Brandos Animal Hospital

San Antonio, Texas
General Info
Brandos Animal Hospital delivers geometric principles to pets throughout Texas. Spatial intuition guides every entry point exam movement and hand placement during the first 90 seconds of any visit making these actions particularly visible. Direct approach to pets remains unperformed unless they extend an invitation. Instead staff adjust directionality using soft curves slight sideways movement and diagonal body angles. The startle reflex diminishes while orientation trust develops through this process. Caregivers occupy strategic positions by sitting at right angles which enables animals to establish a triangular relationship between comfort zones and medical attention points. Before any tools emerge, intricate patterns of blink rates combine with paw arcs and balance shifts. Brandos Animal Hospital delivers imaging services together with early onset detection while managing chronic issues and providing cardio screening alongside gastrointestinal alignment and age-specific care. The arrangement of services occurs by means of access tolerance. Certain animals permit side contact before allowing frontal interaction. The effectiveness of communication with others increases when musical instruments are positioned on the ground prior to usage. Discharge routines encompass re-orientation techniques including methods for walking pets in a calm zigzag pattern, approaches for home bandage inspection angles, and bedding setup to avoid corner-trapping during recovery. These tips lessen flight behaviors while helping pets regain spatial security when they return to familiar areas. Throughout Texas from San Antonio to every local area, Brandos Animal Hospital weaves veterinary care into the distinctive angles and pauses that animals naturally comprehend—transforming medical treatment into a welcoming experience instead of a disruptive one.

If I could give this place no stars, I would. My cat was very lethargic and not eating for two days. The next morning first thing, I took him to Brandos. I was told by the staff that the vet wasn’t in yet, so I waited. When she came in she saw a couple of other patients, who I assume had appointments, first. When the vet got to me (I can’t remember her name. She’s a very... tomboyish looking lady, for lack of better/kinder words) she asked me what my cat’s name was. I told her and she SCOFFED. Uhm, ok? So I tell her what symptoms he was experiencing, and she told me that he would need blood work and a leukemia test to diagnose him. I could only afford the blood work, so we had that done. When it was finished she said he was experiencing anemia but would need to run more tests before giving him any medicine. Then she told me, with the coldest expression I’ve ever experienced from a vet, that he probably wouldn’t survive. I was completely distraught and angry. Luckily, I followed my instincts and purchased some iron medication for him, and administered it to him for the next few days. I gave him food and water through a syringe, and he was right as rain in just a few days! Thank god I didn’t listen to that HORRIBLE vet! She clearly doesn’t care about animals or people, she just cares about money. We went to Ace Vet Clinic not too long afterwards and got him a leukemia test. No leukemia! Just low platelets due to an illness that can be spread through mosquitos (my initial thought before taking him to the vet. I had done some online research beforehand.) Honestly, you’re better off not going to this awful place. Go anywhere else but here. This place should be shut down and that vet needs to lose her license. My recommendation is Ace Vet Clinic. Small, affordable and FRIENDLY! They actually give a **** about you and your pets. Read Less

I’m so upset. I took my dog in cause he was having a hard time breathing his heart rate was through the roof. The vets Assistant sat him on the table while me and my son watched with hope that she could tell us something. So vet walks in sits by her computer and starts typing not even acknowledging me or my son not a hello or how are you just a cold shoulder. After about 5 min of her typing she looks over at me and asks me exactly four questions. I answered and she then turned her attention back to the computer. About 3 min later she Checks my dogs heart, lungs, and temperature. And looks me in the eyes and says I don’t know what’s wrong with him but if you want to find out it going to be about 300$ to start and could get expensive after that. Now I love my dog with all my heart I rescued him off the street but I don’t have that kind of money I literally used the last of my money which was for groceries to take my dog to see her. I started asking her questions and she stop me and tells me I can’t answer you on any of that till I run some tests. My questions where simply like could he have something stuck in his throat not Does he have a heart condition. She wouldn’t even answer basic questions without more money not to mention when I walked out of there the bill was 150$ to tell me I needed 300$ more. Needless to say I spent the last of my money. now my dog is home sick and I fear he is going to die all I can hope for is that he makes it till my next paycheck so I can take him to a better veterinarian. Don’t ever trust your pets to this vet shes just money hungry. Please pray for my dog Read Less

