I have taken my dogs to White Rock Animal Hospital for over 20 years. The staff and vets show compassion and have a great level of care. Both vets are professional and knowledgeable and I trust them fully. It gives me peace of mind to know my companions are in great hands. Read Less

Dr. Williams and Dr. Hawthorne always have the best interests of my pets in mind. I drive from Fort Worth just to see them. It's definitely worth it. They've cared for my dogs, as well as the animals my canine rescue group takes in. Can't say enough about them. Experienced, compassionate, as well as the office staff and technicians. For the quality of care, the prices are very reasonable. Please take your pet here. You'll be doing yourself, and your pet a huge favor. Love them! Read Less

I have had the privilege of having pets as part of my family my entire life. White Rock Animal Hospital, both Dr. Williams and Dr. Hawthorne, have seen and cared for our pets for close to 20 years. I will promise you that you will not find a more compassionate and professional veterinarian office. We just recently had an incident with our big retriever which required major surgery. My dog received better consultation, surgical excellence, treatment, care and follow-up than most people I know who have themselves undergone surgery. They are tops and our family is eternally grateful for all they do! Read Less

The vets here are great! I love that you do not have to make an appointment for your animal, but can just show up. I believe one of the only services that requires an appointment is spaying/neutering which is done on Fridays. The vets are always willing to answer questions and truly care about the animals. I've never had to wait long to have our dog seen by them either. Plus, they both spend time at the 24 hour animal clinic off Greenville (weekend shifts) and they offer hours on Saturday. Great place to take your four-legged friend! Read Less

You could ask for a better veterinarian .... the staff is so personal and sweet! Then the vet there was incredible! I am a new fur baby owner and everything is new for me... they stopped and explained everything that is happening and what would happened. I will be telling everyone about White Rock! Thank you everyone! Read Less

I have been going to Dr. Hawthorne for more than 15 years and drive in from Lavon, as I trust him implicitly. He runs tests to confirm his diagnosis and does not just order a bunch of tests because he is clueless. Since I breed yorkies, I need a vet who can support me as a breeder. He has researched a number of issues for me and helped me make sound decisions in my breeding program. Dr. Williams is also a competent veterinarian. Although she is my backup, she has delivered pups by emergency c-section and all have been healthy. She has also successfully diagnosed some unusual situations. The staff is friendly and takes the time to get to know you. They even recognize my car and pull my file before I get in the door. I recommend this clinic to any of my puppy buyers who are in the area. It's a great piece of mind to know my pups are in good hands. Read Less

DO NOT take your animals to this place!! My aunt has had two animals die while coming to this pathetic excuse for a vet. Both were very old and dying from old age but instead of helping her put the animals down they charged her an arm and a leg to run "tests" and then told her with both animals that they were fine. This happened with her cat a few years ago and now her dog. I don't have to be an expert here but he can't even walk now and he is barely breathing. Just last week this vet told my aunt her dog would be fine he was just anemic. Now when I called up there to ask how much they would charge her just to put the animal down they told me they would have to run more "tests". This place is ridiculous. This animal is 17 years old! And now he is suffering. Do not go here. Please take your animals some where else. This place just wants to charge you and make money off of you. Read Less

I was referred to Dr. Hawthorne by a friend, and heard only great things about him! I was so nervous to get my dog spayed (and I mean really nervous) and I can't tell you how easy and calming they made the process for me and my pug Lucy. Dr. Hawthorn and Cindy answered all of the questions I had with confidence and explained everything to me very clearly. I am so happy I chose to take her here for the surgery. I highly recommend Dr. Hawthorne, and White Rock Animal Hospital! Read Less

Our family and extended family have been taking our pets to White Rock Animal Hospital for over 35 years. Do I need to say more? Drs. Hawthorne and Williams are extremely knowledgeable and are always very helpful and compassionate towards our dogs. If a crisis does arise, they will give you plenty of options to consider. One example was when my daughter and son in law's dog ate some milk chocolate, my son in law's vet at the time recommended three days on IV with constant care. I encouraged them to get a second opinion from Dr. Hawthorne and they did. Dr. Hawthorne gave Annie a shot and some pills and within a day Annie was fine as he expected she would be. For a young couple starting out, that saved them over $1,000. They now take Annie to White Rock for check-ups. Read Less

We have had many excellent visits at White Rock Animal Hospital. My dog loves coming in for his visits, playing with other pups in the waiting room and sometimes he gets to visit with his siblings when they stop by too. :) Read Less

