This place is beyond amazing!!! In the past year and a half, I've had to face the incredibly difficult decisions to put down two of my beloved dogs. The first sweet girl, who had been with me for 12 wonderful years, had to be laid to rest due to old age and becoming bed ridden. The second little princess, who brought so much joy into my life for 11 amazing years, battled bladder cancer. During these heartbreaking times, the staff at Oak Ridge Animal Clinic were nothing short of extraordinary. Their compassion and kindness made an unbearable process feel a bit more bearable. They treated my dogs with the utmost dignity and care, and their empathy and professionalism provided me with immense comfort and support. I am profoundly grateful for their care and cannot recommend them highly enough for all your pet needs. Thank you, Oak Ridge Animal Clinic, for making such tough experiences a little bit easier and for being there when we needed you the most!! read more

This clinic uses the Merck NOBIVAC NXT experimental self-amplifying mRNA rabies shot. Not tested but most likely going to shed on to the humans near them with unknown side effect. There are three (3) other Rabies vaccine types that have been around a long time with real dead virus, not new mRNA technology with no research or experience to back up its safe and effectiveness? The Oak Ridge Animal clinic front desk person is nice, but the VET Dr. was arrogant and was clearly angry when questioned about the use of this Merck brand Rabies shot and was quick to say it was state law.... it aint State law to select a new technology rabies vaccine but their choice. There are at least six other options available. This Vet had no solution other than telling me they would not do the Neuter without this shot. That was the end of that. Made my decision to move on quicky easy! Thank you, Oak Ridge Animal Clinic, for driving a customer away. I took this experience as a lesson as a consumer to do my research and make MY choice on where to trust my Shiba Inu puppy. The puppy has no choice so its my job to try to make a decision with the least amount of risk. This VET was no help in that effort. I was able to find another nearby VET who was very open and transparent and willing to discuss options. What a refreshing difference. Now I have a place to go for VET Service. read more

My personal relationship with ORAC began in the 90's with my parents bringing my childhood puppers to a particular vet tech they had there. I contacted the vet this morning to schedule an appt. Was told $82 for the exam with the clause that the vet may or may not charge for the exam. Confused by that statement I asked for a further explanation of this. Apon explanation I advised that it didn't sound right, and proclaimed that there may be a misunderstanding as what you just said sounds like a scam. I paraphrased what I thought she MIGHT be trying to explain as: During the exam if it's determined Euthanasia is the right move or in the best interest of the animal we won't charge, however if a viable path to vitality was determined an exam fee would be collected. She stated that was NOT how it worked - our policy requires all animals to be examined annually. Advising they would have to perform the exam to determine if an exam would be needed for the Euthanasia procedure. She again advised it's up to the vet. I asked if I could speak to vet to find out, and she advised I was speaking with the vet. The conversation then devolved to someone saying 'our policy' instead of reaching an alternative path or resource with the animal's quality of life in question. Nice job showing those true colors; malice or ignorance? Either way it's the quiet part out loud. Because if you lived down here instead of the soap box your standing on, you'd already have an alternative path to advise in euthanasia situations where yours isn't the right option but the soul in question is still in need, it's called compassion, critical-thinking and empathy - it allows you to solve things that benefit those other than yourself. My good boy is the sweetest boy, he doesn't deserve an old boy's pain because he's a got a poor man with some limitations, this isn't the first time my interactions with you left me feeling either mislead or made me feel like a pariah. I remember a story about a dentist that would check your blood pressure, swipe your card from the chair, then show you their written policy of not conducting the procedure if your BP is in a given range while ushering you out the door. Now I've got a similar story for the water cooler when something like that comes up. My connection to ORAC dates back 60+ years. Yes, I know they haven't been around THAT long but hear me out. The clinic my grandparents took their pets to in the 60's and 70's recommended a vet practicing in the Conroe area when they built in the Rayford Rd. area in the late 70's. This vet eventually recommended a vet tech at ORAC sometime in the 90's. It's quite an old torch that's been passed down and around, and today I'm putting it out and wanted to alert you, citing todays interaction as the final straw. read more

Loving and caring people with my pets best interest at heart. Willing to work with me in order to get what's best for my pet and purse.

