Absolutely fantastic! I'd give Windsor Park Veterinary Clinic ten stars. My rescue doggo Gary loves them too, so they're now her forever vet. Here is why: Gary is a formerly homeless doggo from Missouri with a major back leg and hip problem from a botched emergency surgery after being hit by a vehicle. The Missiouri surgery was done poorly and there was apparently near zero aftercare during the foster months before I adopted her. So, Gary came to her forever home here in Austin with a withered rear leg and permanently dislocated right hip. I first took Gary to a big Atx vet practice who simply referred to a specialist ortho surgery center. They did an MRI to recommend major prosthetic hip surgery. But neither took the time to actually explain things, offer any alternative options, or even really just listen. So at both steps I felt kinda railroaded and definitely frustrated. This is why I took Gary to Windsor Park Veterinary Clinic for a second opinion. There, Dr Hein took lots of time to evaluate my pupper, inquire about practical things like her likely future activity level, and really examine all the previous diagnostic info. Dr Hein then took lots of time to SUPER CLEARLY explain what the previous vet and ortho specialist didn't -- what exactly a full hip replacement would entail, the possible benefits and definite risks, and the specific pros/cons of that versus a simple amputation. Dr Hein is taking time to really understand my goals (no more chronic pain for Gary, low risk of future complications, a long life of neighborhood walks and couch naps, etc) to create a plan that I fully understand and that Gary can agree with. AND all the staff there are super fantastic! Again, TEN stars. read more

It's been two weeks since I had to say goodbye to my sweet boy. Throughout every step, he was treated with so much love, compassion, and kindness. Receiving his ashes was handled with such care, and a few days later I received prints of his sweet nose and paws along with a beautiful handwritten card signed by the staff. Thank you all for making such a painful time feel a little less heavy. I will always be grateful for the care and love you showed for my dog and our family. read more

Windsor Park Veterinary Clinic - Pluto post-surgery (Cystotomy) with Dr. Mockler - Veterinarians Near Me - Austin, Texas

Had my first appointment there with my dog yesterday, just his annual shots and check up. I'll start by saying my dog is difficult, to put it mildly, so I was pretty much dreading bringing him in. He's extremely fearful, leash reactive to other dogs, and doesn't like to be handled, though he loves people. In fact, at his last annual visit at another vet, they gave up halfway through. I had warned them beforehand of all this, so we were able to call when we arrived, and they got a room ready for us and told us the coast was clear to bring him in. The women at reception were so nice and friendly. The vet tech came in with toys to calm my boy down and she was so sweet and gentle with him, and she played with him while we chatted about the visit. He fell in love with her after five minutes, and was sad every time she had to leave the room. The vet came in and we determined quickly that trying to get his medical stuff done with me holding him wasn't going to work, so they took him to the back to let the pros handle it. They got everything done really quickly, even with my dog screaming the entire time (even when they weren't doing anything. Yes, he's a drama queen). What I thought was REALLY great is the two vet techs that had worked in back with him came back to the exam room and got on the floor to "make peace" with him, and let him know they were his friends. So nice of them to take the time to do that, and my dog left the "scary" vet's office happy and in good spirits. This place has good people, I highly recommend them. read more

Wonderful service from the folks at Windsor Park Vet Clinic! In the past, I've been so pleased with Dr. Geigel-- lots of knowledge and awesome "bedside manner"! Dr. Danielle Griepp, tech Kda and office manager Sarah all provided more great service on short notice. Sam the schedulerer was able to get Archie the maltipoo and me in ASAP this last week. All of the staff is committed to taking as much time as needed to answer all questions and provide great care. Thanks to every one of you! read more

Romeo has had very irritated ears since he was a puppy and this clinic was such an amazing first experience for him. The staff was non judgmental, very educational, + very time efficient. They leave Romeo smiling and feeling better with plenty of treats within an hour! Much love to Evan and Dr.Geigal read more

Windsor Park Veterinary Clinic - Romeo after our visit - Veterinarians Near Me - Austin, Texas

I just lost my kitty Ruby, and they were incredibly kind and compassionate. They've taken such good care of her, I really appreciate them.

