My wife and I move to Venice in 2017. Our Mazda needed routine service. We finished grocery shopping a Publix and I noticed Car Doc On The Island next to Publix. So, I thought I would give them a try. I met with Ana and we hit it off right away. She was so attentive, polite and courteous that I found myself wondering, "Am I really in an auto service and repair shop?" I also met Ana's husband Mike and he was exactly the same. The best way to describe their service is fantastic! Mike, Ana and their entire staff are very knowledgeable, courteous and respectful to their customers. They have always taken care of all of my auto needs in a professional and timely fashion. I simply could not ask for more from an auto service/repair shop! So, if you are looking for the best in auto service/repair around. You need look not further than Car Doc On The Island!!! You won't be disappointed!
