Huebner Oaks Veterinary Hospital

We have been going to Vital Pet Huebner Oaks for a couple of years now. My basset Elvis loves the staff and our veterinarian Dr. Leckey. The only issue that I've had is the use of the online pharmacy which has sent his heartworm medication either late or to the wrong address. Read Less

Dr. Zieben is a remarkable doctor and answers my questions honestly. If I haven't made an appt., I will typically drop off my cat in the morning to have him/her examined as time allows. I fill out a form to say what the problem is, and Dr. Z often calls me to get more insight as to what I am noticing. I have been to many vet offices but this clinic has the best staff and doctors by far and the MOST reliable diagnoses. That puts me at ease knowing my loved ones are in great hands. Read Less

Dr. Wright and the crew at Huebner Oaks veterinarian clinic exceed my expectations. Several months ago we started the process to move and ship or 2 blue heelers to Fiji. Dr. Wright walked us through the process with professionalism. We received timely phone calls and courteous help from the staff in regards to all of our appointments. The process through the USDA and Fiji's own regulations are not cheap, though our four legged family members deserve it from us. We would absolutely recommend Dr. Wright and her staff. **Update 4 years on, and now in Southeast Asia, we still use Dr Wright as the standard by which we measure our vet care. Read Less

Got a handwritten note from them today and it was very sweet. I've done business with other vets that did not show the same warmth or excellence that this office provides. Am a fan! Please do yourself and your pets a great service and see them if you need a great veterinary clinic! 😁😎 Oroville the exce Read Less

The staff are friendly and helpful. The doctors are very professional and informative. I can easily always stop in on my way home and pick up my dog's medication. And now it looks like they're going to start offering doggy day care! That's so cool cuz there aren't a lot of options like that in this part of town! Read Less

Excellent as always, they worked me (my kitty) in the same day when I wasn't even sure if he was sick or just pouting! They always treat me just like I am taking my children to the pediatrician! They truly love what they do and it shows in everything they do. Read Less

It was the first vet visit for my little puppy and I appreciated the kindness and professional manner in which we were treated. John was very thorough and gave me lots of information to read and take home. Dr. Sanders is wonderful. I will continue to come to this clinic and see Dr. Sanders. Read Less

I have been taking my dogs to Huebner Oaks for over 20 years and have never been disappointed with the care and support that I have received there. I would recommend them to anyone in the San Antonio area. I live by Sea World, but go to Huebner Oaks because of the caring doctors and staff. They are the best!! Read Less

These people are awesome. I've been with them for 11 years, and have been impressed by the consistent quality care.  My previous vet was surgery-happy.  Every problem required surgery and later proved often unrequired.  Not here, in 11 years not one of my 5 cats have needed surgery, Dr. Zieben is serious about quality and being thorough in his exams prior to making a diagnosis.  What a refreshing change!  And, I could not be happier with his staff.  They have become friends and they care about my pets.  I'm not just another client and you will not be either.

Marc Zeiben is the best veterinarian in San Antonio! Smart, caring, and the very best diagnostician and surgeon! We are so grateful for his many years of dedicated service to our beloved pets (and to us!) Read Less

They are very thorough and cheerful and loving on my dog Lucky. They make him and I feel very special. They always look through all records and make sure everything is up-to-date and I know he is in the very best of care. Even though he often gets shots when he is there, he can't wait to get out of the car when he arrives, as they "love on him." We're very lucky to have such an excellent veterinary facility in our neighborhood. Read Less

This veterinary office is very reasonably priced, especially when compared to other vets in San Antonio. The doctors are knowledgable and compassionate and the staff is always on top of their task. Easy to schedule with and accommodating for ordering medications. Happy to have found a good vet in San Antonio. Read Less