We've been using this place for 15 years and have always been happy with the care given to our pets. But recently there has been a massive change in staff. Resulting in less attention to a long term health issue for any pet. They can read a chart, but that chart doesn't tell the whole story. Each pet has individual needs. Why such a big turnover? We no longer have the long term relationships with the staff, since everyone is different. read more

I took my dog there Tuesday, July 15, with ear scratching a sore on his paw. Of course they prescribed every medicine they possible could. 2 days later my poor baby wont eat. scratching his ears more than he was when I brought him in. As far as his paw I cant even touch it without him whimpering and pulling back. He hasn't eaten in 2 days. When I called them they said I could bring him in at the cost of an additional 65.00. Said i would be taking the vets time. My thoughts, why wasn't he diagnosed right the first time instead of throwing a bunch of expensive medicine at him. Believe me it was expensive!! Dr Ammons is only about the money. Don't make the mistake I did. She is useless and does not have the best interest of your pets, only money. Now I'm stuck with having to take my fur baby somewhere else. I'll repost and tell everyone what the correct diagnosis is. read more

This clinic has been nothing but nice over the years. We've had two older dogs that unfortunately have had to go to the other side within the past year. Today our Lulu had to leave us. This clinic makes one of your worst days better with how much they care and how much they make that process easy and reassuring for you. I honestly won't go anyplace other than here for the care of my last dog because their doctors are nice and care all the way to the front desk attendants. If you want a vet and staff that actually show love to your pet come here. read more

The check-in process was quick and easy, the lobby is big so you're not too cramped or feel like you're right on top of other customers. The pricing seems relevant to other local clinics, if not a little better. The clinic is somewhat hidden in a strip center just off i45, and the strip center is somewhat rundown, but the inside is well-maintained. I had an appointment at 11:15am and showed up about 15 minutes early and they took my dog back early, so that's always nice. The techs and people who work here seem knowledgeable and were sweet to my pet. I recommend these guys if you're looking for a vet for your pet in the area! read more

Oak Ridge Animal Clinic - Check-in desk - Veterinarians Near Me - Spring, Texas

When I first brought my pets to this clinic, the doctors were great, the vet techs were caring, however the front desk service has been up and down. This clinic recently changed ownership and is now a part of a nationwide chain. There is only one doctor that's on staff. The rest of the doctors rotate, like freelance. The front desk has always been lax with customer service, and act as if they could not care less if you were there. Bringing this to management's attention gets you nowhere. They do not care. VCA charges more but at least they are friendly and supportive. read more

I used to take both my dogs to this clinic to see Dr. Bailey and she was so great. recently I had to take my dog here for an abscess because the new vet I use didn't have availability and my experience was horrible with the Dr. when I went to check out I asked for an itemized receipt and saw they charge me $71 for a "comprehensive physical exam" in which the dr never did a physical exam of my pup in front of me so I asked to speak with the dr and he had an attitude with me stating he did the exam in the back and I asked well did everything look good? do you mind if I go get her so you can do the exam in front of me and he rolled his eyes and said sure no problem. when I brought my dog back in for the exam he asked " have you ever considered some training for your dog?" (my dog is very hyper and loves people) I told him no not really I don't have the time to get her in training. he proceeded to tell me well she is a very dominant dog and some training would be good. the way I touch on some areas shouldn't make her make the noises she makes and i just brushed that off. then he told me to sit on the bench and relax so my dog could calm down because if I am standing up the dog may feel like she can't relax. I said I prefer not to sit down I am wearing black leggings and don't want to get the dog hair all over me. he told me 3 additional times after that to sit on that bench.... then he rolled his eyes and said oh my gosh ok drop the leash and stand right there. I stood there with my arms crossed and was watching what he was doing and he said put your arms by your side and fix your posture.....? I did that. already thought that was unprofessional but I did it. then he did something behind my dogs neck and asked if he hurt my dog because she cried out and I responded and told him well I don't know if that hurt my dog and he rolled his eyes and said good grief as in I thought he would intentionally hurt my dog. I'm my opinion, very very unprofessional and rude. overly priced and not sure why you have to pay for a COMPREHENSIVE physician exam when 1. they don't do it in front of you and 2. he only checked ONE of my dogs ear and listened to her heart. that is NOT a comprehensive physical exam... I do not recommend this vet as they are pricey and not nice. rayford animal wellness clinic on rayford is a better vet to take your animals to. highly do NOT recommend this vet. read more

