Greenbriar Animal Hospital

A casual acquaintance recommended Dr. Constanze Goricki at Greenbriar Animal Hospital to care for my cats; after having been to MANY vets in Jax area without finding one to my liking, I wasn't optimistic. Last week, one of my kitties became very acutely ill after a long period of senescent decline. I thought of Dr. Goricki and called Greenbriar. They had an appointment for me within a half-hour and took us in very promptly when we arrived. The staff was wonderful and caring. Dr. Goricki is VERY knowledgeable, layed out all potential treatment options, and offered guidance only when asked. Although there was potential for the animal hospital to make a LOT of money off me (desperate kitty mom), Dr. Goricki said,"Maybe it would be kinder not to put the kitty through all that." Dr. Goricki ended up helping me put my little guy out of his misery. I was very grateful to have wise and gentle assistance at my time of greatest need. I have made an appointment for one of my other cats for medical treatment with Dr. Goricki, and I feel confident she will receive the best of care. Run, don't walk, to this awesome animal hospital! more

We've tried other places and my dog prefers Greenbriar. He's a beagle and kind of high strung. They do something here to make him happy. We've tried Switzerland Animal Hospital and Julington Creek Animal Walk. When he stays here he recovers faster from his separation from us. more

My sister in-law recomended Greenbriar when her brother and I moved into the area. She told me that you will absolutly love these people, and she was right. I have only witnessed care, compasion, and joy out of the entire staff. I have 6 rescue kitties and they take the best care of all of them. I wouldn't take them anywhere else. I tortally trust the fine people working there. Pros: They are the best, and most caring I've seen at any vets office. Cons: none more

I brought my guinea pig in because another vet told me it would be between 500 and 700 dollars to remove a tumor on him and he might have cancer. My husband brought him to the Greenbriar and was going to put him down, and the Vet there disagreed with the diagnosis and asked if he could keep him for a few days and keep an eye on him. Well the tumor fell off during his stay their and it was NOT cancerous ! He did not charge us a dime and even offered to adopt him if we did not want him back!!! Also a lesson learned: ALWAYS get a second opinion! more

I was very unhappy with the service. They perform tests that you don't ask for or agree to and then they expect you to pay for it. They are also not very happy to see your pets. It is very unfortunate they don't get excited to see the animals. Everyone there seems burnt out. Time to retire! more