23 July 19 I'm new to Austin and just called Windsor Park Vet to book an appointment. I spoke to the receptionist who explained to me that the doctor visit is a minimum of $50 with a $25 deposit required when the appointment is booked. She explained to me that due to frequent no-shows, this is their business practice. I told her this is an unusual practice and I have never paid up front for future services or asked for monies before services that my business provides. Over the years I've heard many stories about people pre-paying for services and then never seeing them again. No one should be required to pay for goods or services upfront. This vet is the closest to our home and I would prefer to use it. I did just find another vet 4 miles away. They seem to have standard business practices. No deposit required. read more

Windsor Park Veterinary Clinic - Max says this place is Boooo.... - Veterinarians Near Me - Austin, Texas

We have used this vet for 2 of our problem dogs and we just love how they work with them. From plenty of information to resources for our aging pets changing needs to serving our pets with caring attention. We feel very supported by all of the staff. read more

If I could give no stars I would. Took my dog to this vet for an ear infection and they were extremely rude. Tried to charge me for 7 other things I did not need or come for. This place is the reason I never liked vets. They just tell you whatever they want so you can spend your money because they think you don't know. And after getting a second opinion they wouldn't even help me "until I started making decisions for my dog myself". Will never go here again. read more

The vet saw my dog only five minutes made appt for next day blood work and X-ray. Next day they left my dog in a cage 5 hours and when I phoned to pick her up I was told the Dr was about ready to see her but I brought her home. Animal Medical Clinic they did tests while we waited she was out in an hour. I don't think this vet took good care of my dog who was sick. read more

This place has changed over the years. What was once a solid practice has declined significantly. They seem more interested in pulling teeth and making money than providing good veterinary care. From scheduling mishaps to vaccines not being given on schedule, resulting in extra cost and extra visits, customer service has declined drastically over the years as costs have increased. When I left their practice two months ago after more than a decade after being denied entry without divulging personal medical information, I requested a copy of my dog's records. They still have not provided the records. read more

This vet, who our family has been patronizing for decades, decided that we are now required to have a heartworm test. This is a painful procedure that every vet I have ever worked with has allowed me to decline. Now this vet has cut off our access to heartworm medication. Does that even make any sense? We have had to leave the practice because this vet is unwilling to work with us and our very fearful dog. I encourage any low income animal owners who want to choose what procedures that are not vital and required to pay for and ask their animals to endure to find a vet that respects their choices and the difficult decisions that non affluent dog people have to make. read more

Our limited over-the-phone interactions with this clinic have been extremely disappointing. If the reception staff insists on being rude to potential customers, I guess they don't want our business. Nor should they get yours! Our dogs and their humans are much happier going to City Limits Vet Clinic, even though it's much further away from our Windsor Park home. read more

We first took out lil guy to a clinic, the only clinic open on a Sunday. We got some X-rays done and some blood work done, apparently our little man had "blockage" and aside from the $350 we spent on labs he needed a $2000 surgery to explore his insides. At the time we only had maybe $1500 (we had just moved in to this area w/depleted savings) and of course the vet wasn't taking any type of payments. We decided to look around for someone to help us maybe finance the surgery and we found this location. They ran some more tests and some other labs here, they had waaaay more equipment than the other vet so the tests were more thorough. Turns out my man didn't have blockage after all, but a heart murmur, the doc then sent the labs to a specialist cardiologist who confirmed my baby's heart murmur. I broke down and cried because if my baby would have had the "experimental" surgery he would have DIED! His heart was very weak and we almost lost him for a second. The doctor still follows up with us, though their customer service is enough for us to never look elsewhere, their professionalism and knowledge take the prize. We are thankful to have found this place. read more

My husband and I have been bringing our anxiety ridden dog to this vet for years. They do so well with him and all the quirks he has.

From first impression, I was very pleased. Emily was so kind and accommodating. My fur baby (whom was in a lot of pain) was taken back after little to no waiting. Techs were knowledgeable and very sensitive to Olive's sprained paw. Dr. Geigel immediately addressed my dog's minor 'emergency'. She was also proactive at recognizing the need for long term prophylactic arthritic care. It meant the world to me that she addressed both issues during the same visit. read more

I wanted to thank Windsor Park Vet staff for their gentle compassion. We said goodbye to our beloved cat, Reggie, who was 18 years old. It was heartbreaking. Everyone at WP vet was so kind and gentle during this process. They explained each step and what to expect and continued to guide us one step at a time. We are so grateful. read more

We are so happy to have found this place for our corgis Tasty and Toasty! Everyone here is super nice and kind. The Doctors are very professional and have helped us through various issues (ear infection, allergies, UTI, regular shots). I highly recommend this place for the best care for your pups! read more

Dr. Geigel is the most thorough and patient health care professional I've encountered in any field, not just vet care. I look forward to our visits, knowing she will be a wealth of information each time. I just wish I could find a human doctor who would treat me the same way Dr. Geigel treats her patients! Top that off with great staff, a great location, and affordable prices, and Windsor Park will be my vet for as long as I'm in Austin! read more

Easy to book, friendly, and local. Dr. G and her clinical staff are in constant communication through the treatment and follow-up phases, and their costs seem to be in line with standard practice (on some items, lower). Our wonder dog Buddy Willis is happy to call this his Austin provider of choice! read more

