Memorial Town And Country Animal Clinic

The staff is always polite and efficient. Dr. Brasher and other staff members have been incredibly compassionate with my dogs especially as they get older. I am so grateful for their kindness and expertise. Read Less

Wouldn't take my babies anywhere else! The doctors and staff are the best in town - caring, compassionate and so knowledgeable. Whether a regular visit or an emergency, treatment options are discussed and all your questions are answered -- you can be assured your animals will receive the absolute best care. Read Less

I have used this clinic for many years and have had a great experience. They are caring and respectful, discussing my babies care with me. We are seen promptly, even in urgent situations. I love the way they greet and cuddle my babies. Read Less

Dr. Edwards and the entire staff at Memorial Town and County Animal Clinic have been huge blessings in my life. They take such wonderful care of my dog, Jack, and are always willing to help with any questions or concerns. Scheduling appointments is very simple. Just by being in the building you can tell it's full of genuine animal lovers. It's the type of place where you would want to bring your pet back for years, which is what I imagine many of their clients do -- and I'll be one of them. Thank you for your professionalism and compassion! Read Less

We've had really good experiences with Town & Country. A year or so go we had to put an older dog of ours down and they were more than compassionate of how it was handled and how we felt. We still have two pets that we take their, if we have any reservations or questions they always hear us out... staff is ALWAYS courteous and helpful when we call in... and we have recommended a few friends to them.

Memorial Town & Country has been our veterinary provider for the past 14 years. They have been amazing with us and our beautiful lab. As she gets older, and the issues more serious, the compassion and love they show to her (and me) is amazing. Read Less

Dr. Edwards and the entire staff are so wonderful!  Everyone is friendly and accommodating to your time and the needs of your pets.  They genuinely care about the well being of your pet and do their best to educate pet owners.  So far it has been a great experience. Read Less

This is a very caring and professional group of people, I would recommend them always. Doctors Edwards and Inman are simply the best, very compassionate and super kind with animals (only comment would be the waiting when you call them... but I think they are busy because lots of people trust them with their pets care) Read Less

We recently transferred from a clinic that we had been with for the past 15 years after continued inflated costs with every other visit, rushed appts if you were lucky enough to get a scheduled appt with your Veterinarian and difficulty in scheduling appts in a timely manner. ( There seemed to be more of a push for drop off visits only at my former clinic.) I can honestly say that "MEMORIAL TOWN & COUNTRY ANIMAL CLINIC" has been a true blessing and I could not be more happier. They have made the transition for all of our fur babies (2 large dogs, 1 puppy and 1 cat) an extremely easy and painless one. All of my fur babies walk without hesitation into the clinic even after several visits, annual immunizations, nail trimmings and examinations. For me, there is no better testament than that! We have even had 2 separate emergency visits and the care and attention that our four legged family members received by Dr. Brasher and the rest of the staff is hands down by far ......... exceptional. I feel that their fees are comparable, I have never had any unnecessary tests and procedures pushed on to me or my critters and I have have never left there feeling rushed or with any questions unanswered. This is like having all of the charm, friendliness and phenomenal care of a small town clinic right in the middle in a big city. I definitely give it "5 stars." Read Less

The Staff and Vets are the best. Dr. Peterson is very knowledgeable and has been our vet for years. I have referred several friends to them and they have all thanked me and continue to use them.You can tell they love animals and want the very best for them. They always go above and beyond. Read Less

Have been taking our dogs (8 total in family) for 17 years. They are always very helpful and kind. Dr. Brasher and Peterson gone above and beyond when we lost dogs (due to old age only). The experiences I have had with Inman have been positive as well. The whole staff are good at explaining symptoms (what is actually happening vs what Google told me) and what the resolution will be.

