I was told new owners required YEARLY bloodwork now. I called my old out of state vet, where we are moving to, and they still allow waivers, but I had already had my dogs check up, and vaccination done, so to avoid having to repeat an office call, I had to let them draw the blood to get the medication. Guess what, it was negative, but just away for them to squeeze another $58 out of me. This office is part of the problem here in town, people can't afford to be responsible pet owners, the prices are getting to high. They clearly haven't spent money on the office space, it's really just a dumpy little tiny place. Makes me sad that the care is now just how can we grab money, not being happy the dog is being well taken care of. We see a big difference in the time we started there, new owners seem very corporate minded.

We took our cat to this vet because we were lead to believe he was a good one. He gave him, our…read morecat, pills and said we needed to change his diet. Ok we did, bought the expensive vet only pet food and went on about our lives. There was little to no improvement. Talk to the vet again. Obviously we've done something wrong our cat is about to die without hundreds and hundreds of dollars worth of surgery. We obviously cannot pay all of that up front. Payment plans? Laughed at. "We do not do payment plans." Basically left with the choice, give us your cat or watch him die. We did not want him to die. Signed papers, "tech" lady said we would be able to adopt him back after everything was said and done. They put him up for adoption, we called and were the first ones to do so, "Oh you'll have to speak with the vet." Wait. 3 hours later our cat has been adopted out to someone else. OK fine. I leave a comment on the post, "To whomever is adopting Druss Druss please know he hates dogs and children, tolerates other cats (he took one cats eye) prefers to sleep on your head and must be the center of your world at all times. He was my friends emotional support animal when he got sick the vet doesn't do payment plans so he was taken. I had hoped to adopt him and keep him with me because at least it would be someone he knew and liked, he even bonded with one of my cats who is now struggling with a depression. I hope whoever is taking him will actually love him and understand that he was and will forever be someone's baby." Nothing rude, vulgar, no cussing. They kept deleting it. They went so far as to block me from the page like I had actually done something to them. So in review, do not trust this vet with your pet, ever. It's all about how to tun a buck. Laughs at the poor and does not care about your pets. Do yourself and your fur babies a favor and pass this place up.

Beware! Dr Pool gave my dog a steroid shot, WITHOUT consulting me (the owner) FIRST!!! That was…read moreabout 2 yrs ago. The SAME dog has always has had issues itching and scratching for years. It was ME, who finally figured out he has ALLERGIES! Got Apoquel from Chewy around $88 dollars a couple months ago. Monday 12-15-2025, I took my dog to Ward animal to have him checked out to get a prescription for 6-12 months. Well, since Ward had approved apoquel from Chewy, she said they didn't need to see him even though we both were there now! Chewy has sent several Faxes for approval by POOL! A 30 supply of Apoquel 16 mg from Ward is $120. Today, she charged me $20 for POOL to send Chewy his approval. I did find another Vet. For 100 tablets of Apoquel 16mg cost me, $241, office visit $58, Miconahex+Triz 16oz $36 = $335 So, for JUST, a 100 tablets of Apoquel 16mg from Ward animal was going to COST ME $390!!!!!!!!! That's without a office visit, and without a 16oz bottle of Miconahex+Triz medicated shampoo. I never did think dr pool was truly there in having any kind of A REAL RELATIONSHIP with clients. Dr pool is there to PAD THAT POCKET OF HIS. Dr Ward sold his business to dr pool. I had overheard other clients, and I believe they too were taken by lack of concern. Today, my/our new Vet, SPENT THE WHOLE TIME IN THE ROOM WITH ME AND MY DOG. When a dr takes your pet away every time, taking them into the back, not spending time with you, YOU NEED TO MOVE ON!!!!!! There's been other instances as well. I adding everything will make some stop reading the review. GOD'S WITNESS... I have now CUT ALL TIES WITH WARD. Our 4 dogs and 7 cats have found a new home! Thank God!

