Loop 494 Animal Hospital

I just moved to Kingwood from another state and had gotten on Nextdoor to ask people about the seriousness of heartworm here. Someone on there by the name Chase had commented to give me some insight and also informed me they work at Loop 494. I had asked a bunch of questions so they messaged me directly which I appreciated them taking time out of their day to provide me as much info like pricing and what they offer there (like yearly injections). I was looking online and had a few vet clinics in mind but Chase made me confident in the level of care they offer so I chose to make an appointment for my 3 dogs to get tested for heartworm before putting them on prevention. I was also seeing another vet prior for one of my dog’s ear infection and pus for left eye and after going to the other place 3 times, they told me they didn’t know what was causing the pus but kept trying to push me to do the same testing that came back negative the first time. So I wanted a second opinion elsewhere. I came here and saw Dr. Bobby and after giving him a rundown on everything, he agreed it was unnecessary to repeat the same test. He had me go home and take a picture of the eyedrops I was giving to my dog and he prescribed something different for the eye and it’s made a huge difference for my dog. Also, during my appointment, Dr. Bobby gave me samples to take home for the heartworm prevention since I still had to wait for the results to come back and he wanted them protected ASAP - my dogs like to sunbathe and it’s hard to get them inside. I got the results back the very next day and gave them to my dogs right away which I’m so grateful they were offered to me instead of prolonging it another couple of days since you do need a prescription in order to get them. Dr. Bobby didn’t care about charging me for them, just that my babies are protected and safe. Not only did I have a great experience with Dr. Bobby, but after everything was said and done, the staff helped me bring all 3 dogs out to my car since my hands were full with the samples and paperwork. I have small, medium, and large dog and it was my first time taking all 3 to the vet without my husband to help so I really appreciated the extra hands getting them to my car. Overall, I’m extremely happy and will continue to come here for all 3 dogs and I’ll also be bringing in my cats in the future when it’s time for their checkups.

Pretty unprofessional veterinary clinic, staff swiping dog hair off of the couch into the air and all over the place with customers in close proximity. People at front desk seem to be nonverbal. Dr.dori didn’t give any diagnosis for my guinea pig, basically just a “give her this and move along”. A week later. Now I have a dying guinea pig that I have to try to nurture back to health all on my own…

Loop 494 is hands down the best animal hospital in the Northeast area. I have used them for 18 years and I drive 40 minutes from The Woodlands now to get specialty care for my dogs because the staff is wonderful and they don't nickel/dime me like so many vets do nowadays. Their veterinarians truly care about animals, and the Kingwood community is lucky to have them.

Dr. Dori has taken care of our pets for over 20 years. We completely trust in the knowledge and care she provides our furry family. The staff, technicians are always helpful and accommodating. I can't give an opinion on the other vets at Loop 494, but if your pet is cared for by Dr. Dori rest assured they are in good hands.

Couldn’t have asked for a better end of life experience. I was so nervous during the time leading up to the appointment and making my way there. But everyone made me feel calm and comfortable. Soft spoken staff during the process. Thank you

I moved to Loop 494 Animal Hospital after taking my beloved pets to another vetrinarian for over 20 years. I was worried about changing vets after all those years but the first time I walked in Loop 494 Animal Hospital I was impressedI brought my 14 year old Schnauzer and my new kitten into the office and we were treated like old friends. The kitten needed all his baby shots and his first checkup. My Schnauzer, who had only been seen by my old vet for her entire life, was relaxed. All went exceedingly well. I love that they keep me updated on medications and food items, especially those on sale. I am confident in their care. Everyone is kind and nurturing. A real gem of a Animal Hospital!

This Vet clinic needs to get in control of their schedule. Most of the time it is over an hour after the scheduled time to actually get to see someone. Then, once you get in a room you have to wait a long time in there. The doctors seem in a hurry when they finally come in, not giving the necessary attention. I get it, your prices are lower than most, so we as customers get to run in the machine of overworked doctors and assistants rushing to make the required money. I'll go to a place that charges more and gives their clients the respect that's fair.

My babies have been coming here since they were 2 months old, they are now turning 5 years old 🩷 i recommend this place to anyone, especially with small animals!! They’re always so welcoming and they take extremely good care of your babies. You guys will be in great hands here.
