Client Reviews

“We’ve had nothing but wonderful experiences at this vet clinic. Everyone we’ve ever dealt with has been kind, compassionate, and never rushed. We even adopted a cat through them who wasn’t the right fit for the El Gato Cat Café (which they work closely with), but she turned out to be the perfect fit for us! Thanks to her exposure to so many cats in a vet setting, she’s amazing with our other pets.”

“The staff of Richmond Ave Animal Hospital is so kind and gracious. The staff and doctors are why I travel 20 minutes to bring my fur babies to them and not a facility that is closer. Their compassion and care for animals is so sincere, and I always feel confident my kitties are in very good hands.”

 

—Tina B.

“I called needing a same-day appointment for one of my dogs to receive a Bordetella shot. The front desk personnel were professional and knowledgeable. They got me in quickly that afternoon. The doctor was very kind and clearly a dog lover. The dogs bonded with her immediately. The fees were reasonable.”

 

—Shelley G.

“I have been bringing my dogs (French Bulldogs) and my cat to Richmond Ave Animal Hospital for 3 years now, and they are true experts as well as very caring. All of the doctors, technicians, and front desk staff have always been professional, kind, and accommodating. Pricing is very competitive as well. I highly recommend them!”

 

—Karen P.

“Friendly and efficient staff! I’m always seen right at my appointment time, which I really appreciate. Scheduling an appointment is quick and easy, and the entire team is welcoming and professional. Highly recommend this veterinary clinic!”

 

—Rebeca S.

“From the receptionist in front to the attendants who take your pet back, and the wonderful doctors who diagnose and treat your pet, they are all welcoming, attentive, and very professional. We have been taking our black lab, Pearl, and long-haired dachshund, Minnie, to Richmond Avenue Animal Clinic for a combined over 20 years. We would never consider another veterinary facility.”

 

—Craig L.

“My Belgian Malinois was licking her stomach and paws incessantly, so I called Richmond Ave Animal Hospital at 8 a.m. on a Friday morning. Dr. Gallagher got back to me at about 11 am and told me to bring her right in. They did a skin test and gave her a shot, some cream, and antibiotic wipes to take home. Two days later, and she has stopped the licking. I cannot recommend them highly enough.”

 

—Donna T.

“Dr. Wilkie is the best vet in Houston! She has been caring for our dogs for the past 15 years, and we wouldn’t go anywhere else. The whole team at Richmond Avenue Animal Hospital is terrific!”

 

—Irene G.

“We used RAAH for our golden’s spay. They did a great job educating us on the procedure, being transparent with the price, and taking care of our pet. I can tell they are excellent at what they do based on how well our dog bounced back from the procedure. I would recommend them for anyone seeking a great vet that you can trust to do what is best for your pet.”

 

—Ryan O.

“This is a wonderfully compassionate and capable team, and they have cared for my mother’s little rescue chihuahua, Harry — now 17 years old — for as long as I can remember. When I took him there recently to board him for a few days while traveling, one of the women working there, Elida, kindly gave him a lovely sweater that her dog had outgrown, to keep him warm. She and the other veterinary professionals working there are fantastic, and we look forward to visiting them again soon!”