I gave a rating of 0 (Zero) but had to put a Star or I can't post. I have been a customer for many years to Brandos Hospital for one of my dogs, and now have a new Pet.. This past Friday I had a horrible experience early morning by two of their STAFF members. They were very RUDE. I told the girl she was Rude, she argued back with me. I left the dog in early AM and was called back to pick up dog had watery stools. Couldn't neuter. I spoke to Vet physician, who sounded like she didn't care. You talk about not caring at all of her RUDENESS and OF HER STAFF. I took my dog to a 5 STAR Vet Hospital. Dog is healthy as a Horse and not ill. He got neutered. I will never go back to such non-caring place and people. Oh and that rude older man who kept starring at me, whomever he was, doesn't need to be there also. This dog was a RESCUED dog OFF THE STREETS. It was all about $$$ and their horrible staff with no manners. You lost a great customer. Don't call me ever to see how the dog was doing.

I HATE BRANDOS. I brought my pug here sometime last year, I know this is a late post but I had some trouble posting a review. But now that I have it all figured out I needed to make sure I came back to write a review because this establishment is absolutely horrible. I seriously hope they go out of business. When I brought my pug in, he had just gotten attached by a pit bull and had a puncture wound in his stomach and was bleeding heavily. The doctor did not even take him right away just say me down to explain the costs ... THE COSTS. She didn't even seem to care he was dying in my hands. She just looked at him sit there. OH and it was going to be $1500 for everything. Her over all attitude was repulsive. Why be in the animal caring field if you do NOT CARE. Anyways I suggest Lincoln Heights Animal Hospital, they took my Chico in as soon as he walked in no hesitation. They grabbed him and was like oh poor baby. And they even set up a payment plan and comforted me. It was only $500. I did two payments of $250. SO DO NOT GO TO BRANDOS.Read Less

This vet will scam you. I went with my pet thinking i would get answers as to why he was not eating and had become so lethargic. the vet asked bogus questions, felt my pet a little, took his temp then said she couldn't tell what was wrong. only test could determine. we said yes to her exams and turns out everything came out negative meaning there was nothing wrong. after me and the vet not knowing what was wrong, she then tried selling us medication to i guess fix the unknown problem. i asked several questions to try and make my pets life a bit easier when returning home and she answered very rudely, rarely looking at me. i don't recommend going here there is so many other vets who actually care about you and your pet, who will actually help you and not just try to sell you and lure you into doing unnecessary things just to charge you and take your money.

I visited this animal hospital while my cat was not feeling well. It was my first time here and I was not pleased what so ever. I will not be returning. The vet was extremely rude. I asked questions as any concerned pet owner would and her responses were sarcastic and unhelpful. She answered as if I was stupid and as if I was suppose to already be an expert in cat anatomy. Which I'm clearly not that's why she's the vet not me. Over all she was not able to determine what it was my cat had after severe test but still tried to sell me medication. This made no sense to me. The vet was not friendly at all. Not a people person. Waste of money and time for absolutely the worst service. The receptionist was nice and more understanding.

She gave him a shot to ease his pain and then Monday when he crashed we took him to her. Even though she didn't think he was going to make it (yes doc I could tell) she was still contacting a specialist for us. He past then. The whole staff was so kind to us as we were historical. She hugged me and patted my back. She is a great Vet. I have never trusted a vet like I do her. She also gives great prices. You dont get vet care for free so stop that. Im looking everywhere to give her comments. This is actually my first time giving reviews as I saw it necessary for my baby boy to do him justice and other establishments we had to deal w this weekend during emergency. Its wrong that her clinic is still associated w Becker bc of the address. She is not Becker. This is not associated w Becker. She actually CARES. LOVE you all at Brandos!

