Our History

Phoenix Veterinary Clinic was established by the late Dr. Vincent Lopez in the 1970’s and so named because of its location at 1 Phoenix Avenue. “Phoenix” quickly became a household name in veterinary care in Kingston and developed a reputation for caring and professional service. Dr. Sarah Wilkinson-Eytle joined this team in 1994 shortly after coming to Jamaica from her native Guyana and continued to develop and build on Dr. Lopez’s ethic of excellence in patient care. It was no surprise that when Dr. Lopez decided to retire in 2007 that the practice was passed into her capable hands.  In 2010 she also ventured to the heart of Jamaica and acquired the practice in Mandeville previously operated by Dr. Bernardo (Ben) Bell.

In 2011 Phoenix then moved to new premises at 73 Westminister Road and rebranded to Phoenix VetCare signifying the growth to more than one location and the expansion of our mobile service.  There have been many changes along the way but through it all the Phoenix VetCare team will continue to represent the best in compassionate, personalized and quality veterinary care and service that Jamaica has to offer.
