Providing 5-Star Pet Care in Houston

This is the ONLY place I will take my fur babies. Dr. Randy is the absolute best!! The entire staff are pet lovers and it shows in how they treat their patients. They will give you the information you need to make decisions and offer many options. They do NOT push unnecessary tests or products on you and they have great prices on the GOOD food your baby needs. They have free for life vaccinations, as well.

Absolutely fantastic "club" discount prices (and free basic vaccines) with a single one-time cheap membership price, as long as you bring your pet in for a checkup once a year. Fantastic staff, and to give you an idea of how well they think things through, the front desk is a big circle with 2 check-in stations... one on each side so you can do things while your leashed pet can't see the other leashed pet over there on the other side.

~ Michael F.

WHVMA provides such loving and thorough care for my dogs. While their services are expensive, the staff is knowledgeable, makes sure you understand all procedures/treatments, and they treat your animals like family. I highly recommend!

~ Mandy C.

I was driving thru the area and needed a vet quick (swollen faced puppy). Of all the vets I calles, only here did they respond me positively and immediately to get me in. The staff was all wonderful and I wish this was my hometown vet! Highly recommend to anyone in the area!

~ Cayce S.

I brought my two kitties here, the staff was so loving to them and the vet is very attentive and answered all of my questions so politely and was such a sweet person.