Visited Brandos Animal Hospital for the first time this past Friday, July 24th, 2015. My friend's 14 yr old Chihuahua developed a medical condition which required urgent care. We called several places, but had no luck getting Chico in to be seen timely. We decided to give Brandos a try. Just drove in and inquired about Chico being seen. Although the staff was busy, they cheerfully worked Chico in to be seen. Within 30 minutes of arriving, the doctor treated Chico and relieved his pain and discomfort after a brief procedure. We were really impressed at the customer service displayed by the employees here. They work well together and treat their clients with courtesy and respect. The doctor was great. She's the owner and also the only Vet on duty. My friend told me that she was very attentive to Chico's needs and did not try to pressure her into any unnecessary services. We left there very happy that Chico had received prompt medical attention and also satisfied with what we felt was a very reasonable fee, considering that we came in without an appointment. Needless to say, my friend has decided to bring Chico back for all future health maintenance needs. I also have a dog and will be bringing him to Brandos for future checkups and vaccinations. I highly recommend Brandos, if you happen to live in the Hildebrand/Fredericksburg Rd area or beyond. These folks will treat your pets right. Read Less

If I could give this place no stars, I would. My cat was very lethargic and not eating for two days. The next morning first thing, I took him to Brandos. I was told by the staff that the vet wasn’t in yet, so I waited. When she came in she saw a couple of other patients, who I assume had appointments, first. When the vet got to me (I can’t remember her name. She’s a very... tomboyish looking lady, for lack of better/kinder words) she asked me what my cat’s name was. I told her and she SCOFFED. Uhm, ok? So I tell her what symptoms he was experiencing, and she told me that he would need blood work and a leukemia test to diagnose him. I could only afford the blood work, so we had that done. When it was finished she said he was experiencing anemia but would need to run more tests before giving him any medicine. Then she told me, with the coldest expression I’ve ever experienced from a vet, that he probably wouldn’t survive. I was completely distraught and angry. Luckily, I followed my instincts and purchased some iron medication for him, and administered it to him for the next few days. I gave him food and water through a syringe, and he was right as rain in just a few days! Thank god I didn’t listen to that HORRIBLE vet! She clearly doesn’t care about animals or people, she just cares about money. We went to Ace Vet Clinic not too long afterwards and got him a leukemia test. No leukemia! Just low platelets due to an illness that can be spread through mosquitos (my initial thought before taking him to the vet. I had done some online research beforehand.) Honestly, you’re better off not going to this awful place. Go anywhere else but here. This place should be shut down and that vet needs to lose her license. My recommendation is Ace Vet Clinic. Small, affordable and FRIENDLY! They actually give a **** about you and your pets. Read Less

I’m so upset. I took my dog in cause he was having a hard time breathing his heart rate was through the roof. The vets Assistant sat him on the table while me and my son watched with hope that she could tell us something. So vet walks in sits by her computer and starts typing not even acknowledging me or my son not a hello or how are you just a cold shoulder. After about 5 min of her typing she looks over at me and asks me exactly four questions. I answered and she then turned her attention back to the computer. About 3 min later she Checks my dogs heart, lungs, and temperature. And looks me in the eyes and says I don’t know what’s wrong with him but if you want to find out it going to be about 300$ to start and could get expensive after that. Now I love my dog with all my heart I rescued him off the street but I don’t have that kind of money I literally used the last of my money which was for groceries to take my dog to see her. I started asking her questions and she stop me and tells me I can’t answer you on any of that till I run some tests. My questions where simply like could he have something stuck in his throat not Does he have a heart condition. She wouldn’t even answer basic questions without more money not to mention when I walked out of there the bill was 150$ to tell me I needed 300$ more. Needless to say I spent the last of my money. now my dog is home sick and I fear he is going to die all I can hope for is that he makes it till my next paycheck so I can take him to a better veterinarian. Don’t ever trust your pets to this vet shes just money hungry. Please pray for my dog Read Less

I gave a rating of 0 (Zero) but had to put a Star or I can't post. I have been a customer for many years to Brandos Hospital for one of my dogs, and now have a new Pet.. This past Friday I had a horrible experience early morning by two of their STAFF members. They were very RUDE. I told the girl she was Rude, she argued back with me. I left the dog in early AM and was called back to pick up dog had watery stools. Couldn't neuter. I spoke to Vet physician, who sounded like she didn't care. You talk about not caring at all of her RUDENESS and OF HER STAFF. I took my dog to a 5 STAR Vet Hospital. Dog is healthy as a Horse and not ill. He got neutered. I will never go back to such non-caring place and people. Oh and that rude older man who kept starring at me, whomever he was, doesn't need to be there also. This dog was a RESCUED dog OFF THE STREETS. It was all about $$$ and their horrible staff with no manners. You lost a great customer. Don't call me ever to see how the dog was doing.

