My sweet greyhound Cissy started going to Dr. Doering when she became the vet at Virginia Parkway Pet Hospital. When I rescued Cissyr from Greyhounds Unlimited, they informed me that greyhounds need special care due to their lean body fat. I never had to worry that Cissy was not get ting the best care. Dr. Deoring always took time to explain any procedures needed and I credit her with helping to extend my sweet dogs life. Greyhounds normally do not live longer than 11 years but with our love and a great vet she made it to 14. Although I will not be getting another furbaby for sometime, I know that I will always have a wonderful vet when I do. Thank you to everyone at Virginia Parkway Pet Hospital. Much love from the family of Cissy Lee Richards.

Don't let this vet prescribe MOMETAMAX for your dog if it has a yeast ear infection. Dr Doering didn't bother to tell me that it can potentially cause deafness in your dog. My dog is now totally deaf. The medication is 3 generations old. There are two more drugs that are newer and more effective, and were not offered through the course of the summer and many hundreds of dollars. If you are offered Mometamax, demand another drug. I don't know why she would prescribe a drug with deafness as a possible outcome. I would like to have had the opportunity to decide if I wanted to take that risk, but was not offered that information.

Overpriced. Charges for things that my last vet included in a general office visit fee. I don't like that they take your pet to a separate room for the exam so you can't see what's happening. Prescriptions are extremely high. I told them I couldn't afford the medication and would need to shop around for a better price. The vet did everything she could to discourage this. She said online medications usually come from Australia, come with high shipping fees, or are not authentic. I was told I would only be given one chance for a prescription with 1-800-petmeds because they are "dishonest and share prescriptions between pets".

Great vet experience. Took my large breed dog and they were extremely knowledgeable about the rare breed in Texas as well as helpful with his ear infection. They kept me updated on how he was doing in the back frequently and it made feel right at home. They gave me prices right up front and I didn't feel pressure to purchase or pay for something that I didn't need. What a wonderful experience to know your loving vet takes care of your animal!

We have been using Dr. Doering for a year and a half and have been extremely pleased with the professional care we have received. Every time I call whether it be to schedule and appointment or call with a question or concern, I have always felt that the staff was very kind and caring of the situation. We recently had to have several tumors removed surgically and the care our dog received was top notch! They called the next day to check on her. We love Dr. Doering and her staff!

I have been going here since Late 2013 when I had to start searching for a new vet for my Dog and cat. I am very glad I found this vet clinic. The staff here are polite and very helpful, the clinic is very clean and appears very sanitary, which I assume is hard for a animal hospital to keep up with, but this clinic is very clean compared to others I used to go to. The thing I like about Dr. Doering is that she took time answering any questions I had and helped me understand everything. Dr. Doering and the clinic staff took wonderful care of my animals and kept me informed. Vet Clinics I have been to in the past have been very cramped in the lobby with other animals where I would have to keep my dog on a very tight leash, this clinic lobby was spacious and I didn't have to worry about my dog encountering other dogs which was a huge plus for me. I definitely recommend this clinic to anyone !

We began visiting this clinic by referral when we first adopted our Dog. While Ms Elizabeth King was the Dr the service was fantastic! Donna as well was great to work with. Tracy on the other hand had an awful attitude and acted as though any questions were a bother to her. Recently our pet had a small ulcer the size of maybe a pencil eraser on his chest. I took him in almost every 2 weeks paying HUNDREDS of dollars for medication & skin scrapes just to be sent home saying it was normal and would go away on its own. Well after a few weeks it was huge fifty cent piece size and thick. I took him in to Dallas surgery center where I was told it should be removed ASAP! I paid almost $3000 for the surgery on the Bump that I was told would go away. Worst part of all our poor King had to have almost his entire chest cut open to ensure they were able to remove all of this. It was traumatic and had him down for weeks. He was completely black & blue for almost a month. In addition to all of this chaos when it comes time to submit the insurance claim thru VPI pet insurance I was told it would not be covered. Due to errors in his medical records stating that the chest mass had been there prior to our coverage. This was completely incorrect as he had a full physical about 7-10 days prior to coverage starting. DO NOT TAKE YOUR PET HERE!!! YOU WILL BE OVER CHARGED AND HAVE TERRIBLE CARE!!!

Dr. King is an old school vet. I like old school vets.I grew up in the country and back then we brought our animals to an old German vet up on the Texas/Oklahoma border for years who just had that gut instinct about animals and their needs. This is what Dr. King is like.She has been working with animals for over 40 years!! She is technically my mom's vet which is how we discovered her because her office is outside of Stonebridge Ranch where my mom lives. If you live anywhere near this area this is where you need to bring your animals.If your animal has any issues Dr. King's office will call you the next day to check up on your furry friend. I love that. She really knows her stuff and really cares.

