My dog Lana chipped her tooth, and was referred to Texas Veterinary dental center by our veterinarian. Her first appointment was a consultation discussing treatment options, and throughly answering any of our questions. I was so impressed with the price transparency, we were sent home with a detailed cost breakdown of the options discussed during consultation. The day of Lana's procedure Dr. McCoy took the time to explain exactly what the day would look like for Lana, and answering any questions or concerns I had. This discussion took a lot of my fears away, because I knew exactly what was going on throughout the day. When picking up Lana, Dr. McCoy gave us detailed after care instructions, and let us know exactly what to expect after her procedure. I would highly recommend Texas veterinary dental center for any of your pets dental needs. It was very clear every single person at Texas Veterinary Dental Center really cared for our pet like it was their own. I'm so glad we chose to take Lana here, her recovery has been a breeze, and her mouth seems to be healing beautifully.

Took my dog to get his teeth checked out. Dr. McCoy and his staff were very professional and thorough in what was being done. Walked me through the process and completed the work quickly. Front desk staff was awesome also, very helpful in planning everything. Great experience

One of the most thorough, organized and professional facilities I've stepped foot in. The whole staff is friendly, knowledgeable and your fur baby is their #1 priority. Dr. McCoy takes a lot of time and care to explain everything and listen to your questions/concerns which is more than I can say for some of the human doctors I've encountered. Highly recommend this practice for your pet's dental needs.