We moved right down the road from this vet clinic and from what we saw in online reviews we thought we had lucked out being so close to a decent veterinarian. We were SO wrong...We had one annual check up with Dr. Leckey who was nice and seemed to be knowledgeable, however she mentioned that to fill our prescriptions we would have to use their website. We've done this before, most vet clinics function this way. We attempted to use the website but ran into trouble because our prescription had been written incorrectly, so I called and the receptionists were completely useless and had no idea how to address any part of the problem. Not only were they not helpful, they were not the nicest and they forgot inform the Dr to rewrite our prescriptions or to call me back. The front desk staff completely dropped the ball in every way. A while later one of our dogs had an emergency situation and even though we were not impressed with Huebner Oaks on our first visit, we gave them another chance because we needed urgent care. I made an appointment waited for over an hour to see the Dr. I was alright with it because I was thankful to get an appointment on such short notice, however in total I spent THREE HOURS at the clinic before finally being able to leave. That's just ridiculous. Part of what took so long was that I was told (after having to ask what the hold up was, of course, because the front staff wouldn't never take it upon themselves to have the decency of informing patients on what is going on) that the computer system was down. Mind you, every time we have called to schedule or refill medication the computer system has somehow been "down". So instead of giving me a run down of what I will owe they said they would mail me a bill and asked for my phone number. The next day my husband gets a phone call (why even ask for my phone number if you're going to call another number anyways???) asking for payment of nearly $500! They still could not provide a break down of any specific costs and were rudely demanding payment because they claimed I had "left without paying" even though they told me to go ahead and leave and a bill would be mailed. When I called back and got a rundown of how in the world a simple appointment added up to $500 I was shocked to find that the medications they sent me home with were unnecessary and simply "precautionary", non refundable, and incredibly expensive. What the hell?!?!? When I tried to figure out what had happened and how such a major piece of information was completely left out the receptionist (not surprisingly) had no freaking clue how to answer a single question or who to ask or how to do any part of her job. She told me she would call me back with information and asked for my phone number again. Days passed and no one called me back, when I followed up I realized this was due to the receptionist never even attempting to find answers or resolve the issue in any way. I immediately brought back the unused and unopened medication and demanded a refund since I was never told of any costs associated with the prescriptions or that they were not necessary and was told they would refund me "as a favor". It's not doing me a "favor" to rip me off, to allow me to leave without being told of what I owe and then accusing me of not paying, and to not explain what any of the medications are or that they are not necessary. After all was said and done it took me weeks to get my refund and every step of the way I've had to call, remind them of the situation, and follow up with multiple employees because none of them are able to complete a task or show any regard for providing professional or decent service to their customers. If a clinic has such little regard for the kind of lazy, incompetent, and unprofessional staff they choose to employ they clearly have even less regard and concern for the patients having to deal with those employees. It is unacceptable and extremely disappointing and frustrating to have to deal with such unnecessary bullshit simply because someone can't follow through or do their job. I will never use this clinic again and will never recommend them to anyone who values their own time or money or has any concern for their pets. Any clinic that cannot function professionally cannot provide quality care for you or your pets. Read Less

After driving for 6 hrs for a temporary move, our English Bulldog got anxious, overheated and suddenly went into respiratory distress on a hot day while we were getting settled. While heading towards the only pet ED the phone could find, we saw the sign and stopped. Thank God for them!!! They saved our beautiful boy without even hesitating. They took our walkin emergency as complete strangers with extraordinary care and kindness. THANK YOU!!! Read Less

Brought myvsick kitty in. Kitty was dehydrated. Before she was seen by a doctor the tech. wanted to do a feline Aids/Lukemia test. I wanted the Doctor to see her first. Then when the Dr. Wanted to do the test i declined. I only wanted her cared for. She was dehydrated. The doctor told me in a very loud way"i didnt know what ibwas talking about"and walked out the room and slammed the door. I was speachless, i picked up my cat and brought her to Becker Hosp where she was kept overnight to replace the fluids she needed and ti be syringe fed 3 times a day to allow her to get string. Imagine my suprise whwn the doctor diagnosed her as dehydrated. Anyone bringing their pets to this wacko gets what they get! Poor ass service! Read Less

My 7 month old puppy got very I'll. I brought him in early one morning and my poor puppy had it coming out of both ends. The staff was quick to get our paperwork and file ready, as well as getting my puppy taking care of. We weren't really sure what he ate, but Dr. Leckie really added a personal touch by walking me through the process step-by-step and by educating me as we went. She showed a lot of concern while sharing her expertise, and I felt as if she and her staff treated my puppy like he was one of theirs! I've unfortunately had a bad experience with another vet where they were very impersonal and insensitive, so it's great to come to a vet like Dr. Leckie and her staff! Read Less

I can't say enough about this Clinic and staff!  Wonderful experience and they took such excellent care of my Kiki Diva!  If you have a fur baby and need a clinic...I recommend these guys with all my Heart!  Dr. Z and his tech John were thorough, kind and so helpful.  Thank you for such a Great experience!

My family has been taking our pets to this clinic for years. Each and every visit has been the same; nothing but excellent. The doctors and staff are committed, compasionate, and truly show their passion for animals through their actions. Thank you Huebner Oaks for being there through the good and bad. Read Less

I didn't want to write this review until we had taken our dog at least a few times. But we are very happy with this place! We have a male boxer that we took in when he was already 5 years old. The previous owners fed and provided him shelter, but never really routinely kept up with his shots or health or anything and didn't really socialize him to other dogs or people too much except for immediately family. So our dog was very timid and on guard when we took him in and we've put a lot of work into socializing and doing activities with others. It was something that has been very challenging and to be honest something we were scared of because we didn't want people thinking he was mean or turn the other direction when they saw him. I say all this because when we took him to this place, we were terrified and had no idea what to expect. I WAS BLOWN AWAY! They were amazing with him and kept us involved every step. These people showed compassion, confidence, competence, and love as if it were their own family member. They took the time to get to know us and our dog before doing anything and established a great trusting relationship with our dog and us. When we take him now, we have piece of mind and our dog feels comfortable there and not scared. You know they love what they do when they make all the cute sounds/noises and act silly with your dog like we do when we're at home :)Read Less

Our French Bulldog, Henr, was hospitalized for four days here. The staff, nurses and especially the veterinarian were great.! They kept us up to date on Henri's condition. We felt secure in knowing that he was being well cared for. Henr came home with a clean bill of health. Thanks to all at Town and Country Veterinary Hospital for everything.!!! Read Less

