What our clients are saying about us
We have established longterm and stable partnerships with various clients thanks to our excellence in solving their automotive needs!
Outstanding service, supremely knowledgeable, super reliable. I have limited funds and it takes time for me to give out trust. I was very hesitant to spend where I didn't have to until the AC compressor for my Honda CRV went out... With Florida being as hot as it is I had to make a choice and I am extremely satisfied with my decision to go with the Car Doc on the Isle. Friendly faces, clean environment, and the reassurance that it was going to be okay. Stacy guided me on the situation and made my initial hesitation vanish nearly instantly. From now on I know exactly where I am going to go when I need new tires or something pops up - I'm going straight to the Car Doc.
The whole experience was amazing they truly do treat you as family and all the staff was wonderful. My car runs like an absolute dream now. I could not be happier with the service. Thank you to the whole shop.
