Have gone to Plaza Vet for over 10 years. Have never had a bad experience taking care of my 2 dogs and 1 cat. The techs are excellent. Last time I took cat he got upset in carrier and made a mess. Tech said no problem, and took carrier, cleaned it and provided a new clean towel in the bottom.
Dr's Ast and Carron seem to really care about your pet. They also both seem to have the experience and knowledge to help with the health of your pet.
If there is a procedure they feel is appropriate for treatment of your pet they are upfront about what the cost will be before doing so you do not get

Dr. Ast and Dr. Carron have taken excellent care of both my Golden's - about 15 years worth of care in total. Honestly, I don't have a preference which doctor I see as both are wonderful! They are compassionate, caring, don't push services and treatments that aren't totally necessary and are very upfront about costs of services if they might be expensive. All the Tech's are great too! Very knowledgeable, helpful and true animal lovers! I highly recommend Plaza Veterinary Hospital!

We have had a great experience with Plaza Veterinary. Dr. Ast has been taking care of our dog for years, and he is always very thorough and takes the time to explain everything and answer questions. I have always appreciated that he always spends a good amount of time with us, never rushed, and has been available to talk us through things even when we've called from out of town.

This is the best vet I have ever been to by far. I moved far away (over an hour) and tried to find a new vet. No one compares and I still take the drive to go back to them. You can tell everyone there genuinely loves animals and actually cares. The vet, Dr. Carron, is so thorough, and makes sure you understand everything that is being said. He takes his time and actually cares about the animals. They don't try and push hundreds of dollars of testing at one time, just what they think might be needed (if any), or suggest other things if necessary. I don't care how far I have to drive,

We have been taking our cats here for 18 years. Everyone is very caring, and Dr. Ast and Dr. Carron spend tons of time talking through problems. Our cat needs euthanasia and despite being short handed this week they are coming to my home. Both vets are well versed in feline diseases and open to my seeking advice from Facebook support groups. I am very happy to have them as part of my team.

I have been taking my pets to Plaza for nearly 40 years because I trust their knowledge and their care. The staff all know my animals by name, and make us all feel welcome. While I usually see Dr. Carron, I have also had my pets seen by both Dr. Ast and Dr. Adams. They are all three caring and compassionate doctors and, frankly, I don't understand some of the other reviews. I have, and continue, to trust all three of them with my furbabies lives.

We have been adopting shelter dogs since 2002 and have consistently worked with the vets at Plaza to keep them healthy and happy. Everyone at Plaza is very kind and helpful. The vets are very knowledgeable and take time to explain everything in detail and answer questions. I highly recommend their services.

We went to this vet twice before we found another one in the area. The first time we saw Dr. Carron, and he was good with our group (we have 3 dogs).
On the second visit, we saw Dr. Tracy Adams. This was the visit that caused us to never want to come back in again. Our Shar Pei/American Bulldog mix had some swelling/fluid in her hocks. She has always had this swelling that goes up and down off and on (ever since we got her as a puppy and she is 7). She has seen 3 different vets (due to us moving to different states) and we have mentioned it to all of them, and they have seen her when there

After having bad experiences with other veterinarians, my husband and I decided to try Plaza Veterinary Hospital based on the two positive Yelp reviews posted... and Yelp did not steer me wrong!
Over the course of two years, I have never had a negative experience. Their staff are kind, polite, and clearly love animals. The technicians and assistants are knowledgeable and GREAT at customer service, which can be hard to find these days. It is reassuring to see them handle my dogs as if they were their own- my dog had to have a number of shots, and they kept him calm by talking to him and petting

This is simply an outstanding vet. My dog has unfortunately a very lengthy vet history and I've been to several vets in both Texas and here. My dog was jokingly referred as "The million dollar dog" at one place, it was all in good fun.
I've only met with Dr Ast but he really impressed me. During the first visit he noticed that something was wrong with one of her legs, one of the vets at a different clinic concluded she had arthritis but it turned out that Dr Ast was correct and she actually had a torn ACL. I've also taken her a bunch of times due to urinary tract infections

The best of the best!
How many people can say they LOVE going to their vet's office? Our family definitely can!
I trained and fostered two service dogs and the trio of veterinarians here: Dr. Carron, Dr. Ast and Dr. Adams are top notch.
My experience with these vets go back to the beginning of 2010, when Dr. Carron greeted Gucci and I for our very first visit (Gucci was my first dog ever). He took the time to tell me basics about taking care of a dog AND the importance of training. He spent a good 45 minutes with me to make sure I understood everything- so kind and patient. Every time
