Airport Veterinary Clinic
The two concepts that govern our veterinary clinic are the practice of high quality veterinary medicine and a friendly, caring service for our patients and their owners. We treat your pets as if they were our own. We are a full service clinic offering preventative medical treatment and consultation, physical exams, surgical procedures, dentistry, radiology, laboratory analysis and therapeutic laser.

As a further service to our clients, pet supplies, boarding, and bathing services are available. Payment is expected at the time services are rendered. We accept cash, personal checks, VISA, MasterCard, Discover, American Express, and Care Credit. We make every effort to make sure all fees are fair and reasonable, and you are encouraged to discuss charges before services are rendered.
Services
As a service to our clients, boarding facilities and bathing for dogs and cats are available. All boarding reservations must be scheduled through our reception desk. To insure that all dogs are clean smelling and flea free when they go home, we strongly recommend all dogs boarding for 2 or more days to have a bath.
Our very own Dr. Kelly Haeusler is a participating veterinarian of the Morris Animal Foundation, a nonprofit organization that invests in science to advance animal health. The Foundation is a global leader in funding scientific studies for companion animals, horses and wildlife.

They recently accepted 3000 dogs to be apart of their research projects and although applications are now closed, we still recommend you become acquainted with their work.The research they are doing will help animal health in many different areas and could benefit your animals in the future. Therapeutic laser therapy is a surgery free, drug free, noninvasive treatment to REDUCE pain, inflammation and SPEED healing.

I highly recommend Airport Vet Clinic and Dr. Ratcliff. She and her staff have always been so accommodating for us and our Josie Gayle! Dr. Ratcliff always answers my wild questions and takes time to explain things to us about our girl. If you need a vet in the Destin area, AVC is the one!

I will never set foot in this place again, after 20 years of spending money here. They are all about the profit now. Very sad!!!

I specifically made an appointment for a new adopted puppy to check issues with her eyes and ears. The owner of the vet only checked the ears even after telling her the puppies eyes needed to be checked several times and told her there was green and yellow mucus coming from them. Her response was oh it’s just allergies. Really???
So after an appointment that should have been pretty quick but I ended up spending more than an hour in the room and $75 later with no in depth eye check done. We now have 4 dogs with the same eye infection. When I called to explain the situation I was told they could

I just wanted to say that I started using Airport Veterinary probably around 7 years ago when we moved here from up north. I have a Cocker Spaniel who has chronic ear issues and allergies. So I thought with our work schedules it just might be best to find a veterinarian closer to home.Those of you that live around Destin area know traffic especially in the summer can be a nightmare to get anywhere. It truly was becoming a hassle going back and forth to Destin so I transferred to another Veterinarian. Wrong!! I am so Thankful they welcome us back with no questions asked . We won’t won’t change

The team at Airport truly care. I had a lot of great recommendations when we moved here to go to them. Unfortunately because of COVID they were maxed out, but when we had an emergency with one of our babies, they took us in without question. We have since been able to establish them as our primary care and just love everyone.

They are the best !! Dr Kelly and her staff are helping our 17 year old Jack Russell Mickey continue to have a quality of life that was uncertain 18 months ago. They all love their jobs and helping our fur babies enjoy a healthy lifestyle.
Thankful we have you in Destin.

Chopper loves Dr. Lyon and everyone at Airport vet. The ladies at the front desk are so helpful and always make him feel welcomed and special. He actually enjoys his visits there and wants everyone to know that he feels safe and well taken care of after his appointments.
