    I love Dr. Merrill and her team at Abrams Forest Veterinary. LaToya is always friendly and helpful at the reception desk, the cost for services are reasonable and you can tell everyone genuinely loves the animals who are treated there. I highly recommend this vet center if you need affordable care, friendly staff and committed, professional veterinary care for your furry companions.

    Recently moved from Phoenix, AZ and had to find our doggies a new veterinarian. Thankfully, we came across Abrams Forest. Dr Meyers is absolutely amazing. Answering the million questions I may have, calling us after a few days to check up on the doggies, and even calling us back just from making an appointment to check up on the dogs himself The staff is super nice and every time I have a question, and Dr Meyers isn't there, they make sure he gets the message and he calls back! I've been to others vets, but not one this.

    This past Friday 07-30-21 my puppy Wyatt had his last puppy visit. As soon as we walked into the lobby we were greeted and told wyatt would be seen shortly. Wyatt jumps in the arms of the employees and just loves on them. It is comforting knowing Wyatt is in such good care. They are just the most professional and friendliest staff you would ever meet. sincerely, manny and Wyatt

    I moved to Dallas about 4 years ago and started bringing both my dogs to Abrams Forest. They are always incredibly kind and helpful. My Labrador came to them scared and unwilling, but they were patient and have helped him become a social butterfly. This past weekend, my Frenchie had a very scary situation and they took her in and saved her life after a heat stroke. I can't speak highly enough of the team they have there and the love they show to all the pets in their care.

    I had a great experience at Abrams Forest Vet clinic. This was my first time visiting AFVC, and I arrived 30 min before closing with my 4yr old Pug, Oslo. I could tell he was not feeling well but I was worried that we would be rushed and not closely cared for. I was wrong. The receptionist Stacy, the Vet Tech-Terry and Dr Allison Merrill were outstanding! Dr Merrill was so sweet and caring, she got down on the floor with Oslo, watched him walk around the entire clinic, did some examinations and ultimately gave him a clean bill of health. I was not not treated like a new patient, they made me feel more like an old friend. Dr Merrill and all of these wonderful people genuinely care about the pets they see. I highly recommend Dr Allison Merrill. I will be coming here regularly with all my p. Thank you all SO MUCH!

    I just recently moved to Dallas so I didn't know what vet clinics were recommended or not. My dog Motley got really sick last night and couldn't walk. So this morning my roommate recommended I go here. Best decision ever. Dr. Myers took care of her, made sure she was comfortable (since she has a habit of growling at people), very helpful at telling me what was wrong, clear instructions. Wasn't left in the room for very long by myself during the tests that were made. Comfortable and clean setting, staff was very friendly especially since I was frazzled the whole time. Thank you again!

    I can't say enough good things about Abrams Forest Veterinary Clinic. My pups and I are so happy we found Dr. Taylor and Dr. Stowe. For the first time, my 8-year old had her teeth cleaned yesterday, and they are 100% white. I am so pleased and set an appointment for my second little guy to get his teeth cleaned too.

    Saying good bye to Rose

    See all

    After months of searching for the right kind of veterinary care for my senior "rescue" pup Rocky, I…read morefinally found what we needed at HEAL Veterinary Hospital and it was absolutely worth the effort and wait! As context, Rocky has been through a lot over the past year (ACL injury, Hypothyroidism flare ups, Allergy issues, Skin rash, Eye surgery, Ear infections, Tracheal collapse). In spite of all this, Rocky has remained a happy, sweet fur baby that is a "love magnet" wherever he goes :-). But, after months of vet visits, pokes, and prodding...we were both exhausted and needed a different path. My primary vet and I aligned that it was time to bring in specialty expertise and I'm so glad we did. From the moment we arrived at HEAL, I could tell this experience would be different. The entire staff is extremely kind and supportive, and Dr. Martinson is truly a gem--warm, intuitive, and incredibly thorough. She took the time to fully understand Rocky's health journey, and while a prior vet even suggested a wheelchair...I know my boy and he isn't there yet. Yes, he's aging, but it's not time for wheelchairs, heavy meds, or giving up. Dr. Martinson listened and agreed. Together we aligned on a holistic care plan that prioritizes Rocky's quality of life. No extreme interventions. Just thoughtful, expert care designed around what's best for him. Yes, the initial visit takes a lot of time, the "pre-booking" Questionnaire is extensive, and the services aren't cheap. But for me and Rocky, it was time and money well spent. This was the most detailed pet evaluation I've ever experienced and after months of stress, I finally saw Rocky relax. HEAL's Fear Free approach definitely works and I'm looking forward to a great partnership with Dr. Martinson and the entire team. And, more importantly, giving Rocky a chance to feel like himself again. If you're looking for thoughtful, compassionate, and expert-level care, I highly recommend HEAL. Wishing all our furry friends comfort and care. Happy Healing!

    Pet Owners Beware: After three years as a loyal ReadyVet client, my dog was left in a cage for over…read morefive hours with no call, no update, and no explanation. When I asked why, they blamed me for following their own instructions and then terminated me as a client. The full story is shocking. I've trusted ReadyVet with my dog, Finn, for years, and always had great experiences with Dr. Ben. That trust ended after Finn's recent dental appointment. His procedure was scheduled for 8 a.m. I dropped him off on time and called around 1 p.m., only to learn his dental was just starting. Finn, who they know has anxiety, had been sitting in a cage for over five hours with no communication. They later claimed the delay was because I fed him, but I gave him a smaller-than-normal portion of food so he could take the trazodone they prescribed. No one ever said this would delay his care for hours. Looking back, it's clear the clinic was overbooked. They were running a 15% off dental promotion (see image attached) and had "fit me in" with another vet because my usual doctor, Dr. Ben, was fully booked for dentals until next month. I later learned they had four dentals that day. It's hard not to see the problem as a scheduling issue, not a medical one. When I raised my concerns, management accused me of being disrespectful and terminated me as a client. It was an incredibly disappointing end to what had been a positive relationship. Dr. Ben has always been wonderful and this situation had nothing to do with him. My issue is entirely with how the office is managed; poor communication, lack of transparency, and zero accountability. If you're considering ReadyVet, ask how many procedures they're booking that day and who will actually be doing them.

I booked with ReadiVet and they were able to come out, check on him, and take a blood sample.

Will definitely be using them from here on out!

We had never dropped Tate off by himself for an appointment at a Vet before. Always stayed while vet did examination/shots. I can only imagine how confusing all of the new covid protocols are for pets and owners. Metro has taken care of Tate and treated him and us (his overly protective dads) very kindly. And with compassion. The communication at metro was lacking a little at the beginning but they have more than made up for it. We lost (Zero) about 4 years ago after a friends, much larger, dog bit him dog on the head. Zero was only 5 when it happened. We got Tate shortly after he had to put Zero down. Unfortunately because of that we are a bit overly protective with him. We had gone to Metro a couple times in the past and never had an issue. The 2 previous visits, years ago, were great.

I cut the prescribed dose in half and gave him also not every day how that doctor said, but every other day, and still he felt bad. She prescribed him 2.5 mg twice a day. Then started to give him 2.5 once a day, the 2.5 mg every second day. But he felt worse and worse. Before that treatment Walter would run occasionally around a house, like all cats do. But not anymore after that deadly treatment. In March 2025 Walter passed away.