I took my pets here for about 4 years when I first moved to Austin and always had a good experience. Their office was always very clean and the vet techs were friendly, helpful, and great with my dog. I very much appreciated the fact that the office would tell me the costs and go over different options with me before I had to make any decisions (I originally came to the office because my dog was pretty sick and I hadn't had very good luck with the vet clinic I was going to previously). In general, I also found them very affordable compared to other vets in Austin. I actually only stopped going to Windsor Park because I moved across town, and getting there turned into a nightmare (blame Austin traffic, not the vet clinic!). Dr. Geigel and her team are very much recommended. read more

I hope no one ever has as trying an experience with a vet as I did with Windsor Park Vet Clinic. Everyone on staff seemed well meaning, and they were kind to our cats, but that was not enough to make up for the deficiencies. I don't know where the source of the problem stems and I'm not blaming anyone in particular. Basically, we were fairly satisfied taking our cats there for routine stuff, but when our cat became seriously ill, the annoyances became huge liabilities. The vet was not communicative about our cat's health or the cost of his care, a big deal when he was seriously ill. We had to hear everything from the front desk people, who did not know what they were talking about. We were told he had a curable condition, then told it was chronic (it turns out it is not a chronic condition, as I learned from the new clinic where I am now taking my cat). We were told to expect a $150-$250 bill, it ended up being nearly $1,000. In all fairness, it must have taken more time for our cat to get well than they thought, but they could have done a much much better job of informing us of the expected changes in the bill, especially when we made it clear that money was a concern. My experience at a new clinic has confirmed the things I suspected all along were wrong with Windsor. 1) I do think they performed unnecessary and costly procedures on our cat when he was ill (and possibly other times as well). 2) It is not asking too much to see the vet. 3) It is normal to expect clear communication about the cost of care. I don't think we were intentionally misled and I feel somewhat bad leaving a one star review, because I do like the vet and the staff. I just think there are some operational issues at that clinic and we ended up paying the price (literally) for their lack of organization. read more

I really liked this place. If you can get over the out-of-the way location, then this is definitely the place to go. The place was clean and all the staff were very friendly. The doctor was more than willing to listen to me ask 15-20 of what must have been some of the dumbest questions he's ever heard about cats. And he took the time to explain to me everything that was wrong with George Michael. I REALLY appreciated that. Some vets I've had just give very cursory answers to questions. One thing that I REALLY appreciated was that he gave me medicine that would be the easiest to give to a cat. Rather than a pill, he gave me a liquid that I could just squirt down his throat. I'm not sure if you've ever tried to give medicine to a cat...but it can literally be a painful experience. (think claws and teeth!) So I thought it was very considerate of him to be sure to give me something that would be easy to give George Michael. Other crucial piece of information - parking. There is ample parking in the parking lot. read more

Unfortunately, I moved to South Austin, and have yet to find a vet I like as much as this place. I have two cats, one who is extremely fractious, and taking him to the vet is always a traumatic experience for me and the cat. The vet that he saw at this clinic never seemed especially freaked out about the cat throwing himself at the bars of the carrier, growling, hissing, spitting, etc. Their vet techs always had the situation well under control, and would hold the cat firmly, but gently, so he could get his shots. Their prices were reasonable, and they were willing to help me cut costs if needed (for example, the big kitty has allergies, and rather than bring him in for steroid shots monthly, the vet suggested trying an OTC medication, and gave me the appropriate dosage for cats). They did occasionally ask me if the cat was like that at home (as if he was an abusive husband) but otherwise, they made an uncomfortable (for the cat and for me) situation bearable. read more

I cannot say enough good things about Windsor Park Veterinary Clinic & their staff. I haven't had a vet I loved this much since I moved to Austin from San Marcos (Springtown Veterinary) in 2004. I can't begin to express to you how caring & warm they are. They are a blessing! I have sent all my friends there & they have had nothing but glowing reports. I wouldn't take my pets anywhere else! read more

This place sucks!! I have been taking my dogs and cats there for years and in February I took one of my dogs there because he was sick. While I was there I as informed that my dog's heartworm test was due so I had them do it then. What they faied to mention was that if I didn't buy any HW meds at that time that they wouldn't sell me any later?!?!?! I didnt need any at the time because I already had some at home. So I was informed of this today when I went by there to pick up some HW medicine and they told me I couldn't get any unless I paid for another test!?!?! Heads up Windsor Park a lot of places don't even require HW test anymore so screw you Windsor Park and I will look for anothr place to take my pets! I also plan to report your "shady" buisness ethics to the Board. read more

