dr. Breeze on Back Beach Road (Hwy 98) for 10 plus years. She is excellent and has called us at home to check on one of our dogs. Friendly staff. 850-233-7091.

We had an apt. with Dr Barr yesterday and he and the staff are every bit as good as everyone said. Not to mention the price is almost half of what our other vet charged.

Thanks to all the kudos for Dr. Barr! My husband has worked as a vet tech with him for the last 7 years and I know Dr. Barr and his staff are very knowledable and caring for each and every one of their patients and owners.
