Animal Health Centre of the Colony

The sign out front says «compassionate health care».It should say «uncompassionate health care»
I took my dog to this clinic because of a coupon. I was given an estimate for surgery to remove tumors on her leg. She was also treated for a chronic ear infection.
2 weeks after her ear drops ran out she had another bad infection. I took samples from her ears to the office on my way to work to get more meds. The vet their wouldn’t give me any ear drops with out seeing the dog.
I couldn’t be late for work so she had to suffer all day.
I called my old vet and she told me to stop by on my way home and she gave me the drops because she knew the history. no office visit required.
She also gave me an estimate to remove the tumors that was 150.00 less than that bunch at «uncompasssionate health care»
I apologize to Dr. Wild at the Colony Animal Clinic for letting a 10.00 coupon make me try another vet. I will never stray again.
The Colony Animal Clinic is on Paige rd. The office is not as new or fancy as the other but they truly are compassionate healthcare.

I just brought my little Kilo into this vet, sorta last minute. I was pretty sure our new (clawed) kitty scratched his eye. I frantically called around the area to see who could fit him in. (We just lost a kitty a few months ago, so I’m a little paranoid!). Most of the places I called wouldn’t even take a new client the same day. (Uh, weird!) So I called Animal Health Centre and they fit him in this afternoon. Plus it is very close to the casa!
I got there early (I know, I know, thank god I don’t have children!!!) and they got me right in and started checkin him out. No scratches on the eye, yay! But more than likely an infection, so they got him started on antibiotics. They printed me out a detailed invoice, plus gave me another print out on shot pricing and declawing for the little one. Very very affordable! (Compared to other vets I’d been to). The vet, Dr. Durham, was SO nice and SO thorough. He spent alot of time with us and asked questions and answered questions. He was SUPER. It’s just a small town vet, I believe it’s just himself and his tech. It was actually nice to not have a room full of other animals in the waiting room. But he was steadily taking patients, so I thought that was good.
Anyway, I’m VERY weird about doctors and vets, so I can’t believe my good fortune this time! My prior vet is waaaaay on the other side of Mesquite so we’ve been thinking of getting a closer vet anyway. Check tis vet out if you are in The Colony area. I’m so very pleased.
