Animal Clinic of West Lake Worth partners with you to keep your furry family happy & healthy. Our Lake Worth veterinarians have served the community since 2003. Here, we treat pets like family. We understand how important your companion is to you - because they're there for you through the thick and thin of life, with a wagging tail or a happy purr, and unconditional love.
Our goal is to be your partner in taking care of your pet's physical and mental wellbeing, so you can enjoy many happy years together. So, whether your pet needs a checkup with a doctor. Dr. Ted grew up on a horse and dairy farm in Long Island, New York. He attended Cornell University for both undergraduate and vet school.

Services
It's hard to watch our beloved pets get older. Especially if they suffer from arthritis, or from another heath condition that makes it difficult for them to enjoy their favorite activities. And then, when the time comes, we can help you ensure your furry best friend has a peaceful, dignified, loving end of their life.
For that reason, diagnostic tests may be recommended for both well pets, and for pets who are ill. For ill pets, diagnostic tests can help get to the root of the problem more quickly - and thus, get your pet treated and back to normal health faster and more efficiently. The thing about sick pets is, they often have "non-specific" symptoms.
Just like for us humans, sometimes it can feel scary when a loved one has to undergo surgery and anesthesia - and it's understandable that you might worry about your furry family member. Here at Animal Clinic of West Lake Worth, we offer a variety of surgical services, ranging from routine spays and neuters, to special procedures such as abdominal surgeries, mass removals, eye and ear surgeries, and many more.
If you feel your pet may be currently experiencing a medical emergency, please seek veterinary care right away. However, just like for us humans, it's better to be prepared ahead of time, and know exactly where to take your pet should an emergency happen. See our recommendations below. Here at Animal Clinic of West Lake Worth, we can always see your pet during an emergency, at least when we're in the office.
If your furry best friend gets a wound - such as a bite, scrape, cut, or burn - you'll want them to be healed as quickly as possible, and comfortable during the healing process. For more routine wounds - like minor cuts and scrapes, broken toenails, or hot spots, for example - you'll still want to seek care as soon as possible.

I have used this practice for 20 years. Dr J and her staff are caring professionals. Angela, Dani and Katie are amazing with my animals. Recently, my pup had to have surgery. In spite of being short staffed due to COVID, I felt they really cared and were not hurried in giving me and my dog the support we needed. Happy to refer my closest friends to this wonderful practice.

We had an emergency with my sister's dog Jake on a Saturday and they worked him in. Then they worked him in for a stone surgery during this busy holiday season. Dr. Brinkman was very caring and explained everything. And then Dani went way beyond compassionate and caring explanations after the surgery. She took all the time I needed to explain what needed to be done afterwards and was available to answer questions in the following days. She is wonderful.

Been going here for years with my families dogs and now take my own 2 dogs here and the entire staff top to bottom is incredible. I would recommend them over anyone any day of the week! But I’m most pleased with the love and care that Dani gives my dogs, she is absolutely unbelievable at her job and takes pride in her work. I know when Dani is there my dogs are getting some extra love, if there’s a promotion to give shes the one to give it to no doubt about it! Amazing place and amazing staff, 10/10 every time.

My dog has had his surgery, to remove a non cancerous tumor from his paw. Dr. Johnston was terrific! Danni, Angela and Rinata and Dr. brinkman were the absolute best. The empathy they all show was over the top great! They really take the time to answer all your questions (very important to me). Most vets give you the bums rush and take your check before speaking to you (no names mentioned). Most pet owners are super nervous about having anything done to their fur babies. They are like our children. Dealing with the personal care the entire staff shows toward your per, gives me a secure feeling

I accidentally crushed my new Puppy, Dolly at home with my electric recliner. It was devastating to see her. We decided to take her to the nearest vet clinic.
The doctor pronounced her dead. Tender loving care to her and my son and myself.
I cannot fully express my love and appreciation to all at the clinic.
They provided an angel bag for her and delivered her with the name written in the bag. We buried Dolly with all the honors at home. We will never forget her nor all the good people of your clinic.
We thank you from the bottom of our hearts.

We brought in our new puppy to this clinic for his vaccinations and first checkup with our family. Our puppy has a lot of energy and excitement and Candice and Erik was perfectly okay with it and that was what I was worried with the most. They took care of him so efficiently and calmly and I couldn’t have seen it going better than it did. They were super kind and professional and they answered all of our questions. I’m very glad I found this vet for our puppy.

Excellent first visit. My Gabby is a 15 month old Westie and has juvenile diabetes. Dr. Johnson was very knowledgeable and provided excellent information on vaccinating diabetic pets. The vet tech. Jennifer was wonderful with Gabby providing comfort as she received her vaccines. The receptionist came out from behind her desk to meet Gabby and offer a treat. Everyone in this office obviously loves animals but they go a step above to make the pet owners as well as the pets feel secure in the care they provide.

The professional, compassionate, and attentive team at the cozy and quaint Animal Clinic of West Lake Worth is always willing to help when I needed assistance. I can always rely on them to get my fur-baby into the office as quickly as possible. I appreciate the attention and patience they give to their patients and how they explain treatments plans thoroughly to ensure I understand fully. Candice assisted with my pets last visit and was wonderful from start to finish. She took the time to reprint the medication label to include even more specific instructions for my convenience (not by my request

The best animal clinic in Palm Beach. I live 45 min away with another vet 5 min from my house. I’ve been bringing my dog here for 6+ years now and I would not take her anywhere else. Dr. Johnston and Dr.Brinkmann are professional, knowledgeable and caring. Finally a vet that treats your pet like one of their own. Angela and Erik along with the rest of the staff are always so welcoming and take good care of my dog whenever she comes in for her visits. Please stop going to vets that are only in it for the pay check. These are amazing people that actually care about the well being of your animal

I have been very fortunate to have found this clinic a few years ago. When I first walked in I was greeted by Dani. She sat with me and answered all my questions. She took her time and went over everything very patiently. It was because of her enthusiasm about her job and this clinic that I decided on coming here. They are all wonderful people that work here and they all are true animal lovers. The entire staff is very caring and most importantly knowledgeable. Angelia, Katie, Kelly and Jen have all gone above and beyond to help me when one of my dogs was very sick. Renata is a valuable front desk