Most amazing vet clinic ever. The awesome staff at MTCAC has cared for our furry babies for 13 years, and I've never had a complaint. He practically hurdles over us to get into the vet clinic as soon as we pull into the drive. MTCAC feels more like family than a doctor's office.... and for that reason, I'll never go anywhere else! Couldn't recommend MTCAC more. 13 years can't be wrong. What's the fuss all about? Keep reading. Dr. Peterson has provided amazing care to our sweet boy Jake (a medium sized dog) for as long as he's been at the clinic (and most recently Jake has had super complicated medical issues). He's easy to talk to, listens to all of our concerns (by most accounts I'm a neurotic pet parent!), and has a very reasonable approach to care. He has been awesome at coordinating care with specialists when necessary. I've never felt like he was "over treating", or pushing high dollar tests/procedures. In Dr. Peterson's absence one weekend, Dr. Edwards made a tough call to send us to emergency care - it was the PERFECT CALL and probably saved Jake's life. Dr. Inman is patient, and willing to provide the simplest or most detailed information - depending on what you want. She has taken great care of our recent rescues (really small dogs), and made the transition process to foster care easy. The only reason I'm not commenting on Dr. Brasher is that we haven't had the pleasure of working with him directly, but know others who have and love him. Now to the staff. It says A LOT that the staff has had minimal turnovers throughout the years. It's so comforting to see the same front desk staff visit after visit, and hear a familiar voice on the phone. Oh, the vet techs. I love their vet techs! I feel like they really care about the animals they treat. Kimberly has been a fabulous wealth of knowledge over the years, and couldn't be sweeter or more comforting. Jen has been equally valuable in our experience. These ladies know my animals by sight, and are a huge part of the reason I trust this clinic. Referencing our complicated medical issue dog Jake, above, it was actually because of vet tech Jen at MTCAC, who chatted me up during a nail clip, where I mentioned some unusual signs I had been seeing, who recommended an immediate blood test .... where the first signs of abnormality were found. I can't stress enough that it was because of her, Dr. Peterson, and Dr. Edwards that quick action was taken, and Jake is fortunately still with us. If you've read this far, you've surely seen something that would make a difference to you in the care of your pet. So, what are you waiting for? This clinic's team ROCKS. . Read Less

Our dog has been with Memorial Town and Country Animal Clinic for almost 3 years. They have great appointment availability and great, animal loving personalities all around. During the recent floods, we ran out of dog food and they helped me even though they were closed. True commitment and love for their animals. Read Less

All of my dogs have been cared for at this clinic since I moved to Houston in 2002. The staff is dedicated and caring and the doctors are very well versed in animal care. In addition, should one of your animals need end of life services, I cannot imagine a more compassionate team. Mark Peterson, in particular, has been my dogs' primary veterinarian and I cannot say enough about how much I appreciate him. He is able to explain complex medical issues in a way that anyone can understand and you are never in doubt as to your animal's prognosis or treatment. I would not take my animals anywhere else.

We have been a clients there for several years. All of the Vets and staff are very caring and Professional. I am extremely grateful to have tbem. I know my giant bread dogs always are treated with kindness, & the most current techniques, in veterinary medicine. I have refered my family and friends to their practice. Read Less

I called over to secure an appointment for after the 1st of the year and quickly changed my mind after 2 minutes on the phone with the Receptionist, Becky! She was EXTREMELY rude. I spelled my last name, which she replied in a snotty tone, that she knew how to spell my last name. I've decided that if she was so obnoxious  to me and she was able to keep her job in spite of her rudeness,  that I could not...WOULD NOT trust any of them with my dog. Read Less

I love the all of the doctors here!  We have been taking our animals here for years and they have always taken wonderful and compassionate care of our family pets.  I wouldn't take my babies anywhere else! Read Less

This is the most reliable, professional, and knowledgeable veterinarian clinic around. I have had experience with two others, and they don't even come close. I have indoor and outdoor cats (so mostly an indoor cat and a cat who visits me), and they know my story and know what is best for my furbabies. The doctors are the best, and their office staff is respectful and patient. As long as I am in Houston, this will be our family vet. Read Less