HI guys! Just recently our beloved pet of 14 years came down with an acute and sudden illness. We had previously visited another vet and was astouded with the poor service and lack of compassion that was shown to us and our pet. We met with Dr. King and the rest of the staff at Virginia pet hospital who treated us and our pet with the upmost concern and attention. CAlls were immediately returned, the vet called NUMEROUS times to inquire about our pet. All financial choices were presented and offered with respect during this tough economic times and when our pet finally succumed to her illness...she even gave hugs and tons of compassion. The office was awesome, respectful and just plain kind to our most loved one. Thank you Virginia parkway pet hospital for all the best care~ We will refer all our frineds and will def be back with our other dog.

After being told by my vet in Austin that my dog would need a $200 test or he may die, I was freaking out. I'm a college student, I wouldn't have a dog if I hadn't found him on the side of the road, and after his previous bills added up to almost $2,000 (initial puppy care + giardia hospitalization) my credit card was tired and I really couldn't afford the test.My mom recommended I bring my dog up to Dr. King for a second opinion... I am SO glad that she did. Keller will now be driving 4 hours to see his vet (except in emergencies) and will be getting the best care possible. While the visit in total added up to about the same amount of money as the test fee, the solution was much more bearable.If he had the test done in Austin, it would've come back negative as he doesn't have that disease, in which case the next step was to cut him open and biopsy him... Dr. King listened to his symptoms, evaluated his health and energy level and... SWITCHED HIS FOOD. He'd been switched around a lot because he ate one brand, we were told he was allergic so we switched until he liked one, but he has chronic colitis and has to be on prescription food plus a probiotic and he is fine now. He has more energy than ever before and is doing great.Plus when they take your pup back to get their temperature and blood, they come back to you with a little bandana, how cute is that? I am so glad to have found Virginia Parkway Pet Hospital and Dr. King.

Well after a few weeks it was huge fifty cent piece size and thick. I took him in to Dallas surgery center where I was told it should be removed ASAP! I paid almost $3000 for the surgery on the Bump that I was told would go away. Worst part of all our poor King had to have almost his entire chest cut open to ensure they were able to remove all of this. It was traumatic and had him down for weeks. He was completely black & blue for almost a month. In addition to all of this chaos when it comes time to submit the insurance claim thru VPI pet insurance I was told it would not be covered. Due to errors in his medical records stating that the chest mass had been there prior to our coverage. This was completely incorrect as he had a full physical about 7-10 days prior to coverage starting. DO NOT TAKE YOUR PET HERE!!! YOU WILL BE OVER CHARGED AND HAVE TERRIBLE CARE!!!

Dr. King is an old school vet. I like old school vets.I grew up in the country and back then we brought our animals to an old German vet up on the Texas/Oklahoma border for years who just had that gut instinct about animals and their needs. This is what Dr. King is like.She has been working with animals for over 40 years!! She is technically my mom's vet which is how we discovered her because her office is outside of Stonebridge Ranch where my mom lives. If you live anywhere near this area this is where you need to bring your animals.If your animal has any issues Dr. King's office will call you the next day to check up on your furry friend. I love that. She really knows her stuff and really cares.

HI guys! Just recently our beloved pet of 14 years came down with an acute and sudden illness. We had previously visited another vet and was astouded with the poor service and lack of compassion that was shown to us and our pet. We met with Dr. King and the rest of the staff at Virginia pet hospital who treated us and our pet with the upmost concern and attention. CAlls were immediately returned, the vet called NUMEROUS times to inquire about our pet. All financial choices were presented and offered with respect during this tough economic times and when our pet finally succumed to her illness...she even gave hugs and tons of compassion. The office was awesome, respectful and just plain kind to our most loved one. Thank you Virginia parkway pet hospital for all the best care~ We will refer all our frineds and will def be back with our other dog.

After being told by my vet in Austin that my dog would need a $200 test or he may die, I was freaking out. I'm a college student, I wouldn't have a dog if I hadn't found him on the side of the road, and after his previous bills added up to almost $2,000 (initial puppy care + giardia hospitalization) my credit card was tired and I really couldn't afford the test.My mom recommended I bring my dog up to Dr. King for a second opinion... I am SO glad that she did. Keller will now be driving 4 hours to see his vet (except in emergencies) and will be getting the best care possible. While the visit in total added up to about the same amount of money as the test fee, the solution was much more bearable.If he had the test done in Austin, it would've come back negative as he doesn't have that disease, in which case the next step was to cut him open and biopsy him... Dr. King listened to his symptoms, evaluated his health and energy level and... SWITCHED HIS FOOD. He'd been switched around a lot because he ate one brand, we were told he was allergic so we switched until he liked one, but he has chronic colitis and has to be on prescription food plus a probiotic and he is fine now. He has more energy than ever before and is doing great.Plus when they take your pup back to get their temperature and blood, they come back to you with a little bandana, how cute is that? I am so glad to have found Virginia Parkway Pet Hospital and Dr. King.
