Sebring Animal Hospital

Lilian Oliva

Published: December 19, 2008

My family and I would like to extend our heartfelt gratitude to Sebring Animal Hospital. One of our dogs, Little Girl, hurt her leg to the point where she ripped through her Achilles tendon. Dr. Larry Jernigan and all the ladies at his office were so kind and understanding with our situation, that they took Little Girl under their wings and watched over her and nursed her for 38 days.
Dr. Larry was so concerned that he decided to keep her there with them so that they could tend to the wound and take care of her dressing so she would heal properly without the risk of infection or more damage.
We picked up Little Girl on a Saturday, but unfortunately her tendon did not adhere like we were praying. She lost the use of her hind leg, but she is doing good with her other three.
Again, we can't thank Dr. Larry and his staff enough for the genuine concern that they have shown us. They always have our dogs' best interest at heart and their only concern is our pets' well being. We could sure use a lot more doctors like Dr. Larry, be them vets or MDs. A merry Christmas and a happy New Year to you all.
