We have been taking our pets to Brevard Veterinary Hospital for many years; back when Dr. John Eden was there, and more recently when Dr. Kim Jennings took over the hospital. In 2010, we got a pure black Chihuahua puppy we named Betsy. From the beginning, Dr. Jennings took care of Betsy, did her spaying, vaccinations, and a knee surgery resulting from some "over-zealous" play with Betsys two cat housemates. Betsy never showed any fear or dislike of going to the hospital and was always happy to see Dr.Jennings, Dr. Headrick, and all the veterinary technicians. She loved them all and seemed to know they loved her too. In late March 2014, Betsy began acting strangely; not eating, throwing up water, and just showing signs of something being wrong. We took her to the hospital where she was given tests and x-rays which showed nothing definite. We were given some medications to try and told to come back right away if Betsy did not improve. She did not improve and it was decided that Dr. Headrick would do stomach surgery to find the source of the problem. Tissue samples were taken and sent to the lab. After the surgery, Dr. Jennings took Betsy to her own home overnight several times so Betsy could be kept on an IV and watched over. We both found so much comfort in knowing that Betsy was with someone who loved her and could give her the care she needed. One week after the surgery, the lab results came back. Betsy had lymphosarcoma. That was a rough day not only for us, but for the doctors and crew at the hospital. Chemotherapy was seriously considered. Dr. Jennings and Dr. Headrick both did research and consulted with other veterinary professionals to determine the viability of different treatments. Betsy was a tiny little girl. She had just turned four years old and weighed less than five pounds. We all decided, after one final blood test showed a lot of severe problems, Betsy had been through enough. It was not an easy decision, but we all loved her enough to do the right thing. Dr. Jennings, Dr. Headrick, Sam, Melissa, Robin, Andi, Amanda, Chelse, and Hailey are all very caring professionals. They gave Betsy the best care possible and helped us through a very difficult time. They have all earned a special spot in our hearts. Jane Murdock Pat Peck

We have been taking Misty and Nikki (both toy Pomeranians) to Brevard Vet since we moved to Cocoa a few years ago. Having two seniors; one 13 the other 8 1/2 years of age, we visit the clinic on a regular basis for medical attention on a collapsed trachea and thyroid issues. Let me add, we adopted Misty, our 13 year old, 2 years ago. Her owner, also a senior, could no longer afford the medical expenses or tolerate the constant "duck calling" that accompanies a collapsed trachea and was making arrangements to send her to Rainbow Bridge". That sweet little girl had way too much love in her bright little eyes to not enjoy a better quality of life. As we desperately seeked out advice and help, Dr Jennings and her team came highly recommended by not one but 3 people. We scheduled an appointment and here we are, two years later and both girls are active and enjoying a wonderful Florida life...boating, swimming. Retirement life is pretty darn comfortable and we thank Dr Jeannings and her team for their high level of professionalism and compassion.

I have only one rating and that is the top - 5 stars. My girl Mika has had some very serious health issues and the Brevard Veterinary Hospital has always been there for both of us, with help and encouragement. I had a couple of questions today and didnt have an appointment and the doctor took time out of her busy schedule to talk with me and answers all my questions and give a little professional love to Mika. I wouldnt go anywhere else. Definitely a 5 in my book.

I have been going to Brevard Vet Hospital since Damian was a puppy. Damian loves Dr. Jennings and her staff. He needed surgery and I felt safe knowing he had the best care. We highly recommend Dr. Jennings to all our friends.
