About us

Palm Tree Doctor is South Florida's leading palm expert. **We do not trim or remove trees or palms*** We have been operating out of Pompano Beach since 1991. Palm Tree Doctor is the original palm specialist. We diagnose palms, treat palms for spiraling whitefly, malnutrition and disease and also maintain nutrition on palms. We have three full time technicians and a full time office manager who answers the phone live. We do not use subcontractors. We have an $85 charge for a consultation. This amount will be applied toward any treatment performed by Palm Tree Doctor. An ISA Certified Arborist will diagnose and evaluate your palms and in most cases, can perform the service at time of consultation. If diagnosis is uncertain, or if you are not satisfied by the Arborist's diagnosis, there will be no charge.

Company failed to respond to request for quote. Didn't even bother to contact me to discuss or come by for a quote. Would not hire this company under any circumstances.

The tech was dressed professionally in a logo polo shirt and the company vehicle was nice. He addressed all my concerns and questions and treated the palms accordingly. Did not push for an up-sale. Pricing was as discussed with no hidden charges.

Our Palms were failing and we called the Palm Tree Doctor. We only had one treatment and some new growth developed on two of the three trees. Instead of continuing I chose to hire a maintenance service to regularly treat my plants.

This man LOVES palm trees; knows all about them. Washingtonian is a goner but the Foxtail and Jelly are on the road to recovery. He is cheaper than buying a replacement tree. Very reasonable price. Second time I have used them.

Mike called me shortly after he inspected the palms and reported that to an untrained eye the palms may have appeared to have a problem with the dropping leaves, but Mike informed me that the palms had just been weathered a bit, and did not need any servicing and would be just fine. He also gave me some very good tips on how to take care of palms (what to do and what not to do)  I was renting my house as I am currently living out of state and he had every chance to make a sale or convince me to spend a lot of money taking care of the palms, and I would not have known the difference, but instead he was extremely honest with his assessment.  His knowledge of palm trees was also very professional.  I would definitely recommend the Palm Tree Doctor to anyone who needs their palms looked at and would definitely use them again.

Michael is very knowledgable and professional.  I lost several large prized palms to a lightning strike and he comforted me in coping with the loss and explained how some palms recover and some don't.  Highly recommend for your palm tree needs.

I called during business hours on Friday morning to request a quote for tree removal. No one answered, but I left a message and almost a week later still have not heard back from them.
Response from Palm Tree Doctor

"Hello [removed member name]. I know it's frustrating to leave a message that goes unanswered. We never received a voicemail from you. We take pride in returning each and every voicemail. There are several other companies with names similar to ours. Perhaps you called another company. We don't remove trees, but can recommend a reputable landscaper. Please call us at 954-946-3600 if you would like a recommendation."

WOW WOW WOW! These guys are amazing.  This is not a company out for your money - they truly care about keeping your property and palms healthy and beautiful.  They are the REAL deal too - arborists that may specialize in Palms, but they are not lacking in their knowledge of other trees and plants.
I had Michael out, one of the two arborists to consult on a large palm i had that was dying (ganoderma :(  ) and to check my other palms out.  He was a pleasure to meet and walk through my property with.  Not only did he focus attention on my palms that needed help - but he also provided useful, honest feedback on my other trees and plants on my property ONLY due to his desire to insure everything is happy and healthy.
Finally - what struck me as amazing was his honesty and desire to educate me during his short time at my house.  In south florida - you DO NOT find that in alot in most industries, but specifically in the landscaping industry.   
I'd do business with them again, and would recommend them to anyone and EVERYONE that would listen to me.   Trust me on that.
Response from Palm Tree Doctor

They were great.  Prompt and efficient service.  They were not a pushy, sales oriented company.  They were genuinely interested in our trees and what was best for them.  They took time to explain and answer all questions.  Highly recommended.
