When I first got my Alaskan Malamute, Kodiak, I asked neighbors about vets and they recommended Dr…read more Polly Wilde, "Dr. Polly". First time I took him to get his shots she got in the floor with him and played with him and gave him treats. She took care of him for the whole time I had him until he developed a tumor in his spine which cut off the motor neuron messages to all his legs and he could not get up or walk and had to be put to sleep. He did not appear to be in any pain, he just could not move. For people there would have been a wheel chair, but for a 130 pound Malamute there was no good solution. Heaven is a place that when you get there, all the dogs you ever loved come running to greet you!

NO STARS!.... NOT ONE!…read more I have a cat that had an open wound that was infected with maggots, nothing too serious, but in need of treatment. So I called Lake Area Animal Clinic because everyone say's they're one of the best clinics in the area... I'm sure they are, but here are some things you should know that isn't noted on their website. This is what they told me over the phone, contrary to what their website say's... Lake Area Animal Clinic does not take walk in emergency/trauma patients. Yet, they clearly state on their website, that they offer PET EMERGENCY SERVICE. That's a lie... They will refer you to the vets in Llano, Marble Falls, and Round Rock. So don't even waste your time setting an appointment. Lake Area Animal Clinic does not set appointments for animals with open wounds infested with maggots or other infections. Their protocol and policy is to refer you to the vets in Llano, Marble Falls, and Round Rock. Lake Area Animal Clinic does not give prices or quotes on services. They like to keep their SURPRISE BILLING a trade secret. The other Vets I spoke with in the area, also passed the buck, referring me to other vets (including Lake Area Animal Clinic), they too also refused to give me a ballpark figure on the cost, and they ALL get really rude when you press the issue. So, basically I'm on my own and I have to some how McGyver this cat back to health. So I watched some You Tube videos on wound care, and found a home vet forum, there some nice people instructed me as to what I needed to do. So I set up my own little hospital in my laundry room and went to work on this cat and began flushing and removing the maggots myself, its taking some time, but treatment is working and the cat is purring and not as in much pain as before. It would be nice if I had some chloroform to kill these suckers with, but I had to make due with a saline/peroxide solution and some bactracin and lidocaine to ease the pain this little kitty was in. I'm confident he will make a full recovery, no thanks to the so called 'veterinarians' in the area. I can't contain my candor... I'm absolutely disgusted with these people... THANKS FOR NOTHING! It's really sad I had to contact a !%#$'ing Vet in INDIA to help me.

I have a Corgi that will turn 11 in January. In October of 2023, he was diagnosed with AIHA. Then…read moreOct of this year I learned that he has DM. When our old vet retired, we had to find a new one. 1 of the Dr's from our old clinic had recently moved over to the HSB Vet Clinic. We thought we were making a smart move my switching everyone over there since we were already familiar with her. That turned out to be the BIGGEST mistake! When I discovered something abnormal on my corgi's scrotum area, I took him in. She did not do any testing whatsoever, looked at it, had another Dr look at it, came back & told me that they believe it to be a form of cancer. She continued to tell me that due to his age & medical history, she didn't feel as though he would be a candidate for a biopsy because he probably wouldn't be able to pass the anesthesia & they didn't think they would be able to stop the bleeding. In short, she was basically telling me he should be put to sleep. Something in my gut didn't feel right. I decided to get a 2nd opinion. Made the appt with Dr. DeFiley, took ALL of his records. She was more optimistic. In all of his prior blood tests, his platelets were all in a normal range. So there shouldn't be an issue with clotting. She did the surgery & sent what was removed for testing. Turns out it was NOT cancer! This was such a relief! To think that the other vet made no effort at all to help my Flapjack & suggested he be put to sleep infuriates me! Needless to say, we are extremely happy with Dr. DeFiley & will doing all of our business with her at Bluebonnet! She's truly cares about the wellbeing of your fur babies.

Dr. McBride might have saved my dog's life -- and I do not say that lightly…read more After my dog was attacked and then misdiagnosed elsewhere, his condition rapidly worsened. When we brought him to Dr. McBride, he took no time at all to recognize what was truly going on. He correctly diagnosed my dog with canine spinal meningitis and immediately began the proper treatment. That quick action gave my dog a fighting chance. What sets Dr. McBride apart is not just his medical knowledge, but his heart. He is the first veterinarian I've met who genuinely cares -- not only about the animal in front of him, but also about the people who love that animal. He was kind, patient, compassionate, and took the time to explain everything to me and my husband during one of the scariest moments of our lives. Dr. McBride is the kind of veterinarian we desperately need more of. Knowledgeable, decisive, honest, and deeply compassionate. He is truly a blessing, and because of him, my dog is still here and improving. We will forever be grateful to Dr. McBride. He will always be our the vet we chose.

It was so bad the mold & rat feces and every kind of cockroach and wet lice or wet lice you can find. He started getting weaker and weaker and we took him to Dr McBride Dr McBride said if he can help him he will of course he loves animals but he said his blood count was less than 1% and he was not going to put him through anything like that if he couldn't save him. Well Rusty made quite the impression on Dr McBride. They loved him everybody was good to him you could tell he was happy there when we got to pick him up his blood count was less than one for about 5 days and on the 5th day Dr McBride decided to give him a blood transfusion and that afternoon he was already doing better but he was really sad we got to go visit him and he was just so heartbroken but when he went back in I mean he wasn't like he was dreading going back in so I know they were treating him with love and goodness. If he didn't want to go back in there he would have been fighting because he would want to go home. I believe my dog understood what was going on. Then the day after that transfusion Dr McBride said we can come get him so I went and got him with my daughter and it was a miracle. Dr McBride is the best you can trust him and you can trust his judgment. He is a very good man. He is so busy he has to be short and to the point most of the time but he gave my little rusty and me and my daughter time to come and love him and see he wanted to see him after he was back to his full self again and he called all the staff in said look look at Rusty you know he's the one that was dying. Here he is look at him Dr McBride saved his life. They spoon fed him. I love him like I love my own children he is the sweetest super special little dog you ever known I love him with my heart and soul. Seriously and forever grateful to Dr McBride.

We had to have our very old dog Oliver put to sleep, which is the most difficult time in the life of a pet and pet-owner. Dr. Rosberg was so gentle, kind, and thoughtful to all of us. He went out to our pickup so we would not have to carry Oliver in. Dr. Rosberg explained everything to us and reassured us about what needed to be done. Dr. Rosberg petted, soothed, and talked to Oliver the whole time. I know that Oliver never felt anything because I was holding him the whole time. As far as I'm concerned, a vet can't get better than this.