Dr. Zieben is Amazing. Words cannot describe. I first went to him 23 years ago when he first started his practice. I'm on my 3rd pup now & I since unexpectedly had to move to Austin, Tx almost 3 years ago & I CANNOT leave him. Dr. Zieben is compassionate, thorough, a true professional in his career of choice and I have seen him grow into it. I respect & completely trust him & will refer him to everybody who needs a vet. If you read this, tell him I sent you. You will NOT be disappointed.  Sincerely, Carol Read Less

I can honestly say that they are like family and they treat our pets with as much love as we do. They are so compationate and you can tell that they love their job. I recommend this veterinary hospital to everyone that has a pet they care for. Great job you guys especially you Kelly!Read Less

I live across the street and relied on Yelp reviews to pick a new Vet and this place definitely deserves all of the 5 star reviews! I took my dog (Phoebe) here for the free first exam and it was great experience. Dr. Z and all of the staff are so helpful and friendly. I think Phoebe is actually looking forward to her next visit! Read Less

We have been taking our dogs Chaplin, George, Xena and Maggie here for going on almost 15 years and they always receive the best care. Dr Zieben always treats are dogs like family and the staff is all awesome to work with. They always provide the best options for our dogs. Highly recommend. Read Less

Wonderful caring staff and doctors!!!! They have been taking great care of all my  dogs for the past 30 years. Never had a bad experience, always understand and genuinely care for you and your pet. I would never take my furry four legged family members anywhere else. Dr Zieben always takes his time to explain everything and follows up on any situation that needs extra attention. Read Less

My Niece told me about this place. I have been bring My Woofie since he was 8 weeks old n he is now going to b 8 yrs old n June. The staff n doctors are wonderful. They treat Woofie as if he was their own. Thank You for all You do!!! Read Less

I just recently moved to San Antonio and adopted a puppy from ACS. After searching for a vet and reading reviews online, I decided to make an appointment here. From the girls at the front desk, to the vet technicians, and Doctor I was so satisfied. They were all so welcoming and lovable towards my puppy. They are great at making you and your pet feel taken care of. I'm so happy I chose this vet and highly recommend it to all! Read Less

I am staying.....Had to use this vet clinic on emergency basis.  I am now moving all my pets here and having my family move their pets here also.  Very accommodating hours and open on Saturday also.  They are quick to assist friendly and most important they are able to help with diagnosis and treatment efficiently.  The one vet, Zieben, even gave me his cellphone to stay in touch overnight if I needed instruction while taking care of post op canine client.  I need help when I need help to take care of my pets.  They get it and I feel like they care about my peace of mind.

I recommend this clinic to everyone because you will receive the absolute best of medical care for your pets. Thank you Huebner Oaks Vet for being awesome!Read Less

I loved this place. I have been looking for a great vet for my dogs and this is the place to go. Great service, they took me in right away and they took care of my baby like if it was their own. Will definitely make them my dogs vet clinic. Read Less

All I can say is these people blew me away with their amazing service and how much they cared for my pet. There was little to no wait when we arrived. They thoroughly examined my pet and gave him what he needed. They were kind to him and very polite to me, as well, breaking down the problems he had and what we needed to do to care for them. What really blew me away was the fact that he went in his crate, and they took him into the back to clean him and the crate up before giving him back to me - something I have never seen other vets care to do. These people are awesome and I don't want to go anywhere else.Read Less

I took my 2 year old Chiweenie in for a general checkup and a vaccination update today and was blown away by the service we received. Mind you, I had never been here before and had only seen it in passing while driving. The staff were exceptionally kind and helpful, answered every question I had and offered great advice and tips. They treated my dog so gentle and gave him treats and love the entire time. On top of that, the prices were fantastic and the entire building was clean and adorable. If I wasn't moving out of state, I would make them my regular veterinarian clinic. Read Less

Dr. Lauren Leckie is the reason I started going to Huebner Oaks Vet Hospital. When I found out that both of my elderly dogs were in their last days I was sent to her and with her sound advice she kept them comfortable. alive and with us for a little over a year. I went another year with no dogs until this past April we purchased 2 dachshund puppies. She is now our vet for those two precious babies and will hopefully be their vet for life. Staff is wonderful, helpful and personable. I would recommend Huebner Oaks Veterinary Hospital to anyone looking for superior service.Read Less

I give this place three stars because the previous times we have been there we got good service ... But because of this one instance the stars got lowered. Here is what happened: our original doctor (Dr. Lucky) was off that day but I had an important question about my cat so the front desk said another doctor there would give me a call back. However they never called me back to answer my question! Nice to know that if Dr. Lucky isn't there then my baby wouldn't be taken care of! Read Less

I had a great experience here. My beagle had been coughing up phlegm for a couple of days and it was getting worse so I decided to take her in. They were able to get me in right away and they took excellent care of her. It was the most thorough physical assessment my dog has ever had. The staff was friendly and knowledge. The vet worked in a caring and compassionate manner as well. He said I had a great little dog and I felt like he really cares about her well being.We've moved around quite a bit due to my job so we've seen a lot of different vets but this was our best vet experience yet!