My dog went to Windsor Park Veterinary Clinic yesterday. We received prompt attention from both Dr Geigel and her assistant. My old dog got really nervous and Dr Geigel wasted no time giving him a long hug to calm his jitters. She spent a lot of time with us and administered all my dog's routine procedures/shots herself. Her prices were very reasonable, especially dental cleaning which my poor doggy will have to have done. Neither Dr Geigel or her staff pushed excessive procedures and products which I have experienced in other clinics. I will definitely be going back to the Windsor Park clinic. read more

Everyone is so kind here. Our dog is very fearful around new people and they have been so understanding and helpful with every treatment or visit. Can't say enough good things about this place and the people that work here! read more

2 of my friends strongly recommended this vet to me. I just returned from my first visit at Windsor Park Vet Clinic and am so happy with their services. They worked me into their schedule on the July 4th Holiday weekend and treated me and my cat with so much care and compassion from start to finish. I also appreciated their reasonable prices. They provide much better care at much better prices. I can't be happier tonight knowing my cat will spend this weekend recovering and feeling better due to their willingness to work us into their tight schedule. My 4th of July holiday is going to be so great because of their willingness to help at such a critical time. THANK YOU!!! read more

The vet is an interesting experience when you have a 90-lbs. Great Pyrenees/Lab mix who thinks he's the size of a Cocker Spaniel. Thankfully, Windsor Park is close to our house, affordable, and very patient with our hyperactive (yet oh-so-sweet) pup. Everyone in the office is highly knowledgeable and friendly and their hours are very convenient. What other vet is open until 6:30pm? Plus, they can usually schedule an appointment within days of your request (even sooner if there's an emergency). read more

We have been going to WPVC since we first adopted Delilah, our puppy, last fall. I think I initially found the clinic through Yelp (where else?) and it is as lovely as everyone else says! It's easy to make an appointment as a new client and I felt super comfortable as soon as we walked in the door. The vet techs, receptionists, and Dr. G are so warm, kind, and friendly. You can tell they really know their stuff, and more than that, they truly care about the animals they treat. After Delilah's appointments, Dr. G herself usually calls the next day, just to check in and see how our pup is doing. Now that's some personal service. Also, this clinic is conveniently located on Gaston street, which makes me sing the Gaston song from Beauty and the Beast to my dog every time we go for a visit. She loves it! (I think.) read more

This place is amazing! The staff is Wonderful and most importantly they are compassionate! They are so caring and really love animals :) Cookie, my 9 month old GSP mix, had Cherry Eye on both eyes. It was so bad, that the gland was inflamed and almost starting to cover her eyes. Dr. C, took the time to examine Cookie and come up with a plan to fix her cherry eye and spay her the same day--but best of all Windsor Park clinic worked with my budget! The surgery was a success! My Cookie only took a couple of days to heal and she's back to being a fun loving puppy :) Thank you Windsor Park Veterinary Clinic! read more

I would gladly drive cross town to take my pets to Windsor Park Vet! The staff is extremely kind and it is obvious how much they love animals. Dr. Paclik and his staff are warm, caring individuals and their prices are extremely fair. I'm very thankful for their services. read more

Dr. C. and crew are the best...took VERY good care of my Henry during and after his lumpectomy. Always friendly, affordable, and keep to appointment times. So happy I finally found a forever-Vet for my dogs. read more

Fantastic!! My 14yr old cat was treated great, even though he's a handful. He's getting dental work. but, He's in good hands!

I love my vet! I have 5 dogs, and thankfully live very close to this Northeast Austin location. I have been using this clinic since my original vet , good old Doc Stalworth, across from St Eds, retired. Dr Rita Geigel is a skilled and compassionate vet and I trust her completely. From puppy till the bitter end, she is truthful about prognosis, their prices are fair, the staff is friendly and welcoming. I am currently making the hardest decision a pet owner ever makes with one of my dogs, and rather than talk me into thousands of dollars of care that wouldnt save my dog, she laid it out there, but in such a kind and comforting way. I can't tell you how much that helped me. I think the world of her and her clinic and I don't think you could find better care. read more

We've been going to Dr. Geigle for the past 7 years. She is very knowledgeable and compassionate. She's helped our dogs and cats with multiple different, difficult conditions. The staff is also very friendly. Highly recommended! read more

Hello World, This place is by far the best vet I have ever taken my cat. Ezio needed an emergency urinary treatment, and according to the emergency room at the VET, he was at the verge of death within 1 day. Windsor Park Vet Clinic was the only ones that the Austin Animal Shelter could find for him that would work with us to get him taken care of. we tried almost 5 other places, and they were still the only ones that stepped up. I can happily say that my cat Ezio is doing just fine now after these past couple months. They helped us. They did everything they could. They saved his life. That's what a hero is. read more
