Well over due, kudos!…read more Owning many cats and dogs, unfortunately our animals have medical issues. In this particular case, an adopted puppy who needed double hip replacement as a result of dysplasia. My vet was highly recommending a local orthopedic. Mean while poor dog is in dire pain. I am stressed out listening to my dog's pain. Nothing can prepare you for listening to your dog trying to tell you. Help me. Long story short, I didn't have a plan. The referral vet, who has the dog's X-rays & medical records for over a month, never returned my call. My vet didn't shed any info, just that they would get the orthopedic surgeon to call me. Which never happened! I called Dr.Madigan. Left voicemails in tears. Trust me I couldn't stop crying. Dr. Madigan returned my calls with helpful advice. Never in my life have a met a more compassionate vet. This vet does not know me or owe me anything. Yet the Dr. Madigan provided his time! God less you, Dr. Madigan!

Bulverde Bexar Veterinary was recommended due to pricing, and and their walk-in policy. Basically, on Tuesdays and Thursdays, they allow for walk-ins on a first come, first serve basis. It was a very long wait because we arrived much later than their 8 am opening, and there were quite a few people ahead of us, but the place's system is pretty good system. They get your name, phone number and give you a call when they are ready for your pet. The place is clean, staff is very helpful and kind, and their prices were better than many other places. Long story short, this was a very sad visit, but it was handled very well, and with compassion. I can't recommend them enough.

I see a pattern here... it's not good. I've been with Startz Vet for 5 years now. I can honestly…read moresay Dr Kaufman is the best. However, there seems to be a change in the front office. My experience was so bad, I have changed vets. They treat you like you are an idiot. They put you on hold and forget you are waiting. They call you to set an appointment to review test results, then they demand a $50 "consultation fee" before you can talk to a vet to discuss lab (blood test) results. Evidently, you must interpret the results on your own unless you pay the hostage fee. When I tried to set a meeting to discuss with Dr Kaufman, I was deny access to him. This place is just insane. Maybe they were bought out and "Dr Brown" (office manager) runs the show. I suspect she has a PhD in finance on how to nickel and dime customers. The final straw was I was not able to have a discussion with Dr Kaufman. I feel I was blocked from talking to him. I'm done with being "managed" when my pup is sick and at risk. Read the most recent reviews and see the pattern. This place treats people with disrespect. I would love to have a call with Dr Kaufman to get closure. My first question will be "what changed with your front office". In a small town, people want a relationship with the vet, not the front office. If the tail (front office) thinks they wag the dog, they are sorely mistaken! Keep treating clients like I was, you will run them ALL off. I'm out! UPDATE: I found a new vet and puppy problem solved. Turns out it was parasites. A simple fix. Startz turned a mole hill into a mountain of problems for me. Turns out, they lead me away from them and I found a vet who figured it out first time without exuberant cost and heartache. Sometimes, God closes one door to open a better door for you.

Highly recommend this team for anyone wanting compassionate veterinary care. 12/19/25 We are incredibly grateful for the care and support we received at Fur and Feathers during Rocky's treatment. The entire staff were welcoming, compassionate, and truly took their time with us during such a difficult time. Dr. Scheibe and the team were thoughtful and caring every step of the way, taking the time to explain everything and making sure we felt supported. They even stayed with Rocky through his final moments, which meant more to us than words can express. They also gently provided information about cremation options, helping guide us through those next steps with kindness and understanding. We are so appreciative of the care, compassion, and dignity they showed Rocky and our family.

After having our first exam with Dr. Z, I trust her with my cat's life because the care she took by trying to understand his symptoms, medical history, etc. Also, she explains things in a way that makes sense.

So I took Mr Beans In on Saturday for his annual checkup and shots. From the time I walked in to the time I left they took care in making sure my timid little man was comfortable. But today they called me with his lab results that were great and emailed them to me as well. I began to look them over and saw something that said HIGH. Concerned I started looking online for information. I then called them to see if they could explain it and if I needed to do something for him. After a brief hold, I expected to get a vet tech but instead it was Dr. Kothmann! He took the time to explain it to me and assured me Mr Beans was healthy and fine. This was everything to me! He is busy and he made the time to make a furry guardian comfortable. I couldn't ask for a better vet or staff! I'm so happy I made this decision.