Be careful, these are older arrogant burned out vets, they get attitude if you ask too many questions. Dr. Peterson & Dr. Inman told me my dog needed a strong antibiotic injection because she had a kidney infection, they did not want to wait one day for the culture & sensitivity test to come back to make sure it was the right antibiotic, instead they gave my 14 year old yorkie a really strong antibiotic injection that's only tested on animals that are well with deep skin lacerations. It's not intended for kidney issues and mainly used in feral cats that are difficult to medicate. This antibiotic has a short shelf life of 55 days so if they don't use it, they lose money. That's the only reason I can think of that they would give an antibiotic that's not even for my dogs issues and would stay in her body for 65 days. It was so strong that it caused my yorkie to go in Drug Induced Hemolytic Anemia. Instead of helping me when I was so worried and needing their help, I was told to go elsewhere, their ego was too big to help me & they were too arrogant to even consider she could be having a adverse reaction to a injection they gave her. She died Oct 6th, 45 days after injection. I tried my best to save her and couldn't. Read Less

PLEASE DO NOT TRUST DR. APRIL INMAN, DR. PETERSON OR DR. KAREN EDWARDS WITH YOUR CAT OR DOG!  You may lose your pet if you do because they are extremely careless and they won't be there for you if your cat:dog has adverse reaction, they are more interested in their ego and being right & if you suggest that your animal may be having an adverse effect, they get defensive, do not offer solutions and and tell you to go elsewhere. They killed my yorkie and was heartless about it! They used a very strong high dose long lasting antibiotic injection called Convenia, it stays in the animals system for 65 days. It was only approved animals that are well & with deep skin lacerations and mainly used for ferrel cats that are hard to medicate, it specifically says on the Zoetis Convenia insert under Precautions do not use this medication in the absence of a known bacteria, they sent off her urine for a urine culture & sensitivity test but Dr. Peterson & Dr. Inman gave a large dosage of the injection the same day and did not wait for the results.  A prudent doctor waits for the culture & sensitivity test to come back to make sure it's the right antibiotic, and if they want to start your dog on an antibiotic that day, they would start her on an oral antibiotic, not a longterm strong injection that's for skin infections and can't be reversed once it's given. My yorkie died Oct. 6 2015 from Drug Induced Hemolytic Anemia, a known side effect of Convenia, if they wanted to give a 14yr old yorkie with a kidney infection an injection for off market purposes than why give a huge dose? Why not at least play it safe and give half dose since they shouldn't be giving it at all! I went back in 6 days later to get blood taken because I was worried, her RBC, HGB & HCT was lowering and her WBC went down a little, and her Reticulocytes had doubled & her Bun went up. Dr. Peterson walks around from the back & says good news, it looks like her WBC are responding to the antibiotic, no mention or concern about the rest of the values, so as I'm leaving I ask for a copy and that's when I see the values had all changed shifted toward Hemolytic anemia. That was the last time Dr. Peterson talked to me, and Dr. Inman never talked to me after she gave my baby the lethal injection. I went in on Aug 30th for more blood because I was scared and found out that I had a new doctor, they had pawned me off on one of the meanest people I think I have ever met Dr. Karen Edwards. She was cold with a defensive attitude from the beginning, I'm standing there with my yorkie who I love dearly with tears in my eyes explaining that I'm scared she's having an adverse reaction and instead of being concerned or doing anything at all to help, she blurts out that she stands behind what Dr. Peterson & Dr. Inman did as far as the Convenia injection goes and it seems like I don't have trust with the clinic so perhaps I should go elsewhere. I was shocked! The doctors at Memorial Town & Country Animal Clinic have been around for a while, they come across as burnt out vets that can do no wrong and really don't want to be there, I really think it's It's better to get a young up to date vet that still loves animals & loves their job!! They may not realize that they took the love of my life from me, because to them, she's just another dog! Read Less