I've used Ward regularly for a little over a year now, visiting a total of 11 times between my…read morethree pets (13 times if you include foster kittens). These visits have ranged from annual exams, to sick visits, to a spay, etc. and I can firmly say that I will *never* be back after my visit today. My 15-30 minute visit turned into a 2 hour frustrating situation due to vet incompetence. My most recent appointment was my first time meeting Dr. Josh Pool and he was absolutely terrible. He wouldn't prescribe my dog's anxiety meds, that he's been on for over 3 years, inferring that I would abuse the drugs and threaten his license. There's not even a way to abuse prozac, it's a slow release drug that takes about a month to even start working and is one of the most prescribed psych drugs in the world (degree in psych and biology, have worked in vet med). He mentioned other alternatives so I listed what I've tried before, as my dog is 7 and we've tried just about everything. He then said my dog was over medicated and suffering because he also gets trazodone for high stress situations/ as needed. He refused to prescribe trazodone and only prescribed 20mg prozac (when my dog is currently on 40mg) after going back and forth for 10 minutes. Even after I asked for other alternatives for him to prescribe like just trazodone or gabapentin- he refused. I showed records going back multiple years of my dog's severe anxiety and how prozac daily and trazodone when needed have helped him but he continued to infer I would abuse the drugs. He also mentioned that my dog needed a behaviorist .... when a behaviorist was the one in the first place to recommend prozac! I then was asking for a new cyst/ tumor on my dogs head to be aspirated; fine needle aspirates are one of the most common ways to see if a lump is cancerous or not, and it's very easy to do. The Dr refused to do it and said it was just "an old dog bump". I pushed again because it came on very fast and aggressive. The tech then tells me that the dr doesn't know how to do the procedure and doesn't know how to read the results under the microscope. I was actually flabbergasted that a vet can't do one of the easiest and most common skin cytologies in modern vet med. Of course this was followed by a $300-500 estimate to do an anesthetized biopsy and removal. Guess that beats the $30-50 they'd get for a FNA. Overall, I'm in the process of reporting them to the Texas vet med board. They kept my highly anxious and constantly crying dog in the back for an hour and a half (literally 90 minutes, I kept track) just tied up and waiting, panicking. They refused to prescribe him the correct meds. They apparently don't have knowledge of very basic medical procedures. They refused to comp, discount, or take off anything after everything that went wrong on their end during the visit. Im not even convinced they did the exam or gave him the heart worm prevention he needs, as they were also arguing with me about even giving him the injection despite his negative hwt. They inferred I abuse drugs. and the vet especially seems to get angry and mean when he's questioned. There's significantly more I could add but this is already long enough. Just stay away if you value your sanity, your wallet, or if you have a very basic sense of vet med to hold them accountable

I am extremely disappointed with Angelina Animal Hospital…read more My 2-year-old dog has been suffering from worsening vomiting and bloody diarrhea for the last couple of days, and tonight it became much worse. Because your website clearly states that you offer 24/7 emergency services, I called expecting at the very least some level of urgency, compassion, or guidance. Instead, I was essentially told "good luck." When a pet owner is scared, desperate, and trying to get help for an animal in pain, that kind of response is incredibly unprofessional and completely lacking in empathy. If a hospital advertises emergency availability, there should be a reliable system in place to either provide care or direct pet owners to immediate help -- not dismiss them in one of the most stressful moments possible. I understand emergencies can be busy, but the total lack of concern for my dog's condition was unacceptable. No pet owner should be left feeling abandoned when their animal is sick and actively suffering. I see why there rating is so low! This place does not seem legit! Good luck Angelina County! What's worse is I was 10 minutes from the establishment and started heading that way once the person on the phone told me that they were talking to their supervisor about meeting me arrived on site and seeing people inside the building. And she told me basically good luck that they couldn't help me. If possible, I would leave a "0" star! After reading the other "0" stars I see an astonishing pattern here. They do not offer 24 hour service! Something needs to be done about this place. Like it needs to go out of business sooner than later.

I had in depth questions on the ongoing care that flustered the so called assistants Vet tech by title only no certification. So the belly ached to the vet about my questions what it was is that i called them out on their incompetence so the Vet finally saw me not to talk about the puppy or the ongoing care BUT that if i am challenging their care I could go elsewhere--after paying 1100 i asked for a copy of vet notes and the care given over two days they charged me $25 for 4 page copy - piss poor customer interface- incompetence - and fabrications.
