“H-Town Vets have been incredible. My dog had a torn ACL, and they were able to get me in for a consultation and surgery the next day. The entire staff makes you feel at ease, and the doctors are amazing. I truly have felt like their only customer, even though I am far from it, based on their customer service and genuine care for my dog.”
- Valerie Holland
“I can’t express how pleased I am with the experience here. The vet literally got in the floor with Coco and did the exam. She tore her ACL. It’s week 3 weeks post surgery. She is doing amazing. The vet assistant got in the floor with her as well. I’ve never seen this. 5 Stars all the way!!!!”
- Shane Barber
“I'm very glad that I chose H-Town Veterinary Specialists when my dog was having problems with his knees. Everyone we spoke to was kind, patient, and knowledgeable. Even with an older dog, we've had amazing outcomes! Radar is already back to waking me up at dawn & acting younger than he is.”
- Rachel Walker
“Can’t say enough positive things about H-Town Veterinary Specialists. The communication leading up to each surgery and day-of was fantastic, and as importantly, they took the effort to reach out and ask how he was recovering for the following weeks. I can’t thank them enough now that Duncan is healed up and back to his bouncing happy self.”
- Tim McWilliams
“EVERYONE on staff gave us their FULL attention and treated us like we were literally the only person (and dog) on earth. They answered all 2,576 of my questions and concerns... and even sat there while I cried and helped me work through the emotions I was feeling! I was greeted with the same attention and concern on each follow up visit.”
- Amanda Welkey
“Now a word about the support staff: I think Scott actually dives across the room, he is so intent on never missing a call. If he can answer my questions, he does so, and if not, he may very well stalk Dr. Jones until he gets a quick answer. Trust only Htown Vet Specialists for your highest ranking family members!”
- Cindy Atwood
“We feel so lucky to have heard about this practice through our local vet to handle the orthopedic surgery for our 5 year-old rescue lab-mix canine. From check-in to discharge, we were led through the process with professionalism, transparency and a level of personal care that one could only hope for when dealing with our most beloved pets.”
- Mauricio Patino
“My dog was diagnosed with Osteochondritis Dissecans as a puppy over 2 years ago. My vet recommended H-town, and they were amazing from start to finish. He needed a shoulder surgery, which was scheduled & completed quickly. My dog is now living a healthy, normal life without limping & pain. Very grateful to Dr. Beale and his team!”
- Krissy
“Our cat came home with a broken leg and H-Town did the surgery to fix him up. We're still going through the followup care but everyone here has been wonderful. I highly recommend H-Town.”
- Jim Pitre
“Leaving the Stafford location now with our 10 year old bulldog, post orthopedic surgery. Htown is one of the best vet experiences I’ve ever had. In our time of great concern for our pet, they could not have been more comforting to us and our pet, or helpful. 10/10 would recommend this veterinarian.”
