Rice Animal Hosptital

My dog developed arthritis at a young age due to a past trauma. Despite doing everything I can she has been more painful recently since we have a new dog in the house. I brought her in today to start laser therapy since my regular vet doesn’t offer this service. The staff was very kind and welcoming and the doctor gave me a lot of good information. Cricket appreciates you guys!

Friendly professional staff, easy to book. Nice location and treatment rooms. Confident and competent Doctor and assistants. Easy instructions and thorough answers to my questions. Also, Resolved my cat's ear infection fast and easy!

I have nothing but good things to say about V.E.T Care hospital. Great experiences with regular visits for my best friend Torque. And a flawless neuter procedure done by Dr.Gibbs. I was and am very picky about who I trust with Torque and V.E.T checked all the boxes. Not only did the procedure go great but he recovered quickly and we even received follow up phone calls to make sure he was doing good. Dr.Gibbs was very informative and answered all my questions regarding the procedure and after care. 10 of 10 would recommend. We are glad to have a trustworthy vet that we know we can rely on moving forward, it’s a relief knowing he is in good hands with Dr.Gibbs and the staff at V.E.T.

My great Dane had her tail docked here due to happy tail issues. The tail docking and the spay procedure including blood work and aftercare medication was $700. This beat out the competition by over $400. My dog then chewed her tail down to the bone and so I had to take her back in to get restitched. I was quoted by another popular vet office $2,500 for the procedure when I came back to Dr. Gibbs instead I paid $120. The work he did and has always done for all my animals was immaculate. I don't see any reason anyone would go anywhere else he simply is extremely skilled at an ridiculously reasonable price. The staff he has both behind the desk and behind the individual rooms are very good very kind and make everything very easy. I have always been very well informed on every detail of what was done so I fully understood.

They helped us get through losing our Pitt bull to cancer and although it was obvious we caught it to late and we would lose diesel they did everything they could do to try to keep him alive. They never gave up on diesel and for that we are grateful. Frank and Angelia Rightmer-Benjamin

They fit me in when I called same day! Kind,efficient,knew how to handle what my pet needed done! Explained in detail so I completely understood what was going on! They were gentle with my 12 yr old Pomeranian and that makes it worth choosing V.E.T. Dr.Gibbs

Dr. Carlos and staff has been our vet for about a year and a half now. Super cute interior, great location, and very nice and knowledgable staff. I’d recommend them on that alone But holy moly they cannot hold an appointment time to save their life. Every one of our appointments for the past year have been missed by at least 30 minutes, no exaggeration. The worst was an hour late, twice. If I could slip them $50 just so they see me on time, I would. Be prepared to add 90 minutes to your visit, no matter what

The best I was a receptionist for this dr and his old colleague about 18-19 years ago and he’s still the best vet around. I wanted to add to this bc I’ve noticed some bad reviews and it’s crazy to me that ppl give bad reviews over a wait time or over their 17 year old doggo having normal blood work one minute and then the next they have organ failure. There’s multiple reasons dogs can have Auden organ failure. A bad shampoo getting into something they’re not supposed to the list goes on. People should really get all the facts before making a bad review on a place on an emotional whim. I didn’t give him a good review bc I worked for him when I was a new young mother for a short bit. He took care of both of my pit bulls 20years ago also. Now I rescued a German Shepard that was in bad bad shape and dr Gibbs took one look and knew exactly what needed to be done. Did some tests have the meds and she looks amazing !! Just as he said she would. Took my tuxedo cat to him for some skin issues. He cleared it up in one visit! Her hair was falling out and she was scratching herself bloody! He knew exactly what to do. Took my sleeve Pekingese puppy to him and he gave me All the options that he had for me, and told me she was truly an ophthalmology case and he let me decide what I wanted to do bc not everyone had veterinarian ophthalmologists money, I’m lucky enough to have it. So I took his recommendation and got her to the veterinarian ophthalmologist. She had a seizure and before she was even out of the seizure I was on the phone with them in tears. They guided me through it and even called the next work day too. Heck on her!!! Even had his fill in check on her! They truly care. His goal isn’t to dig in peoples p ok ets it’s to care for the animals and give us the best options while being mindful of our finances and the fact that there’s a recession and inflation to keep in mind. I could list a million other reasons why this man and his staff are amazing but I’ll spare you. Just try using your brain before you bash a business bc your 200 year old dachshund had to have his teeth worked on or bc the ancient poodle suddenly had organ failure two weeks after normal blood tests. Animals don’t live forever people.

AMAZING clinic!!! Dr Gibbs, tech Hailey, and the front desk staff were SO nice and helpful and Dr. Gibbs didn't over-treat. He did a full exam and listened to all my concerns. He isn't quick to draw blood and take x-rays unless he really thinks it's necessary. Less wasted time/money for me and less stress for my furbabies! He believes in client conversation too which is amazing because he takes the time to listen to the whole story before making a diagnosis. This was my first time coming to this clinic with my sick kitten and I was really nervous about it, but I'm so glad they were able to fit me in quickly and they provided excellent service! Tater Tot and I will be clients for life!
