Central Broward Animal Hospital Offers Independent Veterinary Care in South Florida

Doctor‑owned Central Broward Animal Hospital in Plantation, Broward County, provides a non‑corporate alternative to annual wellness contracts that dominate many veterinary chains in South Florida. Founded in 1987 by Dr. Jonathan Wald, the practice has remained family‑owned for nearly four decades, emphasizing continuity of care and personalized treatment plans for dogs and cats.

Dr. Wald says corporate contracts are designed to lock in future business rather than meet a pet’s current needs. At Central Broward, clients see the same veterinarians over time, receive AAHA‑accredited services such as exams, vaccinations, dentistry, surgery and same‑day urgent care, and avoid the subscription‑style model that treats pets as account numbers.