I HATE BRANDOS. I brought my pug here sometime last year, I know this is a late post but I had some trouble posting a review. But now that I have it all figured out I needed to make sure I came back to write a review because this establishment is absolutely horrible. I seriously hope they go out of business. When I brought my pug in, he had just gotten attached by a pit bull and had a puncture wound in his stomach and was bleeding heavily. The doctor did not even take him right away just say me down to explain the costs ... THE COSTS. She didn't even seem to care he was dying in my hands. She just looked at him sit there. OH and it was going to be $1500 for everything. Her over all attitude was repulsive. Why be in the animal caring field if you do NOT CARE. Anyways I suggest Lincoln Heights Animal Hospital, they took my Chico in as soon as he walked in no hesitation. They grabbed him and was like oh poor baby. And they even set up a payment plan and comforted me. It was only $500. I did two payments of $250. SO DO NOT GO TO BRANDOS.Read Less

This vet will scam you. I went with my pet thinking i would get answers as to why he was not eating and had become so lethargic. the vet asked bogus questions, felt my pet a little, took his temp then said she couldn't tell what was wrong. only test could determine. we said yes to her exams and turns out everything came out negative meaning there was nothing wrong. after me and the vet not knowing what was wrong, she then tried selling us medication to i guess fix the unknown problem. i asked several questions to try and make my pets life a bit easier when returning home and she answered very rudely, rarely looking at me. i don't recommend going here there is so many other vets who actually care about you and your pet, who will actually help you and not just try to sell you and lure you into doing unnecessary things just to charge you and take your money.

I visited this animal hospital while my cat was not feeling well. It was my first time here and I was not pleased what so ever. I will not be returning. The vet was extremely rude. I asked questions as any concerned pet owner would and her responses were sarcastic and unhelpful. She answered as if I was stupid and as if I was suppose to already be an expert in cat anatomy. Which I'm clearly not that's why she's the vet not me. Over all she was not able to determine what it was my cat had after severe test but still tried to sell me medication. This made no sense to me. The vet was not friendly at all. Not a people person. Waste of money and time for absolutely the worst service. The receptionist was nice and more understanding.

She gave him a shot to ease his pain and then Monday when he crashed we took him to her. Even though she didn't think he was going to make it (yes doc I could tell) she was still contacting a specialist for us. He past then. The whole staff was so kind to us as we were historical. She hugged me and patted my back. She is a great Vet. I have never trusted a vet like I do her. She also gives great prices. You dont get vet care for free so stop that. Im looking everywhere to give her comments. This is actually my first time giving reviews as I saw it necessary for my baby boy to do him justice and other establishments we had to deal w this weekend during emergency.

Visited Brandos Animal Hospital for the first time this past Friday, July 24th, 2015. My friend's 14 yr old Chihuahua developed a medical condition which required urgent care. We called several places, but had no luck getting Chico in to be seen timely. We decided to give Brandos a try. Just drove in and inquired about Chico being seen. Although the staff was busy, they cheerfully worked Chico in to be seen. Within 30 minutes of arriving, the doctor treated Chico and relieved his pain and discomfort after a brief procedure. We were really impressed at the customer service displayed by the employees here. They work well together and treat their clients with courtesy and respect. The doctor was great. She's the owner and also the only Vet on duty. My friend told me that she was very attentive to Chico's needs and did not try to pressure her into any unnecessary services. We left there very happy that Chico had received prompt medical attention and also satisfied with what we felt was a very reasonable fee, considering that we came in without an appointment. Needless to say, my friend has decided to bring Chico back for all future health maintenance needs. I also have a dog and will be bringing him to Brandos for future checkups and vaccinations. I highly recommend Brandos, if you happen to live in the Hildebrand/Fredericksburg Rd area or beyond. These folks will treat your pets right. Read Less
