Southeast Animal Hospital

I was recommended by a friend and it was the best experience I’ve had. My little Chewy needed sedated grooming and everyone answered my questions and were very professional and the facility was clean. He went in all matted and came out looking like a show dog!!! ❤️I will definitely return and recommend!!

I have brought numerous dogs here over the years and not until recent that I have noticed that there seems to be a issue with not opening on time and a major issue that is easy to fix, they have no doctor in the clinic on Wednesdays, so if you show up in the morning at the post opening time just to wait 1 and a half hours for them to open for the staff to say we don't see patients on Wednesday. Hey that's a simple fix put that info on the door and on your web site

I want to be as objective as possible as I write this review. It has been almost four months since my cat died, so I think enough time has passed for me to process the situation. When I first moved to San Antonio, I chose Southeast Animal Hospital to be Aspen's clinic since I have family here who recommended them. When I would take him in for his regular check-ups and vaccinations, he received wonderful care, and I was always given so much time and patience while discussing said care. I took him in last November after his appetite had slowed significantly and he had started to lose weight. He was diagnosed with chronic kidney failure, which was unexpected for me given that he was only three years old, but I trusted these experienced vets who had previously given him loving care. Over the last few weeks of his life, I was probably calling or driving to the clinic every other day. Very few attempts at solutions were given, despite the prescribed medication not helping and the prescribed food not being eaten (along with almost anything else I would try to feed him). The last time I brought him in, I was assigned to a different veterinarian. At this point, she sympathetically told me that he likely only had a few days left. In a last-ditch effort to save his life, I reached out to his old veterinarian in College Station. She offered to look at his blood work, and immediately recommended I call a feline specialist who is also based here in San Antonio. But at this point, it was too late, and Aspen died in an emergency clinic before I could get him to that appointment. I am not blaming Southeast Animal Hospital for his death. But even long into hindsight, I do feel that he was not treated with the urgency that he needed when a serious problem arose. When his old vet was able to examine his blood work, she found abnormalities (not previously mentioned to me) that would have been very unusual for a cat with CKD, suggesting that something different may have been the underlying cause for his symptoms. Even if I had taken Aspen to an different clinic immediately, there's a chance that his outcome would have been the same. But that what-if is always going to stay with me, and I don't think I will ever be comfortable returning to this clinic with any new pets in the future.

Great doctors that take more of a conservative approach (read: cheaper) to solutions. I've taken my pets here for over 10 years, and never have I felt overcharged or pressured from the staff. UPDATE: still take all our pets here and love the staff and doctors.

My dog unfortunately got attacked and needed stitches. Called before hand to see if they would be able to give stitches and I was told to come in and we’ll be seen. When I got there I was told that the doctor would NOT be able to see us because it was 3:30 and they closed at 6! What a waste of time and thankfully my dog was not in serious need of medical attention. Overall would not recommend