I have been taking my dogs to Memorial Town & Country Animal Clinic for many years.  I called Memorial Town & Country Animal Clinic and talked to 2 different people at the front desk and they told me independently that I can either have my dog get a physical from the doctor or have a technician do a test so that I can buy heart worm medication.  I decided to have the doctor do the physical even though it was more expensive.  When my dog was getting the physical by the doctor, the doctor went ahead and did the heart worm test without telling me, and when I said that I only wanted the physical, the doctor said they had to do the test for me to purchase the heart worm medication, and the front desk was wrong. I was charged for both the physical and the heart worm test.  To me, it was a simple bait and switch scam.  This vet is out for your money.  Beware.  I would just go elsewhere. Read Less

i have gone to MTAC for years.. my first dog lived a good long life and passed in her sleep from old age,, my second dog layla was a bundle of joy, but about two months ago i took her in because of her constant coughing. unfortunately she was diagnosed with heart failure... i could have lost her that day,! Dr Inman was amazing and wonderful and with medication i was able to   have anther couple of months with layla. Unfortunately, her heart failure progressed quickly and yesterday I had to take her in because she couldn't breath. Again Dr. Inman and the staff and clinic were amazing. They gave layla oxygen and got her stabilized and I was able to have another couple hours to be with her and say goodbye.. Layla was never in pain, Dr. Inman was amazing in the way she explained everything to me , the prognosis,, the options. Any question i had,, she explained perfectly... when i made the decision to euthanize layla, it was heartbreaking. But i knew it was the right thing to do,, and it was a very peaceful loving process.. thank you dr. Inman.. thank you thank you thank you . Read Less

Call us crazy but we got 2 puppies from the same litter. Cute little bundles of fuzz joined our family in April. We looked around the neighborhood for a vet and this one was conveniently located so I made the appointment to see how the vet interacted with our new babies & whether we felt comfortable with the doc & the clinic.The front desk staff warmly greeted us & we checked in. Large waiting room with plenty of seats which we took advantage of during our brief wait. Dr. Edwards called us to the back & you could tell that she loves animals. I loved the way she handled our puppies, she took her time with each & got some cuddles in during the exam. The vet techs are all nice & also handled the pups with love. I really like Dr. Edwards, who has limited hours at the clinic so all of our appointments are scheduled around her schedule (she's there most Saturdays). We have been back  three times for the usual round of shots & each time we were in/out quickly & received the same service. So happy we found a vet clinic that we like & so near the house!!

We moved and needed a new vet and came here.  Dr. Peterson took care of my 14 year old "high maintenance" cat with a lot of care and understanding.  Sadly, we had to put our boy to sleep, but Dr. Peterson and his staff could not have been kinder.I now have two new kittens and am very happy with the care, the facilities and the staff.  I will definitely continue to take my animals to Dr. Peterson.

My husband and I have two dogs, Juno and Fiona, both whom we proudly adopted from animal shelters.  After my husband googled a vet with good reviews, we settled on Dr. Mark Peterson to be the doctor of our girls.  We have seen him about three times over the past year.  This is our true story.Visit one: Around December 2009- I was not present as I was at home slowly dying from a bought of pneumonia/pleurisy/bronchitis/flu, however my husband states to this day that Dr. Peterson was kind, friendly and helpful with our dog Juno, who was taken in for leg pain.  One major positive, he gives shelter dogs a cheaper first exam. BONUS!!Visit two: Around the end of September 2010- I brought Fiona, our new puppy of two weeks, in two get a general check up and because we just had a feeling something was not right.  He diagnosed an (unnamed) parasite and provided us with ten days of antibiotics, saying it would be cleared in no time and that we had nothing to worry about.  PS.. he did not use gloves... even during the fecal sample... no, I'm not kidding...Visit three: Two weeks after the previous visit: Fiona still has something wrong with her and we have a new carpet cleaner to prove it (the Pet Stain Spot Bot, I give it 5 stars if you're in the market)..   My husband and I brought both Fiona and Juno in to get checked in, wondering if the unnamed parasite may have spread to both dogs.  Dr. Peterson was short and rude with me as I explained the situation (even my husband noticed) and stated "oh, you didn't tell me about that" after I mentioned her symptoms, after I most certainly had the previous visit.  He gave her one round of anti-biotics, which did clear up the problem $50 dollars later.  As my husband stated in the car ride home "someone wasn't using their listening ears at Fiona's first visit and they just cost us $50 bucks."  So true.    PS... Dr. Peterson continued not to use gloves EVER... gross.....Moral of the story?  We got rid of our puppies' parasites and her vet.The end.* no names in this story were changed Read Less