DR. SACHNEIDER IS THE BEST VET AROUND, DOWN TO EARTH, GREAT CUSTOMER SERVICE, explains everything to you about your pet, my dog and cat have been going to him over 10 years. He explains everything, and gives options on food for your animals. He has a lot of patience for you the owner and for the animals. I highly recommend him, the girls at his front desk are very sweet and nice, Top Notch CUSTOMER SERVICE, HIS TECHS are awesome and informative and helpful. read more

I have been a client at this clinic for over 2 years. I was 10 minutes late for an appointment and they wouldn't see my dog even though the place was empty. I will never come back. I was not impressed by their clinic anyway. I was only using them because they were close to my house. Their loss because I have a big network of people and I will tell everyone how terrible they are read more

We have been taking our dogs there for close to fifteen years. Had tried others previously, but these people won the day. Always pleasant, efficient and reasonable. One note, they do not handle emergency care, at least in our experience. But for non-emergency care, they are the best around in my opinion. read more

I was new to the area and I chose this clinic because it was close to my house. Our first few visits were ok. Reason why I'm giving it more then one star. They took care of my dog when he had to have a surgery on his face and did a good job. However that was with a different vet and surgeon. I recently called and said I needed to bring him in for his rabies vaccine, which I was reminded but the groomer not even them, and they made a same day appointment. I was grateful, I show up I tell vet assistant I only want the required vaccines today. She said no problem. I go sit in the waiting room and get on a work call. The vet comes and starts talking to me while I'm on the phone. I was confused as I didn't ask for an exam but I though maybe they just did it anyways without a fee. She quickly tells me my dog is overweight then that she recommends other services. (Blood work) I ask well how much is it and the person in the front tells me the whole fee for today which included a exam I declined, I respond sorry I can do the rest today .... The vet tells me why is it strictly financial ? I was so thrown off guard, it was beyond rude and just because of that statement I will no longer take my dog there. I look at her thinking maybe she would offer I pay later or something but nope just wanted to make me feel like shit that I couldn't pay more then the unexpected $200 I was already paying walking out of there. I wish I knew her name as I didn't because the "exam" was done without me even there and without my knowledge. I hope she realizes that it's not ok to talk to people like that, none of her business to even ask why I would decline another service that day when I said I would come back later! read more

Can't say enough good things about this place! They're really great with my dog and we come to them every time we are in town from NYC. I Just had his teeth cleaned and some extractions done yesterday. They laid everything out with care and took great care of him. Definitely recommend if you're looking for a good clinic in The Woodlands! We will be back :) read more

I just wanted to say, Dr. Grimsley...thank you. My first time visiting this clinic unfortunately ended in having to euthanize my sweet kitty, but this doctor was compassionate the entire way through. I've rescued animals my whole life, so get several in rough condition and have been to many clinics that 'shame' the owners, this doctor is not one of them. My poor baby ended up having renal failure and never once showed symptoms until it was too late. I felt (and still feel) like a horrible owner but the doctor comforted and reassured me through the entire process. I would have done everything for my sweet boy, and yet this doctor never once took advantage of that or gave me false hope. It's not an experience I ever wish to relive, but I'm thankful they made it as painless as they were able to. read more