We have used White Rock Animal Hospital since 1978 and never had any regrets. While we used to live in the area near the clinic, we now live almost 10 miles away, but still wouldn't consider letting anyone else care for our four dogs and two cats. I have only the highest opinion of the care given by the entire staff and will go to them as long as they are in business. Read Less

My family has used White Rock Animal Hospital for over 20 years. Dr. Hawthorne is not only the most dedicated veterinarian I've ever known, it's hard to think of anyone more focused on his profession. He's a great diagnostician, and the staff is friendly and knowledgable.Read Less

May be the best vets and hospital in Texas. We have known Dr. Hawthorne for 20 years. We have put the lives of our beloved furry family members into his hands without a second's hesitation. He is a brilliant doctor, a straight shooter, and he is always on the animal's side. He will do anything possible to help an animal ... and we have seen some near-miracles. His partner, Dr. Williams, has been an ace on the occasions when we've dealt with her, and seems like the partner that would be chosen by the best vet in Texas. Ditto, the staff. We could not recommend White Rock Animal Hospital more highly. Read Less

I wouldn't trust these people with my pet rock. Stay away from these guys if you value your pet's life. If I could give White Rock Animal Hospital a lower rating than 1 star I would. My son called them back on Jan. 30th because he needed to board his 6 month old puppy while tending to his father at the hospital in Houston for a knee replacement. When he arrived at the boarding place the owner inquired as to whether or not Bandit had been vaccinated for kennel cough. The owner had a vet across the street who would administer it for $35 if Bandit had not been vaccinated.White Rock had been administering Bandit's vaccinations so my son called them to find out. "Oh, yes," they said." Bandit was vaccinated for bordetella.."Well a few days after being boarded, Bandit started with a cough. My son called White Rock back to verify that the vaccination had been given. They checked the records again, and in fact, "No" the vaccination had not been given.White Rock charged my son, $160. $60 for an office visit. $60 for the antibiotic. And $40 for cough medicine. This could have been avoided with a $35 shot at the kennel.When My son brought this up to them, the response was absolutely no acceptance of any responsibility what so ever. They said, they weren't even sure that what Bandit had was bordetella. It could have been any other upper respiratory illness. And certainly the Vaccination MUST HAVE been given because that was standard treatment and it was probably a paperwork error. But if they had given correct information and tho $35 vaccination had been given, there would have been no need to go see White Rock at get Ripped Off for $160. Read Less

Stay away from these guys if you value your pet's life. If I could give White Rock Animal Hospital a lower rating than 1 star I would. My son called them back on Jan. 30th because he needed to board his 6 month old puppy for a day while tending to his father at the hospital in Houston for a knee replacement. When he arrived at the boarding place the owner inquired as to whether or not Bandit had been vaccinated for kennel cough. The owner had a vet across the street who would administer it for $35 if Bandit had not been vaccinated. White Rock had been administering all of Bandit's vaccinations so my son called them to find out. ""Oh, yes,"" they said."" Bandit was vaccinated for bordetella.."" Well a few days after being boarded, Bandit started with a cough. My son called White Rock back to verify that the vaccination had been given. They checked the records again, and in fact, ""No"" the vaccination had not been given. So my son took Bandti into White Rock and they charged him $160. $60 for an office visit. $60 for the antibiotic. And $40 for cough medicine. This could have been avoided with correct information when asked about the vaccination in the first place and a $35 shot at the kennel. When My son brought this up to them, the response was absolutely no acceptance of any responsibility what so ever. They said, they weren't even sure that what Bandit had was bordetella. It could have been any other upper respiratory illness. And certainly the Vaccination MUST HAVE been given because that was standard treatment and it was probably a paperwork error. But if they had given correct information and the $35 vaccination had been given, there would have been no need to go see White Rock at get Ripped Off for $160. Read Less

Dr Hawthorne has been our family's vet since 1986. He is not the cheapest, but you can trust this clinic to not run unnecessary tests or perform unnecessary procedures. He is very personable and his staff is helpful.  More than once, I have had to call them and ask them to fax my pets' vaccination records to a boarding facility and they have been more than willing to do so.  I can recommend this vet without hesitation. They also do boarding. Read Less

Dr. Hawthorn has cared for our pets for 20 years. Highly skilled. Not the cheapest vet you will find, but very personable, knows what he is doing, and I have never felt that he upsold or added unnecessary services. Read Less