Love love LOVE this clinic!!! Brought my 15 year old dog here to have her teeth cleaned and with her age I was really nervous about having this done. Everyone we interacted with was so sweet and took the time to explain everything and put my mind at ease. During the procedure the vet called me to let me know about teeth that needed to be extracted. He took the time to explain everything including what the difference in cost would be. They called again to let me know she was awake and doing well and let me know I could pick her up later in the afternoon so they could monitor her a bit longer. When I arrived to get her one of the vet assistants sat down with me to go through the x rays and explain what was done. This is by far the best vet clinic I have ever been to. Highly recommend and will definitely be our family vet :) read more

This place is ran by very rude, and very unprofessional people. My mother has her dog Molley vetted here, and last week she had her yearly exam and heartworm test. I told my mother she should order her heartworm medicine from Walmart Pet Rx, It's cheaper. On 06/13 she recieved a call that her prescription was ready to be picked up. I called them just to see if they could verify the prescription over the phone. The receptionist told me they don't work with any pharmacies. Which you are not working with them, you're just verifying the script over the phone, instead of sending it in. So I asked to talk to a manager, and the manager got on the phone. I said why can't you guys verify the script over the phone its easier? I told her that last 3 vets i took my dog to verified over the phone. She then said I find that hard to believe, which made me pretty ticked. I do not lie and do not like being called a liar. She said the pharmacist has to have the original prescription in their hand, which is a bold faced lie. There is even an option when ordering that ask if you are sending the script in or VERIFYING IT OVER THE PHONE. I said don't call me a liar, she said she didin't call me a liar. I said yes you did, just not those exact words. I did raise my voice, she said don't yell at me, I said don't call me a liar and I won't. We went round and round, I finally had enough and said you're a rude nasty woman and hung up. The next day I went to pick up the script, and I informed the receptionist why I was there. She was just as rude as the manager. She kinda rolled her eyes got up and said, I have to get my manager, she doensn't know if she is going to do it after yesterday. I said you have to be kidding me. So the manager comes up, and I asked her if she is going to give me the prescription. She then says I don't know who you are, you're not on the account, you need to have the acount holder add you to the account. She is just someone on a power trip because she's the "MANAGER" trying to use and abuse her power, because I called her out for calling me a liar, and to not let me have the prescription. If any of my employees called one of my guest a liar, they would be walked right out the door, real quick, manager or not. She said I never said those words. I said saying that you find something hard to believe is pretty much calling someone a liar. A pink headed lady walked up and started listening to our argument. We went round and round again, I told her I was going to report her, She said to who, all rude. I said you'll see. She said I'm going to report you too, to the cops for harassment. I said you do what you gotta do. I finally said are you going to give me the script or not? She then handed it to me, and said don't come here again. I said we are not planning on it. I was walking out the door I turned around and said bye and walked out the door to my car. I'm in my car, have the car started, and trying to leave. Here she comes walking up to my car saying something, followed by pink haired lady. THEY FOLLOWED ME OUT TO MY CAR. She was trying to instigate something is what she was trying to do. I rolled down the window and she says do you have something to say, you mouthed something when you were leaving, (Which I said bye.) I was livid, so i called her a name, she repeated it and I said yes you're that. Pink headed lady said sir you need to leave. I said I WAS leaving and AM STILL trying to leave, when you guys FOLLOWED me out to my car. They went back inside and I left. My mother called me shortly after, and said the managaer had called her. Said she was calling the cops, just to inform them of me. She says she's not going to press charges. Which is absolutely hillarious because I did't break any laws. We had an argument, and yelling is not harassment. My mother thinks she said she fears for their safety, 1. I never said or did anything threatening, and 2. If she was so concerned for their safety, why would they follow me out to my car? I would NEVER, EVER bring any of my animals here. I would not even recommend this place to my worst enemy. They have very, very rude people working here, horrible customer service, and they are way, way overpriced. I'm telling you, SAVE YOURSELF THE HEADACHE AND MONEY AND GO ELSEWHERE. I take my dog to RAWC or Texas Litter Control. They have way better prices, and I have never had to deal with rude nasty people like this place. read more

Not sure why the negative reviews but I'm here to state other wise. I absolutely love this place and everyone that works here. I've been taking my English Bulldog here for 5 months now for all his puppy shots etc and I've got nothing but great service. The girls that work here are super sweet and Dr. Schneider is a very nice and knowledgeable veterinarian. I picked him because he has experience with English bulldogs and he's great with our dog. Prices for an office are reasonable too compared to the vet I used to take my other dog to back in San Diego. VERY reasonable. I absolutely recommend Oak Ridge Animal Clinic. read more

Oak Ridge Animal Clinic - Meatball and his BFF Sophie the chihuahua :) - Veterinarians Near Me - Spring, Texas

Dr Schneider has been taking care of my dogs for years now, even put down my lab buddy here. They were so gentle with him before and after and very sincere with their words. I couldn't recommend a better clinic for your dogs. if dr Schneider is not there his lead vets below him are awesome as well. I recommend these guys to everyone I know my mother even drives down from Austin just to have her pom's teeth cleaned and scheduled appointments. I've never sat in the waiting room more than 5 min and we board our English bulldog and pom here for a week at a time sometimes. There boarding facility is great they get walked three times a day and fed twice. I love oak ridge animal clinic. Luke read more

Killed my friends 2 year old healthy dog with a simple neuter procedure. Vet was non responsive after notified that dog died of internal bleeding after being rushed to the emergency room same day. Vet is not being forthcoming about what really happened at the clinic. No young, healthy dog should die of INTERNAL bleeding after a simple neuter. read more

Dr. Schneider is fabulous. He takes as much time as needed with each of his patients. I have 3 animals that I take to Oak Ridge. The staff is wonderful. Dr. Holter is the other vet that I request to see when Dr. Schneider is unavailable. We have had to have 2 major surgeries on 2 of my fur babies and I get updates every hour and they always call and check on them for a few days after the surgery. This is a great place and the staff truly cares about your animals. read more

For me, the only downside for this place is that it is located on the feeder road of 45, so it isn't so convenient for a pre-appointment potty for my pup. Otherwise, zero, and I mean zero complaints. I recently moved my pup to this practice from another one in Spring that charged too much and didn't see to show any affection toward my pup, and I could not be happier. Dr. Schneider is fantastic and spent probably 25 minutes with us, going over the options for treating chronic allergies with my bulldog. The staff is great as well and actually seems to love my dog - quite a change from a place called My ...... Vet. The prices are more than reasonable, I think I paid about $100-150 less for this visit than with prior vets. My go to, and I will recommend them for ANYONE looking for a reasonably priced vet with fantastic doctors and staff that truly care about you and your pup. read more

I brought my cat to Oakridge Animal Clinic. He was limping on one of his paws. The clinic charged me over $600 to X-ray and put a splint on his leg. The Vet told me to leave it on for 7 to 10 days, then I needed to bring him back and have the splint changed. I just returned home with my pet and apparently something was done wrong, because now my pet will not even walk on that paw and has two open sores on it. The veterinarian was unavailable to speak to, so I have no idea whether or not my pet was treated with an antibiotic for the open sores. The tech could not give an explanation as to how this happened. My pet is in far worse shape than when I brought him in 2 weeks ago. And it cost me a total of nearly $900. I won't be back. read more

Gosh, so thankful for these guys. I was recommended this vet clinic from a friend. We were using critter fixer prior but none of our pets had any serious problems. Well, one of my dogs ended up needing some teeth pulled and they were so good with her! She's a nervous wreck but they were so patient and caring and now Mia is even more energetic and happy after they took good care of her mouth. Now my other pup, that we got from MCAS was so so sick. We took her in for a puppy checkup to critter fixer first and they told us everything was ok and then we took her to these guys because we knew she wasn't, the vet started treating her right away for an upper respiratory infection and told me to keep a close eye on her til Monday and I am so glad she did because Opal ended up with a bad case of pneumonia and wasn't looking like she would make it another day. If it were not for these guys I don't think Opal would be here. I love how fast and responsive they are. Fair pricing. And super kind staff. They got clients for life! read more

Staff is great! We just moved down to the Houston area and the staff made the transition for our dog quick and easy. We appreciated the signed welcome card and check up call after a procedure our needed to have done. read more

My dog never had a work-up after abnormal liver lab results x two office visits. Now has liver cancer with metastasis and 6-12 months to live! read more

This is a fantastic place to take your animals. My dog became very sick with an autoimmune disorder which is very fatal and Dr. Schneider was super helpful, answered all of my questions and he really made me feel like he cared about my dog and her life. (BTW SHE SURVIVED!) All of the staff at this veterinarian office are very sweet and caring girls. I would never go to another vet after experiencing the fabulous customer service here. read more

Very attentive and knowledgeable care for the babies. Spacious waiting room... not too many extra frills to try to up sell.

The folks at Oak Ridge Animal Clinic took great care of my 3 month old Yorkie puppy, Porsche. I could not find another veterinary office that would see her in the area but those guys took her. They made time to see her knowing the situation was very urgent and did not charge me an emergency fee either. Of this I am grateful since my funds were limited and needed to go on her treatment. When I got her back from a lady who exposed her to Parvo she was very sick with this nasty disease, vomiting and terrible diarrhea. She had stopped eating and drinking water and I knew I had to rush her to a veterinarian immediately. I called many of the local veterinary clinics, 3 different Banfields in Petsmart and they all turned her away with the exception of these guys. And these guys came through for her. They worked with me on my budget and helped her out too. They gave her the medicine she needed to get better. And even went out of their way to give me a free box of Probiotics when I could not afford them. It truly made a difference in her recovery. Thank you Dr. Vickie for your kindness and unlimited generosity! She is truly an animal lover in the deepest sense of the word. I would recommend this clinic to anyone who is looking for a caring animal clinic in this area. read more

I couldn't disagree more with the negative review. I have been taking my dogs and cat to Dr. Schneider for approximately six years and couldn't be more pleased. He has always recommended to "start small" in terms of testing and medications so as not to expend unnecessarily, is extremely knowledgeable and, if he is not sure of something, will research it or call someone who does know the answer. He is respectful and supportive of my vaccine opinions and feeding protocol, even though both are outside the conventional recommendations. His staff, also, has always gone above and beyond. I tried several vets before Oak Ridge and have found the practice where I will stay. read more

Horrible experience.. I was speaking to a Receptionist the previous day, that sounded like she knew exactly what she was doing.. I was tricked in to thinking my bill would be around 6-8 hundred for the teeth cleaning & extractions.... Well, when they told me the price, I almost fainted! Not only was the Receptionist team confused, but they acted like they had no idea who spoke with me! That's how the get you! I then spoke with the manager I believe her first name was Jennifer. Not only was she dramatic, but had an awful attitude! She will be the reason I will not go back there! (And prices as well) read more

They seem to always want to do unnecessary lab testing. When you ask what the lab test are for the ladies at the front can not answer your questions. They seem clueless. They seem to always are charging for every little thing. I don't recommend them!!!! read more

My 11 year old Yellow Lab has been a patient since I got her when she was 5 years old. She's had great medical care. Her previous owner (my daughter) never boarded her for fear she wouldn't like being left. The first time I boarded her at ORAC she loved it and the rest is history! When I drop her off, she goes with them and never looks back! When I stop by to pick up her meds, she barks at me because I don't take her in to visit! The staff is great with her and good to her. read more

Have been bringing my dogs here for the past five years. Love the service and their prices seem fair. Dr. Schneider is great!

I'm going to look for a new veterinarian tomorrow. I was going to adopt a rescue dog but apparently they don't keep records very well at Oak Ridge Animal Clinic and when the adoption agency called they stated that I have not taken my cat in since 2007. I'm still trying to figure out how I have a prescription from last year with their name on it. They charge way too much as well but they won't be getting my money anymore. read more

Brought my new puppy in for her first visit. They made her so comfortable that she wasn't scared at all. Their prices are reasonable for this area and they asked me questions and actually listened to my answers and answered all of my questions as well. My mother brings her pets here as well and we love them. The entire staff is knowledgeable and helpful. Thank you Oak Ridge Animal Clinic for being awesome. read more
